Growth is often uncomfortable, messy, and full of feelings you weren't expecting , but it's necessary-Author Unknown. I enjoy working with young adults experiencing trauma, anxiety or depression using Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Cognitive Behavior therapy. I recently received certification in Anxiety Treatment for Adolescents and Adults. I am a practical and compassionate person that you give you a safe place to share thoughts and feelings while changing, behaviors and patterns that may be inter-generational or have started with you.

Hi, I'm Gina Gardner-Wood, LCSW. I am the practice owner of Hope and Healing Therapy. Many of us experience feelings of anxiety, depression and hopelessness, as well as triggers surrounding a traumatic event or history of trauma. You don't have to suffer alone! As a trained trauma therapist, I utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which is an extensively researched, extremely effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and other distressing events.

I am so glad you are here! Finding support or someone to talk to can be overwhelming and confusing. My focus is with individuals who may be experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, loss, isolation possibly due to serious illness, end of life issues, caregiver fatigue life transition or the death of a loved one. Additionally, I offer clinical supervision for those seeking their LCSW.

My approach to therapy is primarily Cognitive Behavioral. Strong evidence supports the effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for helping individuals with a wide range of problems, including Depression, Anxiety and ADHD. I also incorporate the use of other therapeutic approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment, Relational, Interpersonal and Psychodynamic Therapy. My initial goal is to create a safe therapeutic environment. I work with clients to reach an agreement on the goals. As therapy proceeds, we will evaluate progress toward those goals and work together to make therapy as effective for you as possible.

Collaborative and flexible is what I would describe my therapeutic approach. Therapy work with me isn't just talking about your feelings. Our work will include various options for you to choose from such as creating art, writing, watching a video, playing games, etc. Your options are limitless in my therapy sessions. My goal is to be training wheels on your bike and support and guide you until you are able to "ride" by yourself. I hope to provide a safe and authentic space for my clients to explore and process their emotions and thoughts, express themselves, and heal from past experiences.

I am a licensed professional counselor in the Arvada/Westminster area specializing in panic/anxiety, depression, and Spiritual concerns, including Atheism, Agnosticism, and Secular questioning. In addition, I provide Mindfulness Based psychotherapy in the areas of grief and loss, life transitions, and women's issues.

Ever feel like you are not enough or that some days it is hard to get out of bed? Do you feel like life is overwhelming? Has a past trauma or loss kept you from living life fully? I believe that these thoughts, feelings, and emotions can play into depression, anxiety, PTS and other less helpful coping skills. Through growth and development you will experience a fuller life and feelings will start to be manageable and you can imagine going through life with a clear sense of self. As Carl Rogers said "The curious paradox is when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change".

Looking for better Communication and Connection in your relationships? You want to get along better with your spouse, partner, kids, parents and coworkers. I can give you the skills necessary to start you on the path to better communication and connection with everyone in your life. Lowering your anxiety and feeling better starts with you. Come in on your own or with those close to you.

I welcome you to a safe and nurturing space to embark on your therapeutic journey at your own pace. With a profound passion for facilitating transformative healing and mental health, I collaborate with clients to identify and move through the unique challenges that prohibit them from living their fullest, most authentic lives. I firmly believe healing is not a one-size-fits-all process. With a diverse skill set, and wide array of therapeutic modalities, sessions are tailored to meet the unique needs of each client who walks through my door.

Hi, my name is Johni Mitchell. I would love to work with couples who are wanting to learn to slow down, communicate in a way that is meaningful, emotional, and leaves both partners feeling heard and understood. Couples who want to rebuild trust after a betrayal or infidelity. Couples who feel they have lost what they once had and aren't sure how to get it back. I also love to work with individuals who are seeking to make changes in their relationships while also exploring and understanding yourself deeper.

Over the white cis-gender dominated everything? Same. Let's unlearn social norms and build more meaning together!

Life does not always go according to plan. We experience many things that are outside of our control, but they leave a lasting impact on us as human beings. Life is a journey that is not meant to be walked alone, but instead in relationships and with vulnerability and openness. Therapy is an opportunity to build skills and resources to process and navigate life's everyday challenges. Asking for help and finding someone to share your burden with is a great show of strength and courage! For the quickest response please visit my web page and fill out a contact form.

I use an integrated approach in my therapeutic relationship with my clients. I am certified as a Mental Health Integrative Medicine Provider so will want to explore all areas of your healthcare and daily habits that could be effecting your mental health. I believe healing happens when we are able to connect to our true selves: spiritually, emotionally, physically and socially. I am interested in you as a whole person. I will want to know about your sleep, diet, exercise relationships, etc. I am also certified as a Clinical Trauma Professional and use evidence based practices including EMDR. I work very closely with Veterans.

Do you ever feel trapped by the day’s tasks and doubt your ability to make it through them? Do you feel like you’re just going through the motions while being weighed down in the process? Perhaps you find yourself saying, “I’m tired” a lot as an excuse for your low mood or become quiet because you don’t have the energy to talk. Have you been told to “snap out of it” or that depression is an excuse or something one “chooses” to get? Maybe you find yourself using your phone excessively because – let’s face it – sometimes it’s easier to hide our struggles online.

Are you having a difficult time communicating with your loved one? Do you want love, positivity, affection & support out of your relationships? Do you feel like you're banging your head against a wall every time you talk to each other? I am here to help. At Kindred Therapy, PLLC I specialize in working with couples & families who are in distress. We ALL hit road bumps in our relationships & we sometimes need a non biased third party to help everyone get back on track. I am a natural skeptic, so I only used evidence-based, brief psychotherapy modalities that are designed for your relationship to get relief as soon as possible.

I believe that we are resilient and as we heal from emotional wounds, we allow our true selves to emerge and flourish. I love my work, value my clients and know that therapy eases suffering and promotes personal growth and change. I have experience working in mental health and addiction fields as well as in medical and hospice settings. I've had the opportunity to work with women, men, adolescents and older adults coping with addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression, relationships, grief, caregiver strain and other life transitions.

Life brings plenty of hardship and pain; experiences that can cause us to feel like we're alone and living in darkness. It takes courage to reach out and ask for help and I am excited to help you on your path to healing. I believe everyone has a story worth sharing and something important to offer this world and I look forward to helping you discover that. Together we can create a safe and compassionate environment where we can begin to address your concerns.
