My focus is perinatal mental health, early childhood & infant mental health, and family relationships. I love supporting mothers and caregivers with their transition to parenthood, helping clients manage that shift in identity and family dynamic, and supporting mammas who might also be struggling with postpartum mood changes. I also love supporting families in building and strengthening the parent-child relationship, helping families finding joy in each other and increase their confidence in understanding and communicating with each other, particularly when their young children have experienced trauma.

I specialize in working with children as well as adults processing childhood trauma.
I believe we are all capable of growth and wellness. My goal is to offer you a safe place to come and work on your most personal and inner self. My theoretical approach is client-centered, focusing on the counseling relationship and self-exploration. The counseling relationship is the most important part of the process to me because it models what unconditional acceptance and authenticity feels like. I offer a holistic perspective to wellness, working with you to consider self-care routines and mindfulness practices.

I have extensive experience working with the needs of identified Gifted children and teens.
Gifted students tend to set high expectations and standards for themselves; are perfectionistic and become profoundly disappointed, stressed, and hopeless if they feel they have failed to measure up to their expectations. Gifted individuals are intense and sensitive. Some may view these "big emotions" as illogical, scary, and risky. They need support in balancing their interpersonal and emotional self with their intellectual and logical self. Through setting goals that are realistic and healthy, educating gifted about their overexcitabilities, introducing healthy coping strategies, and self-soothing tools prove very impactful.

I also enjoy working with adolescents and children, as well as adults.
I view counseling as a dynamic process between a client and therapist. My theoretical orientation is dependent upon what would be most appropriate for the client. I view each client as unique and I use techniques that are designed to meet that client's specific needs. I listen carefully to my clients so that I can empower, confront when appropriate, teach, encourage, and guide them so they can grow emotionally, spiritually, psychologically and socially. I respect the clients I work with. I want people to participate in a healing process without fear that they will be judged or coerced.

You can expect to improve your communication and intimacy and form a new pattern of relating that fosters a safe, secure, and satisfying bond. It is so rewarding to help couples build intimacy, communicate better, heal trust, and thrive. Reach out to me to begin this work together!

When working with and supporting parents, we will develop plans together to help build the skills necessary to modify behavioral outcomes in home and school settings. I work from a solutions-focused perspective that can hopefully generate some quick action steps in addition to the underlying work on causes, building self-esteem, and developing identity.

My name is Erin Thomas and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Northern Colorado. In therapy, every client is different and has differing needs for the healing process to occur. This is why the most important step to me in working with a client is establishing a trusting relationship at the beginning of therapy so that I can understand how to help in the most effective way. Connecting with others in a way that supports them through difficult times in their lives has been my passion and I continue to look for new ways to help those who struggle.

I have extensive training in experiential play therapy with children from trauma backgrounds, but this technique can be used with all children.
Things often happen in life that are out of our control, so having a space where you can safely share those experiences and feelings, tell your story to be heard, and get the support you need to overcome those hard times. For children this can be even hard because they often do not understand what happened to them, they just know they feel different and now respond differently. Children need someone who can meet them where they are and help them regain confidence and find ways to cope with and make sense of the trauma they experienced. Children, like others, want to be heard and validated in their experiences and feelings.
