Therapists Beginning With W in Colorado

As a young adult, I was haunted by a foggy knowing that I could feel less empty, irritable, overwhelmed, and stressed in my body and mind. More clear and relaxed in connection to myself and everyone around me. This foggy knowing led me to study psychology, so I could find my remedy and this learning led me to become a therapist so I could help folks find theirs. Part of what I've learned so far, is there are aspects of our culture, which encompasses our ways of being, thinking, feeling, that get in the way of accessing our remedy, our self-at best.

Welcome! I am a holistic and integrative clinical therapist who specializes in working with adolescents, preteens, teens and young adults that struggle with low self-esteem/self-worth, anxiety, depression, feelings of being misunderstood & alone, suicidal ideation/self-harming tendencies, trauma, adjustment and learning difficulties, cognitive differences and emotional/behavioral dysregulation. I enjoy supporting individuals who have a desire to learn more self-care and healthy coping strategies as well as incorporate creative expression, nature-based interventions and mindfulness practices into their therapeutic healing journey .

Yearning often compels my clients to begin our work together. Yearning for a different relationship with parts of themselves, others, the past. Yearning for wholeness or empowerment in the face of trauma, grief, or tremendous life transitions—maybe all of these. Perhaps clients can’t put their finger on what exactly the yearning is for, but they know they are not fully occupying their own skin. I work with individuals and couples experiencing depression & anxiety, grief & loss, trauma, OCD, stress management, eating disorders, life transitions, relationship struggles, attachment wounds, and the impact of addictive family systems.

I take an eclectic and individualized approach for each client that utilizes concepts from CBT, family systems, and solution focused therapy. I also incorporate concepts from art therapy, play therapy, and somatic experiencing in efforts to improve self-awareness, promote connection, and increase mindfulness. As a parent and professional who has worked in our community with families and educators for over a decade, I understand that each individual, family, and child is faced with unique complexities and stressors that must be addressed on multiple levels with sensitivity and understanding.

I believe that a trusting therapist-patient relationship is key to helping you achieve the growth and change you are looking for. Success in therapy occurs when you learn more about yourself, your thoughts, and your feelings. I aim to facilitate this process through an active, empathic, non-judgmental approach. We will work together to identify your own unique goals for therapy, help you access and use your individual strengths, and navigate the challenges that might be getting in your way.

The search for the right counselor is important and deeply personal. It can also feel overwhelming and stressful with so many mental health professionals to choose from. Whether you are haunted by traumatic memories, struggling with anxiety or panic, overcome with grief, or experiencing a range of other life challenges, making the decision to reach out for help and commit to counseling takes courage and can offer profound benefits. I strive to create a genuine, comfortable, and safe environment where we work together to achieve your goals.

Is the transition to motherhood more difficult than you expected? Do you wonder what you're doing wrong? You may be tired of the sadness, guilt, worry, scary thoughts, and anger. You may be feeling disconnected and isolated, wondering if you're cut out for motherhood. You might not even remember how you felt before all of this started. But one thing is for sure: you're ready for some relief. You're ready to start feeling like yourself again. You're ready to reconnect with your loved ones and enjoy your children. Most of all, you're ready to find joy and contentment in motherhood.

Life can present with difficult, overwhelming, stressful, and traumatic circumstances we are unable to change or resolve individually.

I value relationships and strive to promote healthy, resilient, and adaptive living, while working toward personal growth and healing.

Are you facing issues that have left you feeling like there are no good solutions? Are you dealing with loss through divorce or death?

Have you been dealing with symptoms of anxiety, depression, unresolved pain, or anger? How you feel impacts so many things- your relationships, your health, your sleep and your work. You may have tried making some changes to feel better on your own, however, you may be frustrated by your progress. You know things could be better. Finding a therapist you truly connect with can help you gain the skills you need to transform your life into one that feels calmer, more joyful and healthier.

Relationship habits with our intimate partners can create familiarity and easefulness—they can also inhibit a fresh and fulfilling way of being together. When relationship shortcuts create disconnection or even hurtful interactions, we feel misunderstood and not seen for our true hopes and intentions. I support you to slow down and connect in the present moment where the power resides to develop a whole-body intimacy with a partner. It is in the here and now where you can reawaken the creativity and integrity of your connection.

People often seek therapy because they need help with something they have not been able to resolve on their own. I am a licensed counseling psychologist and I view my purpose in therapy as providing insight and perspective, responding compassionately to concerns, and integrating a sense of humor. I strive to help people resolve their current problems in a way that also gives them the ability to deal with stressors in the future. Walker Psychological Services has private-pay and out-of-network openings available. Please call for more information.

I specialize in working with clients who experience chronic pain, autoimmune disorders, anxiety and depression. Maybe you have seen many doctors, physical therapists, etc and you are still suffering in pain. Maybe nothing you have tried has been successful and you are feeling invalidated by the medical community. Pain is a signal of danger that comes from the brain. When the brain assesses threat due to stress, trauma or a previous injury, it may use actual pain as a way to communicate that it believes you are in danger. I am certified in Pain Reprocessing Therapy to assist you in learning to help retrain your brain.
