Taking the first step towards change is not an easy one, but a courageous one. I believe that most are capable of change given the opportunity and motivation to do so. I pride myself on meeting my clients where they are at on their journey and working as a team to help clients grow, heal, and transform. Most clients tell me I am warm, approachable, and down to earth - but with the doctorate specialized training and expertise they desire. Dr Melissa will challenge you and help you reach your unique goals all while being in a supportive therapeutic relationship.

I have provided counseling services in Denver since completing graduate school in 1999. I worked in both pediatric and adult medical settings, including hematology/oncology, emergency trauma and hospice. For 8 years, I worked at a school and community based medical clinic providing psychotherapy to all ages. I have also enjoyed private practice over the years. In each setting I work, including private practice, my therapeutic modality varies, but I always come from a strengths based/empowerment approach. I love somatic (mind/body) based work, as I am also a yoga teacher.

Accepting new clients! Congratulations on taking the first step to improve your mental health by seeking the right therapist. Finding the right therapist is all about finding a great fit. Please allow me a moment to introduce myself. I have over 20 years of experience in the field of counseling. All clients are unique, so I tailor my approach to best meet your needs with a focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) which connects thoughts to feelings and behavior, and Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT) which are skills to help manage stress and emotions. I hope to help you overcome the obstacles you face and achieve your goals!

I take a creative approach to my client's needs by combining traditional talk therapy with mindfulness & body based treatment modalities and techniques, including Somatic Experiencing, attachment focused EMDR and Inner Relationship Focusing (IFR). I have over 15 years of experience helping individuals with issues related to anxiety, eating disorders, trauma (developmental, medical and shock), panic, depression, and relationship issues. Through our work together my clients will come to feel more understood, more comfortable and more confident in their lives.

I combine my experience as a trauma-informed yoga and mindfulness instructor with my knowledge of evidence-based counseling and love of experiential education. I work holistically to meet you where you are and incorporate creative interventions, somatic awareness, and immediacy in sessions. We will explore how you move through the world with your unique experiences, strengths, and identities and establish goals for therapy together. My practice focuses on older teens, adult women, and genderqueer individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, identity exploration, and the impact of trauma.

Would you like to take control of your life? Are you looking for a happy and more fulfilling marriage? Would you like to gain freedom over past trauma? Zach Van Eps, MA, LPC, NCC aims to help people find relief from past traumas, healing in damaged relationships, and hope for a better future.

I work with clients who are seeking to explore and understand how their past experiences, relationships, family dynamics, etc. are currently impacting them. It's difficult to break unhealthy and unproductive patterns that were modeled and taught to you. It often takes an outside perspective to recognize and understand how this is contributing to anxiety, depression, stress, feeling disconnected from oneself and others and much more. My goal is to help clients feel unburdened by their past and feel empowered in all areas of their life.

I work with young women and queer people who are perfectionistic and hard on themselves. You set goals for yourself that aren’t reachable, and you feel like you’re failing, though from the outside it may look like you’ve got it together. You know that the patterns in your life aren’t working, yet it’s hard to make a change. Even recognizing that you might benefit from therapy is a big step. Healing doesn’t happen in isolation. Together, we can untangle old narratives, identify the things that aren’t working in your life, and develop new coping methods that work for you.

Accepting new clients! I enjoy working with individuals who are open and ready for change and growth. I have experience with several different mental health issues including depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, bipolar, trauma, and anger. I also specialize in life transitions and personal development. My goal is to help my clients develop, and live, a life they are happy and proud of. From issues related to stress, relationships, or lifestyle challenges to more severe mental illness. I will work with you to reach your goals and improve wellbeing. I am EMDR certified which is the leading treatment for trauma as well!

As a therapist, my job is to create a space where individuals and relationships can engage in meaning self-exploration, develop effective strategies to overcome obstacles, and continuously grow into a person you are proud of. I have experience working with adolescents (15 and older), adults, couples, and family systems. My expertise is with trauma, PTSD, identity development, depression, anxiety, and relationship issues. My name is Kevin (he/him) and I want to hear your story, help you grow, challenge you, and celebrate your success.

Life's stressors, anxieties and traumas can make it difficult to see the sun through the clouds. My aim is to invite sunlight back into your life by creating a space of warmth, safety and non-judgment. I believe healing happens in relationship; being truly seen and heard by another can have a profound impact on our ability to heal. Together we can work toward your goals.

The clients I work with all have unique stories with different formative experiences, but there are common themes that often emerge. Feelings of being stuck, disillusioned, discouraged, in despair, angry and/or in need of direction. My goal as a clinician is to provide guidance and insight where clients are accepted, challenged and cared for.

I've worked with a wide array of clients including teenagers, adults, as well as couples. I have extensive experience working with men of all ages, struggling with men's issues. I can help people struggling with depression, anxiety, OCD, family issues, relationship issues, work distress, and other issues you may be struggling with.

Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed? Struggling with your relationships and not sure why? You're not alone. I'm here to offer you space to explore, feel better and thrive. You don't get a medal for suffering, so let's work together to find you more joy in this one, beautiful (hard) life. I believe one of the bravest things we can do is begin to understand our own story. Vulnerability can be one of the scariest, most liberating, and empowering acts, and undoubtedly takes courage - so I commend you for being here, wherever you are in your process.

Are you a recovering perfectionist with a penchant for creative expression and spiritual practice? Do you feel burnt out by how much you care yet deflated by the social systems with which you interact? Is your attention overly affected by sensory stimuli in your environment? Do you have a difficult time managing your energy and time without externally imposed deadlines? Are you currently sober from an addiction yet wishing to deepen your lifelong practice of healing from the unrealistic expectations you have of others and yourself? If you answered "yes" to any of the above, you're likely in the right place!

If you're reading this, try releasing your shoulders from your ears, unclenching your jaw, and removing your tongue from the roof of your mouth. We tend to hold onto stress in the least noticeable ways and subtle changes can help bring awareness to our stress patterns. Whether you find yourself struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, life transitions, addiction, or the general stress of everyday life, you are in the right place. My hope is that through collaboration and a safe space to explore whatever it is you may be facing, I can be of support to you along your way.

Are you looking to confront deep questions about yourself? Your existence? Do you often ask what you are supposed to be doing in this rapidly changing world? When we don't have the answers sometimes this shows up as anxiety, depression, disconnection from loved ones, procrastination, perfectionism, or grief. We know we want to know ourselves, to lead a connected and meaningful life aligned with our values and aspirations. But sometimes we need help in crafting it. Sometimes we need help pulling out/re-discovering our internal desires that are hidden behind our defense mechanisms and coping skills.
