Therapists in Centennial, CO

Just as trauma often happens in the context of relationship, so healing can happen in a trusting, therapeutic relationship. My experiences with the adoption triad, a high-control religious environment, and trauma have led me into this work after 25 years of raising my six children, by birth and adoption. In this, I developed a passion for helping people heal from, adjust to, and manage their traumatic life experiences and transition to healthy living. I work from a self-regulatory, attachment, processing, and connected perspective. I use an eclectic approach including EMDR, CBT, DBT, TBRI and psychoeducational approach.

Seeking out therapy can be incredibly difficult, and the fact that you are here means you are looking for transformative healing. We do the best we can with the information available to us. Sometimes, the way that we have handled challenges of the past, are no longer serving us. This is where I come in, to give you the tools to tackle challenges that are causing stress in your life. I want to walk beside you in a journey of self-discovery that helps you take back your life. We will create a space together in which no subject is too taboo, and I will accept you for exactly who you are.

People often fear that if others truly know them at the deepest level, they will be rejected, judged or pitied. I have found that the opposite is true: to know people deeply is to have compassion for them. And miraculously, being deeply known is healing. This is the basis for the work I do with my clients. Most of my work is with clients who experienced trauma or had difficult childhoods. I also work frequently with perinatal mental health issues, including birth trauma, postpartum depression, relational issues that arise after having a baby, and anxiety in the prenatal or postpartum periods.

Hi, I am Alyssa Syrdal and I am the owner and primary clinician at Juniper Therapy. I specialize in working with children, adolescents and their families. My background is in early childhood development and working with children with special needs and their families. Alongside my work with children with special needs I studied and gained great understanding and experience in working with those struggling or in recovery for an eating disorder, disordered eating, or body image concerns. In recent years I have done extensive work with children and their families regarding trauma processing, behaviors and other emotional disturbances.

My focus is in supporting you in your process as you seek solutions, resolve present/past issues, and reach your personal goals. We will look at what you can do in the present day to improve/cope with your situation, and will also determine if there are any "filters" from past relationships which are interfering with your goals and relationships.

I believe my job is to support my clients and build confidence. I value the creation of a trusting and collaborative relationship with clients where individuals, couples, and families alike may discover new paths for change. Together we can add to your tool box to assist you in overcoming anything that blocks your path to your happiest self.

This is your space - I aim to help you by providing a safe container for you to process the ups and downs of life. I’ve found that, through therapy, we can challenge perspectives around emotion and cognition. Emotions, along with thoughts, not only need to be processed and released but can also inform necessary changes in our lives. Through examining our perspectives and challenging automatic thoughts, we can change the stories we tell ourselves that keep us stuck. I believe, with the proper tools, you can feel empowered to greatly transform your mental health and improve the overall quality of your life.

I have worked in a variety of settings during my 20 years in the field of mental health. These include medical and psychiatric hospitals, substance abuse treatment facilities, college counseling centers and, for the past twelve years, my private practice. This breadth of experience is a great asset and allows me to feel comfortable working with almost any client issues, but I still find that a grounded common sense is my best tool as a therapist. I also feel that I am able to express my perceptions in a manner that clients are able to hear, understand and take into consideration.

I recognized the strength and courage in each one of my clients. I strive to create a nonjudgemental, empathic therapeutic setting where clients feel safe and validated. I am passionate about helping people who are struggling with grief and loss, trauma, depression and anxiety. Often, loss is traumatic. Through trauma work, the pain from traumatic loss lessens and a sense of purpose is restored. We live in a stressful, busy world, and life can feel overwhelming and affect relationships. My practice also focuses on stress management, mindfulness skills and repairing relationships. I see adults, adolescents/teens and their families. I offer free 60 minute consultations.

Greetings, I'm Amanda. Individuals seek therapy for various reasons, be it managing daily stress, enhancing relationships, or fostering self-confidence. Together, we'll navigate challenging emotions, and overcome obstacles towards your goals. My aim is to ensure your time is valuable and impactful. Operating with compassion and non-judgment, I create a secure environment for open dialogue. I eagerly anticipate embarking on this transformative journey with you.

Life is full of unexpected challenges and exciting opportunities, sometimes it can be difficult to navigate though it all. Whether it be stress, conflict in a relationship, adjusting to a new stage in life, managing responsibilities, family concerns or mental health, I am dedicated to fostering a safe environment and collaborating with each individual to provide quality and client centered care.

I provide psychotherapy and counseling to adults, couples and families, and have extensive training in couples work and grief therapy (including traumatic loss and loss after a suicide). I draw primarily from a Psychodynamic approach to therapy but have training in a variety of modalities, including EMDR and Brainspotting, specialized grief therapy, DBT, family systems, IFS, trauma therapy, and Imago couples therapy, so as to be able to meet my clients where they are and with what might best attend to their issues.

I focus on working with couples and individuals who have relationship difficulties, as well as people with struggles related to past pain/trauma, depression, or anxiety. Often these can culminate in symptoms that seem vague and difficult to define and can look a variety of ways. Any of these can make you feel like life has just become too difficult or painful to process on your own. I also work with couples of all kinds who need help working through issues and couples looking for premarital counseling.
