Have you found it difficult to cope lately? Are you struggling to get through each day? Far too often we struggle internally, not knowing where to turn. I believe that we all need an opportunity to understand ourselves, our experiences, and our relationships with greater clarity. I want to help you become a better problem solver no matter how big or small your problems are.

My approach to therapy hinges on finding what works for you as an individual. This takes a lot of honesty and courage about the things with which you struggle. My commitment to my clients is to help them see these dynamics more clearly from a place of clarity, dignity, & respect and empower them towards a life that feels more meaningful and fulfilling. I have a strong focus on relationships. This includes the connections we have with meaningful people in our lives as well as the relationship we have with ourselves. Naturally, topics such as belonging, accountability, and shared experience tend to be important conversations for us.

Today's professionals are often challenged by the myth of perfectionism, 24/7 work schedules, and having a side hustle. All to frequent, people are wiped out by balancing a fulltime job, family commitments, and escalating economic demands. In the midst of this doing, many have stretched themselves emotionally, psychologically, and physically without adequately supporting their own need for restoration. In fact, without mental wellbeing, healthy coping mechanisms, rest, and healing practices; our minds and bodies experience exhaustion. This type of mental and physical fatigue can lead to increased stress, anxiety, and burnout.

I specialize in working with individuals who have suffered traumatic childhoods (sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, neglect, domestic violence) or traumatic experiences in adulthood and are in need of trauma-informed therapy. Symptoms include difficulty trusting others, feeling terminally alone, experiencing overwhelming emotions, a fear of abandonment or engulfment, experiencing flashbacks, feeling worried and anxious about bad things happening, struggling with body dysmorphia or disordered eating, engaging in self-harm, substance abuse issues, feelings of persistent hopelessness, suicidality, or feelings of unworthiness.

We specialize in helping individuals and families with long-term healing and recovery from addiction, behavioral compulsions, mental health challenges, and other acute, chronic and relapsing illnesses. We practice Invitational Intervention®, ARISE® Continuing Care with Intervention, which is Evidence-Based and proven to be effective. We match the Certified ARISE® Interventionists to the specific needs of the client and the family and are well connected to the best treatment centers across the country. We offer consultation, case management, safe transportation across transitions (geographic, family relationships and emotional), coaching, companionship (sober and mental health companions), placement and treatment advice and intervention.

The desire to be connected to others is innate, and yet we sometimes find ourselves alone, hopeless, sad, scared, and angry. I believe that being connected to ourselves and others is part of the human experience, and recovery from symptoms that interrupt our ability to live our lives to the fullest is possible. I have over 20 years of experience working with individuals who struggle with issues related to depression, anxiety, trauma and addiction. I believe change and insight are possible, and freedom from pain and suffering is attainable.

Providing help throughout Colorado - Teletherapy and in person at Birch Psychology Life is hard, and none of us can do it alone. We all get tired of making the same mistakes and feeling stuck. Ever hear anyone say "It's not your fault?" It could be the way your brain operates - ADHD, gifted, creative. That can impact how we think, feel, act and react in our current lives. Whether you are searching for the first time, or after several tries, now is the time to do the deep work. You deserve to know and live a different experience. Appointments available some evenings - and Saturdays through Birch Psychology. Let's talk.

You want someone who gets you, who can put words to things you’ve been feeling, who can break it down in a way you understand. You want someone who will accept you as you are without judgment, and yet hold you accountable to your higher self, your greater good. You don't want to have to explain who you are to someone who doesn't get it, while you're trying to get help from them. You want to side-step the microaggressions, unpack the internalized oppression, so you can love yourself and be the BOSS you were meant to be.

Are you feeling stuck in a painful place in your life? I use results oriented techniques to help you grow through your pain and become more authentic and vital in your life. I am a compassionate man with over 35 years of experience helping people grow into their potential. I can help you live according to your life's deepest values. I have worked with hundreds of couples in all stages of conflict. Please come in and and request a copy of my booklet: "The Care and Feeding of Your Relationship." It includes 30 practices for promoting loving connections.

I offer a dynamic approach to mental health care using holistic, body-mind integrated therapeutic techniques. I believe that often individuals need support to clear what's blocking our natural ability to navigate our lives from our own truth and that each of us have instinctive abilities to heal ourselves. I can partner with you to identify and activate your inner strengths and authentic self. I provide counseling in a safe environment and my clinical focus builds upon clients' existing strengths and aliveness. In office or video counseling available.

I practice as a contemplative psychotherapist. I believe in the basic goodness of all people and join together with clients to reconnect that basic goodness back into their conscious life. I assist individuals, couples, families, and groups in finding their next steps. I know that transformation is possible and healing can take place even under the most dire situations, feelings, and ways we are conditioned to think and act. I am slow paced and create an atmosphere of warmth, trust, and safety. I am available mornings, late afternoon and early evenings Monday through Thursday.
