Gottman Method Therapists in Denver, CO

Have you noticed you have been struggling to wake and feel confident about what’s ahead? Perhaps you feel no one else really understands? I want to help you on your path to discovering your values and how to achieve them. Life is not meant to be lived on the sidelines, you have everything inside of you to be the author of your life, and I can help you write the story the way YOU want it to be. I don’t think therapy must be a painful experience, or a last resort. Therapy can be something that can offer solutions for what you thought you, maybe, were the only one dealing with.

Are you and your partner feeling like roommates instead of a couple? Are you an adult woman frustrated with intimacy and connection? Do you struggle with communication, misunderstandings, and repetitive, unresolved conversations? Intimacy and connection issues leaving you feeling distant? My ideal clients are facing these challenges, yearning to feel connected and in love again. Together, we will reestablish your romantic bond, enhance mutual understanding and validation, and bring a sense of teamwork to your relationship. Let’s transform your relationship from one of distant roommates to an intimate, loving partnership once more.

Couples who begin to work with me are often arguing over trivial matters, wondering why gridlock is happening now when it never used to.The same issues keep coming up, and processing it only leaves you feeling exhausted and isolated. Nothing changes and the conflict involves pointing fingers, bringing up past wrongs, and tearing each other down. Money-related fights may add strain, perhaps alongside issues involving alcohol, pornography, or betrayal. Intimacy is lacking, leaving you both feeling unloved. What if you had the tools to fix your relationship? A playbook for the hard times but also a playbook to have way more good times?

Unable to accept new clients at this time. I excel in assisting clients with conflict, relationship issues, communication, life stressors, transitions, couples counseling, premarital counseling, and substance abuse. I incorporate the well-known Gottman method into my work, which not only benefits couples, but individuals through a special couples lens that not all therapists can provide. My background working with psychiatric crisis services allows me to gently approach the most challenging situations you bring.

I work with individuals, couples, and families who are looking to deepen their connection with themselves and those around them. With couples and families, I help co-create more meaningful connections by repairing patterns and wounds while restoring safety and security. With individuals, I support their journey toward deeper self-awareness and resiliency, empowering them to face life’s challenges with purpose and ease.

Try releasing your shoulders from your ears, unclenching your jaw, and removing your tongue from the roof of your mouth. We tend to hold onto stress in the least noticeable ways and subtle changes can help bring awareness to our stress patterns. Whether you find yourself struggling with anxiety, sexual/gender identity, relationships, life transitions, or the general stress of everyday life, you are in the right place. My hope is that through collaboration and a safe space to explore whatever it is you may be facing, I can be of support to you along your way.

Hi, I'm Estefanía, and I'm excited to accompany you and your loved ones as you embark on your journey toward healing and personal growth. Whether you're facing unresolved childhood trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, or relationship challenges, remember that you're not alone – I'm here to support you every step of the way. With over 8 years of licensed experience, I provide bilingual therapy services in English and Spanish, celebrating diversity in all its facets. From an anti-oppressive stance, I strive to ensure that each individual, couple, and family I work with feels valued, understood, and respected.

I only meet online and I accept insurance for individuals but not for couples. I work best with clients who are dedicated to developing new skills that are proven to help with couples issues, anxiety, depression, borderline, bipolar, and addiction. I'm highly competent with and welcome clients of diverse backgrounds including but not limited to LGBTQ+, non-monogamous, sex positive, kink aware, and type 1 Autism (Asperger's). My clients learn how to develop healthier thinking patterns and integrate new behaviors that effectively improve relationships and manage difficult emotions.

Relationships are hard work and sometimes you need a third party to support you in breaking through old wounds and limiting patterns getting in the way of healthy connection. If you are tired of being stuck in destructive patterns in your relationship, I can support you in getting unstuck and finding deeper and healthier connection. I also serve couples in crisis who are searching for clarity and confidence to make decisions about the future of their relationship. I help couples feeling stuck due to trauma or other challenges to find a way forward.

Are you feeling stuck in your life? Are you and your partner feeling disconnected? Or are you struggling to get a handle on your relationship with alcohol or drugs? I work with individuals who want to improve their depression, anxiety, self esteem, or difficulty navigating life transitions and relationships so they can create the life they want. I also specialize in working with couples who are seeking to improve their communication, intimacy, friendship, and reestablish trust. I have extensive experience in treatment for substance use and enjoy working with couples and individuals who are managing addiction or addiction recovery.

Healing and growth takes place in the context of relationships - in our relationship with ourselves, and in our relationships with others. Unfortunately, sometimes our relationships become distant, disconnected and a place of conflict, leaving us with unmet needs and just feeling “stuck.” We don’t feel safe asking for what we need, and maybe don’t even know what we need ourselves. The therapeutic relationship in counseling provides an authentic and safe place in which healing can begin to take place.

I am currently only taking couples or family clients cash pay, and I offer a sliding scale. Common areas I can help with: Better ways to address conflict, help to stop avoiding topics, more effective communication, building trust, support and relationship strengthening after death of a child, and evaluation of current relational strengths and areas for growth. Couples therapy is hard work, and if everyone is willing to be flexible and try new things, change can happen very quickly!

Licensed Addictions Counselor - CO; EMDR Therapist, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist (EFT), Certified Gestalt Therapist, AEDP Therapist, DBT Therapist & Mindfulness, Gottman Method trained. Pain and struggle are often the doorways into strength, wisdom, compassion, beauty, joy. Rather than getting stuck in fight, flight or freeze mode, discover your authentic self. Primary specialities: depression, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma, addictions, grief & loss.

I specialize in working with individuals and couples to explore dating, relationship patterns, attachment, and trauma. I'm especially passionate in supporting the queer community. Together, we work to identify and examine recurring patterns with care and curiosity. In individual work, this can look like exploring your early experiences that informed your attachment style and connecting these patterns to the way you show up or abandon yourself today. In relationship therapy, we bring awareness to the dynamic between partners these individual experiences create to deepen connection, enhance vulnerability, and improve communication.

I specialize in working with both couples and individuals who are dealing with complex trauma, PTSD, and religious trauma, as well as those who are exploring their identity and navigating life transitions, such as relationship ruptures, career changes & grief. I provide therapy to both adults and youth ages 16+. In addition, I specialize in working with Latin/Hispanic and LGBTQIA+ individuals. I am particularly passionate about supporting expats and professionals from Latin American countries as they adjust to a new culture and build a life away from home. I work with couples experiencing trauma, life crises, and major transitions.

Hi, I'm glad you're here! Looking for a therapist can feel overwhelming, and I'm so excited for you to find the therapist who feels like a match to you. I have experience working with relationships, eating disorders, addiction, mood disorders and trauma and I regularly work with adults, adolescents, and couples. I believe therapeutic work needs to be collaborative to be successful. My philosophy is to support the individuals and couples I work with in reaching the goals they set for themselves through treatment plans we create together.

I am passionate about working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, shame, self-esteem, disordered eating, sexual or gender identity and other LGBTQIA+ issues, life transitions, body image, disordered eating, relationship/family/friendship issues, psychedelic integration, personal motivation, or fitting into societal expectations or “norms.” I also work with and support romantic monogamous or ENM relationships.

I am so glad you have taken the first step towards a better you! I look forward to connecting with you and helping you improve your life and relationships through a collaborative, supportive process of exploring the connections between your thoughts, feelings, and actions. I utilize solution focused therapy where we envision what you want your life to look like and identify the old habits and feelings that are blocking you from achieving your desired life.

I believe that curiosity heals, that healing comes from approaching our lives with greater openness & non-judgement. I work with individuals and couples/intimate relationships impacted by trauma, relationship issues, chronic illness, grief, & identity exploration. Using a caring and direct approach, I support clients to gain deeper understanding, increase emotional regulation, & use more effective conflict management strategies. I believe that our world often makes it seem like we need to be fixed when really we need trust, connection, and tools to cultivate desired change within ourselves and our relationships.
