Elders (65+) Therapists in Boulder, CO

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....

We are always, already in relationship. Whether it is a relationship to another person, place, or oneself, we are in some way connected to and affected by our surroundings. It's in relationship that our deepest hurt can take place, and it's also in relationship that our most profound and liberating healing can occur. Let's utilize relationship- yours and mine, other relationships in your life (partner or friends), and the greater context of society, and nature to illuminate your unconscious patterning, and support you in finding new, intentional ways of being that bring you greater joy, clarity, and wellbeing.

What is challenging for you at this time? Are you struggling to adjust to current circumstances, unsure how to think about and plan for the future? Are relationships, work, finances, home, schooling, health, or ways of enjoying life adversely impacted? Could you use support in relating to whatever difficult emotions are arising? Would guidance in how to address difficult issues be helpful? Would you like to explore opportunities within the challenges? Are you ready to grow and to expand? Whatever your reasons for seeking therapy, I will offer you non-judgmental listening and skilled support.

My approach to therapy begins with slowing down, settling in, and getting curious about what your mind and body are trying to tell you. It is important to acknowledge the increasing speed and aggression in our world that can influence our consciousness and behavior - we can sometimes feel we are at the mercy of, or complicit with these environmental forces. I encourage my clients to take full responsibility for the difficult feelings they encounter as we explore behavioral changes that make sense.

If you've found your way to my page, you're likely looking for a shift in your life, relief, change, something more. I too have been in that place, not satisfied and pained. These times were the greatest access points I've ever had for a change into something better, beyond what I've known. I've been able to capitalize on these moments with help from others and have benefitted greatly. I want to support you in the same way. I want to partner with you during this tender, potent, and valuable time.

Carl Rogers said, when we accept ourselves as we are, then we can change. Focusing on the individual and their unique capability toward healing is the guiding approach I take in therapy. I work with great curiosity to explore the distractions and negative cycles that may be keeping you stuck. The struggle for clarity is a difficult one to navigate in isolation; together we can look at patterns and behaviors that no longer service you. The therapeutic process is one of finding balance between the emotional and rational, the mind and body and bringing that forward into our lives.

We all face challenges as we move through life. These challenges can be magnified when we repeat old ways of coping that originally helped us deal with difficult situations, but no longer serve us. At times, we may not even be aware of these habits at all. My job is to assist you in recognizing and understanding these outdated habits and in transforming them from automatic reactions into behaviors that are governed by conscious choices. Whether you are new to therapy or have had prior experience we will work together to meet your current challenges whether they revolve around work, relationships or both.

I enjoy helping clients understand themselves, maybe for the first time. We are presented with so many ideas, thoughts and noise that it can be hard to find our own voice and our own way. I work with clients who are seeking greater self-understanding, connection and empowerment in their lives. I can help you experience more personal clarity and congruence while also experiencing greater richness in life. I've also studied spirituality and have found that it has added more more depth to my life and my work as a therapist; I have experience with Buddhism, the Diamond Approach and shamanism.

People's stories are one of the most valuable things we have in life. If you want to have a meaningful relationship with someone, you need to be able to understand your own story. Helping individuals to develop and enhance their personal stories is at the crux of my work as a therapist. We all have public and private lives, and I believe the power of developing the stories behind these separate selves is how people vividly change their lives.

I love working with people. I tend to be a really good listener, love to brainstorm, and am somewhat directive. I am very practical and real. I enjoy very much hearing and working to understand situations and patterns in a person's life, where are they repeating themselves, and how many ways are there to break up patterns that are not serving us. I am keen to see habits and places that shut us down, and like to work on and practice how that may shift, with much compassion on how scary that can be. I appreciate the vulnerability it takes to come in and share intimate and hard details about ourselves.
