Trauma and PTSD Therapists in 80121

Trauma and adversity can get us stuck in harmful beliefs and habits that – while useful for survival – may not serve us in healthy relationships and a safe environment. I recognize that creating a safe, non-judgmental space to identify and process the complexities of trauma and being human is essential for healing and growth. You are not your trauma, and your trauma does not need to define what your life looks like.

My practice is centered on helping athletes, coaches and their families navigate mental health and performance issues. I approach counseling from a guiding perspective. You hold the answers you're looking for, but sometimes there are things blocking us from being able to tap into these answers. Together we work on navigating these issues and finding clarity, peace, and healing. Some of my hobbies are: snowboarding, fishing, camping, spending time with my family, and jiu jitsu!

Emotional pain can be the most stifling and difficult pain to endure, yet it can also be the catalyst for tremendous growth and insight. I specialize in helping clients of all ages who are struggling with trauma, complex trauma, depression, stress, self-esteem and interpersonal difficulties. My ideal client is one who is ready to be free from the impact of trauma, be it old or recent trauma, and is desiring growth and healing within themselves and their relationships. I also enjoy working with clients who are interested in looking at their issues through the lens of their spirituality.

SUMMER groups and workshops in 2024! Please look at my group offerings and email me if you have interest! As for my work with individuals, the process of healing, personal growth and self discovery is a valuable journey for people/families of all types, and for each youth or family this may look different. It is my privilege and honor to be allowed to join in your unique journey. We will work together to help you achieve the goals you set in this therapy process.

Have you tried traditional talk therapy and still need something more? I work with people who want a different approach. I utilize nature, play, energy, and animal-assisted therapy to help support the healing journey. Clients come seeking support for various reasons but I specialize in trauma and attachment, parenting for children who are struggling, empowerment and self-esteem. Using methods like expressive arts, yoga, partnering with nature and animals, healing happens emotionally, spiritually, cognitively and physically. I have a laid back style and you will often find me dressed in sweats or yoga pants.

I currently have a waitlist but am happy to place you on it if desired. I work with people who desire to lead fulfilling lives but struggle to do so for a variety of reasons. My clients often find difficult to open up to others, or find themselves haunted by past events. They try to "brush off" challenging experiences to lesser and lesser degrees of success. individuals with trauma, complicated relationships with parents, sexual shame, or histories of sexual or physical abuse are common in my practice. We can strengthen your ability to tolerate painful emotions and uncomfortable previous experiences.

You're taking the very first step already - locating someone to help you with your struggle. It can feel overwhelming, exhausting, and even scary trying to reach out for help, yet we all need help from time to time. It can be very healing to have someone to share our stories with and to sort through and help make sense of what can often feel like chaos. With healing comes growth and peace and a better, happier future. My practice offers a safe, nonjudgmental place to work on the issues that are interfering with your peace and balance in life.

I am passionate about creating a safe place for you to experience healing as you struggle with some of life’s most difficult challenges. I enjoy working with clients across the lifespan; and I want to get to know you! My experience has taught me that therapy is most effective when it is relational versus transactional; and collaborative versus prescriptive. Education and transparency are two very important values that inform my approach to your healing. Collaboratively, we will blend trauma-informed and person-centered approaches to ensure you receive personalized resources.

"Play" has always been a place where I feel most alive, whether through physical activity, creativity, or connecting with others. Like so many people, the adventurous culture of Denver stole my heart. My favorite thing to do is play outdoors, preferably with my giant dog and the people I love. I believe that as humans we all crave that sense of playfulness and freedom. I am passionate about supporting others to find their own sense of play to create the life they want. In my practice, I primarily use a modality called Brainspotting. It is the most incredible thing I have ever had the privilege of sharing with my clients.

Get started this week! I have openings! User-friendly mental health. What's not working? What would be better? How do we get there?

I recognized the strength and courage in each one of my clients. I strive to create a nonjudgemental, empathic therapeutic setting where clients feel safe and validated. I am passionate about helping people who are struggling with grief and loss, trauma, depression and anxiety. Often, loss is traumatic. Through trauma work, the pain from traumatic loss lessens and a sense of purpose is restored. We live in a stressful, busy world, and life can feel overwhelming and affect relationships. My practice also focuses on stress management, mindfulness skills and repairing relationships. I see adults, adolescents/teens and their families. I offer free 60 minute consultations.

I believe we have the answers to our questions and issues within ourselves. As a therapist, with 20 years experience, my role is to help you unveil these answers. I want to help you work on issues related to trauma, grief and loss, addiction, mental illness, life transitions, and life coaching. People I've worked with describe me as authentic, sincere, and compassionate. I understand from my own experience-and those whom I've worked with--what suffering and struggle mean and how debilitating it can be. I'll help you work through your issues so you can live a more meaningful and satisfying life.

I specialize in helping adults who have not been helped by past treatment, who have problems feeling connected, or who have long-standing struggles with trauma, depression, anxiety, or relationships. Currently I have openings for Group Therapy (not for individual or couples). I am happy to refer you to trusted colleagues if you would like to chat about that. All our therapists track how effective we are - and we publish our results. That's what makes The Colorado Center for Clinical Excellence different. I invite you to read about my approach, results, fees, articles, and resources at thecoloradocenter.com.

I love working with children, teenagers, and adults struggling with behavioral concerns and mental health related issues. I find this work incredibly rewarding, to identify needs behind behaviors, feelings, and thoughts, and creating empathy and compassion beyond power struggles or difficult dynamics in order to improve family health and individual functioning. I believe firmly that trauma occurs in relationships and is healed through relationships. I greatly value the impact of healthy and safe relationships in therapy and beyond to create meaningful connections with others and to improve one's overall mental health and wellbeing

Healing is a healthy process our body knows how to do. Sometimes we just need support to find the process. Therapy can be this safe place to explore where we need healing in our lives. I believe your past does not define your future. I can help with emotional or physical trauma, grief and loss, healing from fear, anxiety or depression, and painful relationship changes. We can work to restore empowerment, rejuvenating a sense of hope and peace and create the vitality and life force in your being. Healing also comes with connecting with yourself and with others, developing healthy boundaries and compassion for yourself.
