Hi! I work best with clients who are figuring out who they are, where they belong, and how to navigate stress, relationships, and big life changes. Many of the people I support come from multicultural, multiracial, Indigenous, LGBTQIA+, or immigrant backgrounds, and are looking for a space where all parts of their identity are understood and respected. You might be dealing with anxiety, family pressure, identity questions, or feeling overwhelmed balancing everything. Some clients I work with are also navigating the impact of immigration experiences, acculturation stress, or racial trauma, whether from personal experiences, family history, or systemic challenges. These experiences can shape how you see yourself and move through the world, and you do not have to process them alone. You do not have to have it all figured out. Therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of your experiences, and find ways to move forward that feel right for you. In sessions, we will look at both the deeper parts of your story and practical tools to help you feel better day to day. I often use a mix of approaches, including exploring patterns from your past, building coping strategies, and working on how your thoughts and feelings connect. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in respect for your lived experience. I aim to create a space where you feel safe being fully yourself, no pressure, no judgment, just support as you grow, heal, and navigate this stage of life.

I am committed to supporting college students in navigating the emotional challenges that come with school, relationships, and personal growth. In a safe and non-judgmental space, we’ll explore mindfulness techniques, cognitive-behavioral strategies, and self-compassion to help you build resilience and thrive. Together, we’ll identify patterns in your thoughts and behaviors, develop practical coping skills, and work toward creating a more balanced, fulfilling life. I also specialize in helping college-aged individuals and couples with communication, conflict resolution, and emotional connection, drawing from my training as a Level 2 Couples Clinician by the Gottman Institute. Whether you're navigating personal struggles or relationships, I’ll help you gain insight, strengthen your emotional toolkit, and find lasting solutions. I believe everyone has the potential to grow and thrive, and my goal is to empower you to tap into your strengths. Let’s work together to create a personalized roadmap for success, well-being, and connection during this exciting, yet sometimes challenging, time of your life.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or the pressures of life transitions, I'm here to help. With over 40 years of experience, I work with individuals and couples, centering our work in attachment, relational, and mind-body approaches to help you understand what's holding you back and move toward the life you want. We'll start by identifying goals together and creating a safe space where you can talk openly about your experiences. My approach is collaborative, and grounded— whatever pace you need, we'll work at it together.

Welcome! I am a seasoned therapist with many years of experience working with folks who are struggling with things like finding balance in their lives, managing stress, coping with mood issues (anxiety, depression, etc.) and managing conflicts and/or finding meaningful connections in their relationships with others. Overall, many of us are just trying to find more peace, a greater understanding of ourselves and increased confidence in our ability to manage stressors and life events as they come our way. My hope is to help people identify barriers to progress and develop helpful strategies so that they can feel more content and functional in their every day lives. I would welcome the opportunity to speak with you via a free phone consultation. Feel free to contact me via phone or email to set up an appointment.

Hello! I'm so glad you're taking this step for your mental health. I went to the therapy for the first time while attending college (at USC too!), and it was pivotal for me. I really value working with college students, and genuinely appreciate how much you have to do deal with. Maybe you're struggling with transitions - adjusting to the start of college, or facing the daunting landscape post-graduation. Maybe you can feel all the pressures mounting to the point where you feel paralyzed and burnt out and confused. Maybe you'd like for just one thing - anything - to be taken off your plate, or for the load to be shared somehow. Maybe you're even trying to figure yourself out beyond the story that's been your life so far. I'd like to help make things seem clearer, or kinder, or safer, and I think we can do it together. I offer 45-minute sessions, as well as longer 90-minute sessions, to fit what you might need best. I also offer letters for medical transition, disability, ESA, and can complete return to school forms.

Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues or are simply overwhelmed with all that life is throwing at you, we are here to help navigate things to keep you moving forward. Offering in person and telehealth sessions, our licensed therapists are ready to help you move from a mind full to a mindful way of living.

Does your mind feel like it’s constantly running, overthinking every decision, replaying conversations, or trying to keep up with the pressure to do well in school, relationships, and everything else? College can bring a lot of stress. Many students I work with feel anxious, stuck in their own heads, or overwhelmed by perfectionism and procrastination. You might be juggling coursework, friendships, family expectations, or questions about your future—and it can feel like too much on your own. I’m Ahuva, a licensed therapist who helps college students manage anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, relationship stress, and major life changes. Together, we’ll use practical tools to help you understand what’s getting in your way, build healthier coping skills, and feel more grounded and in control. My style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. You don’t need to show up with the “right” words or have everything figured out. This is a space where you can be honest, slow down, and work through what’s really going on, without judgment. Reaching out for support can feel scary, but you don’t have to navigate these challenges alone. I’m here to help you take that first step and support you as you build confidence, clarity, and a healthier path forward.

We provide therapy services for adults ages 18+ with anxiety, depression, adjustment and adjustment to cognitive concerns (Executive dysfunction, ADHD, learning disorders). We have 2 providers who perform neuropsychological assessment of neurological and developmental disorders including executive dysfunction, attention disorders, neurological disorders, traumatic brain injury and cognitive functioning changes associated with psychiatric diagnoses. Recommendations for specific strategies to improve functioning are created based on the results of neuropsychological assessment. Psychotherapy is also available for ages 17+ for a wide range of mental health and medical adjustment concerns. Executive functioning coaching is available.

I work with you to not just understand what's going on, but also to develop tools to help. Tools to stop panic attacks, tools to manage depression, tools to get organized and figure out what you want in life. We work together to see what works reliably for you. In addition to talking things through, in session and between sessions sometimes you might be writing, sometimes trying a challenging behavior change, sometimes engaging in mindfulness, and sometimes using visualizations. My aim is for you to feel better, and to know what to do to keep feeling better or help yourself if problems resurface. And I try to work efficiently with you, so you are back to your life (and ending therapy) as soon as makes sense for you. Give me a call to set up an initial (free) conversation, at 303-870-9195.

I am most interested in what your unique experience is, and I aim to listen deeply on our road toward understanding. A safe-enough space will help us to transform your patterns of experience that interfere with your ability to be compassionate with yourself, to build meaningful relationships, and to work and play creatively, in other words, to live a fulfilling life.

Each person has a unique experience and healing requires an individualized plan. Healing occurs through a combination of multiple different sources. Therapy can be one tool that can aid in growth that can alleviate suffering. Therapy can be both challenging and rewarding. I believe that a critical component of therapy is a trusting relationship with compassion, feeling heard and seen. Working with someone who you trust to hear your experience and challenge you in positive ways.
