Lacking direction and purpose, questioning your choices, waking up in the middle of the night thinking of all the things to do? Life, and all the transitions in it, has a way of bringing us to the edge of our capacity, and letting us lose our sense of self. Therapy can help you rework your potential and get to the place that you want to be.

I specialize in working with clients who are struggling to adapt to a medical illness or life change. My focus is on helping you maintain a sense of well-being and normalcy in the face of unique and often distressing circumstances. Treatment can include addressing grief and loss, symptoms of depression and anxiety and existential questions such as "why me?" I work with patients with a variety of health issues including: cancer, infertility, cardiac disease and women's health, including postpartum depression. Through my focus on women's health I also help mom's adjust to ups and downs of parenting.

I provide Individual counseling and couples counseling in Arvada, Colorado (West Denver.) I particularly enjoy working with Highly Sensitive People (HSPs). Specialties include improving communication skills with couples and working with trauma, anxiety, depression, illness, and grief. I use EMDR for treating grief and trauma.

Hishara is a licensed Marriage and Family therapist who works with children, adolescents, adults, families and couples from diverse cultures. She uses a holistic, client-centered, cultural-oriented and strength-based perspective in her work. Hishara will also engage in animal assisted therapy with her "official" side-kick Lava, when it is therapeutically appropriate. She treats a wide range of individual and relational issues, meets people where they're at in their journey towards healing and works within their reality to help them recognize and build on their own strengths to face and overcome challenges.

I enjoy working with couples and individuals in all walks of life. I work with couples to understand feeling/expressing love, improving communication and working on relationship skills.

Are you and your partner struggling to communicate? Have you lost that spark in your relationship? Are you a parent who has lost connection with your teenager or child? Do you feel lost and overwhelmed? I decided to be a couple and family therapist because I know how hard relationships can be and that sometimes we need a little help. There is no shame in asking for help. We are all imperfect and are not born with a roadmap on how to navigate troubled relationships and family. I believe all people are capable of meaningful and transformational change. Let me help.

Dealing with trauma and past hurts, struggling with work, relationships, or addiction, managing depression & anxiety or to better understand one's gender identity or sexuality - it isn't easy to address any of these things. I see therapy as a safe, judgment-free, shame-free, and confidential space, where you are free to vent, confide, cry, discuss, imagine, find strength, and be empowered. Most importantly, therapy is a place for hope to come alive, to learn new coping skills, to achieve personal growth, and to discover you are strong, valuable, and greater than any struggle you might have. Change is possible!

I believe that everyone should have the opportunity to heal and reconnect. Therapy can be an intimidating journey and as a therapist I strive to create an environment for my clients that feels caring and supportive, welcoming all emotions and experiences into the space. I work with my clients to better themselves at the pace they feel ready to work at while establishing trust and compassion. In my counseling work I offer client centered approaches, tailoring to each clients individual needs while building a therapeutic relationship. I am passionate about holding space for trauma and specialize in working with teens and young adults.

Pain is an experience that can feel scary, isolating, and everlasting. Whether it be emotional, physical, mental, or relational, pain takes on many forms and can disguise itself in different ways.

Would you like to experience a deep and radical transformation in your life? Do you believe that everything in life happens for a reason, but you're not always sure what it is? How would you like to achieve the highest expression of your soul in this lifetime? Every night our soul is speaking to us through our dreams, but often we don't know how to interpret the message. As a portal to the source of who we are, dreams guide us to our deepest healing, our highest potential, and the connections that assure us we are on the right path.

Life can feel overwhelming - at times it would be nice to take one long vacation and hope everything would be fixed when you return. Or perhaps it feels like it would be too awful to tell someone what was really going on, or what has happened in the past. Through compassionate listening, empathy, and curiosity, I help individuals reclaim strength and healing.

When we experience hardship without community support, we learn to defend against emotions that would be simply too much to hold alone. I identify as a pansexual genderqueer woman and I honor therapy as a space where all of our identities are important. I work with the nervous system and show up as my real, genuine self. My clients typically come to therapy when their defenses hold them back from loving relationships or a fulfilling life.

People seek counseling for a number of reasons. What ever your reason, I am ready to be an objective helper in your life.
