Hi, I’m Mickey, and I too am on a journey. Part of my path is helping others navigate theirs. I understand that creating change can feel overwhelming, especially when life feels like it’s spinning out of control. As a counselor, I am here to help you make sense of your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, offering support and guidance as you explore and transform your life.
My own journey has taken me from New York to Florida and, eventually, to Colorado, where I’ve found a home and purpose in helping others. I graduated from the University of Colorado Denver with a Bachelor's degree in Psychologyand earned my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Adams State University. Along the way, I’ve developed a deep passion for travel, discovering new perspectives, and appreciating the beauty of the world we live in. I bring that sense of curiosity and exploration to my work with clients, believing that healing and growth are a lifelong journey.
As a counselor, my approach is grounded in psychodynamic therapy, which focuses on uncovering unconscious patterns and early life experiences that shape your current thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Through this lens, we’ll work together to explore how your past influences your present struggles, gaining insight that will empower you to create lasting change. My goal is to help you develop the self-awareness, tools, and coping skills you need to move through life’s challenges with confidence and clarity.
Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, or navigating life transitions, I am here to walk alongside you. Together, we will chart your path to personal growth, explore the deeper layers of your emotional life, and develop new ways of approaching the world.
In addition to my work with individuals, I also offer clinical supervision to emerging therapists using a developmental approach. This approach is designed to foster self-reflection, build clinical skills, and support the growth of both the personal and professional aspects of your work as a counselor.

When I finally did see a counselor, I wondered why I hadn’t done it earlier. I wondered if the parts of me that needed help, were the parts of me that kept me from taking action. Clients I have worked with have expressed similar insights about having parts of themselves needing to get something off their chest in a meaningful way in a space that provides empathy, insight, and is judgement free.
Maybe you are noticing life, relationships, anxiety, and stressors are getting in the way of you writing a new story you want to live by. A part of you may be ready to recover from childhood wounds or trauma and together we will find what works best for you to live the life you want most.
I utilize an Internal Family Systems (IFS) approach when working with my clients who are working through life transitions, relationship struggles, and trauma. In addition we can use EMDR to reduce stuck emotions from those struggles. We can explore the aspects of your personality or the way we deal with the world to help our parts work better. Together we can figure out ways to help overcome errors of thinking which create unhelpful patterns and reactions.
My hope is we can find some common ground in the broad variety of life experience. I was a park ranger in college and spent a summer on a helicopter wildlands fire crew. I love to walk and talk outdoors with people which is good therapy. Working for a legacy airline let me and my family travel the world to understand and appreciate the uniqueness of people in many cultures, and understand we all have a particular culture. As a volunteer at a youth home and as a court advocate taught compassion for the hidden challenges many of us face.
I look forward to connecting with you and working together to discover what works best for you to live the life you want.
