Bio

I am currently in my final semester of the Marriage and Family Counseling Graduate program at Regis University. I have a great passion for working with families, couples, and children to process inter-generational trauma, expand on emotional regulation, and work with my clients on their healing path through a systemic and intrinsic lens. I am currently an intern at a non-profit agency based in Denver and work with Medicaid based clients. Working with these families and individuals has been the greatest honor of my life and I am excited to continue this work post-graduation into my career. Leadership and advocacy are aspects of this program that I have exemplified in my time as the student representative of this MFT program and I will continue this advocacy through community-based work as I expand my practice.
