Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists in Denver, CO

I take an eclectic approach to treatment that is tailored to each client's needs, with special attention to cognitive-behavioral therapies (CBT, DBT, ACT), psychodynamic exploration, and existential/meaning-making work.
If you've ever felt misunderstood, invalidated, or rejected because of who you are or the struggles you face, know that you're not alone. It’s my goal to provide a space where all are welcome as they are and honored in their journey toward wellness. As a queer man, I'm especially passionate about serving LGBTQ+ communities and have experience providing affirmative therapy and WPATH-adherent letters of support for gender-affirming procedures. I also have notable experience treating diverse individuals facing depression, anxiety, relational concerns, substance abuse, and many other challenges that often keep us from living full lives.

We will create a personalized mindfulness strategy and use tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy ( DBT) to guide you towards healing and growth.
“I feel overwhelmed all the time.” “I want to find motivation again.” "I need to take better care of myself." “I can feel my child struggling and don’t know how to help.” If you relate to any of these statements, let's work through this together. I have experience helping clients of various ages navigate the challenges of anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, body image, substance use, and stress management.

I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy primarily with elements of Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and workbooks.
Are you or your child struggling with feeling sad, lonely, depressed, or anxious? Have you been affected by traumatic events such as abuse, neglect, death, or loss? Do you struggle with self-worth, self-esteem, or issues regarding your sexual orientation or gender identity? Are you a pre-teen, adolescent, or young adult looking to address your struggles with depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, or sexual orientation/gender identity in a safe space provided in therapy?

I utilize modalities and perspectives like DBT, MI, ACT, & IFS.
Navigating this life is our greatest journey, and at times our biggest challenge. Asking for help, while difficult, can be the bravest and best way we support ourselves. No matter what obstacles you may be facing currently, you are not alone. During our time together, we will explore the patterns and stories that have been dominating your life and the systems around you. You are the expert of your lived experience, but sometimes it makes all the difference having assistance and guidance in changing the stories we are telling ourselves. Genuine connection is one of the most healing experiences.

I am training in EMDR and Gottman's Couples therapy, although I draw on somatic therapy, IFS, DBT, ACT and CBT.

I use techniques from IFS, ACT, DBT, Narrative therapy, mindfulness, and I specialize in EMDR.
Do you wonder what your inner voice would say if given the chance for authentic expression? There are myriad reasons that contribute to the quieting of our whole selves—individual, family, and intergenerational trauma, oppression, genetics, and sometimes just the inherent challenges of living in our world. Whatever your story is, you possess the inherent wisdom that’s key to your growth and healing. I work with LGBTQIA+ folks exploring gender identity and sexual orientation, individuals in non-traditional relationships, and those seeking support for trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and codependency.

Your life feels like a roller coaster of emotions, negativity and stress. Your emotions are in the driver's seat so much that you are the one suffering the consequences. You're often second guessing yourself or overthinking situations, but it doesn't work. You feel alone, isolated and utterly stuck. You are tired of feeling tired. You haven't felt like the real you in a long time. Maybe you feel hopeless that things can't get any better. Well, I'm here to tell you that you are not alone. Trauma, anxiety, and depression may be what's keeping you stuck and believing that you don't deserve better.
