Eclectic Therapists in 80218

There are times in all of our lives that we need someone to talk to. Counseling can be a powerful resource in dealing with past hurts, trauma's, processing important life decisions, relationships and so much more. No matter what it is, you deserve to have someone walk with you in the journey of life. It is my belief that we are made up of mind, body and spirit and that we all desire to move towards being the best version of ourselves.

Are anxiety, depression, and trauma creating roadblocks in your life? Does it feel like there is a disconnect between you and the world around you? It is normal for the trauma stored in your body to create barriers to connection. Unfortunately, these barriers can be incredibly painful and difficult to cope with. You may be experiencing cycles of painful thoughts, days of numbness, or outbursts of anger.

Hello! My name is Mackenzie Clough and I am a LPC in Colorado. I received my MA degree in Counseling from Spring Arbor University in Detroit, Michigan and previously graduated with my Bachelors degree at the University of Windsor in Canada. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and I have worked with couples and families as well.  I believe that trust, authenticity, and openness create a strong therapeutic relationship and I believe that these qualities are what make therapy and counseling most effective.

Have you tried everything but sadness, loneliness or your relationship stays the same? You don’t have to suffer any longer. I understand the courage it takes to ask for help. Together, we'll transform pain and isolation into meaningful insight, self-love, connection and powerful, emotional strength. I’m a couples’ therapy expert and adult wellness specialist. I help heal relationships with parenting difficulties, affairs, religious or financial differences, intimacy issues and family conflict. I also specialize in helping adults navigating life transitions, and experiencing anxiety or depression.

Finding ourselves stuck in problems that we can't seem to figure out isn't uncommon and asking for help isn't easy, but it is a brave first step. My hope is that once I have the opportunity to get to know you and your unique experiences, I can help you to develop the skills to manage life's challenges in a way that you can be proud of. I have worked with children, families and adults and tailor my practice to the individuals I serve. I strive to create a space that is safe, non-judgemental and considers the complexity of your life.

NEW; now offering 30 minute sessions for busy folks! Asking for help is hard. In a culture that expects independence and perfection it is difficult to admit we DON'T have all the answers and might need help. Clients say things like 'I have no idea what is wrong with me, my life is just fine but I think I might be depressed." Folks may be drinking too much, sleeping too little, resisting relationships, questioning career choices, or facing financial instability but whatever the issues, solutions are more easily found in a close therapeutic relationship.

I will offer each new client a free initial consultation. My philosophy from working as a psychologist for over 25 years is that the relationship and trust between a client and therapist is an extremely important part of the healing process. You will find that I am a very good listener. My clients describe me as warm, compassionate, clear, caring, experienced and they have found our work together extremely helpful in their lives. I work Saturdays and Thursday (later afternoon and evening).

Growing up, I always knew that I was different. Intuitive, creative, sensitive and emotional, I knew that I didn't fit the mold I was given but I could not understand why. As a therapist, I work with others who feel that they do not fit - those of use who have felt discomfort in ourselves, discomfort in our families, discomfort in our communities. I believe that in order to truly understand who we are and who we want to become, we must explore the experiences that we’ve had and look at the impact they have had on us. Once we understand what we have to work with, we are free to chose the best ways to move forward on the journey.

Being a person isn't easy! Maybe anxiety is making life your own personal hell. Or perhaps you have found yourself losing all motivation to do the things that bring you joy. Maybe you're just looking for answers. If this sounds like you, you've come to the right person. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, and trauma.

My intention is to provide compassionate, trauma-informed care to all clients, intentionally providing space for the queer community and their families. I am warm, approachable, humorous, and strengths-based with clients. I use a variety of modalities to help people heal, grow and explore themselves including: nature-based therapy, experiential therapy, CBT, DBT, narrative therapy, and empowerment models.

Availability update: Sun-Wed AM + early afternoon in-person and/or telehealth. Finding a therapist is so much fun! Said no one, ever...We're likely a fit if you feel like others' don't get you/your lifestyle, consider yourself an outlier, or identify with a marginalized community, and/or is a high-risk/risk-taker. Also, if you use substances recreationally, medicinally, spiritually, and/or problematically I'd love to hear more and support your relationship with those substances. Contact me to schedule a free consultation and we can discuss more in detail than what 640 characters allow. Stay rad & be kind.

Relationships are a skill that require practice. Most of us have been exposed to, or surrounded by, poor models of relating. Whether you've observed or been involved in relationships characterized by avoidance, passive-aggression, people-pleasing, dishonesty, or abuse...there is hope. Can you be present with an open mind, spirit of curiosity, and a willingness to try new things? New patterns can be learned, and these patterns can replace the ones that cause disconnection and misunderstanding. Healing isn't always comfortable, but that's why they call it "growing pains" :)

Negative experiences shape how we think about ourselves, but they don't have to define us forever. We can learn new ways of relating to ourselves and the people around us via a variety of therapeutic modalities. With a therapist who can hold space for you with compassion and wisdom, you can overcome obstacles and cultivate resilient wellbeing. ​ I might be helpful to you if: You know what it is like to feel held back from life, but don’t know how to engage; You crave connection and community, but feel uncomfortable reaching out to others; You feel disconnected from your body – you may not recognize there is a disconnect.

Have you felt like lately everything around you seems a little heavier? You are NOT alone in this feeling. If it hasn’t always felt very easy to ask for help, maybe now is the time you’re able to try something different. I see individual adults working through life transitions, trauma, anxiety and depression, building self-esteem, identity exploration, interpersonal relationships, and anything else that might be weighing them down.

Are you in your twenties? Does life feel unmanageable? Overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, self-doubt, or the direction of your life? We're here to help! Like many people in their twenties, you may be wondering what to do with your life. Your twenties can leave you feeling STUCK, ANXIOUS & DEPRESSED. If your emotions or concerns about your future seem to be getting the best of you, give us a call! One of our clinicians will be happy to help. (Please be advised, there is currently a national mental health crisis and the doctors at Integrative Therapeutic Solutions are diligently triaging care for all new patient requests.)

I believe in a holistic approach to therapy, and I do my best to ensure that treatment is tailored specifically to each client. I do not follow a “one-size-fits-all” approach. As a therapist, I emphasize the therapeutic relationship between the client and therapist, as I think that this the foundation and key to successful therapy.

If you’re reading this, maybe you’re feeling called to something more. You know your existence can be so much more connected, so much more fulfilling. The fact that you’ve found this page means you’ve already taken a huge first step towards creating the life and relationships that you deserve. The clients I work with are invested in creating meaningful change for themselves. They are seekers of their own truths and relentless explorers of themselves and the world around them. They want to heal, to live, and to be seen as their full authentic selves. Whatever is holding you back, know that there is a path towards something more.

We all struggle at times, whether we are experiencing anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, trauma or just feeling stuck and unsure how to move forward in our lives. These times can feel frustrating, overwhelming and exhausting! Come to a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can share your emotional struggles, pain and stress. Together, we can create effective strategies for healing and self-acceptance, discover and develop your inner strengths, resources and joy and allow you to more fully enjoy life. I bring years of experience, compassion and a sense of humor to the therapy room. My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming.

Thanks for checking out my profile. My name is Keith Swain and over the last 29 years I have worked as a psychotherapist and a college professor. I’ve learned a secret over that time: very few people have a true mental illness. Over my career I may have seen 5 or 6 truly mentally ill people. The rest? Folks like you and me - good people, just moving through life when, wham, something bad happens. If this were a problem with your car, at first you’d feel angry, or lost, or maybe afraid then you’d call a trusted mechanic. This time, it’s your life that’s off a bit and you’re looking for a trusted “life mechanic.” Good; you found him.
