Practice
A therapist who will meet you where you are — and help you move.
Hi, I'm Colleen. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and trauma specialist based in Pasadena. For 16 years, I've worked with adults who are carrying things that are genuinely hard — and who are ready, or even just a little bit curious, about what it would feel like to set some of it down.
My approach is collaborative, direct, and grounded in evidence-based care. You'll leave sessions with real tools, not just insight. I specialize in family trauma, complex PTSD, anxiety, OCD, and self-harm — and I bring genuine warmth and zero judgment to all of it.
