My ideal client is seeking help for trauma, depression, anxiety and relationship issues. I use mindfulness awareness practices, client-centered therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT) therapies. 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, joylanzano.com

Whether you are an individual or couple looking for personal support, or a therapeutic practitioner looking to take your practice to another level of potency, the Somatic Wilderness Therapy Institute guides you in taking your ongoing growth and evolution to the next level. Our goal is to provide you with powerful, cutting-edge information and practices that support you in deeply listening to and trusting your own inner guidance. Each of our therapists draws on the support, wisdom, and interconnectedness of the body-mind-spirit along with that of the natural world in the growth and healing process as they work with you.

I am here to help you cope with the stresses of life and find meaning in a rapidly changing world. * Are you looking for a natural, holistic alternative to traditional talk therapy? I use a gentle, compassionate approach to help you relax, transform unhealthy patterns, improve and deepen relationships, and reclaim your power and vitality. * Are you are sensitive or easily overwhelmed? I can help you ground and develop stronger energetic boundaries. * Do you need support for trauma or a difficult childhood? I will help you develop inner resources, so that you can safely process painful memories or PTSD.

Welcome! As we work together I will honor your inherent healthiness. If you are experiencing PTSD, trauma, grief, loss, divorce, depression, anxiety, anger, denial, co-dependency, addictions, or need self-care and empowerment, you have choices. I can help you to be brave enough to weather personal storms, tender enough to be vulnerable, resilient enough to succeed, and confident enough to trust your own wisdom. Together we'll take a non-judgmental and honest look at "how and why" you do what you do, in order to inspire positive change. I invite you to explore the possibilities. Individuals and couples. (No insurance for couples)

I am an LPCC (Licensed Professional Counselor Credentialing) in the State of Colorado.  My goal for providing counseling is to help my clients through some of life's most difficult times.  Working together and exploring these hardships allows for the client to be able to cultivate and find some of life's most meaningful connections. Having trained in both somatic therapy and EMDR, I help move my clients through some of the most difficult traumas or bereavement as they journey to a greater understanding of self by fostering a more profound connection with the body, mind and spirit.  I enjoy working with a wide range of ages.

Horses have an innate sense of the suffering of their herd. They are hyper-attuned to the needs of others around them. When I work with my horses they are able to pick up on the underlying needs and desires of my clients. They know when you are feeling angry, isolated, or restless. The horses are able to attune to your emotions while I help you to put those feelings into words and do the necessary work to solve life's challenges. Together, we will embark on a journey of self-discovery.

I am dedicated to working with people who want to get at the roots of their emotional pain and distress. My fundamental approach to treatment is relational. Therapy is a process where we will develop an alliance in which your emotional and developmental needs are made a priority. Over time, an internalized healing space forms where you can recover access to parts of your true self. Speaking freely without unnecessary self-censorship may be simple, but it is not easy. I encourage you to try it.

I approach therapy with a client-centered framework to let you determine what path your journey is taking. We will create a relationship together where I can be your mirror and reflect your innate wisdom that life's stress and trauma have obscured. Lasting change is created through this empowerment that gives you the strength and awareness to deepen personal resilience. I blend a model of evidence-based therapeutic techniques with non-traditional spiritual knowledge and practices like mindfulness. Through compassion, present-moment focus, and somatic guidance, I offer support unique to what you need for your individual situation.

I can best support anyone wanting to better themselves and live a life directed by their values. I will be on the ground floor with my clients supporting the structures that are needed to build life skills, create movement from stuckness and find value where they are feeling hopeless.

Maybe you've been feeling anxious, depressed or your relationships are struggling. Feeling overwhelmed from depression, PTSD or anxiety can negatively affect your job, your confidence and your ability to be present on a daily basis. You might be thinking - "Nobody knows what I'm going through" - or have thoughts telling you - “You are not good enough.” Maybe you've felt lost and hopeless. You do not have to go through this alone.

Does it seem like the language in therapists' introductions are similar? How do you know if a counselor is right for you? A comfortable and genuine connection is vital in the relationship between a client and therapist, and most importantly - healing takes place in the relationship you have with yourself. I trust and believe that every person holds the wisdom to their own answers for growth. Sometimes we need someone to whole-heartedly hear us and support along the way. I view counseling as an opportunity to be fully seen and heard for who you are and have a companion/guide with you.
