Therapists in Denver, CO

We all deserve a time and a place to honor mental and emotional needs, heal from painful experiences, and move toward improving our lives and relationships. I look forward to working with you, as you navigate the ever-winding and changing road of life, to find routes that feel meaningful to you. We all have different wants, needs, abilities and desires when it comes to choosing these routes. My job as your therapist is to provide an evidence-based and individually tailored approach to assist you on this journey.

Healing and growth takes place in the context of relationships - both in our relationship with ourselves, and in our relationships with others. Unfortunately, sometimes our relationships become distant, disconnected and a place of conflict, leaving us with unmet needs and just feeling “stuck.” We don’t feel safe asking for what we need, and maybe don’t even know what we need ourselves. The therapeutic relationship in counseling provides an authentic and safe place in which healing can begin to take place.

It's always something - amiright? These days it feels like you are just trying to keep your head above water. For those of us that expect ourselves to try to do it all combined with society's expectation that it look easy - there is no harder task. I provide my clients with a variety of approaches, systems and resources to be able to not just "seem" to be doing fine, but to actually feel like they are doing well! I specialize in treatment of child/adolescents and adults with eating disorder, anxiety struggles and life transitions. I am also a skilled family therapist that can offer support to entire family units.

I work collaboratively with clients who are struggling with feelings of anxiety, life transitions, genuine connections, relationship issues, attachment, bonding and adoption-related issues. I believe in the strength of families and individuals and I will collaborate with you by building on those strengths during the therapeutic process. I believe we all have strengths we can draw from which make us a stronger healthier human being. I believe in looking at therapy as a part of a holistic maintenance we as humans should all participate in. We are exercising our brains and emotions to strengthen who we are and who we strive to be.

My therapeutic approach is person-centered, integrative, and empowerment-oriented. I often work with clients who may struggle with managing expectations from others while working to discover their authentic selves. This typically includes better understanding anxiety, trauma, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and people-pleasing. Whether you are hoping to better manage anxiety symptoms or better understand your authentic self, I am dedicated to working collaboratively towards your goals and aim to approach therapy with compassion and humor.

I help insightful people who are motivated and ready to make changes. I value listening to your "starting point" as you enter therapy. From there, we will build a dialogue that expands your awareness and choices of what else is possible for you in a given situation or relationship. My ideal clients are willing to practice new skills that may energize their communication and feel aligned with their true self.

No matter what challenge, stress or trauma you may be facing, we believe that as a human being, you have access to a reservoir of strength, resiliency, and peace within you. Sometimes you are able to access that peace on your own or with the help of friends or family; yet, at other times, you could benefit from the support of a trusted therapist. As your therapist, we are here to offer genuine care for you and your process - to help you discover peace within.

Welcome! If you are here, you have found the courage to seek the life balance you deserve through the best care possible. I'm Dr. Calderon, a licensed clinical psychologist, and compassionate, fun therapist. I earned my doctorate in clinical psychology in San Francisco. I've worked across the country in clinical settings including veteran, inpatient, outpatient, addiction, sexual behaviors, human services, psych assessment and primary care centers. I use a diverse range of therapy modalities including CBT, DBT, ACT, child play, and psychodynamic. I am dedicated to specializing in child/adolescent care but work with all age groups.

I have over 30 years of experience in psychology - researching, teaching, and practicing psychotherapy. As a therapist I work from client-centered integrative approach depending on each client's presentation and therapeutic needs, utilizing a wide variety of techniques, including EMDR, and emphasizing a collaborative approach to therapeutic process.

It is the great honor of my life to be able to help Coloradans overcome challenges with boundaries, relationships, communication, and overwhelming emotions. I especially love supporting recovering “good girls” to overcome people-pleasing and perfectionism to grow into powerful, strong, and free women. I use a holistic approach and support my clients in all aspects of self: mind, body, and spirit. Whoever you are and whatever your struggles, I'm here to help you learn, heal, and grow.

Dr. Larson-Konar believes: people have a tremendous capacity for inner strength, but sometimes we all need help accessing that strength. Therapy is a collaboration. Dr. Larson-Konar approaches therapy from a feminist and anti-racist stance, and he prizes the therapeutic relationship, ensuring that it's safe, warm, caring, and empowering. He strives to balance support with challenge. Therapy is hard work, but it's also fun, funny, and life-affirming.

I take a creative approach to my client's needs by combining traditional talk therapy with mindfulness & body based treatment modalities and techniques, including Somatic Experiencing, attachment focused EMDR and Inner Relationship Focusing (IFR). I have over 15 years of experience helping individuals with issues related to anxiety, eating disorders, trauma (developmental, medical and shock), panic, depression, and relationship issues. Through our work together my clients will come to feel more understood, more comfortable and more confident in their lives.

My approach is to help people recover from anxiety, trauma, PTSD, depression, grief and loss, eating disorders, adoption issues, perfectionism, difficult family relationship dynamics and feeling "not enough" no matter how hard you try. I know that taking the first step is big, and you've probably already been working really hard to manage things yourself. Let's work together in a productive way and get your life going in the direction that you want. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation to discuss what you need.

Each of us has the ability to impact the world in a unique and powerful way and we are all born with the desire to deeply connect with others. Struggles with anxiety, depression, insecurity, burnout and stress can discourage us and keep us from realizing our full potential. Counseling gives you the opportunity to feel seen, heard and understood as well as challenged. It is through therapy that we come to understand ourselves more fully allowing personal growth, self esteem and possibly true satisfaction with the life we are given.

I believe humans are beautifully complex beings with a mind, body, and spirit - to isolate healing to only one of these areas is to significantly limit potential growth. Are you experiencing anxiety that has not dissipated no matter how well you try to take care of yourself? Are you noticing that your relationships and career are not where you want them to be, but are struggling to know where to start to make changes? Maybe you are curious about how past challenges and trauma could be impacting you now, and want to break free from the hold that the past seems to have on you.

We integrate a variety of strategies including cognitive-behavioral techniques (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness. Most importantly, we will create a space to explore your difficulties together, without judgment.

Are you are struggling with painful issues in life? Do you want to experience a more meaningful way of living? Our experiences take us through many life changing events and challenges and sometimes in our life journey we may become stuck in our growth.

I view therapy as a collaborative, interactive process that can create change and promote repair. I enjoy helping individuals understand the themes that echo through their lives, broaden their sense of self, build emotional flexibility, and develop meaningful relationships. I work to foster curiosity and empower individuals to develop authenticity, autonomy, and self-compassion. I also strive to playfully challenge unproductive beliefs and explore the function of behaviors. I received my master's degree in 2009 and PsyD in 2012 from the University of Denver.
