Hello, I'm so glad you found me! I am a licensed psychologist with over 13 years of experience working with teens, college students, adults and couples who are facing various challenges, ranging from anxiety and depression to life transitions and relationship stress. To put it simply, my goal is to help you better understand yourself so that your experiences and your relationships are meaningful and fulfilling. This process of self-understanding is one of the great gifts of therapy. Whether I'm working with you individually or as a couple, I emphasize the healing power of the therapeutic relationship.

There is hope. Feeling stuck, pain, or discomfort is a natural part of being human, but the pain doesn't have to control your daily life. The challenges you face may stem from trauma, addiction, anxiety, or the struggle to make a relationship succeed. I am a body-centered psychotherapist interested in your well-being and in helping you understand the source of your pain. I would like to get to know you and provide a space where you can show up just as you are; where transformation and healing can take place. Together we will help you embody your strengths and internal wisdom to break unhealthy patterns and help you move forward.

Feeling down or sad? Anxious? Do you feel alone no matter what you try? Frustrated? Angry? Disgusted with your body, yourself, or your life? Confused by your teenager or partner? I offer individual, couple, and family psychotherapy & assessment services for adolescents (10+) and adults. As a developmentalist, I support individuals, couples, and families interested in thriving, not just surviving. I offer 30 minute consultations at no cost. I honor your courage and initiative and can't wait to meet you!

Whether by video or in the outdoors it's an honor to accompany individuals, couples, and families on journeys of growth and discovery through therapy. I am guide in the process, you are the expert of yourself and your experience. If you're not feeling expert, my approach draws out individuals' inner wisdom, and confidence. Working with the mind-body connection, trauma resolution, mindfulness, and the natural world, we are able to co-create new possibilities for living a more enlivened and fulfilling life. Neuroscience and attachment theory highly inform my work and I am ever expanding my knowledge and skill in order to best serve.

I am a somatic trauma therapist specializing in EMDR Therapy, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and Play Therapy in Boulder, Colorado. I help children, teens and adults seeking relief from anxiety, depression, eating disorders, addiction, chronic illness, and other impacts of trauma on the nervous system.

Do you ever wonder, despite all your knowledge and efforts for growth that you still end up in a pattern of doing the same thing over and over again? Well, it's not your fault and there is a way to change it. When we are free to truly see and understand the connection to our brain, body, mind, and relationships, we can actually rewire our brains to build new neural pathways for new ways of thinking and being. Most of what we do, we have no idea why we do it; almost 85% is not on a conscious level.

I believe in your capacity to find the healing you seek and create the life you envision. Perhaps you are dealing with anxiety or depression, grieving the death of a loved one or a painful breakup, struggle with belonging, or just feel stuck and know that you are ready to do something about it. Do you want more intimacy, connection, and joy in your relationships? Let me help you uncover unconscious patterns and beliefs and heal from old wounds that may be keeping you from living from your best self. Together we can bring more love, capacity, skill, and presence into your relationships.

What is challenging for you during this global pandemic? Are you finding yourself struggling to adjust to current circumstances, unsure how to think about and plan for the future? Are relationships, work, finances, home, schooling, health, or ways of enjoying life adversely impacted? Could you use support in relating well with whatever difficult emotions are arising? Would coaching in how to address difficult issues be helpful? Would you like to explore the potential and opportunities within the challenges? Whatever your reasons for seeking therapy, I will offer you non-judgmental listening and skilled support honed by experience.

Do you want to live a happier, healthier, well-balanced life? As a Licensed Psychologist and PACT Level 3 Couple Therapist, I work with adults to facilitate couple and individual wellness. My work with couples is attachment based, assisting couples in building trust and deepening intimacy. I work with my clients to develop their strengths and find tools to cope with challenging issues. My counseling approach is active and warm, based on best practices and over 25 years of clinical experience. I also specialize in trauma and I am certified in EMDR. My training as a yoga teacher brings a mindfulness based approach to my work.

These are especially challenging times we are living through and many can feel overwhelmed, stuck or have a sense that something is missing in their lives. You may be struggling to manage the stress, anxiety and worry that life causes so many of us. You may feel disconnected and resorting to unhealthy ways of coping such as addictive behaviors or substances. You may be experiencing conflict and confusion in your relationships. Now is the time to address that sense of lack, uncertainty and anxious feeling. I am here to support you in this journey towards becoming that version of yourself that you know is within you.

Relationships & sex are both avenues for exploring the unconscious drives and desires that motivate us. I work with couples and individuals. I use a combination of self-inquiry and narrative therapy to help my clients connect with their sexuality and reclaim their birthright as fully developed confident beings. Tension or shame in your intimate life can impact your health, work, and other relationships. Don't continue carrying any confusion or hurt you might be carrying alone. If you are also looking to feel more empowered in your relationships and within yourself lets work to meet those goals together.

My ideal client is seeking help for trauma, depression, anxiety and relationship issues. My client may be dependent on or abusing substances or be dependent on another form of addiction. I use mindfulness awareness practices, client-centered therapy, EMDR trauma therapy, and PACT therapy. I utilize many different therapeutic approaches to tailor what treatment best fits my client's needs. I will work with individuals, families, and couples. My work is also informed by my personal practice in the Diamond Approach to inner work. Please take a look at my website for more details joylanzano.com

In over 20 years of working in personal growth field and mental health healing, I've developed an approach clients describe as powerfully transformative. People who have had prior experience with therapy and/or personal growth describe Conscious Heart Integration (CHI) as being different, refreshing, and effective. CHI is a good fit when you are ready to do your 'work.' Specifically, if you are willing to explore difficult feelings and/or unresolved situations in your life, in the spirit, of course, of bringing them resolution and allowing these experiences to add to your wisdom, growth, and ability.

Creativity, aliveness, sexuality, passion and playfulness are all inherent experiences of being human. I am passionate about helping others live a life that feels alive and engaging. With a compassionate presence and non-judgmental perspective, I co-create an environment for clients to explore hard emotions and life experiences so that they can be more spacious, confident, strong and joyful. Curiosity and playfulness are some approaches I use. Connection through relationships, sex, intimacy and love are areas I specialize in. I am a multicultural and trauma informed counselor who speaks English, Spanish and Portuguese fluently.

Are you tired of feeling "too sensitive"? Like you're at the mercy of your emotions and the moods of those around you? Do you wish you had the confidence and calm that others seem to? Your empathy is your superpower, but it doesn't often feel that way.

I serve adults, couples, and young professionals who are seeking support and greater wellbeing. Through a creative and practical collaboration, I work with clients to bring awareness to their strengths and challenges and to make sustainable changes and life-enhancing choices. I have over 10 years of experience working with clients who are experiencing relationship issues, stress, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and life transitions. I specialize in an integrative and relational approach to therapy, which focuses on developing a strong therapeutic relationship of authenticity and communication.

There are three aspects to growth: awareness, understanding and action. We must become aware of what is happening/what we would like to be different. From there, we deepen our understanding beyond superficial, familiar explanations. Armed with this new perspective, we then consider which steps we can take to re-create our life circumstances. All of this is doable without a therapist. And all of it is easier with a therapist who is well-versed in what they do. I will help you discover the answers you already hold and create the life that is already within you.

It might be frequent fights, or conflict that escalates, or a desire for a deeper connection. I help couples with presentations ranging from premarital checkups to moving past affairs and serious doubts. You can get to a clearer level of understanding and break out of your typical pattern. In nourishing a relationship, we build a safe haven of comfort and joy which gives the strength to face life challenges. This powerful force, called love, is the most important thing in this life.
