About Summer
Available: Nights and Weekends
As a licensed therapist in Colorado, I am dedicated to providing a steady, supportive space for those navigating the complexities of trauma and life transitions. With the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, I recognize how deeply triggering current world events can be for our veteran community. Whether you are a service member who has deployed to war zones or a first responder facing daily high-stress environments, I am here to walk alongside you.
My therapeutic practice is deeply rooted in a nuanced understanding of individual experience. I specialize in working with veterans, first responders, and individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds, focusing on the silent burdens of attachment, shame, trauma, body image, and personal identity.
I believe healing happens in a collaborative, supportive environment. My goal is to help you explore your experiences with sensitivity and expertise, developing meaningful coping strategies to rediscover your sense of purpose. Together, we will navigate your unique journey of growth and resilience.

- “Summer listens, understands, and helps”
- “Summer is a woman with a lot of experience in mental health - many comments mention this. I just want to say one thing: If you’re a man who thinks he needs a male therapist to understand his issues, think again. Summer helped me realize that mental health has no gender.”

- “I’ve been in therapy for a long time, and honestly I struggled to find the right fit… Until I started working with Summer. She has completely changed my experience and relationship with therapy, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly.<br /> <br /> Summer asks such thoughtful, intentional questions that open up space for real reflection, while also being incredibly nurturing when she delivers constructive feedback. She is tactful, compassionate, and grounded; able to sit with me through difficult, dark moments, yet she shines as a true ray of sunshine when I need it most. I genuinely look forward to our sessions, even on my hardest days.<br /> <br /> What sets Summer apart is how she offers real, practical tools and meaningful goals that I can incorporate into daily life. And she follows up. Always. She is consistent and steady. She makes it tangible to see actual improvement in my well-being and overall quality of life.<br /> <br /> Wholeheartedly, I cannot speak more highly of Summer; her expertise, her genuine care for the people she supports, and her ability to balance empathy with growth-focused guidance make her not only an exceptional therapist, but also an exceptional human being.”
