Hello, I’m MARYJANE
I am passionate about the change that can happen through the therapeutic process and feel deep joy over getting to walk alongside someone in their process of healing. I believe in empowering those I work with to rewrite their own narrative through creating a safe space for non-judgmental, honest and hopeful conversation that ultimately reflects back to them their inherent value and worth.
I am a Chicago native and a lover of all things art and creativity. I grew up with a large Italian/Irish family (that all lived on the same street!) and have a passion for family, quality time and, of course, good pasta. I moved out to Denver for my Master’s and fell in love with the city and stayed since. I have a sweet dog that fills a significant amount of my time, but I also love to paint, spend a day in the mountains, or go to a concert or show.

I received my Bachelor’s degree in Fine Art and Psychology from Judson University which allowed me to explore both my passion for creativity and art. While in school studying art, I realized what I loved about it was the artist, or the personhood expressed; the reason for why and how the artist chose to express in this way lead me to pursue my degree in psychology and eventually to get my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Denver Seminary in Littleton. I am deeply interested in the ‘why’ of a person’s story and believe everyone is capable of writing a new narrative for themselves even through trauma and struggle. I am trained in Experiential Play Therapy and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as Attachment-Based Parent-Child Interaction Therapy.
