Hi, I’m Vlasi. You can call me V. I'm a psychotherapist based in Colorado. I work with adults who feel stuck in anxiety, trauma, chronic pain, or patterns of thinking, beliefs and behaviors that no longer serve them.
My approach is holistic, trauma-informed, and deeply attuned to the mind-body connection. I believe that most symptoms are not signs that something is “wrong,” but signals from a nervous system that learned to survive difficult experiences. Together, we work gently and practically to help your system feel safer, more regulated, and more resilient.

Hi name is Justien, she/her/hers, and I am the owner of Soothing Sands Therapy, LLC. I specialize in working with children, adolescents and young adults.

I've got deep personal and professional experience with chronic illness, substance abuse, mental health diagnosees, the power of plant medecines and the struggles that come with divorce and raising a child as a single father.
I've been a licensed therapist since 2011. As time goes by I become more confident in being able to describe the type of person who might benefit from working with me. The "ideal" client. This person has likely made multiple earnest efforts at the difficult aspects of life: relationships, careers, meaning of life, struggles with mental health and substances. And an overall bewildering curiosity that comes with understanding this life. A life (consciuosness) granted to us, without us even requesting it. I feel the clients I 'click' the fastest with have an honest humblenesss about them. Our work begins in this humble space.

Ideal client? I think of the person who’s tired of hiding behind a shield. Maybe they’re feeling sadness, anger, or stuck in behaviors that keep hurting their relationships. Many of the people I work with have never had a space to be honest without feeling judged or weak. In our work, you aren't seen as inadequate; you are capable, and your struggles don't go unappreciated. As a therapist, I bring honesty and supportive direction to our work. My clients are routinely career-accomplished, yet wildly unsatisfied in personal relationships. I welcome anyone tired of the same old grind and ready to push themselves to try something new.

Life satisfaction is most closely correlated to the quality of relationships you have with others & most importantly, the quality of relationship you have with yourself. These can both be improved by better understanding your past & adapting how you respond in the present. We will practice new ways of experiencing difficult emotions to make them more manageable & less threatening. We will better understand the stories you hold of who you ARE, who you SHOULD be, & how these formed over time which results in increased self-understanding, self-compassion, & freedom.

Divorce Therapists
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.
What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.
When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.
How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
