Relational Therapists in 80202

I believe that given the safety, support, and tools, we all have an innate capacity to heal and live full lives. Our brains and bodies are designed for this purpose, and my goal as a therapist is to empower clients through relational and body-based treatments to rebuild the relationship with themselves and others. I work with clients seeking support to heal from experiences of trauma, abuse, and loss, as well as those managing burnout, anxiety, and depression. I specialize in treating trauma-related disorders, including those developed following sexual and intimate partner violence, childhood abuse, and traumatic loss.

I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults, and families. I’m here to empower you in increasing self-awareness, improving your ability to truly feel and release emotions, and learning how to attune to both yourself and others. I meet each person with an open and nonjudgmental presence while blending together different modalities including emotionally focused therapy (EFT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and the brain-body relational therapy of brainspotting (BSP). I integrate the approaches that best fit the needs of the person(s) in front of me.

My therapeutic skills cover a wide variety of areas, but are particularly well suited to help those who want to actualize their full potential, become more Empowered, and for those with Internet Addiction (video game addiction, porn addiction, social media addiction, and spending/gambling addiction). Engaging in therapy with me can help you develop more agency and set you on the path to becoming who you want to be. Typical areas of focus in therapy include improving relationship/communication skills, reducing anxiety/depression, living more authentically, developing better balance, setting boundaries, and becoming more assertive.

I use a strengths-based approach, with an integrative and multicultural model, bringing both evidenced-based practices while remaining person-centered empowering you to guide your treatment. I want to work collaboratively with you to help you understand and change the patterns in your life that may be holding you back.

You don't have to navigate this alone any longer, let's work together towards your goals and growth you have been striving for.

Welcome! My approach to therapy is collaborative and relational. I work to support clients in developing an increasingly complex and embodied understanding of themselves in the context of the relationships and systems that they interact with. Through our work together, clients can expect to uncover habitual patterns of behavior that interfere with living the life they want, and over time to experience an increased sense of choice and flexibility in their actions. I aim to support individuals in developing a greater sense of comfort with themselves, and an increased ability to cope with the inevitable challenges that life offers.

Many aspects of life can be difficult, recurring and even intolerable. Hope or frustration may have led you to seek therapy, in pursuit of changes that continue to mystify you. Therapy can offer support in making clearer sense of what it is you are experiencing in your life and relationships, working towards adjustments that create new possibilities and insights. Sometimes things don't change, though, and you may have to contend with that powerlessness too. In therapy together, we can use our working relationship to explore challenges and hopes you are facing, developing new capacities for navigating life and relationships.

Many people struggle with feeling like they need to push through and avoid the hurt and stress they’ve been carrying to be strong. My passion is in helping you lift the burden you’ve been carrying and truly see and hear your story. You don't need a reason to start therapy, sometimes you just need someone to talk with and process life and all of its twists and turns. As an attachment therapist, we’ll look at how your symptoms are not a reflection of some personal flaw, but rather as a symptom of a larger relational problem. My goal is to become a safe and consistent attachment figure for you.

Maybe you're newly single, or new to town, and you despair because you're lonely, you feel lost, and you wonder if things will ever get better. Perhaps you have a history of complicated relationships, and you've noticed you repeat the same cycle but can't stop. Or could it be you say yes... to everything and everyone, and now you're burned out and resentful. Getting up in the morning is a struggle. You're on the verge of crying. You're lashing out. Whatever is going on, your situation is leaving you anxious, discouraged, and even hopeless at times. Sometimes life circumstances feel overwhelming, confusing, or just plain hard.

Hello! My name is RuthAnn, and I am a licensed clinical psychologist who believes there are many ways to “do therapy” well. Therapy can be brief and educational; therapy can be ongoing and more relational; or therapy can be intermittent with “episodes of care” here and there as needed. I have seen all these approaches work with the people I have supported over the years. Therapy should be tailored. By taking a biopsychosocial-spiritual approach to health and well-being, my goal is to collaborate with you as we figure out what is going on, and what will be most helpful next. Then we make it happen!

Collaboratively, we focus on healing, resilience, and reconnection. Feeling ashamed is scary and overwhelming. These feelings are more common than we admit and stem from a variety of factors. It makes sense to respond to unpleasant emotions by burying, avoiding, or resisting. If unprocessed, these beliefs impact our thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and lives--leaving us repeating painful patterns and shaping our perceptions and relationships with ourselves, others, and the world.

I specialize in working with couples and individuals facing relationship transitions (divorce, coparenting, platonic partnership consideration, etc.), sexual or relational desire and orientation differences (including kink, non-monogamy, and sexual orientation, gender transitions, and more), sexual and religious trauma (for ex., "exvangelicals" and queer folks with oppression trauma), intimate partner violence trauma, healing from a breach of trust, coming out and gender exploration/transition (one or both partners), and more. I frequently work with LGBTQIA/queer couples and the parents of LGBTQIA+ youth. I do work with youth 14+.
