Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists in Castle Rock, CO

Intuition may have led you here not because you know exactly what is wrong, but because something doesn't feel right. I look forward to guiding you back to the health you seek. You are not broken or "damaged" by trauma, abuse, or relationship fracture, you have just lost your way. You know this because anxiety, depression and self doubt have shown up like a relentless storm threatening to capsize you. Sadly, this may even be at its worst within a relationship that should offer nurturing and growth but instead is toxic and painful. I can help you create your life worth living, and thrive in it.

I work with those struggling with addiction of many kinds, and also those that love them. I know that seeking out Addiction Counseling can be stressful, uncomfortable and difficult. It is my goal to help you and your family find freedom from the life issues that come with addiction. I have been working in this field for over 30 years with diverse populations in varied settings; this has provided me with experience in being flexible and recognizing that each person has unique needs.

If you are dealing with mental health issues that don't seem to be resolving with traditional weekly talk therapy. An Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) might be beneficial. An IOP can provide skills to help with Emotional Regulation, Coping Stragegies, Communication Skills, Interpersonal Skills, Conflict Resolution and Mindfulness. Often medications may be necessary to help with symptom relief, our practice provides psychiatric assessments and medication management for those needing medications.

I’m passionate about establishing an authentic connection with my clients and offering a safe place where they can show their true self and feel heard. My goal is to create a welcoming atmosphere that promotes health, healing, and acceptance.

Connecting with others through understanding and the desire to cultivate authentic and genuine relationships, habits, and lifestyle patterns for a more successful you. While I consider this role rewarding for me, I want these sessions and experiences to be just as rewarding for you.

We often feel the need to alter how we present in the world to make others more comfortable but when we find ways to show up more authentically ourselves and communicate with those around us we often find much more joy. I enjoy helping people figure out who they are and how they want to show up in the world. Whether you are interested in changing your relationships or planning for the future it can be helpful to explore what is truly you. When working with individuals with autism and their families I enjoy exploring how to communicate our experiences to others and gaining a deeper understanding for those around us.

You're not sure why, but the people you love most: your kids, spouse, mother/father/siblings-have turned into triggers that bring out the worst in you. Despite your love for them, you find yourself acting in ways you swore you never would. You're yelling at your kids, always angry at your partner, and you feel like you're always failing. In short, you're hurting the people you love most. You want to show up for your loved ones with peace rather than chaos and stress. You want to ditch the feelings of not being enough.

At Thrive Counseling & Wellness, I have had extensive experience working with adults who experience chronic anxiety, depression, chronic pain, stress, relationship problems, self-esteem issues. I tend to take a client centered perspective; I utilize different therapies to suit each individual client's needs. It's not always about the specific theory but more about what can I do to assist the client in achieving the perspective, growth and success that they desire. My ultimate goal is to "walk with the client" as he/she processes, experiences and implements the tools needed to effect helpful change.

Hi! :) I frequently work with women who are trying to leave or have recently left an abusive relationship. You might notice you want to find independence and discover your identity outside of the relationship and are still impacted by the pain you went through. We will explore attachment wounds, trauma(s), and/or other emotional burdens that need attention and relief. We will work together to help you find ways to move forward with your life in a new, healthier direction. I also work with folks who have unresolved childhood trauma and notice symptoms of discomfort that they are ready to leave in the past.

Are you ready for a change? Did a change in life happen to you? The impacts of change often go untalked about. Change can create uncertainty, fear, and anxiety. Change can also be a catalyst for improved mental health, coping strategies, and deeper connections. You don’t need to do this alone. Let’s talk about what is happening in your life.

People have an inherent need to be understood and tell their story in order to live the life they imagine. My job as therapist is to listen, and learn from you and guide you toward better self-care, and to make the changes necessary to look inside yourself to see what might be holding you back from living a full happy life. As a licensed clinical social worker, I believe often times the things which keep us from moving forward are in our environment, such as toxic relationships, poverty, lack of education, drugs and alcohol, and past traumas.

You are not defined by the struggles that are keeping you stuck. Anxiety, depression, trauma, and other problems take ahold of our lives and prevent us from reaching our full potential. We experience feelings of hopelessness that we cannot seem to shake. The idea of “self love” can be difficult to even imagine when we have created negative stories about ourselves. Happiness feels far out of reach and the path to healing is unclear. Pain can lead us to isolate and accept the belief that we are alone and no one can help us.

If you and/or your family need professional help with any of the following: trauma recovery, PTSD, substance abuse, chronic illness/medical trauma, grief, relationships or difficult life changes, I have the compassion and training to help. One of the most effective treatments for trauma, depression, anxiety and work performance fears is EMDR Therapy in which I am trained and have used extensively. I use many other types of therapy and enjoy seeing clients find hope in their lives. I work with individuals 18 and over, older adults and families.
