Therapists in Boulder, CO

We all want to be happy, yet, at times, life can be deeply challenging. The difficult times can be a catalyst for change, growth, healing, and new beginnings. The pain of life can motivate us to seek more effective support & coping tools to manage life's challenges with greater calm, confidence and clarity. I offer an accepting & supportive environment to address difficult issues, and help clients cultivate a better relationship with one's self & others. I help clients cultivate greater self-care, self-compassion, purpose, and fulfillment in life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 22 years of experience. I provide couples, Individual and Family Therapy. My modalities include: EMDR, CBT, DBT, Hakomi, and PACT for couples therapy. I am considered a Trauma expert and provide trauma informed treatments. I work with children, adolecents and adults. Many of my clients struggle with PTSD, depression, anxiety, addictions, chronic pain, medical trauma and relationship issues. My approach is collaborative, preventative, educational and inclusive.

I work with individuals, couples, and families in a dynamic, related, and grounded style. My work is about supporting my clients in learning how to relieve their own suffering, relate to others more effectively and efficiently, and living the life they want to live. Much of this work is around transitions in life: puberty, education, individuation, relationships, work, self-identification, and grief. My work with couples and families is grounded in the Psychobilogical Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT) and I am a Level II certified PACT therapist. I work with adolescents, adults, all genders, races, sexual orientations, and spiritual beliefs.

​​I specialize in providing therapy for depression, anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, substance use, and addiction. My focus is working with teens and young adults, and I prioritize cultivating an organic and genuine relationship with each client to meet them where they are in their journey.

Accepting New Clients. Life, what a mysterious and rapidly changing place. Throughout this journey we seem to develop a lens through which we see the world. The lens gives us some sense of safety and consistency. Yet, sometimes this lens does not grow and change with the present moment. Therefore, we may be looking through a lens that no longer allows us to see the present moment for what it truly is. I see therapy as an opportunity to explore oneself and gain greater awareness of how we see and experience the world. Together we can find a lens that allows you to move through the ups and downs of life with presence and clarity.

Are you looking to deepen your recovery? Tired of the one-size-fits-all approach? My practice offers ketamine-assisted psychotherapy as well as psychotherapy for addiction recovery. You’ve likely been through a lot and might be having a tough time identifying what’s getting in the way of making it through these tough times. Or maybe you have an idea of what’s happening and just unsure how to proceed. Ketamine can act as a catalyst for deep healing. Individual differences matter and together we can explore ideas and implement solutions for healing based on the context of your life situation.

I see therapy not as the means to fix a broken self, but a process of getting to know and accept your whole self. Through that process of self-discovery, exploring your relationship with habitual thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Learning to reframe the potential in challenges, obstacles and fears. Creating space to practice being curious about yourself with less judgement, being a supportive friend to yourself, acknowledge the wisdom of your experience and honor your core values. Ultimately, through the practice of a more open awareness, welcoming a truer sense of who you are and a more meaningful connection to life.

Whether your quality of life has been impacted by persistent anxiety, sleep problems, or questions about your direction in life, I am an experienced therapist who can help. Counseling is a unique kind of place to learn about yourself, how to manage distress better, and to enhance the quality of your life. I am a firm believer that we all possess the basic capacity to heal and grow from all of our struggles, if we have the right conditions for doing so: adequate understanding, space, and permission. Therapy with me serves to offer these conditions, and feels like a conversation- with purpose.

I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief, relationship challenges, spiritual crisis/development, and I coach people to help them realize their life goals, what they really want in life, work/career and relationships. I use specialized cognitive, client centered, and somatic approaches. For details please see www.newtranspersonalpsychotherapy.com

If you have come to this site. . . remember to breathe. . . in a way that you know you are breathing. . . I remind myself of this on a regular basis. . . There is more to you than you might think. . . Therapy is an invitation to re-discover a compassionate, curious, and wise energy that was always within you, but blocked by well-intentioned and sometimes extreme parts of you. I believe you deserve some sense of how I work. I also believe a good therapist continues to do their own work. . . which is why I meditate and meet regularly with trusted colleagues and we literally take turns being therapist and client with each other.

Welcome to a space where you can kick-start your commitment to wellbeing and personal evolution. I'm Dana, here to help you tap into your own well of healing and innate potential. In a society that tells us we need external validation to feel whole, I challenge that notion and remind you that the power lies within you. My therapeutic approach goes beyond conventional therapy, enabling us to delve deep into the intricate layers of your being and courageously confront the raw and unresolved aspects of your life. It's not an easy path, but I am here to walk alongside you as we navigate this challenging and vulnerable terrain together.

I believe that life can be difficult sometimes. We are not given a manual on navigating the complex tasks of life like raising children, managing job stress, or learning how to have a fulfilling relationship. I see counseling as a process where we can explore life's more pressing questions and address ways to create change. As a therapist, you will find I value being real and transparent so that our work together is honest, timely, and impactful.

I am so glad you are here. It is incredibly brave to take this step toward connecting with others in a way that will inevitably ask a lot of you. Therapy requires you to be raw and vulnerable. I believe in creating a space that allows for the comfortable and uncomfortable parts of processing, leading to personal and mutual growth. In my work with couples, relationships, and individuals, I lean on an attachment and emotion-focused theory to guide our work together.
