Relationship Issues Therapists in Denver, CO

I am a caring and compassionate mental health clinician that offers a variety of services for those in need. I specialize in working with adults, couples and adolescents, although I do have a lot of experience working with children as well. My approach is one of information gathering to get a true understanding of the problem and then one of collaboration with the client in order to determine the best treatment or treatment options moving forward. Mental Health issues can be complicated and I am dedicated to finding what is making things so difficult and offering good ways to solve the problems.

I specialize in relationship issues, including codependency. I can help you break old relationship patterns, attract a healthy partner, and bring your best self to a new relationship. There is often underlying attachment trauma with codependency. I address this using a somatic (body)-based psychotherapy that heals these wounds at the deepest level. I am trained in Hakomi and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. My ideal client is someone who is ready to change, is self-aware and self-reflective - someone who is committed to their own growth and development, and willing to put in the time and energy it takes to create a life they love.

Therapy provides a unique opportunity to know ourselves on a deeper level. Developing such insight, I have found, allows us to better realize our potential and more clearly see how to overcome our struggles. Whatever your specific struggle — a difficult relationship, feelings of anxiety, depression, or self-doubt — things can get better, and the right therapeutic relationship can help.

Accepting NEW clients at our new Highlands Location - 8/1/2024. Each of us learns how to cope and develops patterns of relating to others based on our life experiences. Simply put, we do what we know, what we’ve been taught, or what has been modeled for us. If you’re reading this, chances are something isn’t working and you might be feeling restless, hopeless, angry, or some other combination of feelings. And you aren’t alone. I will help you sort through those old patterns to understand them while also developing new skills to address your feelings and problems using a relaxed, nonjudgmental and mindfulness-based approach.

I strive to give each patient the experience of being clearly seen and deeply understood. This occurs through interactive inquiry into the unique life experiences of each person. As we explore the sources of anxiety and distress that typically bring someone in to see me, trust develops and becomes the foundation for continued growth. Gradually, suffering diminishes, and there is an increase in self understanding and personal freedom. My hope is for each patient to live fully in the present with a strong sense of self, and with the capacity to have relationships that are rich and deeply satisfying. .

You are unlike any other being that exists. You are a creative force. You go against the grain and it might feel like you don't fit in. Society has tried to box you in for so long that you've pushed away and hidden little parts of your soul. You may have numbed your feelings and ignored your heart's desires as a trade for comfort, stability, acceptance, and normalcy. I understand, because I've been there too, but this is what I know for sure. Our soul is crying out for true freedom.
