Having an impactful counseling experience is important to you. You're looking for someone who is understanding, knowledgeable, and experienced. For over 32 years, I have dedicated myself to honing my ability to provide you a counseling experience that is empowering and successful. I aim at collaboration and transparency in working with families, couples and individuals. To accomplish this, I ask clients for feedback at the end of each session, and I actively talk with those whom I serve about any changes they feel need to be made to improve their client experience.

Trauma and stress shape the way we relate to ourselves, others, and the world, creating patterns of protection that hold us back from living the lives we long for. I see therapy as a collaborative exploration that nurtures connection, invites curiosity, and ultimately leads to inner and outer harmony. I believe the foundation of any healing process is a safe and authentic relationship where all parts of you feel seen and heard. This dynamic fosters the shared connection needed to tune in to difficult emotions and sensations at the right pace for your system and reshape the way you connect with yourself, others, and the world.

Many of us carry the idea that happiness is about being content, cheerful, carrying a smile on one's face all the time. Rather, I like to think of well-being as a balance in one's "emotional ecosystem," or variety of different emotions we allow ourselves to experience.I believe that our emotional flexibility to experience a full range of emotions (positive, negative, & a mix of both) is strongly linked to our feelings of happiness & well-being. No, I don't believe there's anything wrong with you. Perhaps all you need rightnow are tools to help you embrace the full range of your human experience while "surfing" those emotional waves.

AYCMARC, (We are open when everyone else is closed) asks you this question: true or false. The only person you can change is your self (surprise! answer). Hi my name is Mark M Miller. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) and the founder of at Your Convenience Mental Health and Relationship Counseling of Denver (AYCMARC). The answer to the question is false. Psychology and systems theory show us that any change in the system (family, group or society) changes the system. Therefore a more truthful axiom is the only person you can willingly change is yourself.

Negative experiences shape how we think about ourselves, but they don't have to define us forever. We can learn new ways of relating to ourselves and the people around us via a variety of therapeutic modalities. With a therapist who can hold space for you with compassion and wisdom, you can overcome obstacles and cultivate resilient wellbeing. I might be helpful to you if: You know what it is like to feel held back from life, but don’t know how to engage; You crave connection and community, but feel uncomfortable reaching out to others; You feel disconnected from your body – you may not recognize there is a disconnect.

A strong therapeutic relationship is the cornerstone of healing and growth. My passion lies in creating a safe, positive space where adolescents can openly share their thoughts and feelings, learn to navigate life's challenges, and develop resilience. I understand that the current climate, with its social distancing and remote learning, has taken a toll on many young people, leading to increased anxiety, depression, and even substance use. These struggles often ripple through the entire family, creating stress and disconnection. That's why I offer both individual therapy for adolescents and coaching sessions for parents.

Thank you for viewing my profile. I have 3 graduate degrees, all in mental/behavioral health, licenses in Co. and CA., and I am comfortable in working with a vast array of issues. I have worked in several mental health settings throughout my career, including: community mental health, hospitals, dialysis centers and private practice. My theory basis is psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral, but I always work with the patient in their comfort level and style. I strongly feel that therapeutic success comes from my ability to help others help themselves. I look forward to potentially working with you. Dr. Jacks

My goal is to help indiviudals and their families make connections between difficult behaviors and their underlying causes, and to find interventions that work well for the family. I believe that assessing and identifying strengths in both the client and the family is just as important as identifying the problems.

My role as a therapist is to help my clients peel back the layers of what is occurring in their life and help them work towards achieving their goals. Counseling helps us understand more effective ways to communicate, how to relate to the world around us, and how to give life a sense of meaning. It helps us identify areas that may be holding us back from our best self. I would like to learn more about how we can work through life's challenges together.

Life leads to many instances where we feel overwhelmed, depleted, and in need of support. Maybe it is a life transition such as starting a new job, parenting, dealing with illness or the loss of a loved one, having an experience that left you scared or, perhaps something else. As people, we have the ability to heal, grow and transform our lives. Many times the path of healing feels stressful and is easier with the support of a counselor. Despite what our society often tells us; we do not have to bear this weight on our own and I am happy to help.
