Therapists in Broomfield, CO

I have been working in mental health for over five years in a variety of settings and completed my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Colorado Denver in 2021. I work with adults to treat a variety of concerns including depression and anxiety, individuals navigating life transitions, identity development, stress, grief and loss, and relationship conflict. I love working with adults who seek to build trust and compassion for themselves and utilize DBT, CBT, IFS and SFBT along with a collaborative and strengths-based approach.

Starting therapy can be scary but you don’t have to face it alone. I strive to create a comfortable and safe space where clients can openly and without judgment explore their thoughts and emotions. You are the expert on your life and I hope to work collaboratively with you to help facilitate growth, healing, understanding, and empowerment within your life.

You feel stuck. You are in your head processing everything, all-day, every-day, from your relationships to your work-life. You’re always overthinking, over-analyzing… each conversation and replaying every interaction in your mind. A never-ending loop of anxious thoughts spins through your mind. These thoughts distract you from living your life. You try to do self-care, but you can’t seem to get any relief. Instead, you feel overwhelmed with fear, guilt, and confusion. Self-doubt consumes you. It’s exhausting endlessly second-guessing yourself. Your fear and insecurities overpower you and they’re taking over your life. You feel lost.

Are the constant stressors of life wearing down on you? Have you lost motivation to do the things that once brought you joy? Do you find yourself isolating from your support system? You are not broken. You have so much magic inside of you waiting to come back to the surface!

I help families of teens go from worry and anxiety to renewed connection and happiness. We all want our kids to be happy, and it’s hard to watch them struggle. Our teens face the same adolescent challenges we did (intense emotions & feeling "different," without having the long-range view adulthood brings)--but they also navigate the additional stress of violence (school shootings), grief (rising suicide rates), exposure (social media) and non-stop accessibility (smartphones + internet). While our teens wrestle with anxiety and feel alone, parents worry they could lose their kid to depression, mental health issues, or even suicide.

When you walk through my door, I welcome each of you into my tribe. The innate vulnerability and humbleness of your mere presence are both respected and appreciated. In our shared space, values are rooted in empathy, awareness, accountability, and integrity. I believe only YOU are the true expert and historian of your life, and I graciously stand beside you on this path of exploration, healing, and endless growth. I am an ear, a tool, a voice, and at times a guide to support you on this beautiful and winding path.

My practice is focused on understanding the individual needs of each of my clients and learning about the experiences, values, identities, and cultures that shape them. My priority is to provide you with the rapport, space, and resources needed to grow, learn, and improve your life in a safe, affirming environment. Whether you find yourself struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, life transitions, or the general stress of everyday life, I would love to explore how I can be of assistance to you.

I work with adults (25 years and older) who are struggling to find purpose, meaning, and fulfillment in everyday life. I see clients who often experience an unexplainable emptiness inside or wonder why it is difficult to feel a sense of connection to the people in their lives. Difficulty accessing joy, loneliness, moments of hopelessness, depression, anxiety, and trauma can be a part of the story. Sometimes there is emotional pain associated with past and current relationships with family, and sometimes also with friends, colleagues, and romantic partners.

I can help you achieve and maintain balance in your life, identify values, and support you as you gain effective assertiveness skills. Through increasing self-awareness you can build a rich, rewarding life no matter the circumstances.

Life can feel overwhelming. You do not need to navigate these challenges alone. When we feel lost or overwhelmed it can create a sense of disconnect from ourselves and those around us. The life of your dreams is possible, and your decision to seek help is an incredibly powerful one. My specialities include helping individuals who are struggling with trauma, addictions, anxiety, and depression.

Are you feeling stuck in the past due to stressful or traumatic experiences? Is anxiety or a lack of confidence holding you back from living the life you desire? Do you feel stressed or overwhelmed by your job, relationships, or major life changes? While these challenges are common, you don't have to face them alone or let them prevent you from achieving your goals. Together, we can discuss your current struggles and create a path forward so you can live the life you want!

It takes courage to ask for help and make your needs a priority. I am committed to walking with you on this journey as you discover the path to your personal happy place. My focus is on growth, empowerment, and positive change. I create a warm, supportive and encouraging environment that is individualized to meet your unique needs.

Supporting client through life experiences has always been my passion, ever since becoming a therapist 20 years ago. I specialize in helping adults navigate and heal from adverse life events, or traumas that have happened to them without their choosing, leaving them at a loss, and with their life disrupted. My personal experience with trauma paired with my extensive work with clients who’ve faced similar struggles, has allowed me to witness and truly value each person's capacity to overcome life's challenges, feel oneself again and find well-being.

Welcome. My name is Trey, and I’m glad you’re here. You can expect to be heard, validated, and encouraged with me as your counselor—and you can expect to be challenged in areas where more insight or action is needed for you to reach the tipping point that leads to breakthrough moments. I approach counseling from an integrative model, with a particular emphasis in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I believe counseling is highly relational, and once a strong therapeutic relationship is formed we identify your specific goals and work towards them.
