Mountain living offers us many wonderful benefits, including incredible outdoor opportunities for recreation, clean air, and small-town support and community. Yet the stress of managing work, finances, and family obligations including raising self- sufficient kids can prove to be challenging no matter where we live. To maximize the benefits of mountain life and the opportunities available to us here in Summit County, it’s important to learn how to manage daily stress in a healthy and effective way. As the founder of Mountain Life Counseling & Coaching, I work together with my clients to promote healthy growth and increased wellness through a collaborative, strength-based and flexible approach. I welcome anyone who may be feeling overwhelmed by life stressors that often originate from school, family, peers, work, performance, and the uncertainty of the future.
As the founder of Mountain Life Counseling & Coaching, I utilize current, brief, evidence-based interventions to relieve symptoms, develop emotional intelligence and empower clients to reach their full potential. My focus is to help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths. I achieve this by providing a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing an action plan using the following preferred treatment interventions:
Evidence - Based
Person - Centered

Positive Psychology

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Research shows that the therapeutic relationship is one of the most important indicators for successful treatment outcomes. The right fit is very important and it can take time to find a therapist that works best with your personality and style. In other words, if you don't feel a
sense of connection with your therapist, you cannot build the kind of trust and rapport that is essential for movement through barriers towards lasting change. During our phone consultation, I will give you a sense of my treatment style and let you decide whether my approach fits well with your needs.
