Over the years, I have had the opportunity to work with individuals of incredibly diverse backgrounds and concerns. Whether your goal is to increase energy, get sober, learn positive coping skills, or maintain/create a good relationship with others, we can work together to make it happen.

I started working in the mental health field 25 years ago. I believe in the importance of a therapeutic relationship that is built on trust and safety as my clients develop more insight about themselves and their relationships by applying evidence-based treatment modalities. I approach therapy from a trauma-informed and strength-based lens utilizing CBT, Mindfulness, Internal Family Systems, EMDR, and Play Therapy.

Therapy is about more than talking, it's about gaining the skills for making changes you need in order to get you to your goals. I am empathetic but straight forward, finding a balance between a client's thoughts, emotions and behaviors. You might be ready to have your behavior change before internal change can occur. You need to be action action oriented and I will be also. I always push clients for change but do so in a way that is enjoyable for all involved. By the end of each session you will have a sense of progress made toward your ultimate goals.

Therapy is a place to explore thoughts, feelings, past and current experiences that are impacting your life, build skills, and to be heard. Together we will identify what is important to you and direct our conversations to help you get “unstuck from the muck.” I focus my practice on youth and young adults, many whom have experienced trauma, depression, anxiety, social pressures, strained relationships, adjustment difficulties, divorced or separated parents, behavior and learning needs, have been in foster care or adopted. I am an LGBTQ+ inclusive care provider. I have experience with resistant youth and those who are self-motivated.

As a psychologist, my goal is to provide compassionate psychotherapy to adults, adolescent, families, and couples. I work diligently to understand your unique challenges and strengths to provide thoughtful guidance, important observations, and heartfelt support. How we work together is tailored to your specific needs, concerns, and constraints. Whether you hope to feel less overwhelmed, to enhance a relationship, or to improve your family dynamics, I will help you develop a plan for improved living. I use a clinically integrative approach and incorporate psychodynamic theories, proven cognitive-behavioral coping skills, and strategies from solution-focused, gestalt, and family systems theories.

I feel that family connection and communication is the foundation for healthy futures for both adults and adolescents. As a seasoned LCSW in the Denver metro area I have extensive experience in working with youth and families in getting through these challenging experiences and moving towards healthier communication, relationships and futures. I offer in-home family and individual work that addresses issues related to juvenile justice involvement, patterns of oppositional behaviors, school issues, unhealthy relationships and other presenting mental health issues. Family therapy addresses family relationships, parenting skills, communication challenges, and understanding healthy rules, roles and responsibilities.

I believe that we can all benefit from connection and support during our lives. I enjoy accompanying people on their journey to well-being and healing. I am passionate about EMDR therapy as a way to treat trauma, depression, anxiety and other challenges. I also use creative approaches with people of all ages, due to my extensive play therapy training. Being a registered play therapist supervisor (RPT-S) helps me to work creatively and compassionately with people across the lifespan. I am also certified in perinatal and infant mental health, so that I can support children, parents and families from the start.

Feeling stuck in your personal life or in a relationship? Do you want to thrive not just survive, moving past depression and anxiety to optimism and vitality? Are you interested in creating a committed relationship based on mutual respect? Do you want to live more fully and authentically with meaning and purpose? Practicing 25 years, I've helped clients attain their goals through a supportive and interactive style, focusing on their strengths. Clients learn skills to resolve depression, anxiety and conflicted relationships. I often hear the comment, "I wish I had done this years ago."

Do you want to learn new techniques to cope with difficult situations or work through complex emotions? Are you looking for clarity in some areas of your life or want to work through a traumatic experience? Do you want to strengthen your relationships? I would like to support you in your journey toward personal growth. I have worked extensively with adolescents, adults and families within a variety of settings, such as the home, schools, and wilderness/adventure programs.

"If you can change your mind you can change your life." - William James. I have helped individuals make changes in their lives since 2004 in neurofeedback, private practice, community mental health, and school settings. I regularly address issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, family stress, social skills deficits, self esteem, autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, suicidal ideation, coping skills and values identification. I see no greater accomplishment than helping clients overcome obstacles, feel good about themselves, make smart choices, and experience success. Together, I know we can create positive changes in your life.

I've always wanted to help children and families thrive. This passion is what drove me to become a therapist and it's what guides my commitment to delivering a positive therapy experience to each family I see. More than anything, I believe that families have unique strengths that will guide them through life's challenging times. I believe in the process of therapy - play therapy and EMDR in particular - as tools to cultivate resiliency, attachment, and problem-solving skills for children and their families.

The Children’s Trauma Center (CTC) provides comprehensive trauma treatment for children ages 3-12. We use treatment models that have proven results. We also believe that imbalances in nutrition, movement, sleep, and connection with others, can have a significant impact on a child’s quality of life and ability to fully participate in effective trauma treatment. At CTC, we attend not only to the trauma treatment, but also to the child's overall health by providing therapeutic "whole health" activities in our indoor garden, kitchen and outdoor space.

It takes strength and vulnerability to do therapy. Sometimes the bravest thing is just showing up. I am a teacher at heart and will take advantage of a teaching moment. I believe you can learn about self and what keeps you stuck, what maintaining factors influence you and the lens you see your world through. I believe in being authentic and curious while exploring possibilities vs labeling and judging. Knowing who we are authentically is powerful. Sometimes the authentic self gets lost, but it is there at your core. "Knowing oneself comes from attending with compassionate curiosity to what is happening within" Gabor Maté.

It's time to think about yourself differently. I'm not exactly the touchy feely kind of therapist and won't ask "how does that make you feel" every 5 minutes. I help you get significant, lasting change, not just to feel good talking. I work with individual, couples and families. It's your thoughts and beliefs that cause your problems. If you want change in marriage, trauma, anxiety, depression, anger or even drug/alcohol use, we have to change the way you think about yourself, both individually and within your relationships. When we fix that, everything else falls in line.

For over 25 years, I've had the privilege and honor of hearing my client's stories and learning about their lives. I believe that developing and nurturing a therapeutic relationship built on trust and mutual respect, as well as creating a safe environment for my clients, is key to a successful therapeutic experience. I treat a variety of emotional and relational difficulties including depression, anxiety and relationship conflicts, as well as parent/child issues and significant life changes.

Hello my name is Rich Audsley, I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and I specialize in working with couples and families. The family is a system, much like the human body. Just as the entire body suffers when one of its parts fails to work in harmony with the rest of the body, the entire family is distressed when one of its members is lost or is "out of sync." Families and couples sometimes need help understanding how their particular system is working or not working.

Everyone's journey in life is filled with challenges that often help us to understand more fully who we are. Sometimes it is helpful to have another perspective, a guide, or tools to navigate these difficult stretches of the journey. I have worked with individuals, couples, and families in counseling for the past 20 years and was an educator prior. I work with a wide variety of clients, but have extensive experience working with anxiety, depression, divorce, parenting, life transitions, personal discovery, and spiritual issues.
