"Do you want a life worth living but doubt if it’s possible for you? A seed holds all it needs to become a sunflower, a mighty oak, or a blueberry bush. However, that seed requires the nourishment of good soil, rain, and sunshine. There are so many reasons we find ourselves feeling alone in the world. Whether you're estranged from family, socially marginalized, or just going through something unique, you are like that seed- naturally equipped with what you need for healing and growth. My job, as your therapist, is to provide a strong, healthy, professional relationship rooted in nurturing love and unconditional positive regard. I specialize in helping people recover from trauma, lifelong patterns of painful crisis, and pervasive hopelessness. Contact me to schedule a no-fee trial session and we can test the waters together to see if we have a good collaborative chemistry. "

"I have diverse clinical experience with children and their families in community settings, as well as in elementary and pre-school settings. I also have great experience with helping children navigate developmental disabilities, behavioral and mood disorders, divorce, separation, and stepfamily dynamics. I have worked with many children who have been exposed to trauma including, abuse, neglect, and domestic violence. I believe that involving the family, parents, and other primary caregivers in the therapeutic process provides the best possible resolution for the toughest challenges."

"Why is change so hard? Because we are often not aware of what we do or why we do it. My specialty is diving deeply into the mind and helping you experience change at a fundamental level. This requires no special knowledge or skill on your part, only willingness to explore and an openness to what you might find. Just like your body, your mind knows how to heal itself. My role is to facilitate that process. I provide a safe environment, compassionate feedback, and supportive challenge when needed. I also offer Neurofeedback to improve concentration, sleep, anxiety, and ADHD."

"I specialize in working with children, adolescents and adults in a solution-focused and humanistic approach. With children, parents and child contribute to writing goals, and often work with school counselors and teachers. I am a Registered Play Therapist, and often use play therapy and sandtray to help children express difficult emotions. As a Certified EMDR Therapist, I sometimes use EMDR with those who have had difficult life events or trauma. I also work with adults and seniors -- with EMDR, depression, anxiety and grief."

"I work with individuals, couples, families, and groups around psychosocial and medical health issues. I am a Colorado and Washington State Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and a Clinical Fellow and Approved Supervisor in the American Association of Marriage and Family Therapy. I am passionate about strengthening people through the exploration of family and interpersonal dynamics. The psychosocial conditions I provide treatment for include: addictions, anxiety and depression, abuse and trauma, marriage/relationship issues, health and wellness, spirituality/faith issues, identity development issues, and sexuality. I believe a biopsychosocial-spiritual approach to health is the most comprehensive method of treatment."

"I work with adolescent and adult individuals, couples and families. I am committed to the collaborative therapeutic relationship with individualized compassionate care. I offer a safe environment where confidentiality, trust and respect are paramount. If you have a sense that your past, current or future situation has surpassed your resources to meet your challenges in the way in which you would like, then it is my hope that you are seeking the next step. It is often with deep uncertainty and great courage that this next step happens in the hope that something new will emerge."

"I am very passionate about my work as a Neuropsychologist because I truly enjoy interacting with my patients. Everyone is unique, so learning about and getting to know who each patient is as an individual, is extremely rewarding to me. Having patients share their story with me is a huge honor. I pride myself in my ability to make my patients as comfortable as possible and to ease any anxieties they might have concerning the neuropsychological testing process. My top priority is patient care. I provide follow-up sessions with patients and their families to develop comprehensive, robust treatment plans."

"Do you need assistance to get through a tough time in life? I am here to meet the clients where they are and help them achieve their goals and get to a place that they can be proud of in life. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, so I help couples and individuals get through issues that come up or just to strengthen their bond. I also help people with a variety of other issues that might slow them down from moving on in life, such as anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, or relationship issues among others."

"I specialize in working with children, teens, and parents. I tend to split my time between meeting directly with kids and with their parents, and I focus on using reserach-supported treatments to help my clients improve. I am very collaborative as a therapist and tend to be a pretty relaxed person, so therapy often takes the tone of, "What if we were to try this.... Do you think it might help?" rather than "Follow this strict behavioral protocol." Most of the families I have worked with have found this approach to be a comfortable and inviting way to tackle their problems."

"I am glad you are searching for a therapist to help you with whatever life issue(s) you may be struggling with. Finding someone you feel safe and comfortable with is vital when deciding on a therapist. As part of my practice, I strive to create a secure and nurturing environment where you can share concerns and vulnerabilities while also making progress toward goals and the changes you would like to have happen in your life."

"Are you looking for a change in your life?"

"I am an individual, couple, and family therapist in Fort Collins. I use a combination of evidence based therapy with individuals, couples, and families to create a safe environment to work towards holistic well-being. I believe a holistic, systemic approach best approaches meeting individual mental, emotional, spiritual, relational, physical needs in the context of their relationships. I am committed to collaborating with clients and empowering them to explore their own narrative and relationships throughout the therapy process that leads them on unique journeys of resilience, reconciliation, and restoration."

"I have been working with individuals, couples, families, and children for over 17 years. I primarily use a collaborative, strength-based approach to therapy and specialize in the use of family and couples' therapy, play therapy with children, working with diverse populations, and EMDR. I believe that the majority of people have an internal desire and wisdom that directs them toward healing and changing for the better. Similar to our bodies, the brain naturally knows how to heal given the right conditions. I see my role as a therapist is to help people tap into the resiliency of the human spirit."

"So often the course of our lives are shaped by moments we would not have ever wished for. Moments when loved ones and strangers have ignored or harmed us when what we needed was love and support. Moments when others have tried to make us believe that we aren't valuable, aren't lovable, don't deserve to be safe, and aren't good enough the way we are. Some people do these things on purpose, or because they don't know better, or even because they think they're somehow helping. Regardless of their intent, their impact was pain, and a dimming of the lights of hope that illuminate our future. As a therapist, I help my clients dispel the shadows of the past by rekindling hope for a brighter future. I start all therapeutic relationships with a free thirty minute in person consultation to help us determine if we are the right therapeutic fit for one another. "

"Healing relationships help us overcome challenges. Whether you struggle with eating issues, anxiety, addictions, mood, career or relationship issues, my goal is to help you lean into your strengths and discover the most helpful coping tools for you to thrive. My approach to healing is through mindfulness, dialectical behavior therapy, and interpersonal psychodynamic therapy. I utilize these therapies according to your needs and what works for you to gain peace and satisfaction in your life. I will guide you in managing emotions, improving relationships and cultivating kindness and self-compassion."

"Here at Mind-Ops we focus on one overarching life concept - O.ptimal ... P.erformance... S.olutions.

Whether you are an individual, a team, or a business, we at Mind-Ops can help you attain your greatest potential. We can all be better and that's where our staff come in."

""We cannot undo our old mistakes or their consequences any more than we can erase old wounds that we have both suffered and inflicted, but through the power that memory gives us of thinking, feeling, imagining our way back through time we can at long last finally finish with the past in the sense of removing its power to hurt us and other people and to stunt our growth as human beings." This quote, by Frederick Buechner, speaks to what therapy can unearth. We can't "undo our mistakes" or "erase old wounds." We can live free, healed, courageous lives."

"It can be difficult to take the first steps in sharing your story. I want to help make that easier for you. I work with individuals, couples, and families to help explore the thoughts, feelings, and relationships that may not have been given proper attention in some time. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, loss and grief, conflict, parenting, or any number of issues, I am here to hear your story, help you work through what's brought you to where you are now, and to help work towards where you want to be."

"Are you struggling with feeling sad, angry, worried, or overwhelmed? Perhaps there is a relationship in your life that troubles you, or you are looking to overcome past trauma. You may be concerned about your child, or want help navigating the many challenges of being a parent. I can help you create the life you want and rediscover balance, well-being, and joy. It takes courage to seek help, and I strive to provide an environment of safety, trust and understanding. I believe in the natural ability of each person to heal, grow, and discover their own unique solutions."

"Life's barriers sometimes get in the way of living life as abundantly as we would like. I know that it can be hard to seek help. I would be honored to come alongside you and see if we can find a way to overcome the barriers in life. Using a holistic approach, I will listen with empathy and together identify changes to be made and how to make those changes. Moreover, we will identify other important people in your life, including other health professionals with whom coordinating care will enrich your experience."
