Neuro-Linguistic (NLP) Therapists in Denver, CO
An authentic sense of connection within our close relationships, our communities, and to what gives our lives meaning is vital. As a somatic therapist, I work with clients to rebuild that sense of connection first by relating to our own bodies. I support clients in accessing mind-body coherence through nervous system regulation, embodied awareness, and the gentle navigation of how trauma lives in the body. I work with individuals of all identities, with a focus on queer and femme folks, and always bring a social justice lens to help clients reclaim agency, feel more at home in their bodies, and show up more fully in their lives.

Each of us has the ability to impact the world in a unique and powerful way and we are all born with the desire to deeply connect with others. Struggles with anxiety, depression, insecurity, burnout and stress can discourage us and keep us from realizing our full potential. Counseling gives you the opportunity to feel seen, heard and understood as well as challenged. It is through therapy that we come to understand ourselves more fully allowing personal growth, self esteem and possibly true satisfaction with the life we are given.

Feeling stuck, uncertain, or at a crossroads? Life changes — loss, relationship endings, career shifts, retirement, health challenges, or new roles — can bring up old obstacles, strong emotions, and questions about who you are and what’s possible. Sometimes it’s harder to name: grief, disconnection, or a sense that something feels off. You want clarity, practical next steps, and a way forward that feels authentic — a chance to move with confidence, reconnect with what matters, and trust your own strengths, values, and resources.

Grief is not about "getting over it." It's not a medical condition that needs to be cured, nor does it fit into a box. It is about loss...a break up, death of a loved one, end of a friendship, job loss or the end of a career, divorce, or the loss of a dream. Some days it may feel like you are drowning in a tidal wave of sadness. Other days, a pocket of grief envelopes you because of a song, smell, or memory. You grieve as deeply as you love, and your grief demands to be felt!

Most people just want to be heard. They want to know that someone is listening to them and someone cares. Further, most of us contain the answers to our questions. We simply need someone to support us and remind us of our great worth and value. Within this environment of support we are able to discover within ourselves what we have been lacking, where we are in need and what will improve our lives. You are capable, you can do this! I wish to congratulate you on coming this far, you are not alone and there is not something “wrong” with you. Actually, there are some great attributes within or you would not have had the courage.

How does neuro-linguistic programming work?
A therapist using Neuro-linguistic programming might start by building a strong rapport and gathering information about the client’s objectives and any problem areas. Then the NLP therapist will employ NLP techniques to guide their client toward healthier thoughts and behaviors. Clients will learn how to better manage their moods and hone their communication skills. NLP will conclude with the therapist and client making a plan for how to integrate the positive changes into their daily life in the future.
What are some techniques used in neuro-linguistic programming?
NLP therapists often employ anchoring, so the client begins to automatically associate their trigger with a healthier response. Clients also learn how to reframe a situation to change the way they react to it for the better, and how to replace the negative beliefs that are holding them back. Many NLP clients practice visualization or forming a mental image of themselves attaining their goals. Every NLP therapist will have their own preferred approach with specific techniques that they have found to be helpful for their clients.
How long does neuro-linguistic programming take?
Since neuro-linguistic programming is not regulated, the length of treatment can vary greatly. Some therapists may only use NLP in a single session, while others may employ it over the course of weeks, months, or even years. It depends greatly on the type and severity of the problem being treated, as well as the individual client’s response to NLP treatment.
Is neuro-linguistic programming evidence-based?
While some people may find neuro-linguistic programming helpful, either in therapy or in their career or personal development, the science behind this approach is inconclusive. Most of the available studies are small in scale and have produced mixed results, and the commercial nature of NLP lends itself to conflicts of interest. More research is needed. In the meantime, practitioners must use their best judgment of whether NLP techniques will be helpful in meeting their clients’ individual needs.
