Therapists in Broomfield, CO

Is your stress out of control? Are you trying to deal with a anxiety, depression, crisis, or trauma - with family, a job, being a caregiver, or other specific event? Is it affecting more of your life than you want to admit; impacting relationships? Are you avoiding things so you can manage your anxieties? Are harmful behaviors increasing to avoid dealing with these emotions? Fear of abandonment, lack of trust? All of these create issues that ooze into every aspect of our lives, and the lives of those around us. You are important and worth helping tackle these problems. You are not alone. I can help.

It is my belief that we come into this world beautiful, whole and have gifts to bring to our lives, with a personhood uniquely our own. Along the way we may be knocked off center, becoming clouded in our way of being. We may lose sight of who we are, what we are capable of and how to navigate the waters of our lives. My intention is to support you in your process of finding your inner resources, your clarity in your present path, and strengthening who you are in your current life situations. I bring a warm, empathic, and intuitive approach to the process of moving through changes, challenges or transformations.

At the heart of my practice is the emphasis on building a warm, empathic relationship based on trust and acceptance, where you will feel the freedom to discuss whatever is important to you in each session. Your life and experiences are unique. If you are looking for a therapist who can help you dive deeper, or who will take the time to truly hear you and understand you before offering guidance, we will be a good fit. As a doctor in clinical and transpersonal psychology, I am well equipped to help you through either mental health or spiritual concerns.

My work with clients supports their emotional and relational well-being by exploring what gets in their way from living the way they desire. I weave extensive experience in working with complex trauma with systems work - exploring the ways in which the context we are surrounded by, deeply impacts our ability to live an embodied life. My clients often come to me because they have been to therapy before and are looking for a direct approach that supports them in moving out of pure awareness, and into embodied living. Embracing the present moment while moving towards change.

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.

I have an integrative approach to psychotherapy bringing awareness to body, mind, and spirit. How we eat, sleep, exercise, and relate to each other and the world are all meaningful and woven together in my approach. I use the Synergistic Play Therapy model with children and use the Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT) with couples and families. I also offer polychromatic light therapy to clients requesting this additional therapeutic modality to promote healing and well-being.

I want to know what being human means to you, and want to help you find a sense of wholeness and power in your mind, your body, and your spirit. I want to know what your inner and outer worlds look like and be curious about how they impact you. Coming into therapy, you might feel disconnected, like you're going through the motions, or like there are parts of you that are not within your control. You might hope to heal from deep distress and finally connect to a life worth living. Whatever type of distress you're experiencing, in our work together we can build awareness of how it takes shape and what is needed to transform it.

The problems and symptoms bringing you to seek therapy might be connected to things you wish never happened. This can be overwhelming to feel and vulnerable to invite another person to be with you. Deep down you may be hoping for change and eager for healing, but unsure of how to get it. I believe psychotherapy is a sacred process that can look underneath the surface and explore deeply-rooted issues to help create long lasting and significant change. My hope is to partner with you to help you understand yourself, deepen your relationships with others, and foster your healing journey.

The symptoms that have us seek out professional help are often rooted in trauma—experiences in our lives that told us we were unlovable, not “good enough”, or “bad”; that change how we feel about ourselves and how we show up in the world. The challenges that so many of us face today, be it anxiety or chronic stress, depression, substance abuse, or relationship issues, can frequently be traced back to these experiences. As a psychotherapist specializing in mindfulness-based counseling, gestalt therapy and Inner Child Work, I will help you to uncover the heart of your issues, reclaim what was lost, and revive your joy for life.

It takes courage to seek support, so I take that to heart when working with people of diverse histories and needs. Perhaps you have had depression, trauma, anxiety, loss, life transitions, or other stress that you are ready to heal. I work most effectively with clients willing to look into themselves and their lives with both depth and compassion. If you are seeking an approach that is holistic, integrative, trauma-informed, and empowering, we may be a good fit for counseling. My intention is to help you find your own inner capacities to heal, grow, transform, evolve, learn, and become.

I provide online and in-home therapy to people looking for psychedelic integration therapy. Plant and other consciousness expanding medicines can be a wonderful tool that many people use to heal trauma, anxiety, depression and get unstuck in life. I work with people at all parts of their healing journey, whether you are looking to integrate past experiences, are currently on a protocol, or are considering starting treatment.

I can help you achieve and maintain balance in your life, identify values, and support you as you gain effective assertiveness skills. Through increasing self-awareness you can build a rich, rewarding life no matter the circumstances.

Life can feel overwhelming - at times it would be nice to take one long vacation and hope everything would be fixed when you return. Or perhaps it feels like it would be too awful to tell someone what was really going on, or what has happened in the past. Through compassionate listening, empathy, and curiosity, I help individuals reclaim strength and healing.

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.

As a therapist, I am passionate about creating a safe, accepting environment where clients of all ages are free to discover, explore and live out of their most authentic selves. It is my desire to support both adolescents and adults in their journey toward growth and healing so that they may find balance and joy in their lives.

Make the call and take advantage of my free consult. Are you ready for change? I have proven strategies and techniques to keep you in your life and making the changes that you want.

Do you feel unsatisfied in relationships? Not seen, heard, or understood? Have difficulty navigating intimacy and communication? Is your sex life a source of distress? Are you hard on yourself about not being able to do things differently? I believe lasting change requires more than just talk therapy. Many of our wounds are stored in the body and we must speak the language of the nervous system in order to understand and heal them. Our work will address symptoms and stuckness at this level, which has the power to rewire habitual responses that formed around early attachment difficulties or trauma throughout the lifespan.
