Depression Therapists in Lafayette, CO

Are you wanting to make a change in your life? Do you find yourself feeling stuck and in the 'same old' loop? Procrastinating? Unmotivated? Playing small? Not doing what you need to do/would like to do but don't get why, or know what to do? If the answer is yes, I can help. I believe personal change is absolutely possible and I would love to help you achieve the change(s) you are seeking while also enjoying the process.

Why psychoanalysis? In a world demanding of standards, success, happiness, etc. -or else you're dysfunctional-, psychoanalysis offers a space where adaptation is not the goal, it does not aim at 'making you normal', the main focus is desire. Causing the ability to respond to desire in a singular manner, yours, constitutes the core of the discipline, the cure happens in addition. A life where desire is present is worth living, analysis is a unique approach to get and stay there. I am an Argentinian psychoanalyst trained in Freudian and Lacanian analysis, an ABD PhD Candidate and doctoral researcher for the University of Buenos Aires.

You've probably discovered that life has presented you with a myriad of curve balls. Perhaps traumas from your past are lurking beneath the surface, waiting to be unveiled. Maybe you even notice your body sending you signals that something "feels off", or feel stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns and crave to break free. Waking up to our realities is a vulnerable and brave act, which can oftentimes feel frightening. I hold space for all of these experiences. Through trauma-informed psychotherapy and somatic (body-based) interventions, we will safely enter into a deep healing process for lasting change together.

For anyone feeling like life is not aligning, I work as a guide and companion to help move through these moments in life. My passion is helping women and couples create deeper connection, and navigate through grief, mood disorders, anxiety, or life transitions by seamlessly integrating nature-based techniques and an integrative therapeutic approach.

I have been working in the mental health and addictions field for nine years and have worked with individuals with trauma, adverse life experiences and the shame these kinds of experiences can have on their day to day experience. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Licensed Addictions Counselor (LAC) and have a Masters Addiction Certificate (MAC) and National Cert. for Adolescent Addiction Counselor (NCAAC). My goal in therapy is to encourage and challenge individuals to become the best they desire to be.

Hi! My name is Anya Garvey. And I offer my clients Dang Good Therapy For a Damn Good Life. My clients are ready for big shifts in their lives. They are motivated to take action and make change. They want more from a therapist than someone who simply nods, repeats back and parrots what you said. I will be your cheerleader, but I will also be your guide; moving you, step-by-step, toward the greater life you want to be living. I push my clients. I challenge my clients. And they are inspired and supported in effectively evolving themselves and their lives toward a better future.

We come to live our inspired life and relationships because of, not in spite of, our greatest challenges and pain. Every painful experience has at its center a great gift: the opportunity to live from a broader more joyful and peaceful place. I work with couples and individuals through the inevitable transitions of life supporting you as you learn how to shift from fear-based to trust and inspiration based choices.

I'm glad you're here exploring the support you need. For the last 15 years I have helped individuals and families navigate life's transitions, losses and challenges. I trust together we will discern the best steps toward reaching your goals, addressing your needs and concerns, while moving toward more joy and connection.

We all get scared sometimes - scared things will change, scared things won’t change, scared of who we truly are or who we might become. Life can really throw us for a loop. It takes real bravery to face the things that scare us. And only through that bravery can we actually accept ourselves for who we are, what we truly want and what part we’ve had in creating the thing that scares us. Once we can accept this, we can begin to create a life reflecting truth, authenticity and integrity.

My clients are often looking for something beyond skills, strategies and a diagnosis. I work best with people who are looking to really sort out what's going on in their lives, and who are interested in potent and lasting change. I also work specifically with people who are increasingly concerned about environmental issues or experience climate anxiety, grief or other feelings associated with environmental issues. As an avid outdoorsman and a Cross Country Ski instructor on weekends, I also frequently work with individuals from the climbing, skiing, mountaineering and other outdoor recreation communities.

Many of the client's that I work with have the same fight over and over again; maybe it's the dishes, maybe it's his friends, maybe you feel like she's not listening to you, maybe you both drink too much. Without professional help it's so easy to get stuck in a rut. At Kenosis Counseling, I believe in the potential of relationships. By resolving our issues through both vulnerability and committed action a relationship can become a place of peace and joy. I want you to have a relationship that others wished they had. I will help you become each others best friends, strongest allies, and emotional sanctuaries.
