Jungian Therapists in Denver, CO

My recent experience and ongoing training is in Jungian Psychology, a theory which honors artistic expression, image-making, and dreamwork as an important aspect of therapy.
I want to get to know you and your individual experience, and let that guide and inform our work together. I offer an authentic and collaborative therapeutic relationship, promoting deep exploration of difficult experiences and feelings as an important part of healing. Therapy is a place to openly explore what's been troubling you and engage in meaningful conversation towards resolution, renewal and a more holistic sense of self.

I work from orientations including Family Systems, Jungian theory, CBT, and mindfulness.
If you're reading this I want to encourage you to keep the momentum! Reaching out to a therapist is one of the most difficult and hopeful things you can do and it’s worth it! I work with anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship issues. I've been a psychologist for over 35 years and I still love the work. My approach incorporates a spiritual orientation; this is due to working with people who are in recovery, and my own journey. Spiritual based psychotherapy is not about religion, but about accessing the Power that surrounds us, the power of Love. I am an active, engaging therapist with a sense of humor, it’s good to laugh.

In my practice, I draw primarily from existential/humanistic models, Jungian depth psychology, attachment theory, & multicultural models of therapy.
Therapy can be an invitation to explore our inner world and how it relates to the development of the self, relationships, and our way of making meaning in this world. My aim as a psychologist is to offer that unique space to clients where transformation, challenge and deeper understanding can occur. I specialize in grief and loss, end of life concerns, identity development, trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic illness, and psychosocial oncology. I work with adults, children, and adolescents for psychotherapy and provide assessments for autism, learning disabilities and social/emotional concerns.

I use Jungian depth psychology and polyvagal theory to explore unconscious patterns and how your nervous system shapes your emotional world.
Struggling with self-doubt, low self-esteem, or uncertainty? Maybe you feel stuck in patterns shaped by your past, making it hard to trust yourself or move forward. You show up for others but struggle to recognize and honor your own needs and voice. I help my clients move from anxiety, overthinking and "analysis paralysis" to embodiment, self-trust, confidence in their lives. So much of what holds us back isn’t conscious—it’s wired into our nervous system, which is why I help my clients through a "bottom up approach", meaning we work a lot with the body through tools like Somatic Experiencing and IFS parts work.

My specialty is depth psychology, also known as Jungian or Transpersonal, finding the unity in your body, mind and spirit.
Life offers us all challenges, and sometimes those challenges may seem unbearable or especially unique. Some of us experience difficulties from the time we are little children- trauma, abuse, neglect. We each have unique abilities and strengths. Sometimes, we have trouble accessing our strengths, but you have gifts in your being that are your gifts and strengths alone. My goal in working with you is to act as a catalyst -to encourage you to find your talents, abilities, and strengths that will serve you in coping with whatever difficulty life has given you.

I love the approach of depth psychology or what is aka Jungian therapy.
At various times in our lives, we encounter critical moments where our past approaches, efforts, and patterns no longer work. This shift may arise from significant changes, such as losing a job, ending a relationship, or simply reaching the limits of our current circumstances. At these moments, it becomes essential to infuse new energy into our lives to inspire and provoke meaningful change. we often find ourselves at these crossroads when our inner selves are urging us to embrace something more powerful and authentic. It is through these crises that we discover the true call for transformation

Charlie is a heart-centeredly gentle, compassionate, humanistically person-centered and incisively enthusiastic proponent of multidimensional, experiential and holistic approaches to treatment, which both critically and imaginatively integrate mindfulness/MBCT, CBT/CBT-I, IFS, ACT, Existentialism, DBT, Jungian dream analysis, Narrative, energy healing, and transpersonal theories or modalities.
An old cosmic soul, Charlie doesn't believe in judging others or even necessarily helping anyone to change themselves, as everything is already going precisely according to your plan, and you are already perfect in your imperfection. Knowing is superior to believing, and in connecting to one's greater Self (and everything this entails), one reunites with, re-members and knows whom one already is within the deepest levels of one’s soul and way of being-in-the-world. In holistically seeking to honor and activate the highest potentials and aspects of any given individual, Charlie strives to both embody and share transformative change.

EMDR Training & participation in intensive Jungian Seminar Studies as part of my continued education & personal individuation process.
I love working with clients who want a better understanding of the deep interior of their mental, physical, and spiritual function in relation to the world around them and the relationships they engage in. Using an eclectic and collaborative approach, the relationship I build with my clients is deeply rooted in the Humanistic tradition of treating others with unconditional positive regard. Paradoxically, many of our wounds are created in painful relationships that make us scared to trust other people, yet these wounds can only be healed within the context of relationship; therapy provides this opportunity.

As a Jungian oriented psychologist I focus on helping adolescents, adults, and seniors resolve the underlying causes of their emotional distress, improve coping and communication skills, reduce or discontinue psychotropic medication, and connect to their true selves and a deeper sense of meaning.
Do you feel a loss of identity, purpose, sense of self, or interest in life? Are you dissatisfied with your goals, your job, or your relationships? Do you struggle with sadness, anxiety, disturbing thoughts, hallucinations, or self destructive behavior? Have you experienced a trauma that has shattered your sense of the world? Just as physical pain indicates that something may be wrong with our bodies, psychological problems tell us that we are suffering on a deep, emotional level. Anxiety, depression, relationship problems, and other symptoms are signs that we are experiencing psychological pain for some underlying reason.

My approach to therapy is diverse and tailored to each person's uniqueness–I utilize a variety of perspectives, including mindfulness, somatic experiencing, breathwork, internal family systems, and Jungian psychology.
As we travel along in life, emotional pain and trauma often cause us to fracture and lose touch with ourselves, leaving us scrambling to pick up the pieces–but the good news is we don’t have to go it alone. In a world full of distraction and overstimulation, it is an act of rebellion to slow down, look within, and feel. I see myself as a guide and co-pilot to support you in exploring your emotional landscape and navigating the ever-evolving journey of self-discovery. I’ve had the honor of helping clients work through anxiety, depression, complex trauma, PTSD, addiction, terminal illness, men’s issues, and relationship troubles.

I combine many powerful modalities, including Jungian inner work, neuroscience, fitness, career, and spirituality, but I will carefully tailor my approach to honor your unique needs and possibilities.
Love. Joy. Ecstasy. Awe. In my 18 years of clinical experience, I’ve discovered that we each have far more capacity for these expansive feelings than we often realize. Whether you are contending with many challenges, or feel ready to fly through the stars, I can work with you collaboratively to shape a life that fulfills your highest dreams, and maybe even soars beyond them. I’m eager to share what I’ve learned about our abilities to break out of old patterns of pain, fear, and shame into fruitful creativity and communion with the most inspiring aspects of being alive.

As a Jungian Analyst, I know that problems and solutions may involve deeper, internal aspects of our psychologies.
(Scheduling in-person and Zoom now) Sometimes we experience disturbing levels of anxiety, depression, anger, or loss. Sometimes we feel disconnected or not able to get a handle on things. In those times emotions can be overwhelming or confusing, and our usual ways of dealing with life don't seem to work anymore. Therapy offers a way to increase awareness of who we are, measure our limits, and expand our personal and interpersonal abilities to make significant changes. I believe we have within us the potential for a healthy and creative life. In the therapy process, we have an opportunity to discover and unleash that potential.

Jungian Therapists
How does Jungian therapy work?
Jungian therapy, also called analytical psychology, focuses on a patient’s inner experiences and unconscious mind. Exploring a person’s unconscious mind can be achieved through several means, including the analysis of memories and dreams, and through physical exercises, such as art, dance, and word association.
How long does Jungian therapy last?
Jungian therapy is an intensive treatment type. Because its goal is to understand a person as a whole, including the unconscious aspects of them, treatment can range from months to years. Since patients learn the theory behind Jungian therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have completed.
Is Jungian therapy effective?
According to studies, many patients find success with Jungian therapy, and the century-old treatment has a devoted following. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving relationships, self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. Improvements in problem areas seem to continue even after the end of Jungian therapy, as people are able to continue working on themselves using the tools they’ve learned during the treatment.
Is Jungian therapy evidence-based?
Jungian therapy is theory-based, derived from the theories of Carl Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist often called one of the fathers of psychology, along with Sigmund Freud. Jung developed his theories from observing the problems of patients, and developed many theories of how the mind works. Subsequent psychological research has determined that Jungian therapy can lead to significant improvement in most patients.
