Bisexual Therapists in Boulder, CO

What happens when we cannot show the most vulnerable and truthful parts of ourselves? Suffering. Fear. Frustration. Incongruence. Do you need a space where these parts can be held, allowing you to experience more relief in your body? My goal is to guide you in the discovery and celebration of your authentic self. We live in a world where a right way of being is imposed. Often that entails communicating, dressing, and moving in one particular way. In other words, we are asked to act in ways that align the with dominant heterosexual, cis-gender, White, English-speaking culture.

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.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative process between therapist and client, and that by working together we can help you move toward understanding and healing. Your job is to be curious about yourself. Mine is to inspire and assist you in exploring the unknown, uncomfortable, and unfamiliar. I strive to kindly challenge the way people think, and to be challenged myself. I am honored when asked to be present in challenging times, and work to balance holding room for discomfort while helping you discover how to move forward. My ultimate goal is to help you heal by building upon our respect, honesty, and mindfulness.

From navigating relationships, careers, identity, politics, culture; adulting is no small task for a person of any age..... let alone navigating overwhelming emotions, eating, sleeping and trauma on top of the energy it takes to get by on a daily basis. Some part of your life maybe feels elusive and takes a lot of extra energy...like being able to stay in relationships, be at peace in your body or satisfied with how you present yourself to the world. Therapy can be a helpful place to sort through all the messages that are unhelpful and get clear on what your real needs are.

I enjoy working with people who identify as having Autism/on the spectrum, ADHD/neurodiverse, queer, who identify as male, female, or anywhere in between or outside of that binary. We would work well together if: you are hoping to learn, to grow, to experience the present moment, and question your thoughts. I don't believe in pushing people to disclose if they don't want to. I work within a framework of consent and open-heartedness at all times. I want you to feel safe when you are with me and to learn how to hold that space for yourself as well.

Your thoughts are racing-examining what you did, or could have done, wondering if you are over-thinking the situation. You try to pretend everything is okay but deep down there is a nagging feeling that something is off. So you work on doing all of the right things, trying to fix yourself, trying to improve, but the feeling inside doesn't change. You may even over-perform in attempt to prove to yourself and the world that you are worthy. But the feeling lingers. Many of my clients have had similar struggles with anxiety, perfectionism, self-doubt, trauma histories, or difficulty feeling comfortable in relationships.

Are you experiencing a lack of pleasure or connection in your body? Are you desiring more from your life and relationships? Do you feel like there is a deeper aliveness in you waiting to be reclaimed? I use a holistic approach to help clients unlock their innate emotional wisdom, uncover authenticity, transform painful patterns and create a life in alignment with their highest values and deepest desires. My approach is integrative and inclusive, with a deep knowledge of how our minds and bodies are inseparable, especially when it comes to sex and relationships. I love co-creating an open minded space for my clients to dive deep.

Psychology is derived from the Greek word psyche, meaning soul, and logos, meaning knowledge. Understanding this, I see therapy as an ongoing soulful opportunity for Self discovery. No matter your background, I show up with an authentic optimism, knowing you have a wealth of wisdom within you. I create a non-judgmental space for clients to feel seen, heard, and met with kindness through their life challenges. I guide those who seek healing in trauma, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, addiction, relationships, and spirituality. I help people reclaim joy & health with an open curiosity towards the dynamics that make up their lives.

Life contains many joys and pleasures while also presenting discomfort and heartbreak. Fortunately, humans are incredibly resilient and have an amazing ability to overcome tremendous challenges – especially when we work together. I became a licensed psychologist because I want to create positive change in the world. I believe when we help one another we all become stronger. I provide individual therapy for professionals and students ages 18+ to address concerns including: body image, eating disorders, perfectionism, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, academic and professional stressors, ADHD, and more.

My clients are often looking for support with trauma, anxiety, depression or OCD. Sometimes clients seek support because they feel anxious and stressed and don't know why. Through our work together, we make connections and create strategies so that clients can feel like themselves again or find new ways to approach their life. I honor client’s resilience and strengths while facilitating possibilities for new ways of thinking or living that reflect client’s intrinsic values and capacity to thrive.

Are you thinking about breaking a pattern that no longer serves you? Often feel like an outsider? Wanting to understand threads between past, present experiences, and possibilities ahead? Utilizing a variety of approaches, I can offer perspective and help you feel understood in order to create change in your life. I provide an affirming space for a lot of people who have had previously unsatisfactory experiences in therapy including LGBTQIA folks. I have extensive training beyond just getting licensed to practice therapy. Working with a clinically astute, sincere therapist can be life-changing.

Starting therapy takes courage. It can feel scary, confusing, and messy at times. I am here to make it lighter. To help you find hope and energy to keep going. To hold your pain, to help you find what works in your unique situation, and to empower you in being successful with your goals. I specialize in aging and health psychology (including sexual health, postpartum care, chronic diseases, pain, and eating disorders). As a member of PSYPACT, I'm authorized to provide telehealth services at AL, AZ, AR, CO, CT, CNMI, DE, DC, GA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, ME, MD, MN, MO, NE, NV, NH, NJ, NC, OH, OK, PA, TN, TX, UT, VA, WA, WV, WI.

As your therapist I will work hard to provide you with the tools to overcome obstacles and reach your personal goals. Unlocking your potential will be our primary aim along with developing an awareness of how we create our own blocks. You will also work towards becoming more yourself as strange as that may sound! This involves getting in touch with your own psyche to discover, or rediscover, what makes you tick. It can be an incredibly rewarding process.

(Please call or text me directly at 720-771-6653 as the number provided here does not seem to work and the voicemails are garbled... ) As a therapist, I offer a lot of feedback while respecting your views and goals. I have no hidden agenda, what you see is what you get. My job is to empower you to find your way through stuck places and to accompany you on your path of self-discovery. I was born and raised in Europe, so it gives me the benefit of having a multi-cultural perspective on life which I believe can enrich one's exploration.
