Existential Therapists in Denver, CO

I have worked in multiple clinical settings with various populations. I appreciate working with clients who are navigating existential crises, those who are looking for a better understanding to the meaning of life. This experience can help clients identify and break negative or unhealthy patterns in their lives. I am a firm believer in the power of perception-shifting, in order to identify a silver lining in even the most difficult situations. My therapeutic approach is dynamic and eclectic. My goal with all of my clients is to walk beside them through their struggles and help them come through their struggles feeling stronger.

I take a non-judgmental, empathic, compassionate, and insight-oriented approach to therapy. Current research, as well as my experience and training help me to determine the treatment strategies from psychodynamic, relational, humanistic, existential, cognitive and behavioral approaches that will be most effective in addressing your concerns. I work to create a supportive environment that facilitates reflectiveness, creativity and that helps you increase insight into your present struggles. I believe that your view of yourself and the issues that have lead to their seeking therapy are influenced by your unique life experiences.

Welcome! I am so glad you are here. I believe that my role in therapy is to crate a safe and non-judgmental space where you can feel seen and accepted. My approach to counseling is person centered and strength based, where we will work together to address the circumstances that are bringing you to therapy. My goal is to support you in accessing your innate wisdom and to process difficult life events to find relief, resilience, confidence and empowerment. With over 17 years of experience, I bring a trauma informed, contemplative approach, offering compassion, mindfulness, art therapy and somatic therapy.

My desire to care for people and improve their quality of life, combined with my own healing journey, are what made me fall in love with counseling. I really believe that we are not meant to face life's challenges alone. Life can be overwhelming, leaving us feeling weary, uncertain, and stuck. But I believe that within every person is a wellspring of strength and resilience waiting to be discovered. Together, we can navigate the complexities of life, untangle the knots of trauma, anxiety, confusion, and hurt, and forge new paths toward freedom and wholeness.

Hi, my name is Rivers. I’m a psychotherapist who’s primarily influenced by the contemplative, existential, and psychoanalytic movements in psychology. My goal is to cultivate a space where you can feel free to show up exactly as you are in the moment, without censoring yourself for fear of judgement or ridicule. I believe wholeheartedly in what is known in psychoanalysis as “the talking cure.”

Have you ever felt alone, tokenized, or shamed for being "different"? After so many of these experiences, you start shaming yourself and doubting your worth. Shame is sneaky and it can cause destruction within ourselves. You may not fully believe that you’re lovable, but you want to get there one day. There are many societal forces that keep us from connecting with our inner selves and the world around us. I’m passionate about equipping folks with the tools to navigate racial trauma and the effects of colonialism. I can support you to embrace self-love & confidence by encouraging connection with your authentic self.

Everyone wants to feel better, but I want to know: how does that look for you?

My clients are living with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, and existential questions.

Hey there! I’m Ashley Fennell and my focus in working with clients is to build an authentic, caring, and trusting therapeutic relationship while empowering you and acknowledging that you are the expert on your life. I enjoy working with young and older adults, specifically those who are dealing with anxiety, depression, and/or relationship issues (i.e. familial, friendships, couples, etc.). My goal is to support you in finding your own voice and inner guidance while increasing your personal awareness.

The complex issues of life, from trauma, grief and loss to depression and anxiety can be overwhelming. The seemingly less complex issues of life, like life transitions and general life satisfaction can be equally overwhelming when we face them alone. This is the true value of therapy.

My clients deal with so much speed and stress. They are navigating life that feels increasingly unfulfilled. They feel stuck. They often seek solace in external solutions like too much work, toxic relationships, or substances, and find all these lacking. They face the challenge of pausing to understand and meet their internal needs, which feels paradoxical. How to slow down when there's all this to do? This leads to more stress, anxiety, and a pervasive sense of dissatisfaction with life. There is a way through all this.

Are you tired of being held back by conditioned tendencies and outdated personal narratives? Do difficult emotions get in the way of you living in accordance with your deepest values? I believe therapy is a laboratory of sorts, where you can begin to try out new ways of being. My hope is that you come away from therapy with an expanded sense of confidence, authenticity, and courage. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, shame, addiction, men's issues, grief, or a loss of purpose, I believe that the voyage is easier with a trusted companion.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression/grief, or frustration/anger? I am optimistic we can work together to reduce these symptoms, so that you can move forward with renewed confidence and hope. Changes of life issues: death of a loved-one; marriage/divorce; loss of good health; financial concerns; or problems with relationships, often precipitate these symptoms in many people. Yet, these painful situations also present wonderful opportunities for reflection, personal growth, and resolution.
