Trauma Focused Therapists in 80121

I recognized the strength and courage in each one of my clients. I strive to create a nonjudgemental, empathic therapeutic setting where clients feel safe and validated. I am passionate about helping people who are struggling with grief and loss, trauma, depression and anxiety. Often, loss is traumatic. Through trauma work, the pain from traumatic loss lessens and a sense of purpose is restored. We live in a stressful, busy world, and life can feel overwhelming and affect relationships. My practice also focuses on stress management, mindfulness skills and repairing relationships. I see adults, adolescents/teens and their families. I offer free 60 minute consultations.

At times in life we may find ourselves struggling to understand and manage overwhelming emotions and unhealthy patterns. As a trauma-informed, EMDR certified therapist I help clients create more meaningful lives by increasing self-awareness and reconnecting with values. In a warm, collaborative, non-judgmental environment I support clients in developing the skills and resources needed to move toward the things that matter most in life. I believe in your unique and powerful potential for growth and I offer a safe, compassionate space conducive for change. It would be an honor to accompany you on this transformative journey!

Note: all sessions are online. Welcome, and thank you for taking the first steps towards healing. I chose this line of work to provide others with the skills they need for walking their life path with their heads held high and love in their hearts. At some point we are all given difficult, transformative opportunities. I would be grateful to assist in honoring life's painful experiences and integrating them as they transform you into something greater. As a yoga teacher, therapist, and spiritual seeker who specializes in working with women I use healing modalities that shift the mind, body, and soul.

I believe we have the answers to our questions and issues within ourselves. As a therapist, with 20 years experience, my role is to help you unveil these answers. I want to help you work on issues related to trauma, grief and loss, addiction, mental illness, life transitions, and life coaching. People I've worked with describe me as authentic, sincere, and compassionate. I understand from my own experience-and those whom I've worked with--what suffering and struggle mean and how debilitating it can be. I'll help you work through your issues so you can live a more meaningful and satisfying life.

Currently doing Tele-therapy, but back in-person starting March 1st 2020. -- The heart of Being Alive Counseling is to journey with you through everyday issues, as well as deeper addictions and trials, towards wholeness and healing. Counseling is not an attempt to fix all of your problems but to journey through them together. Whatever is making you believe that life is not good (be it depression, life transition, a trauma, marital problems), Being Alive Counseling believes you can return to your source of joy and meaning. We love to help in life transitions, to clean up the mental mess and believe it can be good again!

I provide quality short- or long-term psychotherapy for adolescents and adults. My primary emphasis is on the individual in the context of their relationships with others.

With a focus on client strengths and empowerment, I seek to help you experience healing and growth in your emotional, spiritual, and/or relational lives.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 28 years of experience. My areas of expertise include depression, anxiety, panic, trauma, eating disorders, self-injury, relationship issues and identity development. I primarily work with adolescents and adults providing individual, family and couples psychotherapy. All of my training and clinical work is grounded in evidenced-based research. I am trained in Mindfulness-Based Therapies, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR Level-II, Exposure Therapy, and the Safe Alternatives approach.

I enjoy working with people of all ages and from all walks of life. I enjoy helping them find solutions to whatever challenges life is presenting them with. For some people, this may mean that they need only a few sessions, or what I call a"minor tune-up", before they are back on course with their lives. For others, this may mean more in-depth therapy to help find solutions to problems that have persisted over many years. And yet for others, they may not have any problems at all to solve per se.

At the Catalyst Center, we believe in delivering the highest quality of care. Our founder, Dr. Erin Jacklin, hand-selected our team of therapists and created a supportive working environment. This means that we can be at our best in order to help you achieve your best. We work hard to match you with the therapist most equipped to support your specific needs because we know that the relationship between the client and therapist is powerful. We are passionate about helping our clients to thrive and create sustainable change in their lives.

Therapy is a safe place to explore challenges in our lives & find strengths that we never knew we had. It has the potential to lift us out of our rut so that we can finally make the changes we've longed for. Whether you are working to decrease your anxiety, unmasking and living authentically, changing careers, exploring your gender or sexual identity, or trying to change your relationships, therapy can be a great place to get a fresh perspective & face these challenges with a champion by your side. My own identity as a multiracial, queer, gender nonconforming therapist enables me to understand clients who feel like outsiders.

I specialize in helping adults who have not been helped by past treatment, who have problems feeling connected, or who have long-standing struggles with trauma, depression, anxiety, or relationships. Currently I have openings for Group Therapy (not for individual or couples). I am happy to refer you to trusted colleagues if you would like to chat about that. All our therapists track how effective we are - and we publish our results. That's what makes The Colorado Center for Clinical Excellence different. I invite you to read about my approach, results, fees, articles, and resources at thecoloradocenter.com.

Healing is a healthy process our body knows how to do. Sometimes we just need support to find the process. Therapy can be this safe place to explore where we need healing in our lives. I believe your past does not define your future. I can help with emotional or physical trauma, grief and loss, healing from fear, anxiety or depression, and painful relationship changes. We can work to restore empowerment, rejuvenating a sense of hope and peace and create the vitality and life force in your being. Healing also comes with connecting with yourself and with others, developing healthy boundaries and compassion for yourself.

Whether you’re suffering from an eating disorder or body dissatisfaction, struggling with the effects of trauma, or need support during a difficult time, you are probably here with the hope for healing and a more balanced and fulfilling life. Perhaps you are ready for change, but the prospect of addressing painful experiences, trauma, or what underlies an eating disorder sounds overwhelming and scary. You are not alone, and there is hope. I appreciate collaboration, honesty and some humor! My style is warm, supportive, and authentic. It would be my honor to support you on your journey.

Are you a woman who looks like you have it “all together”, yet deep down you feel like something is wrong? You’re exhausted from white-knuckling it through your days, insecure about yourself and your relationships. You feel the weight of your past but feel scared to take a closer look. If you let yourself slow down, you’d realize you don’t even recognize yourself anymore. One thing is sure- you can’t keep living like this. You’re ready to feel better. You’re ready to have more compassion for yourself. Most of all, you’re ready to heal from your past and deepen your connections with yourself and others.

Welcome! I commend you for having the courage to seek support to make something better in your life. I've found that it can make a life-changing difference to feel heard, understood, and empowered as we face fears, painful circumstances, and daunting challenges all while pursuing our greatest hopes. I tend to help my clients with issues related to self-esteem, anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, grief and loss, relationship issues and major life transitions. I also want to help expand access to counseling so I partner with organizations that allow me to accept multiple insurance plans.

Whether trauma and co-occuring concerns has affected you or someone you love, the process of healing can feel overwhelming and even frightening. Regardless of what happened and where you find yourself now, I believe everyone is capable of growth. A safe, supportive, and authentic space is essential for clients to move past those negative thoughts, beliefs, and patterns that keep them stuck in anxiety, destructive behaviors, shame, and sadness. I've found that warm support, while also challenging people to look within, leads to healing and connection with the best version of themselves.

My ideal client would be someone who has reached the point where they realize that what they have been doing is no longer working. They understand that it is time to be open to and consider the benefits to making positive changes in their life. This person is ready to examine the areas in their life that have become blind spots, and are willing to address those blind spots in a safe, compassionate and fruitful way.
