Struggling through emotional difficulties can feel overwhelming. Friends and family may not have the tools to help you get your life back on track. Coming to therapy is a tremendous step to facilitate change. I provide an empathic and understanding environment to help clients work through their problems. I believe that a genuine and real connection between therapist and client is a key component of the therapeutic process. My belief is that in order to change oneself, a fuller understanding of oneself must occur. Working together, we can explore issues and meet your counseling needs.

I'm a clinical psychologist providing individual therapy for adults and adolescents. If you're here, then you're probably looking for a change. Life can be unpredictable, complicated, and demanding. Low self-esteem, unpleasant moods, challenging relationships, and academic/professional stressors can be difficult to navigate alone. Together we can determine what a change may look like for you and develop strategies for moving towards that change. I view therapy as a collaborative process -- a joint effort towards feeling more connected, satisfied, and adaptable. I work with professionals, students, artists, musicians, parents, and many other individuals.

Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness. We aim to cultivate hope in all our clients. We work with adolescents and adults to overcome complex and difficult to treat problems, including substance abuse, trauma, depression, anxiety, self-harm, suicide, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), relationship issues, and overwhelming emotions. We often deal with more than one problem at a time. Our passion is helping people who struggle with multiple problems build a fulfilling and meaningful life.

Currently accepting new clients. Welcome! I’m a queer and neurodivergent therapist who is passionate about supporting members of my communities (and beyond) in finding healing and transformation. I’m not here to ‘fix’ you, because somewhere within you, you're already whole. What I am here for is supporting and guiding you toward (re)connecting with your wholeness, healing the trauma stored in your body, and freeing yourself from painful patterns. Together we can navigate the tender areas of neurodivergence, trauma, identity, oppression, anxiety, depression, burnout, and much more.

I assume serious intent to address whatever brought the patient to my office in the first place. It is my hope to form the most positive therapeutic alliance possible. The first step is to acknowledge the courage it took to make the call. I have been practicing as a licensed Clinical Psychologist for thirty years. I have also served as a faculty member at the University of Colorado Boulder for over twenty years. I mostly see chronic depressed and anxious patients I .have worked across the spectrum from imminently suicidial to the broader existential issues concerning a more meaningful life.

Do you find yourself facing the challenges of life transitions, yearning for a path that aligns with your true self and empowers you to thrive? I specialize in wholistic healing for diverse communities, offering a unique approach to navigate life's twists and turns.
Embark on a journey of self-discovery, empowerment, and transformation. Feel a profound shift in emotional well-being, resilience, and a renewed sense of purpose. My passion is guiding individuals in diverse communities to embrace their authentic selves, navigate life transitions, and live the lives they've always dreamed of.

I have worked with clients for over twenty years as a Licensed Professional Counselor and it is my passion to help each person foster a lighthearted relationship with the self, especially during times of need. Together, I work with my clients to discover self-compassion and internal strengths and resources that can often be hidden, forgotten, or clouded by the difficult experiences that life presents. From this place of self awareness, new skills and lasting change can form.

I work with people navigating major life changes, grappling with grief & loss, or longing to understand their unique emotions and sensations. My approach is grounded in creativity and curiosity. I can help you develop healthier communication skills that may strengthen your connection to yourself and others. Becoming aware of our internal experiences allows us to express our needs with greater clarity. I will listen to you and learn about your intentions so that we can get to the heart of the matter together. I view therapy as a collaborative process, and I enjoy working with people who are committed to their growth and development.

It takes courage to seek assistance and support when faced with challenges and struggles. My goal with clients is to honor inner resources and strengths while reducing distress. We will work together on identifying goals, motivations, and barriers, while gaining insight and skills, fortifying self-compassion, and increasing self-efficacy. I have varied experience providing psychotherapy, ranging from working with clients struggling with life adjustments to those working through more pervasive and enduring challenges. My focus is on real results, utilizing methods that are evidence-based and lead to increased life satisfaction.

I work with adults of all ages to help you manage anxiety, navigate life changes, communicate effectively, improve relationships, reduce stress, build coping skills and learn to resolve problems to manage conflict at home, work, school, and your important situations. I can help with life transitions, loss and grief, relationship issues, anxiety and relaxation, building and sustaining healthy lifestyles.

Only the strongest and most courageous know when it is time to get help. Together we can work through nearly any difficulty. I personalize my counseling and coaching practices based on your or your family's needs, using effective, yet gentle and powerful, proven methods. With 25+ years in practice working with people who have depression, anxiety, OCD, childhood/teen behavioral concerns, ADHD, trauma, autism spectrum disorders, and adjustments to significant life changes, I have the experience to meet your needs . Not sure if counseling or coaching is right for you? Please call me for a free consultation. Warmest regards, Erin

Let’s be real. These are dark times, and uncertainty abounds. Old wounds may be coming to the surface, and the thought of facing them may feel downright terrifying……It IS terrifying. I believe that these moments are opportunities for us to learn, accept, and grow in our capacity to be Compassionate with ourselves, and with one another. This is how Transformational Healing occurs. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, anger issues, relationships with substances, or existential dread (perhaps all the above), YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

I am a psychotherapist and expressive arts therapist based in Boulder, CO. I use a trauma-informed approach that draws on the depth of relational psychoanalysis, the practicality of cognitive behavioral therapy, and the expressive magic of somatic and art-based approaches. I love working with anxiety and OCD-related disorders, embodiment and trauma healing, relationship issues, gifted populations, and people looking to nurture their creativity. I work with adults, couples, and teens. I’m especially passionate about the journey of individuation while holding each unique life story in a social justice context.

Drawing from practices in innovation, positive psychology, and behavioral science, I’ve developed simple yet powerful techniques to help people change and grow. I’m the creator of the Stanford University class “Do It Anyway! Creating a life of passionate action” and the author of the book “Fail Fast, Fail Often: how losing can help you win”, an Oprah editor's choice selection. My work has been featured in the New York Times, NPR, and The Atlantic. As a therapist, I’m compassionate, warm and practical. I enjoy taking the time to understand and appreciate my clients, while empowering them with modern tools to promote rapid change.

People's stories are one of the most valuable things we have in life. If you want to have a meaningful relationship with someone, you need to be able to understand your own story. Helping individuals to develop and enhance their personal stories is at the crux of my work as a therapist. We all have public and private lives, and I believe the power of developing the stories behind these separate selves is how people vividly change their lives.

Holistic & Spiritual Counseling & Dream Work. Relationship conflicts and pain? Grief and sorrow in your heart? Disturbing, crazy, scary dreams? Anxiety, depression, loneliness, trauma? You don't have to go it alone! You may be emotionally/spiritually exhausted, wounded by rigid religion and fundamentalism.

Let's work together for your courageous authenticity, to heal your inner and outer worlds, a life filled with healing, meaning and joy.
