AEDP Therapists in Colorado

Social abilities are critically important to life success! If you are struggling in relationships with family, friends, or co-workers, you probably already know that social problems can interfere with success in many areas of life. With therapy individualized to you, your partner, or your family, you can develop the critical skills needed for experiencing social success at home, work, or school.

At some point in life, perhaps now, a personal, relational, or professional crisis may pressure you toward a crossroad where you'll find yourself in unknown territory and possibly heading in a new direction. Such transitional times often feel unsettling and uncertain, even overwhelming; however, they can also be a turning point. Though difficult and often unwelcomed, this turning point can present a critical opportunity to make a real change, and finally address what you've struggled to resolve on your own, and no longer need to process alone.

Are you a therapist, healthcare provider, educator, leader, parent, and/or sensitive and caring human wanting to become more present and integrated so that you can fully show up in your life? My practice is rooted in body centered trauma approaches, nervous system regulation, mindfulness and compassion practices, attachment theory, and ketamine assisted therapy. Our work will support you to understand your history, reconnect to the innate wisdom of your internal experience and body, and transform your pain and challenges (like anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and relationship challenges) into growth, meaning, and resilience.

I have deep passion for helping individuals on their journey to healing, I specialize in working with those who are motivated to overcome complex trauma, anxiety, mood disorders, and personality disorders. I believe in the power of experiential therapy and the transformational potential of Narrative therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and ADEP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy). These therapeutic approaches form the cornerstone of our practice, guiding my clients toward a more profound understanding of their inner worlds and the narratives that shape their lives.

Are you feeling a disconnection between your body and mind, struggling to access your authentic self, or feeling strain in your relationship? Are these battles causing additional states? It's okay, and you're not alone. I am passionate about helping individuals and couples gain a deeper understanding of the roots of their attachment, how it impacts the nervous system, and how we can effectively address and unwind these patterns. Through therapy, we can reconnect, heal, and adapt to the challenges we encounter.

I have worked with clients who struggle with depression, anxiety/ trauma, insomnia, bipolar, etc. I look for patterns and evaluate systemic factors to assess sources of internal distress. Collaborating as a guide and creating safety is my main initial focus. At New Pathways, we also offer integrative healthcare services through psychiatric care using conventional medication and natural supplements for treating mental health. Studies show the best outcomes when utilizing both psychotherapy and medication management.

We are going to dig in deeper to foster healing. I will support and provide safety and comfort while undoing aloneness. Anxiety and/ or depression can feel exhausting and together, we'll explore core self and compassion to ease any discomfort. We are not our adverse experiences, we can re-wire. I will guide dealing with and healing attachment trauma, PTSD, and various abuses with kind, respectful and non-judgmental treatment. Through co-regulation of body awareness and experiencing inner core truths we'll foster healing "attunement!" I believe in your inner wisdom for transformation.

I provide culturally-aware counseling that honors the unique identities of my clients. Through a humanistic approach, I support clients who struggle with anxiety, emotional awareness and suppression, physical (somatic) symptoms of mental health, self-acceptance, perfectionism, dissociation, complex trauma, and developmental trauma such as abuse or neglect experienced in childhood. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming and also work with clients who have experienced spiritual and religious trauma/adverse experiences. My values of authenticity and creativity guide clients to connect more deeply with themselves and others.

Individual therapy can help you reconnect to your authentic self. You can feel better about you and be more effective in your work and family life. Whether your concerns stem from stress, old wounds, poor self-esteem, depression, anxiety, or mood problems you can regain balance and fulfillment in your life. Distressed couples and partners struggling with conflict and fear can learn to increase safety, trust and renewed love. Shared security and mutual support can be reestablished that will lead to satisfying communication and effective conflict resolution. True empowerment means that therapy doesn't stop when the session is over.

Are you hoping to improve your relationship? Are you worried you may be "too much" for your partner? Maybe you want to be a better partner but don't know how to? I am trained in PACT Therapy (Psychobiological Approach to Couple's Therapy), and Gottman Therapy, two specialized approaches to couples therapy. I have found that integrating these two styles of therapy quickly gives couples insight to the causes of their conflict or disconnection, and tangible ways to fix it. This allows each partner to understand themselves and their partner, improving connectedness and relationship satisfaction and decreasing conflict intensity.

Are you feeling alone in your pain? Do you feel stuck? And does the idea of opening up about your hurt feel overwhelming? I'd love to come alongside you to get unstuck. Whether your pain is rooted in trauma, grief, anxiety, or difficult relationships, we will work together to transform your suffering into meaning, change, and growth. Together, we will shift your old ways of relating to others into new and healthy connections and help you feel more rooted, aligned, and in congruence with yourself.

We, as humans, have an incredible potential for growth, but we often find life difficult; we feel stuck, alone, and uncertain. I believe that when we work through the hard things, we can find healing. I strive to create counseling relationships based on safety, trust, and hope, where people are accepted and challenged to grow in new and meaningful ways. I believe counseling is an opportunity to work through pain and suffering, develop resiliency which can be carried forward into life, and experience healing, freedom, purpose, and self-acceptance.

Trauma blocks love and connection, love heals trauma and restores connection with ourselves and others, healing from trauma creates opportunities to experience the goodness inherent in all of us. Counseling is a great way to access inner resources to permanently heal trauma and suffering we all carry from past and current relationships. As a therapist and scholar with 20+ years of experience, I am a Gottman Level III certified, AEDP Level II certified and IFS Level I certified therapist, I understand we cannot change the past however, I firmly believe we can permanently heal from it.

Dr. Hunter has over 20 years experience in the field of psychology and mind-body-spirit therapies. She is a psycho-spiritual therapist who helps clients gain access to their truest being and the light within. She seamlessly weaves together traditional psychotherapy with intuitive reading, meditation, Ketamine Assisted Therapy and somatic interventions. Her clients are able to shed patterns which no longer serve them and awaken the highest version of themselves. If you have tried traditional, talk therapy but are looking for something different or are a spiritual seeker by nature, Dr. Hunter may be the right fit for you.

A recent client told me “It's so validating and refreshing to be able to do therapy in a way that actually works for me after spending so many years in cognitive behavioral modalities that did very little for my trauma.” So many clients share the feeling of “undoing aloneness” in our sessions. This undoing of aloneness has helped clients reconcile and unburden themselves of trauma as well as feel thankful for being able to learn how to listen to their heart and their heart’s certainty of their worthiness. Our relationship has helped them to create a healing and grounding relationship with themselves...listening to their hearts.
