Therapists in Denver, CO

When providing therapy, my goal is for us to develop a trusting therapeutic relationship in which our work together leads to you living a life with increased meaning and fulfillment. This can involve navigating through barriers such as depression, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma, problematic/compulsive behaviors, lack of direction, etc. Often this includes identifying barriers, personal values that really matter, stories we tell ourselves that are no longer serving helpful purposes, deepening understandings of ourselves and relationships, and implementing strategies that improve quality of life.

I provide a safe and respectful space for clients seeking to make meaning out of life. We explore the perspective you bring as we address issues in your life. Providing a warm, inviting environment I create an opportunity to work on life transitions and issues that affect relationships. I work with people of all ages passing through developmental life stages that cause stress, anxiety, depression and confusion. I begin where the client is while exploring the many diverse feelings that come with change. Couple's work is a speciality of mine.

Are you a stressed-out grad student or dealing with a major life overhaul? Maybe brand new at the job, uprooted by a move across country or bombarded by the pressures of life on campus? An exhausted new parent, navigating tricky relationships with adult kids or reinventing yourself after retirement? Our lives are full of change and change is tough but a tremendous chance for reflection and growth. Learning to manage these changes intentionally and effectively will pave the way for what comes next.

We are all becoming. Becoming more confident, more weighed down by the stressors of life and our relationships, more independent, and more unsure of our identity or place in the world. And the most confusing part: all of those ‘becomings’ are happening at the same time. How are we able to celebrate the joys in our worlds while feeling tied to pressures that are both external to us and internal, hitting close to vulnerable wounds? Welcome to Becoming Therapy Services. By engaging in open and collaborative dialogue, we will use tools to help discover the stories that deserve a voice and parts of you that exist beyond the surface.

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.

Do you feel stuck in an endless cycle of perfectionism and people-pleasing? Do you find you can’t get away from your own inner criticism, no matter what you do? Perhaps you’ve experienced anxiety from a young age and struggle to find relationships where you feel valued. When you’ve lived a certain way for so long, it can feel like change is impossible. But there’s a part of you that is a rebel, a cycle-breaker. It envisions a life filled with confidence, self-worth, and trusting healthy relationships. My goal is to help you bring this vision to life.

Accepting new clients! I am passionate about helping my clients to become the very best versions of themselves but understand that even the small steps are a huge leap in achieving this. Some of my specialties include life changes, anxiety, depression, fostering relationships, and all that comes with being a young adult.

Clients who benefit most from working with me are interested in gaining self-awareness, improving interpersonal relationships, and enhancing how they experience life. Therapy with me often focuses on understanding emotional patterns and developing new coping strategies. While therapeutic work is often aimed at resolving a current crisis, many clients find that linking current issues to past experiences is helpful in promoting personal growth rather than just fixing a situation.

I work collaboratively with people to help them create the lives they want -- in their relationships, families, recreation and work. This process of exploration and discovery is inspiring and taps into hopes, dreams and imagination through story and re-connecting and remembering memories and experiences of connection and joy in their lives. Clients who benefit most from working with me are usually bright, creative and interested in freeing themselves from the constraints of family, social and cultural expectations that have become internalized and held as truths. This is a way of finding your way home ... to where your heart is.

I want to help you create a happier life! Together we can navigate the feelings and emotions (anxiety, depression, fear) that have been weighing on you, and release past experiences that have accumulated over time. We will shift old thought patterns through self-awareness practices so you can show up consistently, with yourself and others. I will provide tools that support you in feeling more fulfilled and physically at ease. My goal is to help you make sense of why you feel the way you do. In doing so, we will bring deeper meaning and connection to your life. Therapy is a healthy place to begin building the life you want!

I see the therapeutic process as a relationship between you and I where we begin to explore one's patterns, relationships, strengths, and challenges.
