Therapists in Denver, CO

Trauma & loss can take all different forms and sit in our body & mind in a variety of uncomfortable ways. In counseling survivors of sex trafficking, I have encountered very difficult stories & complex trauma. The desire to find freedom from the symptoms and the past is within reach. After working overseas, I also can understand how hard transitions, grief, & feeling out of place is like. Your goals are the priority in finding your foundation & strength. I take a trauma-informed & holistic approach. This means incorporating the emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of you while understanding the impact of the past.

Do you feel alone in the world? Find it difficult to get out of bed? Have difficulty concentrating or remembering? Find yourself avoiding people?

I will accept you and what you are going through. I became a mental health professional to give people like you a safe, warm environment, where you don't have to feel so alone in the world. I am passionate about working with people like yourself, when your inner dialogue keeps you from enjoying life.

Do you ever feel like your emotions are imbalanced, and you can't put your finger on why or how to manage them?

Do you have everyday, ordinary life struggles that you think aren’t ‘big enough’ for therapy? Or maybe you find yourself dealing with more severe issues of anxiety, depression, postpartum, or substance use? Regardless of your starting point it’s okay to admit you can’t do it alone; we were made to be social creatures. As a licensed professional counselor, my goal is to empower you to be the expert of your own life while simultaneously journeying alongside you as we navigate finding solutions together.

Life can be challenging. Sometimes we have difficulty making sense of our experiences, whether it’s something painful that has happened to us, an unhelpful coping style we are struggling to change, or thoughts we’ve internalized that keep us down. My passion is to help you gain awareness within yourself, to identify and understand your emotions and beliefs, so that you can start making changes that count. I will empower you to navigate through anxiety, sadness, challenging relationships, and traumatic experiences so that you can create a life that is meaningful and in line with your values.

Hello, I believe each person can produce positive change in their life and that wellness can come from working through your goals and celebrating your unique path in life. Reaching out for help takes courage, and I provide a safe place to share your story and personal concerns, big and small.

My desire as a clinician is to walk and listen alongside you and empower you with everyday tools to use for growth, healing and freedom. Together we will explore and uncover your therapeutic needs with your story and narrative being the voice we listen to. I strive to create an open, honest and authentic space, adding some humor along the way, for you to feel safe, accepted and heard. I practice using evidenced based and trauma informed care. I am client centered, strengths based and solution focused and will use these modalities for your therapeutic needs.

Are you tired of feeling stuck? Like things from your past are holding you back and keeping you from reaching your full potential? Are you ready to actually work through your shit? To move past your past and step into the future you’ve always dreamed about? You might already know exactly which trauma(s) you want to work on. Or maybe you aren’t sure where exactly your current issues stem from but there are things from your past that you have never really dealt with. Maybe you feel like “trauma” is too strong a word, but you know certain things you experienced growing up have had a lasting impact on your self-esteem and relationships.

Are you a Gen-Z or Millennial woman who is struggling with dating and/or relationships? You want a happy and healthy relationship, but you find that you are tempted to avoid dating altogether because it gives you too much anxiety. It triggers your self-esteem issues to get worse. Or maybe you are dating, but find yourself dating only emotionally unavailable people and wonder if this is because of something you are doing/attracting.

Life will inevitably bring up intense emotions and feelings: shame, fear, confusion, etc. Overwhelming pressure, life transitions, past trauma, or simply the burden of daily stressors can pile on you until it feels like the weight of the world is on your shoulders. When overwhelmed, you may find it relatively impossible to maintain close relationships with family, friends, and significant others. This can create a vicious cycle of anxiety, isolation, and hopelessness. It can feel like you have no way out of this bleak season.

Currently accepting new clients! - Hi! I'm Kearsten and I am so glad you have landed on my page. In life we have all experienced anxious thoughts, disappointments, and conflict within our relationships. These challenging parts of life can prevent us from living freely and fully. Sometimes we need a little help engaging with our past experiences and emotions to pursue hope and healing. That’s where I come in - as a fellow (imperfect, broken) human, I will sit with you, offering hope, empathy, warmth, and steadiness as we process the unique intricacies of your life - the very things that make you, you.

We are not meant to live life in isolation. We innately crave deep meaningful relationships. I believe in helping people build healthy, deep lasting relationships and friendships. However, sometimes life happens. Attachment wounds surface. Trauma occurs. Life Transitions are inevitable. Depression and anxiety take over. These things keep us from enjoying the people and things we love. I take a holistic, evidenced based approach looking at past and present issues, as well as your emotional, physical, spiritual and mental state. I enjoy helping individuals overcome deep shame, insecurities and fears that they are not good enough.

My desire to care for people and improve their quality of life, combined with my own healing journey, are what made me fall in love with counseling. I really believe that we are not meant to face life's challenges alone. Life can be overwhelming, leaving us feeling weary, uncertain, and stuck. But I believe that within every person is a wellspring of strength and resilience waiting to be discovered. Together, we can navigate the complexities of life, untangle the knots of trauma, anxiety, confusion, and hurt, and forge new paths toward freedom and wholeness.
