Change, hardship, pain, and grappling with the unknown are inevitable parts of life, but learning how to navigate these experiences and use them in ways that can contribute to your personal growth, meaning, and fulfillment is my goal as your therapist. Everyone’s journey to healing looks different and I look forward to joining you on yours.

Hello! My name is Myranda Hardy, I am a licensed clinical social worker with a genuine passion for empowering individuals to live their lives to the fullest. In doing so, I have helped hundreds of people have a deeper sense of connection to their lives and have allowed them to create better relationships and happiness. I have helped people increase their self-compassion, lower anxiety and depression levels, and assist people in a wide variety of adaptive coping skills. When people feel stuck, I have worked with them on gaining traction in their lives and helping them to have fulfilling experiences.

I serve the states of: Colorado, Montana, and Kansas. When struggling with anxiety or stress small tasks, feel like mountains. Activities that used to bring you joy have become similar to your list of chores. A strong support system is crucial, people that care about your well-being and want to see you reach your goals. Therapy can be a powerful addition to your life. It provides a safe space for conversations to flow, in turn promoting validation, skill-building, goal-realization, and emotional-processing. Therapy has the ability to open the door for countless interpersonal and intrapersonal growth opportunities.

I work in the states of Colorado (CO) and Montana (MT) passionately working with teens and adults with anxiety, OCD, Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRB's), and depression find ways to manage their symptoms and live the life they wish to pursue. Being a human is hard. I know you are nervous or self-conscious and I believe in providing you with autonomy and being present for your needs. You don't have to do it alone. I encourage you to advocate for yourself in and outside of our therapeutic relationship. This helps you maintain and continue to build improvement on your progress in our sessions.

Are you or your child, experiencing symptoms of anxiety, panic, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), tics or struggling with a phobia? Perhaps you're having a difficult time sleeping or find yourself worrying about bad things happening or what people think of you? You could be experiencing unwanted thoughts that you are unable to let go of, or fear losing control and something bad happening. You may be struggling to move past something difficult that happened and it’s taking away from your quality of life. Living with anxiety can be crippling, but with evidenced based treatment, symptoms can improve fairly quickly.

People are my passion. After working in the mental health field for the last 15 years, I have learned that everyone has a unique story and circumstances. I love working with clients to embrace this and work through roadblocks that stand in the way of a fulfilled life. Through evidence based practices you have the ability to change and be the best version of you. Needless to say, life is hard.

Have you been struggling with communication with your children and/or other loved ones? Do you feel disconnected or more distant than you would like in your important relationships? Do you worry about how you or your child are coping with challenges, obstacles or life transitions? Developing strong connection and coping skills can be an amazing relief for individuals and for the whole family. I am passionate about supporting children, teens, adults and older adults through challenging times in their lives. Together we can work through current struggles, while building skills and knowledge to help manage future challenges.

Throughout life, we are faced with the task of overcoming challenges and hardships. Whether you have been struggling with mental health concerns for many years or are going through a current life circumstance that is causing you distress, it may be time to seek outside support from a therapist. We will work together in a collaborative manner to create a space where you can focus on gaining a deeper understanding of yourself, increase meaning and fulfillment in your life, and reduce mental health symptoms that might interfere with your well-being.

For many, life has become more challenging than ever before which has inspired people to seek a new path forward. I am passionate about collaborating with you to create the meaningful changes in your life that you desire. I believe in holding space for you by meeting you where you are while we find the path that works best for you.

Do you struggle with self-confidence or anxiety? Have you experienced grief or gone through trauma? Are you going through the adoption process or struggling with your identity as an adoptee? This can all greatly impact our personal and professional lives. It can make us want to retreat, isolate, and see ourselves in a negative light. Doing this, in turn, can lead into potential depression and not feeling like ourselves anymore. Yet, life has so much to offer, and you are here for a reason. You have a purpose and deserve to live a beautiful, happy and fulfilled life where you feel confident and capable of conquering those anxieties.

I am an art therapist, passionate and dedicated, on a transformative journey to help neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, and grieving teens and adults discover their authentic selves through the power of art therapy. I have a deep understanding of the complexities and nuances of identity and experience, and I create a sanctuary where art becomes the language of the soul-a space where colors, textures, and shapes transcend verbal communication. By blending artistic creation with therapeutic techniques, I offer a unique pathway for healing and self-discovery encouraging each person to embrace their true essence amidst life's challenges.
