Therapists in Custer County, CO

Do you find yourself shut down, unsure of why you are responding the way you are, suppressing your feelings or feeling like you feel too "much"? Do you struggle in relationships, life or day to day living due to your trauma? Are you unsure of where you belong? I work with people in all walks of life to process unresolved feelings due to trauma. I strive to provide a safe and non judgmental space, in order for you to develop coping mechanisms for trauma symptoms ( anxiety, depression, addiction, etc) and to explore aspects of yourself. I would love to sit down with you and hold space for you as you navigate your journey to healing.

I specialize in children, adolescents and their families. Conflicts within the home, school, or work place contribute to added stress, anxiety, depression and addictive behaviors. Problems adjusting to new family dynamics can be expressed by irritability, anger, or withdrawal. I will work with you to improve relationships between siblings, between children and parents, or between friends and colleagues. If your family is struggling with possible addictions and related issues, I have experience that may help. When you leave the first session, you will have some coping strategies to improve your situation. Take some positive steps towards a better future today.

Have you tried everything to make your life better and it doesn't seem to work, or it works for a short time and things go right back to the way they were? Have you used alcohol or drugs to medicate uncomfortable feelings to feel normal, but never really feel normal no matter how hard you try? When we have suffered life-altering disappointments we tend to feel that we are different from others. When we try to connect with others, sometimes it doesn't work out as we anticipated. These disappointments can make us feel there is no hope for us.

I work with people who struggle with substance use and trauma, stress and depression, helping clients to get unstuck from old patterns that cause unhappiness. My experience has been that clients find the right answers and resolve their own issues, once they are able to talk through their struggles and look at them in a different way. My clients may struggle with addiction, anxiety, or trauma - we work for them to be able to "get out of the rut" they've been stuck in. I like to have a good feel for my clients' lives and emotions, and that only comes from really being present, so I work almost exclusively face-to-face.

Great news! I can now be contacted not only at Sondermind but Headway too. All of these problems can change with specialized approaches. It's hard to believe that I've been working as a social worker for 27 years. I still enjoy my work today as I did 27 years ago. I feel I love it so much because everyone is different. I also love to see people have the best life they can. You can change the way you think and how you feel by learning and using new coping skills. I focus on adults with depression, trauma, anxiety or addictions using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Behavior Modification and Person Centered Therapy.

Are you struggling to find meaning, purpose, or healing in your life? Has something happened you need to resolve? Looking for better ways to cope or have the things you have been doing stopped working? Struggling with addiction, depression, or anxiety? Life's challenges often times require fresh eyes and genuine support untethered by judgment or relationship complications. Let's walk shoulder to shoulder through this together to find gentle resolution of trauma, PTSD, or grief. I work with adult men and women to find emotional regulation and balance to live their best lives and find peace.

I've been working with children since 1987. I began as a first grade teacher, Pre-K teacher and then yoga instructor. After raising my children, I received my master's degree in mental health counseling. My passion is helping families live more functionally. I am keenly aware of the challenges that occur for children during and after divorce. I specialize in helping children of parent's in high conflict divorces. I utilize a variety of techniques tailored to meet your child's needs.

We specialize in empowering you to meet the many challenges life throws your way with fortitude, so you may become the person you envision. Our staff is highly trained in several therapeutic techniques, so we can tailor a plan for your specific needs and circumstances. Our goal at Revival is to strengthen each of our clients to achieve their own goals, whatever they may be. We’re here to help improve relationships, and build competence, confidence, resilience, and productivity. We are committed to your overall best interest. Every. Single. Time. We have the utmost respect for you as a client.

Its time to put in that work for a successful 2024. Are you struggling with motivation or finding it difficult to accomplish your goals? Have you developed bad habits or feel stuck? I work with people to achieve peak performance. Through my model, the Spire of Performance , I help to people to define the areas of their life they want too see maximum potential and then we develop a plan in 6 different domains. I believe that physical health is closely tied to mental health and incorporate wellness interventions into every treatment plan. I offer yearly mental health check-ups and free phone/video consultation.

For the past 20 years, I have been a successful clinician in the areas of relationships, trauma, anxiety, depression, codependency, family of origin issues, substance abuse and couple challenges. Working on change is difficult and I'm here to help facilitate each client to become their authentic self. I am licensed in two states (California and Colorado) and can meet in person or via teletherapy, depending on where you live. With trauma work, however, meeting in person is the only choice I offer.

I have worked as an addiction counselor and mental health counselor for over 33 years. I work with adolescents and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, addiction, parenting struggles, codependency, behavioral problems, grief and loss, PTSD. My goal is to find out what works best for you, to explore solutions and to provide tools and strategies to make lasting changes. I provide education, explore feelings and provide alternatives to the destructive patterns that sometimes develop in our lives.

My primary interest is to be a catalyst for positive change in your life and to help you work through the individual challenges that keep you from experiencing the kind of life you desire and deserve. Empowering you to work toward the dreams and goals that are important to you is my intention. I have experience and training in working with addictions, depression, anxiety, men's issues, trauma, and helping individuals build relationship skills and enhancing their self-esteem. Whenever possible, I like to help you early-on to assist you in establishing your vision for the future, then we will work together in making that a reality.

Distressing symptoms in the present often are from situations in the past which when addressed people report feeling free in the present to become their authentic selves and accomplish their goals. I wanted to become better prepared and so studied beyond basic EMDR training to become a Certified EMDR Therapist with the International Association (EMDRIA). Primarily I work with veterans, adults, young adults and seniors that struggle with past unresolved trauma or distress, PTSD, over reactions, anger, depression, anxiety and fear, impulsivity, low self esteem and confidence, emotional mood swings, as well as aging issues.

I work toward helping clients feel emotionally safe in therapy. It is very important that people feel validated, understood, accepted, and not judged for having their difficulties. I have been in private practice for over 35 years. I work with a wide variety of people, including individuals and couples. I have particular interests in helping people with depression (including Bipolar Disorder), anxiety (i.e.,panic, generalized & social anxiety, PTSD, OCD, etc), relationship difficulties, and addictions. I am a provider for numerous managed care companies, and have been on medical staffs of various hospitals for many years.

The weight of emotional pain can be unbearable and lonely. It is difficult, impossible even, to envision feeling better, feeling fulfilled, feeling connected or just feeling like yourself again. These emotions may result from substance use/abuse, depression, anxiety, grief, relationship problems, or life/work stressors. I understand how daunting this first step can be and I provide a safe, warm space to help you make your way through this and find your healthy path.

Every day, people go through hard times, breakups, divorces, grief, and the loss of a friend, animal, or loved one, the loss of a job, etc, and we all need help from an unbiased person for aid and support in these and other areas of concern. When it comes to Trauma, I believe it is an exciting part of life; one is not expecting it, and you barely understand it. Now you can deal with and overcome it in a healthy and professional way. Along with other mental health issues, I have experienced enough trauma, grief and loss, sadness, depression, and substance use to last a lifetime, from childhood mistakes to adult issues and I can help.

I see therapy as a partnership; you are the expert on your thoughts, feelings, and past experiences, and I am the guide who helps reframe and challenge certain lenses you might be using to view a situation or part of yourself. One of my primary specialties is working with those who are struggling with their use of substances. Another area of passion for me is assisting those who are experiencing anxiety, depression, or who are having difficulty moving on from a past event. A third focus in my practice is working with the experiences of those in the LGBTQ+ community.

Does daily life feel overwhelming and out of control? Showing up for ourselves, our loved ones and our other roles can feel like such a struggle when anxiety and depression leave us paralyzed. Stop feeling stuck in the same behaviors and start making different choices. Together lets find meaningful, real solutions. I can help you learn helpful tools to calm the body and mind, change negative thinking, and address harmful, unhelpful behaviors. Therapy can be the place where you can begin to create a plan for meaningful change.
