Dissociative Disorders (DID) Therapists in Denver, CO
I strongly believe in the human capacity for resilience, healing, and transformation and I am passionate about tailoring therapy to fit the individual and their strengths. Most of all though I genuinely care and invest myself in the people I serve, I have worked with clients experiencing a variety of conditions such as panic disorder, sexual/physical abuse, anxiety/depression, disturbing memories, trauma, stress reduction, and addiction. I am however particularly passionate in providing therapy to the LGBTQ+ community, a population in which individuals are statistically more likely to experience a mental health condition.

There's something different about you. Maybe you're figuring out your sexuality, gender, or romantic life, or exploring polyamory or kink. Maybe you're a plural system. You may view the world through a neurotype or spiritual lens that doesn’t match the people around you. Or maybe your life has been changed by traumatic experiences. It might be really hard to trust people...to risk opening up about what you're dealing with. I get it. It’s hard to know who actually has your back.

I specialize in trauma- and attachment-based therapy for PTSD, C-PTSD, dissociation and relationship struggles. Often the experience of feeling disconnected in your relationships, being weighed down or feeling hijacked by your past, or noticing how patterns of pain or stress are continuing in your present can be overwhelming and feel helpless. There is nothing wrong with you! What these things could be saying is that you can't sort through these things alone, that you may need someone to walk alongside you to guide and join you.

Navigating trauma, identity shifts or major life transitions can amplify feelings of shame and judgment, making it challenging to hear your own voice. You deserve a space where you can be seen, heard, and supported. Together, we can explore these challenges and work toward healing, so you can move forward with clarity and confidence. If you're feeling overwhelmed by fears rooted in past wounds or parts of yourself you've been taught to hide, you're not alone.

When trauma is chronic, relational, or dissociative, insight alone is not enough. My work focuses on safely reprocessing what remains unresolved in the nervous system. Complex trauma can look like persistent shame, emptiness, or internal conflict. You may experience difficulty with trust, attachment, or boundaries. Its not uncommon to become emotionally overwhelmed or experience rapid shifts in your emotional state. Sometimes, you can feel fragmented or have an unclear sense of self and despite trying with good intentions and efforts to change, patterns continue to repeat themselves.

When therapy really works, the experience is soul-feeding and transformative. I work with people who want to deeply understand themselves, and any suffering they may be experiencing, as part of the path to feeling more grounded, content, and whole. This path is often mysterious and difficult, with twists and turns that can be hard to predict. But the process is also full of meaning and growth. I'm especially looking to work with people who are interested in investing deeply in this process and open to meeting multiple times per week.

I understand that it can be difficult to find a safe space to explore overwhelming emotions and the challenges that come with life’s difficulties. Starting therapy can feel intimidating, and I recognize the strength it takes to take that first step. My commitment is to create a warm, non-judgmental environment where you can feel safe, supported, and empowered throughout your healing journey.

Many will enter therapy thinking, “What have I been doing wrong to get here?” I meet clients and think, “What have you been doing right to make it this far?” Yes, I think a bit backwards, but it’s what allows me to find innovative ways to help clients move forward using their strengths. Individuals, couples, and families who have previously felt stuck in complex issues with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief & loss, adoption, parenting, and relationships report finding relief through embracing their strengths and being reassured that their experience is valid. This helps tap into their innate ability to heal and renew balance.

Human beings are highly adaptable, but sometimes the ways in which we cope are maladaptive or counter productive. Oftentimes when we encounter adversity our natural instinct is to tough it out and hope things change. Sometimes that can lead to feeling stuck, helpless, or overwhelmed when things don't change. Therapy can help get you unstuck and back to living the life you deserve. My main areas of focus include complex trauma, PTSD, dissociative disorders, and attachment issues. I am Level 2 trained in IFS and trained in EMDR.

High-Achieving Professionals Attachment Trauma & Anxiety —
I work with high-achieving professionals who appear successful on the outside but struggle internally with anxiety, relationship difficulties, and the lasting effects of childhood trauma. Many are adult children of emotionally immature or abusive parents and may have histories of emotional, physical, or sexual abuse. In therapy, we focus on understanding how early attachment experiences shaped current patterns and develop new ways of relating to yourself and others that support greater emotional security, authenticity, and lasting change.

“Scars have the strange power to remind us that our past is real.” -Cormac McCarthy. I work with going into darkness and introducing the light that comes from healing. My approach is Holistic, Transpersonal/Existential, and Trauma-Informed, while also relying heavily on the creation of autonomy and meaning. My style is particularly effective for people who are struggling to overcome traumatic and damaging life experiences, including adult survivors of childhood abuse, veterans, individuals in the GLBTQIA community, and others who have had to cope with severe hardships.

Physical injury can leave even the most seasoned athletes feeling overwhelmed, isolated, disconnected from their bodies, and unsure how to return to the movement they love. There is often significant grief that accompanies an injury, adding layers to an already painful process. Having a steady, supportive space is necessary to work through both the physical and emotional layers of recovery. Our therapeutic work prioritizes acute and chronic injuries, focusing on inflammation, the nervous system, and unresolved trauma that prevents our bodies from healing.

We are currently accepting new clients at Pollema Counseling Center, and I’m so glad you’re here. I believe meaningful therapy is not just about insight, but also about reconnecting with yourself in a deeper way. This often includes a “returning home” to your body—learning to listen to it, feel safe in it, and use it as a source of grounding and healing. My approach blends cognitive therapy with somatic (body-based) work, creating space for both understanding and felt experience. I also offer therapy intensives that can be a great fit for clients who want to do deep trauma healing- feel free to ask about this on our call!

Dissociative Disorders (DID) Therapists
How does therapy for dissociative disorders work?
Dissociation may be triggered by stress or other upsetting circumstances, and therapy can address the traumatic events at the core of an individual’s dissociation. Understanding why a person may dissociate can help the therapist and the individual come up with alternative methods of coping. A person with a dissociative disorder may get stuck on negative thinking, for example, and treatment like Cognitive behavioral therapy is a gold standard for breaking such thinking. And dialectical behavior therapy, for example, can help a person manage their anguish through better emotion regulation.
Which therapies are best for dissociative disorders?
Specific approaches used by professionals include cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, psychodynamic, schema therapies, among others. Cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies are two widely used therapies that can help individuals with painful memories and past traumas. These therapies work to integrate an individual's different identities into one person.
Are there specific medications for dissociation?
There are no specific medications prescribed for dissociative disorders. However, psychosis, depression, anxiety, and/or panic often co-occur in dissociative disorders. A psychiatrist may prescribe medications for any accompanying symptom—which may include antipsychotics like aripiprazole, antidepressants like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or anti-anxiety drugs like benzodiazepines.
How often and how long are therapy sessions?
Like any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual. Patients may see improvement within 15 to 20 sessions, at an average of 50 minutes per session, others may opt for 20 to 30 sessions over, perhaps, a six-month period. There are still other patients, especially those who have co-occurring conditions like depression and anxiety, who may need to continue sessions for up to 12 to 18 months.
