"Men experience the world in very different ways than their female counterparts. For this reason, men in therapy benefit most when working with a therapist who truly understands the challenges that men face. As a male therapist, my practice has been tailored towards supporting men through relationship, career and/or personal struggles. My goal as a therapist is to help men to find their true potential in living happy and successful lives. Providing a judgement free environment with true empathy and unconditional positive regard, I work from an integrative and practical perspective, striving for both immediate and long lasting changes."

"My practice and process are centered around the idea that everyone has struggles, and no one's struggles are greater than anyone else's. I often work with people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, family dynamics, and PTSD. Thank you for considering me as a therapist with whom you may want to work. Starting therapy can be scary, but I have seen the benefits of it for countless people. Be proud of yourself for seeking guidance in a difficult time."

"Anxiety, Depression, Stress, & Relationships can be exhausting, especially if you have low Self-esteem, Attachment injuries, or experienced Neglect, or Trauma. It's hard being human. Our developmental history, relational patterns, brain hardwiring, thinking patterns, emotional states, & personality traits affect how we function in ALL aspects of life. If you are here right now, then you may be struggling. ~Maybe you feel like things are never going to change. However, that is just your mind playing tricks on you. You are stronger and more resilient than you think. Promise. Let's begin to create the life you want to live today. "

"You are your own unique person. You know how think for yourself, and you're looking for a therapist who can be real with you. I offer warmth, honesty and authentic human connection. I also offer methods of therapy that start to work quickly...no need to wait months to notice a difference. You deserve to have a rich, fulfilling, meaningful life, and I believe you can achieve it. You are stronger than you can possibly imagine. I'd love to work with you on achieving you goals for health and well-being. **Please note that I am only accepting clients at the downtown Boulder office at this time as the Denver practice is full**"

"Feeling stuck? Defeated? Unmotivated? You're not alone, and help is here. Let's work together. In my practice I specialize in working with those struggling with life transitions (school, relationships, breakups, a big move, a career change), addiction, anxiety, and codependency. Not only do I work with individuals with addiction, but all who are impacted by the effects of addiction such as partners, parents, siblings, children, and friends. If you or someone you know is struggling with substance abuse or going through a major life challenge, reach out and together we can rebuild and restore your sense of self, motivation, and hope. "

" I have been working in the mental health since 2013. My career began working in the community mental health world which allowed me to gain vast experience&knowledge of various therapy skills.

"I provide psychotherapy for individuals with various difficulties in living, using techniques that are supported by evidence and could have positive effects relatively quickly. Psychotherapy can help build your coping skills for now and for your future. In addition to working with diverse individuals from across the lifespan, my work focuses on those with chronic medical conditions. I have worked, for instance, with patients with diabetes and cardiovascular disease who have difficulties adhering to their treatment regime and adjusting to their diagnosis."

"My passion is to work with women who are stepping into the truth of who they are. I work with people who can no longer avoid the calling to go within, to find the answers to the hard questions, What am I hungry for? What is life asking of me? What am I here to do? Usually this begins with a fair amount of suffering and struggle, whether it's an encounter with an eating disorder, depression, anxiety, self-harm, or simply life confusion. "

"You have a lot of the “right” boxes checked, but it sure doesn’t feel that way. Instead there is a heaviness, a sense of discontentment, and way too much time in your head. All that thinking doesn’t solve the problem, it just repeats the same things, the same worries. The more time you spend in your head the less time you are spending with the people and things you love. You’re not enjoying things the way you want, and keep feeling more disconnected from them. The things that are supposed to help just don’t seem to be working here."

"Are you struggling to balance your life? Are you feeling held back from negative habits and unhealthy patterns? I can help. I specialize in anxiety and mindfulness, helping clients shift from fear to calmness. My goal is to help you break free from unhealthy patterns and identify the root causes of your distress. I offer creative interventions, including expressive arts techniques. I specialize in working with adults and adolescents experiencing anxiety/panic disorders, depression, disordered eating, sexuality, and creative blocks."

"Through support and encouragement, everyone can have the ability to create positive change and find a balance in their lives. A strength-based approach can allow for the opportunity to identify your successes, reestablish healthy patterns and learn new ways to deal with everyday life."

"As a counselor, I am passionate about assisting individuals and couples in the process of change and growth. I do this by helping to identify and remove obstacles that are getting in the way. We are all on a path toward personal and relational transformation. My role is to help work through areas in life where you might feel stuck and equip you with the skills and support you need to move forward. I strive to help you reduce suffering, increase adaptability, and improve overall quality of life. We will set goals, develop insight into your problems, and establish connections between patterns of thought, emotions, and behavior. "

"I take a somewhat novel approach to therapy, and I work best with individuals experiencing high levels of stress and anxiety due to anxiety disorders, life transitions, trauma and relationship issues. I work to help people overcome anxiety in order to find deeper connections, and live a fuller, more meaningful, and more productive lifestyle. I enjoy working with individuals who live both traditional and non-traditional lifestyles."

"Carol Burnett once said, "Only I can change my life. No one can change it for me." I firmly believe that each of us has the capability to make changes in our lives to be a better, happier, and more capable version of ourselves. Therapy is about working together to find this version - whether it be changing one's thoughts, beliefs, behaviors, or ideas to overcome issues that might involve trauma, fractured relationships or negative life experiences."

"I help women experiencing anxiety, depression, and panic make changes that lead to a more vibrant and joyful life. I know the sadness and fear can be overwhelming at times, I've been there, but I also know that there is much hope for healing. Through a compassionate blend of EMDR, talk therapy, and mindfulness, I can help work you through trauma including fundamental or abusive religious experiences, and negative experiences related to gender expression and sexuality. I also help women through pregnancy/pregnancy loss and postpartum depression and anxiety. I love talking with my clients about creativity, career, and life changes. "

" Now is the time to focus on YOU!

"I am a firm believer that YOU truly are the expert on YOU. My approach to therapy is simple; provide an environment that is safe for YOU to begin exploring problems in your life that you feel influence your ability to find genuine happiness on a day-to-day basis. Our journey focuses on not assuming that the answers are going to be readily available, but appreciating the questions that surface during every session so that in time you can live your way into finding your genuine self. It is through this process that I believe authentic happiness is found!"

"Many challenges we encounter are based on habits/patterns, which at one point may have been helpful or necessary. Frequently, these ways of doing and being are automatic and have taken shape over time. My role as a psychologist is to facilitate awareness and understanding of these repetitive cycles, and help patients confront and work through obstacles that interfere with leading the lives they desire. A safe, trusting, collaborative therapeutic relationship is the foundation to begin this exploration. A healthy dose of humor can help in the process."
