Therapists in Colorado

“My partner and I feel worlds apart.” “I am struggling setting boundaries in my relationships.” “I don’t feel like my family is as close as we used to be.” “I’m tired of having the same argument.” I’d love to help you. My name is Peyton and I am passionate about helping people be the best version of themselves and living life with deeper and more meaningful connections.

Don't go without support during these stressful times. It is easy to get stuck in the mundane and feel like life is stagnant, or on hold. This road can be met with many obstacles. Some we must learn to accept and some we must conquer. I help facilitate change and move you forward from past and current challenges. I assist you in gaining more self awareness, and teach you the tools needed to embrace difficult situations. The goal is to be free from worrying about the future, and replaying the past. Life transitions can cause a disruption in homeostasis. I am here to help you find balance and confidence in your decisions.

My name is Andrea Spencer and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Clinical Supervisor in Colorado. Therapy takes tremendous courage and I am grateful for every client that chooses to share their story with me. I strive to provide a welcoming, nonjudgmental, therapeutic environment to connect with clients. I focus on meeting them where they are in their story and work alongside them to gain insight and make positive changes in their lives. I want every client to live their life as free and as fully as they were meant to.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and am working on finishing my requirements to be a Licensed Addiction Counselor as well. I joined the JFS Boulder team October 2023. Prior to this, I have worked in hospital settings providing inpatient psychotherapy and psychiatric evaluations. I have also spent time providing school-based psychotherapy as part of a grant funded program. I am originally from Illinois, but after moving to Denver for graduate school have been proud to call Colorado home for over 4 years now. I completed my master’s degree in forensic psychology in 2021 at DU.

Welcome! I am a LPCC that specializes in work with children, adolescents and adults who are experiencing a wide array of concerns related to relationships, emotional regulation or life transitions. For many, seeking out counseling can be a scary and intimidating first step towards change. As a counselor, my first goal is to create a trusting, therapeutic relationship in the counseling room, and to use this relationship as an agent for change. In session, I'll help uncover patterns in your life that no longer serve you and help you find new ways of being in the world.

Many of us feel like we are “stuck in a rut,” collecting some not-so-helpful habits and coping strategies throughout the years like souvenirs from trauma gone by.

Are you or your child struggling to deal with conflict, or stress, in a way that feels healthy and effective? Have the tensions at home or in your relationship become overwhelming?

Congratulations on courageously taking the first step by investigating counselors. I know it is scary. None of us are perfect, and asking for help is okay. Do you feel like your life is "The Matrix," a hopeless, joyless, purposeless treadmill? Or like "Princess Bride," that "life is pain," and anyone who says differently is selling something? Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired? Often, we feel overwhelmed, isolated, discouraged, anxious, depressed, or broken, and we may not know how to find our way through to the other side.

Therapy can be a helpful place to start really figuring that out. My goal is to be that guide for you and to provide a space that welcomes creativity, curiosity, and a sense of humor as you work to redefine your life worth living.
