Gambling Therapists in Boulder, CO
Many of the people I work with are high-functioning professionals who are used to being competent and in control but want a place to examine themselves honestly. Maybe anger surprised them, a relationship decision doesn’t sit right, or they notice patterns they can’t fully explain. They aren’t looking for surface reassurance. They want thoughtful reflection, psychological depth, and a place to understand what’s driving their behavior so they can move forward with greater clarity, integrity, and choice.

Do you and your partner feel stuck in painful patterns of conflict or distance? Do small disagreements escalate or never get resolved?

Whether you’ve had an eating disorder for years or you just know “something’s up” with you and food, eating has been a source of fear and frustration for a long time. Most days your mind is filled with noise about macros, calories, and what you should and shouldn’t eat. After every binge, you vow never to do it again, only to find yourself in the kitchen days later frantically munching. You’ve tried to DIY your way out of it with diets and self help books, but nothing sticks. You may have even tried talk therapy or conventional eating disorder treatment, only to leave with insight but no relief. It’s time to do something different.

I believe the therapeutic relationship serves as a catalyst for understanding where we come from, and how our survival strategies and coping skills have benefitted us in the past, while also shining a light on which ones may be due for an upgrade. With a witness, and using principles of somatic therapy we can begin to excavate the limiting beliefs taking up valuable real estate in our psyche and put in motion an upshift of our self-concept. The therapeutic container acts as a vessel in which to recontextualize who we have been, who we are now and who we want to become.

Schedule a free consult instantly through website link! Many people come to therapy not just because something feels wrong, but because their lives feel less meaningful. I work with adults with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, addiction concerns, and major life transitions. I see healing as a process that goes beyond symptom relief and into understanding what your life is asking of you now. Therapy is a place to slow down, and connect to what really matters. Together, we focus on creating a life that feels more purposeful.

Healing isn’t about finding a quick fix or following a "simple" list of do’s and don’ts. It’s about gently rediscovering who you are and building a life that feels authentic. Not flawless, but whole. If you’re looking for a guru with all the answers, you’re in the wrong place (I’d make a terrible cult leader anyway). Real change isn’t about being told what to do. It’s about understanding yourself in a way that makes lasting growth possible. My approach blends directness and warmth, with just enough humor to make the hard stuff manageable. Let’s talk! Please feel free to contact me to discuss my current schedule.

Life happens! I tend to meet people at one of two junctures: either a big issue has arisen that requires some change; or they find themselves simply dissatisfied with life as it exists (relationships, jobs, friends.)
Change IS possible- but most of us were not taught how to identify or remove obstacles, nor are we great at identifying the strengths that can get us there.

Ever feel like there is more to this life than the one you've been living? As someone who has felt the gravity and darkness of untapped potential I know what's it's like to be living a life we don't love. The clues are within the depression and/or anxiety - these are our body's brilliantly sane ways of saying "pay attention!" Anyone can have a life that is full of passion, richness, purpose, and they feel joyfully proud to be living. It will take vulnerability, bravery, sacrifices, and perhaps some help to get this life that you love. I'd be deeply honored to be the gentle and firm guide you need to help you create this life.

Gambling Therapists
How do gambling rehabilitation programs work?
There are both inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation programs. However, for some individuals, an outpatient facility may not offer enough hands-on care, and for other individuals, an inpatient facility may be too much. Both types of care have knowledgeable health professionals including physicians (in the case of residential programs), psychologists, counselors, psychotherapists, and recovered mentors.
How do gambling 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?
Abstinence and maintenance are key for 12-step gambling disorder programs. Individuals in a 12-step group rely on each other for support and accountability. In addition, there is often a spiritual element to these programs, whereby belief in a higher power can help the individual overcome their tendencies. If an individual genuinely wants to cease gambling, attending a 12-step program along with regular psychotherapy can be highly effective.
How long does therapy take for gambling disorder?
Recovering from gambling disorder takes time and effort. There’s no precise timeline for treatment, but a person can see change if they stick with therapy and if they have the will and desire to stop. Treatment for gambling disorder requires honesty in therapy, a commitment to understanding triggers, as well as the development of coping skills. Making lifestyle changes is also important, such as staying away from lotteries, online gambling, and casinos.
Is relapse a problem for those with a gambling disorder?
Gambling disorder is often chronic and can be life-long; therefore relapse may present a problem for some individuals. But effective treatment can bring a person’s life under control. To remain healthy and on track, the individual may need to regularly check in with their support group or psychotherapist. Frequently refreshing their tools of recovery can be helpful.
