Couples Counseling Therapists in Denver, CO
The most successful relationships are based on a good "fit" between therapist and client.
I specialize in working with people who have suffered trauma and couples who are struggling. I am trained in EMDR and love working in that modality. I also enjoy working with adults who are in life transitions such as going away to college, starting or ending a relationship, or becoming a parent. I am passionate about birth and parenting as well.

While there are many versions of therapy and teachings I also utilize, I find that adapting my style to the client leads to flourishing relationships and success, whatever that means to means to you!
After spending the past ten years working for Major League Baseball as a Minor League Umpire, I’ve been gradually transitioning into a new passion: therapy. This journey has taken me from the baseball field to the counseling room, where I now have the privilege of walking alongside people through their toughest moments. In this new pursuit, I’ve had the opportunity to support individuals in a range of settings, including Shiloh House, a residential non-profit for at-risk youth, and the Crisis Text Line, where I have helped people navigate some of their darkest and most vulnerable moments.

The main issues I can help with are childhood and religious trauma, anxiety, and couples work to strengthen the relationship and navigate life changes together.
As an adult, you are beginning to realize that your childhood wasn’t “just normal”. You got away from total chaos in your family. Or maybe you left the church/religion. Or you have been rejected by past community for your sexual or gender identity. You thought you could move on but you can’t. This experience has left you totally destabilized. It feels like anxiety and depression are tag teaming. You don’t know who you are anymore. You feel so alone. All of your friends who didn’t have this experience just don’t get it. At the very least you just want to feel normal but what even is that?

I work with couples who want to improve communication, deepen emotional and physical intimacy, and navigate complex issues such as infidelity or disconnection.
My mission is simple: to create a safe, respectful space where clients can honestly explore and learn from their personal stories. It is a true honor to witness and support these moments of discovery—moments that are often raw, challenging, and deeply transformative.

When you add trauma, anxiety, religious trauma, family conflict, self-harming or self-destructive urges, overwhelm, and relationship challenges - well, who WOULDN'T want or need a space to process, be messy, and be held with care?
My therapeutic style is collaborative, and grounded in my values of anti-oppression, social justice, and liberation. I know that talk-therapy won't solve the world's problems, but it can help you navigate them, and show up the way you want to for yourself and others. I work with clients in Colorado and Wyoming.

Are you struggling in your relationships?
I hope to provide a safe space for you to reflect on your experiences in relationships, emotional reactions, belief systems, and personal values, and recognize how these have motivated your choices that have influenced relationships in the past or present. We will work together to shift automatic patterns into effective and intentional choices.

I also see adults with unconventional relationships and sexual identities or preferences.
I run a private practice with two convenient locations, Centennial and Denver. Off-site and telehealth therapy sessions are also available. Office hours are flexible based on your schedule; it’s hard to dedicate time to therapy when normal business hours conflict with daily life. I provide an initial 30-minute meet and greet consultation at no charge.

Even when your emotions, behaviors, or relationships are extremely different than what you want them to be, I believe that our feelings carry wisdom, our behaviors serve a function, and our current situation becomes clear in the context of our whole story.
I specialize in work with eating disorders, trauma, postpartum depression, and couples distress. I carry certification in EMDR, Emotion Focused Therapy, and the treatment of Postpartum Mood Disorders.

Hi, I’m Cecilia Kim, a Korean American licensed therapist and the founder of Honest Ground Therapy—a space rooted in deep presence, cultural wisdom and real healing. My work is guided by the Korean concept of nunchi (눈치)—the subtle art of emotional attunement and relational awareness. Nunchi isn’t just a cultural value for me; it’s a way of being. It shapes how I listen, how I hold space and how I honor each client’s unspoken truth. At Honest Ground Therapy, you won’t find surface level advice or forced positivity. This is a space where you can be fully seen in your complexity—where nuance, depth and transformation are honored.

Are you and your partner feeling disconnected, stuck in recurring conflicts, or struggling to communicate?
Through an attachment-based approach, we’ll address the roots of low self-worth and negative beliefs, working to nurture your inner child and develop a stronger sense of self. For couples, I use this same framework to foster empathy, understanding, and meaningful connection. I also integrate EMDR into the therapeutic process when beneficial.

I have extensive experience working with individuals and couples who are struggling with relationship difficulties, complicated trauma histories, depression, issues of identity and sexuality, life transitions, feeling a lack of meaning in life despite significant success, and those who have previously had unsatisfying experiences in therapy.
I believe that therapy must be tailored to each person or relationship I am working with and I work in each session to achieve that fit. If a personalized and complete approach seems to be what you need or want in your work then we will likely be a better fit.
