Relational Life Therapy in Denver/Foothills: Stop surviving. Start thriving—together. Most people don’t want to languish in therapy—they want their life and love back, now. I help couples & individuals get brutally honest about who they are and what they want, then close the gap between their values and how they actually show up. No endless insight, no tolerated contempt—just fierce generosity, real accountability, and the skills to build the intimate, authentic relationship you both deserve. If you’re done losing yourself (or each other) and ready for lasting change, this work is for you.

You’ve lived your life in parentheses: Shifting shape to stay loved, safe... or simply tolerated, included. It is so automatic to become what others need, that you never thought to stop and ask yourself what it is you really want, or like. But lately, something deeper is stirring. A tiny, cautious flicker that whispers: maybe it is possible to give yourself permission to yearn, without the all-too-familiar guilt. Quiet wisdom that understands it's not selfish to want a life that's still you, just with the vivid knob turned up. Even if the path to it is super awkward, squarely out of your comfort zone and frankly, terrifying.

Our foundational beliefs, values, experiences, and attitudes are the foundation upon which everything that comes into our lives is built. Like building a home, if a stone in the foundation is skewed, the house is structurally compromised. When we experience trauma or negative experiences, everything that touches upon that foundation is compromised. This can lead to anxiety, depression, relationship issues, low self-esteem, suicidal thoughts, PTSD, and a loss of life direction, just to name a few possible results. We all can restructure our lives through processing and perspective.

Effective clinical work demands a therapeutic framework that transcends the boundaries of traditional talk therapy. In my practice with individuals and families navigating significant life transitions, I utilize an experiential, action-oriented methodology to access what verbal inquiry alone cannot reach. This humanist and multicultural approach provides a technical space to synthesize and mirror your psychological and physiological narrative. By integrating specific creative media, we move past intellectualization to engage directly with the structures of your lived experience at a rhythm that honors your autonomy.

Secular and Non-Religious Therapists
What is a secular and non religious approach in therapy?
Secular or non-religious therapy is a theoretical orientation used by many therapists and describes a therapeutic approach that does not rely on any specific religious or faith-based beliefs in the therapeutic process. Secular counselors will often approach therapy with an emphasis on evidence-based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients, instead of relying on religious practices, such as prayer or belief in God.

Is secular therapy primarily for non-religious people?
Both religious and non-religious individuals can benefit from secular therapy. People exploring their religious or spiritual beliefs may find it especially useful to work with a secular therapist who is unbiased toward any specific religion. While religious individuals might value the connection and familiarity of seeing a counselor who shares their beliefs, secular counseling can offer them the chance to develop coping skills independent of their religious practice, which can be beneficial in various aspects of their lives.

Can a secular approach to therapy help with religious trauma?
One major reason clients may seek a secular therapist is to process previous religious experiences, including religious trauma. Secular therapists can help clients manage symptoms of the trauma through practices such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). They can also encourage clients through talk therapy or psychodynamic approaches to explore the roots of their religious trauma. Since secular therapists do not have any predetermined religious beliefs, they can be particularly helpful for clients looking to explore their own religious beliefs following a history of religious trauma.

What does non religious marriage and premarital counseling involve?
Marriage and premarital counseling typically involves a couple meeting with a therapist to discuss topics such as planning for marriage, navigating a new marriage, addressing relationship challenges, and developing better communication and conflict resolution skills. Non-religious therapists assist couples in achieving these goals without adhering to specific religious beliefs or frameworks, often emphasizing inclusivity and non-judgment, especially for "nontraditional" couples. However, seeking couples therapy from a non-religious counselor does not mean religious topics are off-limits. In fact, non-religious couples from different religious backgrounds may benefit from a secular therapist who remains neutral toward the beliefs of each partner.
