Adults Therapists in Arvada, CO
It is easy to feel lost, anxious, and on the outside of life-especially when you are dealing with trauma, chronic health problems, or neurodiversity. Both my personal and professional experience has helped me to understand how frequently these conditions are linked and can help you learn the skills to process your emotions while living in these turbulent times.
By curating an individualized safe space and utilizing an eclectic approach through a variety of evidence backed therapies

We all long to be seen and understood, and to offer that same understanding to the ones we love. Sometimes, when this connection breaks down, it can leave us feeling lost or wounded. I believe that healing begins when we restore these essential connections — with ourselves, with others, and with the world around us.

I have been in private practice since 1976. Most of the people I see want to alter repetitive patterns in life and love they cannot seem to change. Some have been in therapy before. I find change to be a challenge because we tend to see what we already know. The therapeutic process should offer a partnership during which new ways of seeing and experiencing develop because of the different perspectives that the relationship offers. Recently I have found Zoom to be useful for those with unusual schedules or locations as well as face to face visits.

If you feel overwhelmed by the state of the world, and find yourself thinking "A cloud of worry and criticism seems to follow me wherever I go. I have a decent job, most of my problems seem small compared to others, and yet that doesn't change the fact that most days I want to give up. My free time is a minefield of avoidance, distraction, and overwhelm. The things I really want to do with my life feel far away, and mustering the motivation to do something about it can feel impossible. I'm terrified that my whole life will be one long, crushing disappointment. Why does it have to be so hard?" I can help. We can do this together.

If you’re looking for a genuine and authentic therapist who believes in swearing and humor in the therapeutic relationship then look no further. Hi, I’m Denae! As a therapist who lives in the neurodivergent world myself, I believe therapy should be both real and lighthearted. With over a decade in behavioral health and dual licenses in counseling and addictions, I bring both clinical training and personal experience. I hold a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Regis University. My goal is to create a safe space where you can show up authentically, free from judgment, with a touch of humor along the way.

You’re smart, hard working, and from the outside - you look successful. But keeping up feels exhausting. The laptop time that bleeds into personal time. The constant crisis-management. The fear of failure. The push and pull between reaching your goals and taking time to enjoy your life. The isolation, imposter syndrome, and second-guessing. Work-life balance feels impossible when you're always thinking about work and you always feel "behind." You know something needs to change, you just aren’t sure what, or how.

Hi my name is Brandi! Creating a connection with someone who can hold the space and listen with empathy and compassion is the most important aspect when looking for a counselor. It is not easy to open up about areas of our lives that are painful. Showing up for counseling takes great strength and I admire my clients willingness to allow me to be part of their process. I offer my clients a safe non-judgmental space to discuss and process difficult subjects and themes that show up throughout life.

Trauma, grief, stress, and life transitions significantly impact our lives and functioning. If unaddressed, these challenges can feel unmanageable. They can cause you to feel hopeless, misunderstood, ashamed, and isolated. They can cause you to feel trapped in patterns of emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, patterns you adapted to cope and survive, but which may no longer serve you. I believe all humans have an immense capacity to heal and grow. I also know that sometimes we get stuck and can benefit from some extra support. If you are feeling stuck, I am here to support you with finding your way out.

While addiction may seem irrational, using alcohol, drugs, or other substances to feel better provides a powerful short-term “fix” that mimics what you actually need: love, belonging, and relief from the pain of being human. The momentary escape from fear, anger, loneliness, shame, or sadness doesn't last, and over time creates a spiraling, dehumanizing loss of the very connection you are seeking. Addiction is a life thief! Your sense of self, your relationships, jobs, and finances all take a hit, and life can feel like one crisis after another. It's easy to forget who you are, and what's actually important to you!

Imagine living fearlessly as your authentic self. Feeling comfortable in your own skin. Feeling a little more relaxed in social situations. Feeling confident using your assertive voice to set and maintain healthy boundaries for yourself. Imagine feeling confident in your ability to interact with diverse, complex and even challenging personalities. Imagine...saying "no", or honoring commitments to yourself or others. Imagine starting the journey of healing and self-discovery. Imagine truly believing you are enough, worthy and deserving.

We cannot always control the situations we find ourselves in but we can choose how to react to them. I believe change comes from vulnerability, respect, and an ability to lean into the uncomfortable. In our work together, I aim to create a safe and nonjudgmental space which will enable you to explore yourself and create the resilience you will need to face adversity. I see challenges as an opportunity for growth and believe one can always learn from mistakes.

Do you feel like your life has become defined by your struggles with your symptoms or yourself? Do you feel far away from the life that you want? My goal is to work with you to help you let go of, move through, and transform your struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma and grief, in order to move toward a more full, meaningful life. As part of our work together, we will create an idea of what a fulfilling life looks like for you, explore how to get there, and compassionately confront the barriers that might exist between you and that life.

I'm here to offer guidance and compassionate perspective to help others overcome life’s obstacles in order to live healthy, fulfilled, and whole lives. You deserve to live a life that reflects your authentic self and aligns with who you are.
