Gretchen Seefried
Registered Psychotherapist, LSW
Verified
Children, adolescents, young adults & parents are my primary focus. I meet children where they are, using play therapy and brain science to teach them emotion recognition and regulation. When teens and young adults are striving for independence and searching for identity, it helps to have a safe, nonjudgmental space to ask questions, share experiences & practice coping skills. I provide parents with knowledgeable support from postpartum through adolescence with training as a postpartum doula and parenting coach, as well as my own lived experience raising five children. I'd welcome the opportunity to serve you or your child.

These can both be improved by better understanding your past & adapting how you respond in the present. Together, we practice new ways of experiencing difficult emotions to make them more manageable & less threatening. We will explore & better understand the stories you hold of who you ARE, who you SHOULD be, & how these formed over time which can result in increased self-understanding & self-compassion.

The work at our group practice, Better Lives Building Tribes, focuses on that complex point, at which, individuals intersect with another. Through intimate/romantic relationships, friendships, partnerships, families, and organizations that we are surrounded by, we learn where individual strengths and weaknesses are. Through that knowledge and understanding, we work with people to discover creative means of closing the gap between where people are right now and where they would ideally like to be.

It is okay to ask for help. So often, we are shamed for reaching out and admitting the need for assistance and, I am here to tell you, it is okay to ask for help. It is my philosophy that my job is to further facilitate this cycle of positive change and growth within my clients, regardless of whatever personal struggles and challenges they may bring to counseling. Clients can look forward to finding a place where they can be completely themselves without fear of judgement when working with me.

Therapy. Coaching. Psychedelic Integration---- I am a licensed psychologist and faculty member at the University of Denver. During my years of clinical experience, I came to realize that traditional models of therapy were less efficient than I or my clients wanted them to be. I became focused on finding methods of collaborating with clients to help them quickly recognize their patterns, make sense of the pattern's origins, and re-write the stories that maintain them. The most important part in this process is working together to identify where you want to shift your way of being to create a life of joy, fulfillment and purpose.

You thought your hard work and training would be enough to make you excel but here you are, once again, underwhelmed by your results. You've tried putting in more effort; working harder than before to improve but let's face it - it's not doing the trick. The anxiety and self-doubt creeps in: "Am I actually good enough?", "Should I just quit?", "Will this ever get better?". The uncertainty continues to grow and you feel like you're underwater, choking at the most unideal times.

Life can be hard, and no one knows this better than adolescents, young adults, and the families who love and support them. Intense emotions; urges to engage in impulsive behaviors; navigating social situations and the stress of school; difficulty getting along with parents; the politics of Snapchat, etc! The instability of this time of life offers both challenge and opportunity. Therapy can support young people to harness the chaotic yet formative nature of this time as a catalyst for lasting wellness and growth: Explore one's identity; develop effective coping strategies, practice interpersonal relationship, heal trauma, and more.
