Therapists in Boulder, CO

You have arrived at the right place if you long for more emotional connection, intimacy, sexual fulfillment, productive communication, and security! I will support you as you strive to achieve satisfaction and fulfillment in love and relationships.

Life's challenges can be difficult to navigate on your own. Whether you are affected by current or past traumatic events, relationship issues, feeling stuck, lost, anxious, depressed, or just seeking to further your personal growth, talking with someone who can act as a mirror can help. Therapy is not only a valuable tool to support you through the hardest times - counseling can also help you identify your strengths and tap into inner wisdom for lasting, organic healing in all phases of life! Our sessions will be tailored to your needs, and can adapt as your goals, need and wants evolve.

Being a human in the world is both an inherently beautiful and painful process. Grief, loss and trauma shape the ways that we approach our daily lives, and sometimes the pain that accompanies these experiences becomes more than anyone can manage on their own. We develop coping strategies in an effort to safely navigate the world, and occasionally these coping strategies become problematic or no longer work for us. Change can be hard and it can be scary, but it can also be exciting and fulfilling; my hope is to help create space to access the range of experiences that arise through the therapeutic process.

I help individuals and couples find independence, clarity, joy & meaning. Many of my clients come to me wrestling with attachment wounds, boundaries, heartbreak, troubling communication & behavior patterns and issues of self-confidence. I work collaboratively with my clients to provide an accepting space to explore life experiences, habitual reactions, childhood pain and expectations of relationships. This process can often be uncomfortable, which makes trust and safety my priority. I work from the lenses of Narrative, Attachment-based, Acceptance & Commitment and Emotionally Focused therapies.

There is nothing I enjoy more than helping people improve their lives and relationships; feel less stressed and more content. I take a down-to-earth approach that focuses on your particular needs, desires and goals. Then we come up with a plan for how to enable you to meet your goals.

I am a psychotherapist and expressive arts therapist based in Boulder, CO. I use a trauma-informed approach that draws on the depth of relational psychoanalysis, the practicality of cognitive behavioral therapy, and the expressive magic of somatic and art-based approaches. I love working with anxiety and OCD-related disorders, embodiment and trauma healing, relationship issues, gifted populations, and people looking to nurture their creativity. I work with adults, couples, and teens. I’m especially passionate about the journey of individuation while holding each unique life story in a social justice context.

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 help men who are feeling stuck discover their passion. After helping hundreds of men tune into themselves, find well-being, and reconnect to themselves I look forward to helping you on your unique path.

There are moments in life that knock us off our feet, leave us feeling fragmented, out of breath, and unsure of how to stand back up again.

You can stand back up again and find meaning and purpose in your work, relationships, spirituality, and all facets of life.

Hi there, I'm a licensed professional counselor. If you are feeling unmoored, not knowing up from down, confused and lost: you have most likely been met with the most pivotal time in your life. It can very strange to suddenly feel like you aren’t sure where your headed. What you use to want, doesn’t seem to apply anymore. There is a simultaneous longing with feelings of grief. This is a threshold. I have specific training and expertise as a grief counselor so I know this landscape well. It is difficult and strange. This time in your life is wanting your attention and support and I provide a place for you to “land."

Are you or (you and your partner(s) seeking a more easeful path through life? Are you interested in connecting the wisdom of your own body, exploring your emotional landscape, quieting your inner monologue and linking to your internal guides & elements of the natural world? Are you seeking a mental health professional who can help you align deeply in the ways you wish? My passion is to skillfully support you in building resiliency, agency, and strengthen the inherent knowings that are vital to you. My therapeutic style infuses a warm, honest, connective & creative environment while emphasizing your needs in the therapy space.

My practice is focused on helping you in immediate, effective ways to change for the better. My practice is guided by neuroscience and a wide variety of therapeutic approaches oriented toward cognitive clarity, mindfulness, and self-compassion. The key goal from the first is to empower you to achieve affect regulation and to convert challenges to opportunities.

Have you been curious about deepening your therapy experience in a creative way? Through a collaborative and relational approach, I support teens and young adults in their healing process through art therapy. Art therapy can serve as a way to process emotions, gain insight, and work with troubling material to give you the opportunity to work with it in a new format. My ideal client is someone who is ready and willing to gain self awareness, is hopeful for change, is open to creative therapy, and is seeking support with struggles such as trauma, depression, anxiety, family dysfunction, and self destructive behaviors.

I believe our emotional lives - our feelings & memories - provide vital links to our capacity for aliveness. However, we often struggle to makes sense of these experiences and to use them for meaningful change. Core emotions that frequently haunt us like fear, anger, sadness, loneliness can be openings to a greater sense of meaning when explored, elaborated, and understood in a therapeutic group setting.
