Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists in Arvada, CO

Sometimes the changing seasons of life, even exciting ones, lead us into corners that can feel dark, confusing and uncomfortable. Alongside the excitement and joy that come with growing one's family can also come sadness, regret, doubt, and anxiety. My name is Ashley Hudson, and I would like to help you embrace the tension of emotional heights and depths that can come with pregnancy and postpartum .

I have 22 years of clinical experience. In the last 16 years I have been focusing on women's issues, particularly issues around motherhood such as: perinatal and postpartum mood disorders, fertility, miscarriage and loss as well as transition and adjustment concerns. I also address issues of depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, serious illness and trauma. I consider myself a christian counselor and believe that a persons religious and/or spiritual beliefs can be an asset in making changes and moving forward.

I specialize in working with clients who are struggling to adapt to a medical illness or life change. My focus is on helping you maintain a sense of well-being and normalcy in the face of unique and often distressing circumstances. Treatment can include addressing grief and loss, symptoms of depression and anxiety and existential questions such as "why me?" I work with patients with a variety of health issues including: cancer, infertility, cardiac disease and women's health, including postpartum depression. Through my focus on women's health I also help mom's adjust to ups and downs of parenting.

NOT CURRENTLY TAKING NEW CLIENTS I believe in a holistic focused approach to therapy. I incorporate mind, body and spirit to achieve a regulated emotional state and balance in one's life. I believe that client's are the experts in their own life and I have a variety of therapeutic techniques in my toolbox to accommodate each individual to find their unique healing path.

Hello, I'm here to help. Life is full of transition, both planned and unplanned. One of the most precarious times for unplanned changes is the parenthood. I consider this the time prior to pregnancy , during, and after. This is a time "supposed" to be filled with great joy. However, it may be (and very often is) complimented with complex feelings. Feelings including but not limited to : stress, anxiety, anger, fear, and loss. My goal is to assist those processing these thoughts and feelings within their partnership. Allow me to create a space to process the inevitable restructuring of your relationship as it grows.

Children, adolescents, young adults & parents are my primary focus. I meet children where they are, using play therapy and brain science to teach them emotion recognition and regulation. When teens and young adults are striving for independence and searching for identity, it helps to have a safe, nonjudgmental space to ask questions, share experiences & practice coping skills. I provide parents with knowledgeable support from postpartum through adolescence with training as a postpartum doula and parenting coach, as well as my own lived experience raising five children. I'd welcome the opportunity to serve you or your child.

I am patient, compassionate, and understanding. I know how hard it can be to work through the challenges in life, especially the unexpected challenges that shake you to your core.

I use an eclectic approach based on each individual’s needs and preferred method of learning and desired growth. With over two decades of experience, I come to the table with a seasoned approach.

Accepting New Clients as of MAY 2022 - It can be challenging to address our mental health, especially when society, our families, and our culture tell us it's taboo. I specialize in working with teens and adults in the Denver area from various cultures, backgrounds, sexualities, and gender identities who experience stress, trauma, and life adjustments. I work with individuals who struggle with women's issues including postpartum anxiety and depression, and infertility. I also work with individuals who experience substance use disorders, anxiety, relationship concerns, and those in need of school and career counseling.

My passion is to help others with their life stressors. Everyone has stressors, obstacles and life challenges that throws them off course. These life challenges may lead to anxiety, depression, feelings of anger, frustration and even hopelessness. It could be relational issues, life transitions, school, and family issues that throws us for a loop and makes us feel like it’s impossible to recover from.  My goal is to help you turn things around in a positive direction, because life is so much better than what you are experiencing now. Life happens, however; you do not have to face this alone.

Through my counseling and personal experiences, I have only grown more confident in my client's abilities and resiliency. With that confidence in each client, I aim to combine the resources and support of counseling with their innate strengths in order to help move them toward healing, recovery, and getting back to living with more joy

Life can be difficult. At times our burdens take up what can feel like too much space and energy in our day-to-day lives. Certain people might have an inordinate amount of sway over how you feel in a day (even when you don’t interact!). You might find yourself feeling negative, hypervigilant, or completely shut down. Perhaps you find yourself going back to certain memories you’d rather stop revisiting. These struggles are not due to a lack of personal strength or resilience on your part – they simply reveal that you are human, with human experiences and needs. And as a human, you have the right to ask for help when you need it.

I believe wholeheartedly in the power of families and relationships. When our relationships are thriving we can feel at our best, but when there is tension, loss of trust, trouble communicating, or just something missing we can feel lost, angry, or hopeless. My hope is to help you find joy, strength, and healing and am committed to helping you reach your potential.

Welcome to Silver Linings Counseling! We offer therapeutic services to individuals suffering from a wide array of mental health issues.

Emotions impact and affect the body causing us to hold them on a physical level. I work with the mind-body connection, utilizing mindfulness techniques, Neurofeedback/EEG Biofeedback, EMDR, breath work, and meditation, viewing the body as a whole to address trauma, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. As a somatic therapist, I combine these techniques to help clients become aware of trauma stored in the body, and work to resolve the trauma and empower the client. I engage the wisdom of the body to heal trauma, depression and anxiety, and move through life transitions by unifying the mind-body connection.
