Ardent Grove is a nonprofit founded on the belief that mental health care is a fundamental human right. We provide trauma-informed therapy and psychological assessment for people across the lifespan navigating trauma, chronic stress, mood challenges, identity exploration, and life transitions. Our compassionate clinicians offer individual, couples, and family therapy, EMDR, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, and psychological testing in a warm, collaborative space. We offer services in English and Spanish and work to break down barriers to care across Colorado through sliding-scale fees, Medicaid, and private insurance.
At Ardent Grove, we provide low-cost, culturally sensitive, trauma-informed care in a space grounded in warmth and collaboration. Our therapists offer in-person and telehealth sessions where clients can feel heard, seen, and supported. We accept Medicaid, United, and Aetna and offer sliding-scale options to keep care accessible.
We warmly invite you to reach out by phone, email, or through our website to learn more about our services and see if we’re the right fit for you. Seeking therapy takes courage, and we honor the strength it takes to make the first step. It would be a privilege to support you on your path toward healing and wellness.
