Therapists in Broomfield, CO

Does your pain feel like it is continually affecting your present? Does your past impede your joy in your relationships, career, hobbies, and goals? Do you feel ready to find freedom from the things that are weighing you down? If you feel like any of the questions above resonate for you, it is time to find healing. Experiencing pain in life is inevitable – being stuck in pain is not. Working through the root causes of your current struggles will allow you to experience joy and peace to a greater capacity. I am committed to partnering with clients to help them do just that.

"We don't have to do all of it alone. We were never meant to."-Brene Brown. I whole heartedly believe that healing occurs when we invite others to step into our story and walk along side us in times of struggle, hurt, and unknown. Because of this, I consider it an honor and privilege to be able to join you in your search for healing and wholeness. Although I am equipped to work with individuals in any stage of life I am especially passionate about working with children, teens, and young adults struggling with anything from anxiety and depression to trauma and self discovery.

People struggling with addictions, relationship issues, parenting concerns, life transitions, those supporting someone with an addiction, and adult children of dysfunctional families find my therapy style most helpful. My presence is direct but warm. You might be interested in working with me if you have interest in Internal Family Systems, mindfulness-based tools, and learning about neuroscience. I utilize the beautiful landscape of Colorado for nature-based therapy and to integrate psychedelic-assisted medicine sessions for those who are a good fit. I believe in the capacity of every human to make change in their own life.

Do you want more freedom and ease, but when it comes to making lasting change that gets to the root of the issue, you have run out of ideas and patience and want support from someone who understands and can help facilitate growth? My goal is to help support your journey of discovery through inquiry and exploration. Together we will work to create more freedom and choice in thought, action, and feeling- transformation from the inside out. I work with individuals and couples across a wide variety of issues including relational stress, trauma, anxiety, depression, personal growth, and career and life transition.

Are you ready to break down that wall and finally connect to the world around you? To live without painful memories and emotional flashbacks? Trauma - especially complex trauma - affects everything: your humanity, your identity, your ability to thrive. My clients often experience a negative self-image, depression, severe emotional ups and downs, and a near-constant sense of dread. Worst of all, they feel like they don’t know themselves and can’t relate to other people. This is not surprising considering my clients usually have a history of childhood abuse and/or neglect exacerbated by boundary violations in adulthood.

Do you find yourself caught in a loop of always trying hard but never feeling like enough? Do you hear your inner voice overthinking and being critical far too often? Maybe you can recall anxiousness or concern from a young age and struggle to feel truly connected to others. Changing these ways may feel impossible and stepping out of these patterns can seem daunting but you may feel that little revolt within to break away from these cycles. That part boldly dreams of a new era filled with confidence, genuine connections, and healing.

If you self-identify as a perfectionist, high-achiever, people-pleaser or a gifted, HSP or other neurodivergent individual, then you have found the right place! I help unique individuals increase their self-esteem and confidence in their self-worth while also teaching boundary-setting techniques and getting to the root of why accepting yourself is so hard. My specialties are relationship trauma, religious trauma, attachment pattern and self-awareness skill-building, couples work, and specific techniques for navigating life as an HSP or gifted individual. Many clients come to me for deeper work such as IFS or EMDR after trying CBT.

At times we all find ourselves conflicted and unsure about next steps in life. I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) parts work and other evidence-based approaches to help my clients heal inner wounds, resolve relationship conflicts and help them discover their true essence, congruency and peace within and the world around. Through mind-body connection we can uncover and transform conscious and unconscious schemas/beliefs driving your life and release the constraints that are holding you back from moving forward.

I believe that we are all born on this planet as whole, worthy human beings. I also believe that our various lived experiences — including trauma in all its forms — can have a big impact on our beliefs about ourselves and the ways we show up in the world. As a therapist, my goal is to help you get back in touch with your most authentic Self and uncover whatever it is that's preventing you from living your most joyful life. I work from a person-centered, collaborative, and integrative perspective, offering a non-judgmental space for clients to explore all parts of themselves.

It is your right as a human being to have fruitful, loving, and supportive relationships with others and yourself. Often, we are brought out of alignment with this truth. We come to believe that we are not deserving of love and kindness or that others are incapable of giving us these things. Therapy provides a connected space for us to explore our needs & desires, our fears & hopes. I work mostly with: LGBTQ+, non-monogamy and polyamory, relationship work, conflict resolution, gender identity and transition, queer clients, infidelity & affairs, sex and intimacy, gender-affirming care referral letters.

As a counselor specializing in guiding adults through grief, bereavement, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions, I offer a warm welcome to accompany you. You are invited to step into a compassionate space for healing. Amidst the range of emotions – from profound sadness to fleeting relief and moments of anxiety or depression – know you're not alone. If you are seeking support to find transformative healing and learn coping skills, know that with warmth and empathy, you and I will navigate these feelings together. Are you ready to unlock pathways to growth, renewal, resilience, and strength discovery?

She is trained in psychodynamic, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitation Reprocessing) and IFS (Internal Family Systems) approaches. She has over a decade or experience in the mental health field working with a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, PTSD, complex trauma, bipolar disorder, ADHD and life transitions. Her passion and expertise is helping people better understand how they are in relationship with others, healing from past traumas and navigating unjust systems.

I love helping clients discover how one's personal history relates to their current functioning. If we look deeply enough, our symptoms make sense! I remind clients there's nothing fundamentally wrong with them; they can heal and make great progress. I help people discharge and reprocess trauma using somatic therapies, EMDR, IFS, TRE's, EFT and more to spark the body's natural healing mechanisms, to calm the central nervous system and facilitate peaceful, healthier living. I have openings for KAP, Multi-Day Intensives and insurance-paid sessions online (through Sondermind) on Tuesdays. Feel free to email me for available times :)

Are you struggling with navigating a complex or “toxic” relationship? Despite advice to leave, you feel unable to make a decision? Through exploring past family patterns and attachment styles we’ll illuminate the barriers blocking your relationship growth. I equip clients with new communication tools, incorporating Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and help clients tune into their own inner voice (using Somatic mind/body work). We experientially practice these skills together in a safe, nonjudgmental environment. Additionally, I am an experienced career counselor and guide clients through career transitions and finding fulfillment.

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.

We all face difficult moments that can test our strength and leave a deep impression on us. These experiences can make us feel overwhelmed and weighed down, alone, and It can be tough to know where to turn for help, especially when we're dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship challenges. I understand that the process of seeking therapy can be daunting and overwhelming. I aim to create a collaborative and empowering therapeutic relationship where you feel heard, validated, and supported.

I specialize in person-centered, humanistic counseling. I believe that the counseling relationship is the biggest predictor for successful outcomes. I hold my clients in the highest regard and create a space to process what may be keeping you stuck so you can gain clarity to move forward. Counseling can soften the sharp edges of the unknown, help provide new perspectives, and turn uncertainty into hope. Create meaningful and intentional change with genuine support and connection. I will lead you back to your values with acceptance and compassion. Find your way through this chapter and build a solid foundation for the next.

Experiences of anxiety, depression, and trauma take a massive toll on our lives and relationships, often leaving us feeling out of control, disconnected, and dissatisfied. However, I believe that healing is not only possible, but is something that we are naturally moving toward, even when it doesn't feel that way. As a therapist, I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can reconnect to that natural impulse toward healing.

The path through life can be difficult and leave you feeling overwhelming and stuck. In turn, it becomes challenging to feel like yourself and enjoy everyday activities. I believe that getting in touch with your authentic self will help you face those blocks that hold you back.
