Therapists in Arvada, CO

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20+ years' experience in holistic and client-centered therapy in private practice, hospitals and schools. I am best suited to work with those motivated to improve their closest relationships (with self, relatives, spouses, children) and/or working relationships (with supervisors, co-workers). Ram Dass & Stephen Levine wisely wrote, "You must listen to your own heart to hear what you need, you can't imitate anyone else's trip." Your self-knowledge, intuition and strength will lead the way in this courageous work. You"ll be treated with the respect that is your birthright.

By now you may feel like you've tried everything. Perhaps your home has become a battleground, filled with fights that repeat over and over without any progress. Maybe you feel like you have hit a wall with your partner and aren’t sure how to move forward, or maybe you feel stuck, watching from the sidelines as your child navigates the many challenges of adolescence. Taking action can help resolve these feelings of helplessness and taking the initiative to seek treatment is the first step forward. If you or your child is struggling to live a fulfilling life—or even struggling to make it through the day—it’s time to seek help.

We need healthy and meaningful relationships to feel a true sense of fulfillment in life. Therapy can be a transformative space for individuals, couples and families to reimagine the way they they relate to themselves and one another. Deep down, I believe we all want what is best for ourselves, our relationships and our families, but sometimes the pains from the past and uncertainty of life can block us from fulfillment and true connection. Life is difficult and can bring unimaginable pain. Relationships and parenting are complex. Everyone needs support.

We are a team of therapists who use strength-based and expressive therapies to help children, teens, adults, and families work through difficulties, learn more about yourself, learn new coping strategies, and take tangible steps towards your goals. We have dedicated our careers to supporting families in our community and are passionate about advocating for and supporting our LGBTQIA+ community.

Brain-Based Relationship Therapy & Sex Therapy. Couples and Individuals. My work with couples centers on improving communication, building trust, and increasing emotional and physical intimacy. Together, we co-create a relationship founded on deep love and a restored sense of playfulness and connection. By addressing the underlying relational patterns that lead to dysfunction, recurring problems are eliminated.

Are you struggling to find meaning and purpose in your life? Whether it is depression, anxiety, OCD, relationship issues, grief or feelings of meaninglessness, I can help. Whether your looking for help as an individual, couple or group, let's consider journeying together.

Jamie is a passionate and dedicated therapist who has worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families throughout her career. Jamie supports those who struggle with the difficulties from the stressor of daily life, mental health issues like depression and anxiety, barriers surrounding trauma, motherhood and postpartum, ADD/ADHD, substance use, grief and loss, and feelings of being overwhelmed. If you are feeling lost, having challenges in relationships, life situations, or you feel burdened by anxiety and depression, Jamie might be a good fit to help support your path in feeling better.

I respectfully focus on the uniqueness of each individual and how they are experiencing themselves in the present moment, rather than what they have been told in the past. I am a trauma informed therapist, specializing in working with grief, loss, trauma and life transitions. My professional experience includes working in an inpatient psychiatric setting with adults with trauma, substance abuse and chronic mental health issues, working with adult survivors of childhood trauma and working as a bereavement counselor in hospice.

I work best with individuals, couples and families on these issues: Couple/Relationship conflict, Parenting/Family issues, Grief and loss, Life Transitions, Anger Management, Self-Esteem, Identity formation, LGBTQI/ Gender Identity, Spirituality, and Meaning Making.

I am honored to provide support for individuals, couples, and families during challenging times. I believe in the power of collaborative relationships to uncover your innate strengths, perseverance, and authentic self. Whether you're dealing with everyday stressors or contemplating existential questions, my approach is tailored to you – no one-size-fits-all solutions here. I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey toward a more vibrant and fulfilling life.

Are you finding it challenging to navigate major life transitions and changes in your relationship? Do you feel disconnected from those you care most about? I help couples stay connected during periods of transition. From moving in together, getting married, or entering parenthood, change can feel really scary even if it's what we truly want. I provide a safe space to explore the things that feel hard to talk about. We'll work to strengthen the foundation of your relationship, by exploring the emotional, physical, and logistical barriers, so you are ready to handle whatever life throws at you next.

I provide Individual counseling and couples counseling in Arvada, Colorado (West Denver.) I particularly enjoy working with Highly Sensitive People (HSPs). Specialties include improving communication skills with couples and working with trauma, anxiety, depression, illness, and grief. I use EMDR for treating grief and trauma.

All change involves loss. All loss involves change. Even those changes we choose, can be challenging and maybe painful. Yet in nearly all situations, we have the power to choose how we respond. “Every choice we make takes us closer to or further from where we want to be.” Whether the choice has to do with some exciting possibility or tragedy and trauma from illness, death, assault or a failing relationship, it’s all about our choices. Helping people decide where they want to be, and evaluating whether their choices take them closer to or further from that destination, is what my practice is about.

70 West is a faith based non-profit Counseling Center. Since 1995 70 West has offered counseling services, support groups, and mental health education. Our purpose is to provide affordable effective counseling for individuals, children, and families who might otherwise be unable to afford professional counseling. Our therapists are Christians by faith; however it is our goal to honor the personal beliefs of all the clients we serve. As a full service center we offer counseling for people of all ages, stages, and transitions in life.

Anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem making you feel like there must be more to life than what you are currently experiencing? Has your relationship with your partner, spouse, or children left you wanting more from these connections? Sometimes the monotony of life gets in the way of us becoming the people we want to be. I believe each individual, couple, and family have particular gifts and qualities that make them unique and I love exploring and harnessing these strengths with you to become the best version of yourself.

Allow yourself to make time for you. Let’s start working on becoming a healthier you. Although we live busy lives, we can live a balanced and embodied life while creating meaning and peaceful spaces in our daily life. Even if nothing really “bad” is going on, it is ok to seek support in our lives that we feel we “should” have everything under control. You may be experiencing anxious feelings, lack of sleep, overwhelming or irrational emotional responses, or persistent tiredness when engaging in your daily routine, social activities, or viewing social media and news.

We all have the strengths and skills within ourselves needed to make changes we desire in our lives. Sometimes we just need a little help accessing it. I use a collaborative approach to my therapeutic work with individuals, couples, and families, meaning we work together to find the best way forward. I will help guide you to discover your and/or your family’s strengths while cultivating a stronger sense of self within your relationships.

I recognize that taking the first step to seek out professional counseling can be a big one. I work with both individuals and couples to achieve their goals. We work on things like managing anxiety, relationship issues, sex and intimacy, dealing with life's transitions, and increasing coping skills. Many couples come to therapy having difficulty communicating and expressing their needs. With more people working from home and spending time cooped up together it is increasingly important to understand and communicate with your partner. It can be an opportunity to understand each other on deeper more meaningful level.

There has to be more to Mental Care than crisis management, disorders, illnesses, or diagnosis labeling. We are proactive in the maintenance of our bodies, yet, we neglect the "main computer" the mind, the psyche, the CORE of us. We, at CORE, believe in working hard - Mental Health Boot Camp - if you get the drift. Compassion is abundant at CORE but not in the form of soft talk. You are doing hard work and we take it serious. As a team we will discover those aspects of "self" that make us all so amazing. We will walk together sharing life's stories and how they do or do not define who you are at our CORE.
