Women's Issues Therapists in Broomfield, CO

I have 23 years of experience helping my clients change their relationship with their thoughts and feelings as they close the gap between how their lives are and how they want them to be. I draw from different approaches, which allows me to meet my clients where they are, creating a personalized approach unique to the needs of each person. While I specialize in substance abuse, women's issues , and depression, I also help clients develop skills to manage stress, improve their relationship with themselves and others, and adjust to life transitions such as divorce, starting a new relationship, or having a baby.

Welcome! Thank you for taking the time to explore my practice. Do you feel stuck? Are you the person you want to be? Do you believe change is possible? Many of us spend years sleepwalking -- acting out old patterns, beliefs and fears. We're either unaware of other options or nervous about taking the steps required for change. By courageously reaching out for help and exploring therapy/counseling you're one step closer to creating a new reality. If you've been through therapy before, but are still lost -- if you're ready to transform your life, contact me. I can help.

Using a warm and present style, I trust the inner knowing of those I work with in the process of unfolding and moving through life. I use my gifts of intuition in our work together and am a reflective witness and facilitator to your process. My approach is integrative, utilizing various methods to support your growth and healing process. I am trained in Brainspotting and EMDR, and use these methods often in helping individuals experiencing anxiety, panic attacks, grief, and overwhelming experiences, to name a few. I value working with those who are motivated to explore their own growth and inner healing process.

I am passionate about working with adolescents, young adults, and people who are looking for a different approach than traditional talk therapy. I particularly enjoy working with people who are interested in a quick painless way to resolve trauma and who are open to a new way of thinking about how the mind works. In order to facilitate change I use a variety of experiential modalities such as Rapid Resolution Therapy®, emotional freedom techniques (EFT), matrix reimprinting, expressive arts, energy psychology, mindfulness/meditation, and other holistic methods.

Life is full of challenges. I believe these challenges can also be stepping stones to our own personal growth. Whether stress from a job, a relationship issue or perhaps experiencing depression or anxiety, everyone deserves to have a non-judgmental, safe place to be able to talk. As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I strive to make my office a comfortable environment where those "hard conversations" can happen, resulting in a deeper understanding of what roles we play in relationships as well as how our thoughts impact how we feel and act.

As a multicultural woman, I not only have personal experience with historical trauma, intergenerational trauma, and women's issues , but I also specialize in grief and loss, sexual assault/violence, suicidality, relationship issues, transitional difficulties, depression, anxiety, identity formation, and more. With experience serving ages 12-adult, I aim to create a safe space to explore an array of different obstacles within the human experience to leave the client feeling empowered and heard. My clients come to me looking for reprieve from mental aguish, and in true acceptance of the self, we venture there together.

I am a licensed professional counselor in the Arvada/Westminster area specializing in panic/anxiety, depression, and Spiritual concerns, including Atheism, Agnosticism, and Secular questioning. In addition, I provide Mindfulness Based psychotherapy in the areas of grief and loss, life transitions, and women's issues .

Ever felt like you can't control your emotions or like your thoughts are making you feel crazy? What about never feeling good enough, smart enough, skinny enough, perfect enough? Struggle with the fear of being a failure? This can be a scary place to be, you might be feeling alone and trapped by these thoughts. Like you can't share them because no one will understand. You're still trying to push through and continue with the multiple roles and tasks you take on every day but it is becoming harder and harder to find your motivation and confidence.

Do you struggle feeling connected and close to others? Do you struggle with worry or stress? Do you sometimes lose sleep, become unfocused or distracted, or is being present and calm around other people challenging? The work I do with clients centers around learning how to feel calm and connected again. Sometimes, after a period of struggle (like a loss, divorce, or extended work stress), we can forget what it was like to not struggle. To find that calm again, to reclaim who we used to be, can help us move forward.

Wow, the last couple years have been way harder than we could have imagined. Stress, burnout, depression, and anxiety have been everyday experiences. I get how juggling all that life throws at us can seem daunting and sometimes fill us with thoughts and feeling that we don't want to, or cannot, manage alone. You have taken a courageous step in coming here to find support. I can help you find your balance and support you along the path towards what you find most valuable and fulfilling.

It takes courage to seek support, so I take that to heart when working with people of diverse histories and needs. Perhaps you have had depression, trauma, anxiety, loss, life transitions, or other stress that you are ready to heal. I work most effectively with clients willing to look into themselves and their lives with both depth and compassion. If you are seeking an approach that is holistic, integrative, trauma-informed, and empowering, we may be a good fit for counseling. My intention is to help you find your own inner capacities to heal, grow, transform, evolve, learn, and become.

As a therapist, I am passionate about creating a safe, accepting environment where clients of all ages are free to discover, explore and live out of their most authentic selves. It is my desire to support both adolescents and adults in their journey toward growth and healing so that they may find balance and joy in their lives.

You want more from your life. People around you think you have it together and you have a great life. But they don’t know how anxious you feel, how much you drink or how you never feel good enough. It’s exhausting keeping it all together and it’s time for a change. Maybe you are questioning your drinking or you know something needs to shift because you feel disconnected from who you want to be. Whether you are a gray area drinker, taking a break from drinking or fully in recovery, you are welcome here. It's never too late to begin again!

Are you seeking hope? A future where you can understand your struggles, cope with them, and be kinder to yourself? Then welcome. You are in the right place. I am passionate about working with individuals and couples in their journey toward healing from trauma, depression, anxiety, life-changes, and other mental health barriers. I bring a trauma-informed approach to therapy, and desire to empower you to unearth your authentic and whole self.

My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation, improve your relationship, or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you . As a certified Imago Relationship therapist, I offer services for couples, individuals, parents, and families.

I work best with sensitive rebels and high achievers craving more connection, sovereignty, and life force. Often, therapy fails because it stays in our heads (and stories about things) and doesn’t get down into the good, messy, real stuff: into our bodies and hearts and intuition. I believe we need less analyzing, more feeling. Less head, more heart and body. I teach the embodied, emotional skills that revolutionized healing for myself and many of my clients to help you heal inner pain and emotional wounds, and turn on your power and passion so you can bring your gifts to the world.

It's time to make a lasting change, to get real and heal. Your life is too important. I help individuals unravel the complex stories of their lives. Life is full of twists and turns that pull us from our center, creating overwhelm and distress. Limiting beliefs picked up from childhood color our responses to loved ones and ourselves. We engage in behaviors that are disconnected from the person we really want to be. This feels awful.

We are living in a time of uncertainty, and for many, fear is a part of our every day lives. The healing and answers we seek go beyond band-aid approaches or comforting words. To heal our wounds, and live with the realities of life's unpredictability, we need all of us. And you need all of you, together, and whole. As you access a visceral awareness of your body and listen to your intuitive heart, your healing begins. Tapping into your mind’s creativity to unearth internal wisdom and external resources, all your parts together can mend traumatic injuries and weave together a new path.

*IN-STATE TELETHERAPY AVAILABLE* You can't shake the feeling that you're settling for less than is possible in your relationship. The problems in your relationship feel stuck, like they're just not going anywhere. You find yourself and your partner getting upset and reacting in the same old unhelpful ways over and over, but just don't know how to find your way back to authentic, loving intimacy. You're scared there might not be a way back. But you're hopeful that, with professional support, you can reclaim the sexual and emotional intimacy you've been missing, and find a way out of the same old fights and back into being in love.
