Divorce Therapists in Fort Collins, CO

***Schedule full. Not accepting new clients at this time*** Life can be complicated for different reasons. Sometimes more support can help. At any age, life can be overwhelming, negative behaviors can persist, relationships trapped in hurtful patterns, or inner worlds caught in negative thinking which stretch our coping, and cause stress. In all this WE WANT TO FEEL BETTER! Counseling offers a private, confidential space to get help. It is an honor to listen and join in your life story. I work with adults/couples/families/teens and children, listening to your goals to bring balance, health, wellness, peace and more happiness.

Starting the counseling process can feel daunting, but I make it easy. I'm warm & supportive (but direct), nonjudgmental, funny, and REAL. I work hard to help you heal yourself & your relationships. If life feels overwhelming, you're struggling in relationships, or you need direction, I would love to work with you. I'll learn about you & your needs, and tailor my approach to your preferences and personality. Ultimately, I support clients to find healthier, more honest & direct ways to relate to themselves, their partners, and the world.

Sometimes it gets to be too much, doesn't it? You work hard. There's a life you are trying to create but you're struggling and feeling all alone. You don't have to.

Life’s journey can be tumultuous at times depending on the road you are on at any particular moment.Perhaps your road was difficult to begin with.No matter the journey the need for support at times is invaluable.When I work with my clients I will take the time to understand their history, their family, and in general their world that has made them unique.Our past and the way in which we have lived it can define who we are today.I treat the whole person or the whole family through the integration of evidence based therapies and customize each treatment to fit the needs of my clients.

Almost all of my clients have one thing in common. They want better, gentler, more fulfilling relationships. Whether they are struggling from the effects of trauma, working to enrich or save a marriage, navigating the divorce process, dealing with depression and/or anxiety, learning new social skills, or simply trying to be better parents, they want a deeper and more peaceful sense of connection with themselves and others. My clients are intelligent and thoughtful people who tend to connect with the natural world. They are often seeking to grow as well as to heal. They want to thrive rather than simply survive.

I’d like to welcome you into a process where you feel at home. In a world that may feel uncertain and isolating, I believe it’s possible to find what is new, and meaningful. I seek to create a peaceful, calm, and open environment and recognize the importance of safety when sharing intensely personal thoughts and feelings. With extensive experience combined with an approach characterized by acceptance and nurturing, I strive for my clients to feel comforted and cared for while working toward the healing that creates meaning for them.

I work with issues such as anxiety, depression, life transitions ( divorce , career and family changes, aging), chronic illness and grief and loss.

I am glad you are searching for a therapist to help you with whatever life issue(s) you may be struggling with. Finding someone you feel safe and comfortable with is vital when deciding on a therapist. As part of my practice, I strive to create a secure and nurturing environment where you can share concerns and vulnerabilities while also making progress toward goals and the changes you would like to have happen in your life.

Asking for support can be difficult and intimidating. It’s important to find the right fit between client and therapist. I create a therapeutic environment that is client directed and immediately focuses on the goals that you want to achieve. My agenda is YOUR agenda, and we will move at the pace you desire! I believe everyone’s life is just that… their life and no one else’s. While we often cannot control the cards we are dealt, we can learn to determine and control how we respond to them and what decisions we make with them.

Welcome to my website. My name is Julia Landis and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults in many settings and I have successfully treated a wide range of problems and concerns that arise in the field of mental health. I have worked as a therapist for more than twenty-five years and have provided individual, family, and couples counseling. I have worked with children and adolescents and their divorced parents experiencing difficulty due to parental loss and divorce . Early in my career I helped young adults change self-destructive behaviors including , substance abuse, and eating disorders.

Every next level of your life will demand a different version of you. Couples and families often have the same fight over and over, stuck in a difficult cycle. Individuals often feel lost, wondering how they got so far from their charted course. As a professor of psychology specializing in relationships, I am deeply attuned to the challenges of reshaping patterns within yourself, and with others. Through mindfulness interventions, a focus on emotions, narratives, and patterns, I collaborate with you to challenge what isn't working, and to build up more of what IS working in your life.

Are you influenced by a strong inner critic telling you stories about yourself that don't match with who you want to be? Maybe you don't have anyone you trust with whom you can really talk. Perhaps you weren't taught adequate coping skills to deal with whatever is overwhelming you right now. If you don't know where to turn or what to do, why keep swimming in the same old muck? Let's meet and work out a plan to see how you can be truly yourself, a creative and functioning human being, capable of happiness, fulfilling relationships, finding meaning, letting go of past dysfunctional behaviors, and engaging in truly joyful living.

MY PRACTICE IS FULL AT THIS TIME. I'm glad you found your way here. Perhaps you are here because you want to find...the peace of being comfortable with who you are, release from the pain of depression or anxiety, relief from the deeply sad feelings of losing a love one, a deep and meaningful relationship with another person, grace amidst the limitations placed upon you by illness, liberation from the constraints trauma, release from an unhealthy relationship, who you truly are and rest in that knowing.

Are you struggling with your partner? Does your family feel out of control? Do you wonder how life became so unmanageable? I work with people struggling just like you. Using an attachment focused therapy, we'll work together to create secure connections and reduce anxiety. This approach has profound effects for couples with relationship and sexuality issues, social anxiety, recovering from trauma, or reengineering their life. I work with families, parents, and children recovering from trauma, illness, grief, loss, moving, and divorce .

Do you feel like you are treading water? Are your relationships creating pain and frustration in your life? Are you feeling anxious and depressed? On your courageous journey of staying true to yourself in recovery, are you seeking support as you go deeper? Walking through tough times in life requires courage and commitment which is why you are here. Develop insight and understanding and create lasting changes in your life in a supportive safe environment. Learn skills and tools to develop confidence and overcome challenges-past or present-in a partnership with me to authenticity and freedom, healing and wholeness.

Do you feel overwhelmed and stressed on a regular basis? Is it hard to imagine your life getting better without some help? Increased and sudden anxiety is normal during these times- talking to a therapist can help you cope. I offer a free 30 minute phone consultation to help my clients decide if I am a good fit for them. I strive to provide a sacred and genuine space for people to get "unstuck" and help them to move forward. Depression, anxiety, social and relationship problems can be dramatically improved by having the courage to ask for and receive help. Take the first step towards a better life...hope to speak with you soon.

I work with clients who feel stuck; stuck in the emotion and negative thoughts associated with life's stressors. Clients, who are beginning to realize that there will always be the struggle of relationships or money matters or health concerns or..., yet understand that they can begin to develop a different outlook, belief system.
