Therapists in Boulder, CO

If you're feeling at the end of your rope in your relationship with your partner, child, work, or some aspect of yourself, you may be ready to make a change. While feeling gripped by pain, fear, despair, uncertainty, doubt, and even shame feels like anything but a blessing, 5 years from now, you may look back and identify this moment as the one that positively altered the course of your life forever.

Are you feeling alone in your grief and that no one understands? I can hold space for your grief process and teach you to honor it one moment at a time. Do you feel anxious and stressed out about what's next after college graduation, a divorce, retirement, coming out or becoming an empty nester? I will support you with big life transitions. Your life is speaking to you, are you listening? People are often so hard themselves and have difficulty seeing the bigger picture. I am grounded, insightful and present. I will root for you and encourage you with sensitivity and compassion and help you reach your full potential.

What sets this work apart is the energetic and spiritual depth, attachment work, and the integration of deeply transformational moments into day-to-day life using relational tools. Are you feeling frustrated or unfulfilled in relationships, ready for deep peace in connection with yourself and others? Are you tired of replaying old conditioned patterns? Ready to face and unravel challenges in partnership and family, level up in the professional world, and stabilize in greater freedom, safety, and fulfillment?

I practice as a contemplative psychotherapist. I believe in the basic goodness of all people and join together with clients to reconnect that basic goodness back into their conscious life. I assist individuals, couples, families, and groups in finding their next steps. I know that transformation is possible and healing can take place even under the most dire situations, feelings, and ways we are conditioned to think and act. I am slow paced and create an atmosphere of warmth, trust, and safety. I am available mornings, late afternoon and early evenings Monday through Thursday.

Adolescence and early adulthood holds a special place in my heart, because it is such ripe ground for discovery, yet many young people get stuck along the journey. I have worked with young people for over 10 years, who have struggled with social-anxiety and shyness, addiction, anxiety and panic attacks, depression, grief and loss issues, trauma, school issues, and complex family issues. While all of these can be horrific for the individual and families involved, the underlying resiliency present in each of these young people and families is the foundation that we build from in the healing process.

In working with you, my goal is to create the environment in which you most readily evolve into a growth-enhancing experience. My approach is to work with you in your cultural and historical contexts respecting your individuality without trying to fit you into a theoretical orientation. Our goal in working together is to increase your awareness of your needs, behavior patterns, and responsiveness to yourself and the world around you in order to further fulfill your innate potentials.

I work with teens 11 and older, as well as individuals, couples, and families, including co-parenting counseling. If your issues are relationship oriented (parent/child, between partners, co-parents, or family related issues), related to phase of life transitions or changes, such as marital crisis, separation, divorce, marriage, remarriage, blending a family, empty nest, co parenting challenges, retirement, and you're looking for a goal-oriented approach to figuring out a pathway through, I can help. We will pinpoint the issues, set goals, get a plan in place, and work together toward positive change.

I work with those facing life transitions, uncertainty, or longing for more fulfillment in their lives and relationships. I love to help individuals relate to their inner wisdom, connect with joy and fuel their passions using a holistic approach. I am guided by the heartfelt belief that a good therapeutic alliance can improve lives through mindful attention, building skills, and gaining perspective. My clients report feeling more empowered, embodied and connected after our work together. My goal is to help individuals connect with their deep inner resources to lead richer, more satisfying lives.

Welcome! I'm glad you're here. I support individuals who desire to heal from trauma, experience relief from anxiety, explore patterns in relationships, navigate life transitions, and cultivate greater self-acceptance. I also support couples who are seeking more closeness and connection.

This world can be a painful and confusing place. Whether you’re struggling with men’s issues, ADHD, relationship issues, or a personal challenge, you may be wonder: Can I ever feel good about who I am? Is it even possible for me to be happy? Is it possible to heal from what I've been through? Regardless of your current situation, the answer to all of these questions is “Yes.” Others similarly situated have found a way out, and there is hope for you too. Sometimes a listening heart, a broader perspective, or new insights can help you reframe your understanding of your life. Learn how to treat yourself as if you were a good friend.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with several additional trainings including working with Harvard Medical School in Global Mental Health and Traumatic recovery. I have worked within many cultures and contexts including high level business executives, veterans, Indigenous and refugee populations and professional athletes. I work with individuals and couples and am available for crisis or emergency sessions.

Our thoughts hold a lot of power. When anxious thoughts take over your brain space, it leaves little room for the things you love. Negative self talk and unrealistic perfectionistic tendencies can leave us feeling like we're not enough and fearful of fulfilling our passions. Your confidence, your friendships, your relationship…all of them are impacted by the narrative inside our brains. I’m here to empower you as we work together to uncover things that no longer serve you, so you can regain your freedom and build the life you want.

I am a licensed clinical social worker and somatic practitioner with a passion for nature-based services, spiritual practices, and expressive arts. People are free to discover and share their life experiences in a safe and honoring environment. Sharing one's pain and experiences can be hard, and I strive to be a compassionate, warm and understanding listener. Each person's life story is sacred, and there are a myriad of gifts waiting to be discovered and embraced. Much of my work is with Highly Sensitive People and empathic intuitives.

Carl Rogers said, when we accept ourselves as we are, then we can change. Focusing on the individual and their unique capability toward healing is the guiding approach I take in therapy. I work with great curiosity to explore the distractions and negative cycles that may be keeping you stuck. The struggle for clarity is a difficult one to navigate in isolation; together we can look at patterns and behaviors that no longer service you. The therapeutic process is one of finding balance between the emotional and rational, the mind and body and bringing that forward into our lives.

I love working with teenagers, children and adults, and using art and talk therapy to illuminate what needs attention and attunement within the system or the individual. Art is a vehicle that invites creative expression which can free up trapped energy and allow for movement and clarity. While implementing a variety of adaptable art interventions, I also invite my clients to lead the session and will gently guide when needed. While my focus is geared towards teenagers, I am also seeing clients with eating disorders, young adults working through relationship difficulties and family systems that need some extra attention.
