Only you can truly appreciate how you came to be the person you are today. We can choose to engage in life and with each other from a position of fear or a position of possibility. I believe counseling is all about possibility - the possibility of discovering your voice, the possibility of seeing something new in your reflection, the possibility of personal growth, and the possibility of finding your own deep light.

Are you successful in your life, but feel like there is something that is holding you back from being the person that you want to be? Do you work in a high profile or high pressure job and worry about finding a counselor that can hold your intensity and face the darkness you want to heal from? Are you a member of the queer community who would love a counselor who understands the culture and would be honored to walk beside you? If you answered yes to any of these questions, I would love for you to contact me so we can meet and see if we may be the best fit for the experience that awaits you. I am excited to meet you.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with a passion for nature-based services, spiritual practices, and expressive arts. Combining art, spirituality and nature results in a unique and empowering experience for clients of all ages. People are free to discover and share their life experiences in a safe and honoring environment. Sharing one's pain and experiences can be hard, and I strive to be a compassionate, warm and understanding listener. Each person's life story is sacred, and there are a myriad of gifts waiting to be discovered and embraced. Much of my work is with Highly Sensitive People and empathic intuitives.

I combine Dance Movement Therapy (DMT) & Aquatic Therapy (AT), Geek therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) & Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to assist clients in moving toward balance. DMT is psychotherapeutic use of movement to promote emotional, social, cognitive, & physical integration of the person. AT is use of water & specifically designed activity to aid in restoration, extension, maintenance & quality of function for persons with acute, transient, or chronic disabilities, syndromes, or diseases. Geek Therapy combines fandom & concepts clients relate to with CBT, DBT and other approaches to address client needs.

We'll restore and develop your self-awareness to identify your most important priorities. I'll help you work through past trauma to build your ideal future. My office is a safe place to let out all of the things you keep bottled up for the sake of "strength" because "grown-ups don't cry." Take the leap, call me today for a free consultation. You'll be so glad you did.

Are you struggling w/ how you habitually think and feel, painful things you've been through like loss or trauma, or are you just not getting what you want out of life? Do you not like yourself very much or feel guilt about how you feel or what you're not doing? Do you lack direction or meaning? I do therapy with people who want more clarity and skills to cope with anxiety, low mood, and shame. I specialize in all loss, but as a motherless mom myself, I often work with women who have lost their moms. I also love working w/ those who've left religion & need to explore beliefs & sense of self, & cope w/ the loss of what they had.

Brianna has spent the past five years of her professional career specializing in trauma.

When working with children and adolescents, Brianna is uniquely equipped to provide experiential therapies (play therapy and art therapy), that have proven healing outcomes. Brianna has extensive training in social justice based therapy and invites clients from all backgrounds, spiritualities, sexualities, and gender identities into a healing therapeutic relationship.

I know how to help with the struggles a family or kid may be facing whether it be behavioral or emotional. I can and will help families or children deal with their day to day problems and issues that can be more complex as well. I have worked with clients aged anywhere from 6-80 years of age. I typically work with children and teenagers but I have a passion for helping adults in anyway I can as well.

Active Military, Veterans, First Responders, & their families serve in a way that many do not understand. They have chosen a career that comes with great honor, and also can come with great challenges. At Operation Equine, we have the compassion, training, & expertise to help you address and work through those challenges, whether you choose to come by yourself, with a spouse/partner, your family, or a group of colleagues. If you are a Health Care Practitioner or business who is called to work with those who serve and would like to be more culturally competent in doing so, we would be honored to assist you to serve them better.

When people experience trauma, severe life stressors, or even experience change of any kind, it is not uncommon for their lives to unravel. My passion and greatest gift is bringing healing to people who have been through a traumatic/stressful experience. I help my clients, children, adults, and families, including the very young (ages 2-5), find healthy perceptions of themselves and strengthen their relationships so they can know themselves as restored, complete, whole, and safe.

I believe that counseling is a journey that allows you -- often for the first time -- to be fully seen. It is through this safe relationship that you can reveal your entire self, including the parts of you that hold the most shame. You can take the brave dive into the deep, painful parts of yourself and begin to gain compassion for your humanness. In our work together you will learn the art of self-compassion and how it can be an invaluable tool to help heal wounds and ignite positive change.

My background includes training in physiology and psychology allowing me the ability to use a holistic, mind-body approach in my practice. I specialize in working with people who have experienced significant trauma and have difficulties coping with everyday life. I work with children and adults. In my work with children, I do play therapy at my play clinic in Aurora. I see adult clients for psychotherapy at my office in Glendale. The type of therapy I do is deeper work to reach the root of one's problems. In addition to working with survivors of trauma, I work with people who experience delusions, hallucinations, and psychosis.

You, you and your partner, your family, your children. You are all my ideal client. As a Licensed Marriage, Family, and Child Therapist, I am specifically trained to treat you. I understand family dynamics, how relationships work (or don't) and how brain development factors into behavior. No matter the trouble--whether it's your child acting out, addictions, relationships, fighting between siblings, depression, or past trauma that keeps tripping you up--together, we can design a treatment plan to help you heal and move on! Life is too short to hurt when you can be whole. Call me!

The relationship between client and therapist is essential to successful therapy. I seek to establish an empathetic, trusting relationship with clients, which provides the context for a deeper understanding of oneself and the difficulties bringing them to therapy. From this relational foundation, I work collaboratively with clients to find solutions to their problems.

There are seasons of life when unexpected challenges, loss and seemingly ever-higher expectations can emotionally overwhelm us. During these times, we are not ourselves. Unwanted repetitive thoughts can disrupt our sleep. We may isolate from the friends and activities we previously enjoyed. Counseling can ease the heavy burden of life's challenging circumstances. As a counselor, I appreciate the courage it takes to ask for help. I also appreciate the unspoken hope that things can change.

There’s no greater freedom than living in your true self, a self authentically and lovingly connected to others. It’s how we are built. It’s how our children are built. Living the kind of balance many of us aspire to looks a heck of lot easier in print than it is in action. It takes work to integrate it all, but it is so worth it. I bring 14 years of doctoral + post-doctoral level training and 27 years of experience to best individualize the care. In Aspen, convenient therapy, consult and fun Developmental Play sessions. From California/Colorado, you may establish online adult/adolescent therapy that keep up with you on the go.

At some point in life, we come upon a challenge beyond anything we've ever encountered or tried to manage. We may find ourselves at a crossroad, or even the end of a road, facing an unknown path. Such times are often unsettling, even overwhelming, especially when we're also experiencing depression, anxiety, loss and grief. As tough as these transitions may feel, they can also become a turning point where we finally address what has previously been too difficult to face alone. When we allow ourselves to feel deeply heard and unconditionally understood by someone truly attuned to us, the experience can be life changing.

Do you feel you are not reaching your potential? Are you tired of trying so hard but not getting the results you want and need? Are you frequently anxious, depressed, stressed or feel lost? I have a 'virtual office' and you can explore your personal or professional challenges from the comfort of your home, office or car! I have over 25 years of training and practical experience to help you, your children and/or your family. I use a gentle (and even fun) approach to coaching and therapy that feels easier for most people to deal with than traditional therapy. My clients do better when they know better! I can be that guide for you.

Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, relationships/family issues, or if you lack meaning, purpose, or fufillment in life...there is hope. As a therapist I am committed to meeting you where you are and working with you to give you the help you need to live a healthy, balanced, satisfying life. I strive to provide warmth, understanding, and empathy as well as encouragement and support as you take the steps toward change and a more fulfilling life.
