Borderline Personality (BPD) Therapists in Lodo, Denver, CO

Hi! I’m a very supportive and empathetic therapist with 5 years of experience. I am committed to providing you a safe space where your feelings will be validated and your experiences acknowledged. I am very understanding and non-judgmental. I am very skilled at teaching coping mechanisms and self care as well as emotional resilience which is so needed in this trying time. I will provide you with therapeutic guidance until you are at the point where you have achieved emotional wellness, healthy self awareness and have improved at cultivating the healthy relationships you need.

Are you searching for a therapist who understands that your symptoms or diagnosis may require more than conventional approaches? My practice is tailored for individuals who have faced challenges in their therapeutic journey, including being turned away due to the complexity of their symptoms or unique accessibility needs. I believe in embracing innovative techniques, such as allowing clients to enjoy meals during our sessions, utilizing gaming as a therapeutic tool, and incorporating non-verbal modes of communication.

Welcome! With a dual background in Clinical Psychology and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), I bring an integrative approach to therapy along with 8 years of experience. My Clinical Psychology expertise allows me to understand the complexities of human behavior, emotions, and mental health disorders. Additionally, my proficiency in ABA empowers me to utilize scientifically validated principles to bring about positive behavioral changes. By combining these two disciplines, this enables me to create individualized treatment plans, fostering sustainable progress, and empowering clients to achieve their therapeutic goals effectively.

I have experience working with individuals managing lives touched with mood and anxiety disorders, including depression and bipolar; grief; domestic violence (offenders and victims); physical, emotional and sexual abuse; custody issues; family reunification; marriage/relationship hurdles; problem sexual behavior; borderline personality disorder/characteristics; PTSD; ADD/ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder and other sensory disorders; death and dying; caretaking of ill and aging family members; and life change events, i.e. anything that is a positive change, but also brings with it fear, doubt and lots of unknowns.

I am passionate about bringing healing to all aspects of a person. I specialize in trauma, complex trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. I take an eclectic approach in my counseling practice and use the techniques that work for each individual in order to bring harmony to all parts of a person’s internal system. Trauma causes deep and lasting effects on the survivor's thought processes, nervous system, and physical body. Behaviors and reactions of trauma survivors can be seemingly unpredictable, confusing, contradictory and lead to pathologizing diagnosis.

I accept all walks of life with an open mind and an open door. I'm here to listen and to learn about you. It's your journey and your life. Allow me to be a person to walk beside you instead of behind you or in front of you. I take a direct approach without being harsh or critical. When you come in my door (physically or virtually), you are taking the first step towards healing. My session costs range from $65-80 depending on financial need.

The work at our group practice, Better Lives Building Tribes, focuses on that complex point, at which, individuals intersect with another. Through intimate/romantic relationships, friendships, partnerships, families, and organizations that we are surrounded by, we learn where individual strengths and weaknesses are. Through that knowledge and understanding, we work with people to discover creative means of closing the gap between where people are right now and where they would ideally like to be.

You feel worn down by self-criticism, anxiety, and shame. You doubt yourself and overanalyze situations or things you've said until you're exhausted and embarrassed. You've always felt different from others—you wish you didn't have to feel everything so deeply, that you weren't as easily overwhelmed by the "small" things in life. You're past the point of burnout, or you're quickly approaching it. More than anything, you want to trust yourself, feel more confident, and be able to manage overwhelming and painful feelings when they come up.

Let's be real, living in the world we live in is a challenge right now. Constant changes and stressors, most out of our control. Generational gaps causing rifts in families, work, and online.

Or do you want to better yourself and don't know where to start? Perhaps you're facing big changes in relationships or at work that are overwhelming. Whatever the challenges, let's face them together.

I believe strongly in the power of the relationship in therapy and that in order for true healing to occur we must address the mind and the body. I therefore use a relational and trauma-informed, somatically oriented approach drawing primarily from NARM and EMDR in order to help clients identify and overcome barriers and reclaim their lives. My passion lies in helping individuals unravel the intricate threads of trauma in order to illuminate a path towards self-regulation and healthy relationships. My primary focus is treating individuals suffering from symptoms stemming from complex trauma, PTSD, and relational trauma.

`Do you feel like no one understands you or that you struggle to understand yourself? Does anxiety overwhelm you? Is it getting in the way of sleep, relationships and decisions making? I believe it’s time to stand up to yourself and for yourself. Together, we can determine a new course for you. You don’t have to spend your life escaping a difficult reality anymore. You can learn skills to help you face reality, and enjoy the life you have.

My passion is in helping people befriend their nervous system, develop a deeper connection with themself and others, and build lifelong strategies to utilize in times of distress. I specialize in serving queer & trans people, non-monogamous individuals, and those in kink, BDSM, and sex-work communities. Regardless of your identities or experiences, I believe that all people deserve collaborative, culturally competent care, and I strive to create a warm and non-judgmental environment where people can come as they are.
