Somatic Therapists in Denver, CO

As a relational therapist, I imagine you're here to transform the conflicts & hurt in your relationship/s into safe and secure spaces - spaces that offer true intimacy and a sense of meaning. I imagine you want a therapist who accesses intuition and asks pointed questions to get to the depth and heart of the matter; one who is sensitive, yet courageous and direct. In my practice, I provide therapy to intimate partnerships, adult families, and individuals. I help you fiercely and gently engage discomfort, access emotional truths, voice needs, navigate difference, repair ruptures, and move toward renewed and deepened connection.

I specialize in guiding individuals, relationships, & families as they navigate significant life transitions including changes in career, relationship, gender & sexuality, & coming into greater purpose & passion in life. Our work together may be short-term or medium-term, as I support you to process an ending or to build a new beginning. As a client of psychotherapy incorporating horses, your work with me will also include developing a therapeutic connection with horses, who can powerfully support you to come into deeper contact with yourself, your goals & your needs.

Our shared aspiration is to find happiness and freedom from suffering. Life often leads us astray from our envisioned path, leaving us uncertain about what our ideal existence entails. At times, overpowering emotions like fear, anger, sadness, or shame dictate our actions and choices, causing us to lose sight of our authentic selves. Yet, within this pain lies the potential for profound transformation, as we discover awareness, insight, compassion and hope. Through the therapeutic process, we will embark on a journey to explore your unique experiences, unearth your truth, and initiate the healing of both past and present wounds.

No matter where you're at in your journey, if you're motivated to heal from past trauma, I'm here to help. You deserve to live your life authentically, fully present, and to give yourself the love you always needed. I'm a LGBTQIA+ and Neurodivergent identified clinician, focusing on anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions with members of my communities. We'll build coping skills catered to your needs, nervous system, and neurotype. Together, we can release old pain so you can step into the life you want.

I am a psychotherapist and expressive arts therapist based in Boulder, CO. I use a trauma-informed approach that draws on the depth of relational psychoanalysis, the practicality of cognitive behavioral therapy, and the expressive magic of somatic and art-based approaches. I love working with anxiety and OCD-related disorders, embodiment and trauma healing, relationship issues, gifted populations, and people looking to nurture their creativity. I work with adults, couples, and teens. I’m especially passionate about the journey of individuation while holding each unique life story in a social justice context.

I am deeply committed to meeting you exactly where you are, recognizing and celebrating your unique strengths and abilities. I believe in embracing the beautiful (and sometimes painful) complexity of life's interconnectedness and the transformative power of turning our pain into sources of resilience and growth. In our journey together, I aim to help you uncover the narratives that shape your behaviors, finding profound wisdom in their impact on your life. Every session is approached with a sense of wonder and curiosity, as we explore the sacred space of therapy where all aspects of yourself are not just welcomed, but accepted.

Within distress lies untapped wisdom. Whether understanding the roots of conflict or unlocking latent insights, allow yourself to journey the terrain where conflict becomes a guide to profound personal growth. There is no need to navigate this alone. Let my expertise bring relief.

Eroticism is adult play: ideally it is expansive, vibrant, joyful, and stress-free. Living in a sex-shaming society damages our ability to have a loving, easy relationship to our erotic, sensual, and sexual identities. That damage can lead to conflict and disconnection with ourselves and our intimate others. Our relational health is a necessary ingredient in our overall life satisfaction. Most of us long for our intimate relationships to be a safe haven from the stress, overwhelm, and chaos of our lives. When that isn’t the case, it can lead us to feel lost, uneasy, and wondering how to find our way back to a feeling of security.

Hey there! I'm accepting new clients who are experiencing challenging emotions (depression, anxiety, anger), feel like they’re on the edge of burnout (compassion fatigue, eco-grief, difficulty with daily routines), or noticing relationship distress (communication issues, identity and sexuality exploration, boundaries and agreements). Most of the frameworks I use center around body wisdom and emotions because I believe you are the expert on your own experience and I'm just along to offer gentle guidance when needed. I feel passionate about supporting people who care about the world and want to make it a better place.

As both a therapist and a fellow traveler of life, I know the complexity and challenges of being a human in this world. I believe our identities are our most precious assets, despite what society has conditioned us to believe. Because of my own queer identity, I am particularly delighted to support folks who identify as queer/LGBTQIA+. My work is centered around helping clients reconnect with their inherent worth, heal the impact of the past, and learn to regulate. I will help you explore the life experiences and narratives that challenge you showing up exactly as you are, and guide you towards the healing and wellness you deserve.

Interested in trying something different? Traditionally, mental health issues are treated by a combination of medication and psychotherapy. At Alliance Experiential Counseling, we enhance results by engaging our clients in physical activities, such as hiking, rock climbing, walking, biking, fishing, and yoga to complement traditional treatment methods. This approach is highly effective with individuals with depression, anxiety, autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disabilities, ADHD, impulse control issues, or other disorders related to inattentiveness, self-regulation, self-esteem, or stress management/response.

I am accepting new clients! I work with people who want to experience more joy, calm, fulfillment, and connection, yet feel stuck in states of emotional overwhelm, fear, panic, emptiness, or feelings of disconnection. You may have specific goals you want to work on in therapy, or not know exactly what direction you want to move in, just know something has to change. I will bring a calm energy to the therapy session. I will support you in making desired changes in your life, processing traumatic experiences, or finding acceptance using therapeutic approaches such as EMDR, mindfulness-based talk therapy, and somatic techniques.

Hi! My name’s Margaret and I specialize in anxiety, relationship conflicts (dating, break-ups, divorce, etc.), self-esteem, identity exploration, and life transitions. I'm here to help you be kinder to yourself, feel more present in your life, and welcome all that it means to be human.

I am licensed to counsel individuals who reside in Texas, Tennessee, and Colorado. I enjoy working with adults of all ages, particularly those who are self-motivated and eager to change. My counseling style is warm and non-judgmental. I am skilled in helping individuals work through anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, negative body image, codependent tendencies, and relationship stressors. In order to help you make changes, find relief, and heal emotional wounds, I will expect a willingness to self-reflect.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, and anxious. One day you may feel very emotional and the next you feel shut down, and you may wonder about the impact your past experiences have had. I’m Amanda, and I work with emotionally sensitive individuals struggling with trauma, overwhelming emotions and anxiety to help them get to the root of their struggles and reach long-term healing. By helping to better understand the impacts of past experiences and to engage in values-aligned action, I help motivated individuals, who often have histories of trauma, grief, and substance abuse, move toward a richer and more fulfilling life.

“Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional." - Haruki Murakami. At times, life brings us challenges and hurdles that we feel ill equipped to handle on our own. I feel honored to work with individuals as they navigate the many changes life brings-adolescence, transitioning to adulthood, marriage and family, career changes, divorce, loss of loved ones, and aging. Often, these changes create anxiety, depression, anger, and feeling "stuck" - and we may not know how to move forward. My clients seek to understand themselves better, to change old, unhelpful patterns of thinking and belief, and create lives full of meaning and joy!

I believe that even in our darkest most difficult times, we all have a light to guide us through the darkness. I am here to help you cultivate your light and your power. Just as life is constantly challenging us and asking us to grow, heal, and adapt, we have the incredible ability to meet ourselves and create change within ourselves towards our greatest well-being. My role is to be a witness and companion in guiding you on your journey towards inner awareness, healing, self realization, and self empowerment. I hold sacred space for this with non-judgement, safety, and compassion.

Are you interested in the soulful exploration of finding meaning and purpose in your life? Would you like to find a deeper sense of connection with yourself and others? What if the struggles in our lives are not to defeat us but to guide us into a deeper place of self-revelation, transformation, and empowerment? I am passionate about supporting individuals in creating a life that the soul longs to live and express in the world. This journey takes hope, courage, and vulnerability, and I would be honored to be the gentle and firm guide to support you to create the life that you desire.
