Are you feeling stuck, disconnected, depressed, anxious, or overwhelmed in life or with your relationships? Are you having trouble knowing and communicating your thoughts and feelings to your partner? Whether you find yourself facing a dilemma or wanting more out of life, navigating these moments becomes easier when we understand and deepen our relationships with our selves, our emotional experiences, and with others. Through person-centered and experiential interventions, I can help you move into a place of safety, confidence, and healing so that you can feel like yourself again and be present for yourself and with loved ones.

Everyone has a story. I want to hear your story, whether you are depressed and suicidal, have parenting challenges, are struggling with relationship boundaries, or finding where you fit in this world. I believe in you as a human being, a relational being, a spiritual being. Professionally, I am a seasoned therapist with almost 30 years of experience, including over a decade of which involved assessing people in crisis, supporting those struggling with medical issues, and connecting people to community resources. Personally, I am an adoptive parent of five children.

If there is anything you should know about me, it is that I am passionate about my work as a psychotherapist. I love working with clients toward the changes they want to make in their lives. Therapy takes courage and I am humbled by that. It is an honor to share in people's lives. Therapy is a collaborative process. The most critical ingredient to successful therapy is the relationship you build with your therapist. If you don't feel comfortable, it will be difficult to share your deepest emotions and vulnerabilities.

Bringing home a new baby is a time filled with joy and happiness, but for some reason you don't feel that way, and find yourself feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, irritated, your mind is filled with scary thoughts, or worry that something bad may happen to your baby. Maybe you haven't shared these thoughts with anyone else for fear of judgment or that someone will take your baby away or think you're not fit to be a mother. All of these unwanted thoughts and feelings leave you wondering if you will ever feel yourself again and find relief.

My practice focuses on integrating one's body and mind awareness. I work well with clients who are interested in building their resilience as opposed to examining pathologies. I believe you have the innate ability to heal in a safe and nurturing environment.

Welcome! I'm Colleen Nelson, MA, LPC, EMDR - a Colorado Licensed Professional Counselor and mother of two. With a decade in practice and experience at Children's Hospital, I specialize in adolescent challenges like school refusal, anxiety, and tech dependency, using direct therapy and somatic techniques for emotional and behavioral growth. Trained in EMDR and experienced in various issues, I aim for family healing. Understanding the need for a supportive environment, I strive to meet adolescents where they are, fostering open communication and growth. Let's embark on a journey to unlock potential and foster well-being together.

I am passionate about creating a safe space to allow vulnerability and openness, which help facilitate growth and change for my clients. I enjoy working with individuals age 10 and up, and also enjoy working with couples and families. I am experienced with working with a wide range of presenting problems including (but not limited to!) trauma, anxiety, life transitions, substance use, chronic illnesses, grief and loss, couples and family issues. I also am an ally, and proud to cultivate a safe space for the LGBTQ+ community.

Let’s work together to lighten your human experience. It is courageous to admit when you need a bit of help. The process of therapy is collaborative, and we are in this together. Progress in life starts with clarity in your mental health and wellbeing. My motivation as a therapist is to offer you a safe space to share and navigate life’s challenges. Together we will tailor where you want to take your journey and how you want to get there. Life transitions, relationships and self-work can feel heavy and isolating. Sessions are client-focused, in a confidential environment where you are encouraged to express and process all emotions.

Are you struggling with your partner? Does your family feel out of control? Do you wonder how life became so unmanageable? I work with people struggling just like you. Using an attachment focused therapy, we'll work together to create secure connections and reduce anxiety. This approach has profound effects for couples with relationship and sexuality issues, social anxiety, recovering from trauma, or reengineering their life. I work with families, parents, and children recovering from trauma, illness, grief, loss, moving, and divorce.

If you feel disconnected from yourself and others, or find it difficult to live each moment fully, you may be carrying unresolved trauma. You are worthy of feeling whole and I'm here to support you in reconnecting with your authentic self. Together, we can develop an inner protector for your wounded inner child. This looks like developing a practice of self-compassion, boosting mindfulness, embracing vulnerability and imperfection, responding to challenging emotions, healing attachment wounds, and integrating traumatic experiences. I sincerely believe in our capacity to transform your trauma into post-traumatic growth.

Raising children often comes with unexpected challenges. In her practice, Anne Roche utilizes a Family Systems Approach in combination with techniques from Applied Behavior Analysis in order to improve family functioning. She assists children with regulating their emotions, modifying behaviors, and improving communication skills. Typically, this also involves providing parents with the tools they need to meet their child’s unique needs. Anne’s goal is to offer a safe and nonjudgmental space where all family members can reach their fullest potential.

I would like to pair my knowledge about mental health with your lived experience and to help you create your own solutions. I provide an inclusive and non-judgmental space for all that walk through my door. Diversity is what creates beauty in this world and as such I strive for cultural sensitivity, body positivity, LGBTQIA+ rights and neurodivergence affirming.

If you have ever experienced sexual assault, abuse, the loss of a loved one, or a toxic relationship you are already a survivor. You might feel really lost and alone, but you don't have to be. Oftentimes when people have been through significant traumas they continue through life thinking they will be fine, but they are continuously haunted by anxiety and depression. If you have experienced any of these traumatic situations you likely have also experienced narcissistic abuse within your family. This kind of trauma and abuse can make it difficult to function in healthy relationships as an adult. -now offering EMDR
