Spirituality Therapists in Timnath, CO

Neuroscience offers promising directions to empower behavioral change. I employ emerging knowledge and strategies to help you change your brain. Using principles of positive psychology, I create an appreciative framework for therapy. Mindfulness practices assist my clients to move beyond difficulties and experience sustainable change. Stress, anxiety and depression are at epidemic proportions for Americans. As a skillful, experienced therapist, I will build a partnership with you to address problems, build your personal resources and discover your path to a more rewarding, enriched life.

My work is dedicated to helping people develop healthy and satisfying lives and relationships. Though it can be difficult to make the decision to begin psychotherapy, I have found that those who have sought my help have achieved valuable results. I offer confidential psychotherapy for individuals, couples and families. I have an expertise of working with clients dealing with issues of depression, anxiety and trauma, along with learning to cope with relationship issues and managing through difficult life transitions. I am committed to helping you receive the services best suited for you.

Although my experience lends itself to working with many different types of people, I specialize in working with girls and women on women's issues. Issues of specialty include: identity issues, self-mutilation, behavioral issues, sexual assault, trauma, eating disorders, coping skills, anxiety, and depression.

I have extensive experience working with depression, anxiety, ADHD, as well as other disorders. However, I take a relational perspective and don't define people by their symptoms. Stress, anxiety, depression, illness, can get in the way of the relationships we want. Even positive aspects of life, such as parenthood, education, and work can be obstacles to finding and maintaining close connection with others. I can help you learn to communicate more effectively, or get a handle on the anxiety or anger that hangs over everything you want to accomplish.

***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.

Life is full of surprises. Some are good, and some are painful. The exact details of pain are always unique. Themes I am familiar with include working with survivors of trauma and accumulated hardship, end-of-life preparation, grief, identity, depression, and struggles with intimacy. I enjoy helping individuals grow beyond the hardships of the past and find ways to thrive and live with openness and enthusiasm.

As humans we experience suffering (painful emotional states). This is normal...but what happens when you feel stuck here; as if you were living the same day over and over. Likely, your nervous system is overwhelmed and under-resourced. You attempt to cope the best way you know how. This might look like using substances, excessive sleeping or business, shopping, scrolling on media for hours, sex, self-harm, avoiding and people and responsibilities to name a few. While these are brilliant attempts to escape, numb or avoid the pain, it's not sustainable, nor should it be!
