How I can help
I provide support for couples, caregivers, and people facing cognitive change — in therapy, in coaching, and in the everyday work of caring for someone you love.
Couples therapy — including, but not limited to, couples navigating dementia or cognitive change
Therapy for cognitive change & a new diagnosis — for you or someone you love
Caregiver & family support — including 70-minute parent-child sessions
Coaching, nationwide — for relationships and caregiving, wherever you are

Getting started
1. Book a free 15-minute conversation — tell me what's bringing you in.
2. We'll make a plan together — therapy in Colorado, or coaching anywhere in the U.S.
3. Begin — ongoing support, at your pace.
No pressure, no commitment — just a conversation about what's bringing you in and whether we're a good fit.
This work is personal
I'm a licensed clinical psychologist and researcher. My research on how we recognize the people we love — featured in The New York Times — became a book on dementia, identity, and relationships, coming May 2027 from New Harbinger. I bring both the science and a deep human understanding of what it means to love someone who is changing.
