Therapists in Boulder, CO

About our work: In a world inherently full of scarcity, violence, unpredictability, and a lack of meaningful inclusion, many bodyminds develop dis-stress, dys-regulation, dis-ease, and other adaptive trauma responses. I view my clients as equal partners, prioritizing their lived experience and self-determination as we experiment with new somatic, movement, emotional, cognitive, behavioral, and social strategies to replace disempowering Stress Response System patterns with more empowering ones. We take a systems approach, brainstorming ways to advocate for meaningful inclusion in the social context to create a values-aligned life.

I can support you if you’re wanting to live a more authentic, connected life, where you are living out of your personal code of ethics. It is my goal as a therapist to help bring you back to a felt sense of connection with your body. I specialize in working with teen and adult clients who are going through transitional phases, experiencing relationship issues, or are in need of processing some heavy life events. Therapy doesn’t exist in a vacuum. For those of us with marginalized identities, whether that be neurodivergence, chronic illness, or you’re part of the LGBTQ+ community, I want you to feel seen and heard.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist. I offer a variety of behavioral health services and specialize in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). I take a positive, solution-focused approach to work with clients and their families. Concerns I most often treat in children, adolescents, and adults with ASD include anxiety, depression, social skill difficulties, emotion dysregulation, adjustment to medical illness, life transitions, and work-related difficulties. I also provide parent support to caregivers struggling with their children’s and adolescents’ behaviors such as excessive use of electronics, toileting difficulties, and outbursts.

Ryan, aka "Coach Vigh" or "Vigh", takes an integrative approach to Therapeutic Mentoring by utilizing multiple theoretical models, in addition to educational strategies, to best fit an individual client's needs. "My approach emerged from my formal instruction in Cognitive Psychology and Educational Psychology, my experience working in the field for 15 years, as well as my desire to instill positive changes in someone such as those that my mentor was able to foster in me."

I am also a registered Yoga Teacher, and incorporate Eastern approaches into treatment such as yoga, meditation & sensory awareness practices.

Feeling more tired than usual, wondering how you are going to make it through the day? Are you frustrated with trying to achieve things you feel you should be able to do, but somehow can’t? Do you have thoughts and feelings of anxiety, anger, betrayal, shame, grief, or humiliation log jammed in your mind? You wish life could be better, but you can’t seem to find the path there on your own, even after doing your best. What if you could clear the log jam? Be kinder to yourself? Feel part of the world?

It takes courage to ask for help; you have already taken the first step. Life throws us situations we don't anticipate or have encountered before and we need help getting through. You are here because you or someone you care about is in pain. You have come to the right place. We have all had those times when we need someone besides family and friends to talk to. People come to me for a variety of reasons: anxiety and depression, relationship problems, family issues, emotional and social struggles, rebuilding self-esteem, teen difficulties, general life transitions, and personal growth.

I hope to walk with you along this path of discovering your innate wisdom, potential for growth, healing, and transformation.

Many of the clients I work with recognize the soul even if they call it something else like spirit or Self. Regardless of what we call this depth we often arrive at crossings in life where that center is lost, buried, or suffering. These can be painful crossings, with subtle and sometimes disturbing pleas for a return to adventure, more imagination, trauma sensitivity, exploration of sharing our gifts - and pursuit of a more meaningful life. Combining the insights of Jungian psychology with the mapping of the archetypal quest, dream and process work, and brainspotting....

This connection allows each client to safely explore and create the changes and healing they are striving for.

Navigating life is a complex and tumultuous process. Every day, we're tugged in myriad directions, confronted with decisions at every turn that ask us to balance relationships, work, self-care, and personal growth. This constant barrage of "shoulds", responsibilities, and pressures in life creates an unrelenting current of stress and anxiety and leaves us worn thin and wondering, "why is it so hard to feel good?" It's no wonder that we find ourselves grasping at food, alcohol, tv, sex, drugs, and social media to relieve this tension. However, the relief provided by such behaviors is temporary and only exacerbates the problem.

My focus is to support you in overcoming challenges, cultivating personal growth, and developing a strong sense of self.
