Depression Therapists in Glendale, CO

Do you ever feel haunted by your past or that depression and anxiety are holding you back from the life that you want? Or want to be happier, improve relationships, feel good about who you are, your parenting, or heal from past trauma? Our work together will help you flourish into a place of clarity and profound healing. The life that you want is not as far away as it seems. My clients say they feel deeply seen and heard and feel better than they ever thought possible. Therapy can be truly transformative with powerful techniques such as EMDR, IFS, and somatic therapy. Let's start that journey towards joy together.

Are you grappling with depression, anxiety or the aftermath of a traumatic experience? It’s normal to feel overwhelmed, alone, and uncertain about finding relief. But you don’t have to face this journey alone.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and have been practicing social work and psychotherapy since 2003. I am qualified, experienced and dedicated to helping you achieve emotional peace and happiness. I will gear our sessions together towards your goal(s) in therapy. No problem is too big or too small. I work with a variety of individuals and strive to assist you in attaining your best sense of self. My specialties include mood disorders, forensic social work and clinical supervision. Give me a call today! I look forward to hearing from you.

Therapy can help everyone, not just those with a "diagnosis." In everyday life, challenges are thrown at us that we can't always work out on our own. I help people process these challenges as they occur. Death of a loved one, relationship issues, work stressors, life transitions, etc - can be upsetting, distracting and decrease overall happiness and quality of life. Evidence has shown that people who have an unbiased, safe space to process these events move through them more quickly, gain clarity, improve productivity and ultimately thrive in their lives.

Do you feel a loss of identity, purpose, sense of self, or interest in life? Are you dissatisfied with your goals, your job, or your relationships? Do you struggle with sadness, anxiety, disturbing thoughts, hallucinations, or self destructive behavior? Have you experienced a trauma that has shattered your sense of the world? Just like physical pain indicates that something may be wrong with our bodies, psychological problems tell us that we are suffering on a deep, emotional level. Anxiety, depression, relationship problems, and other symptoms are signs that we are experiencing psychological pain for an underlying reason.

My practice welcomes clients looking to explore life issues and challenges, as well as existing strengths and assets, in a supportive & safe environment. Developing trust and building a positive relationship serves as a starting point; I then help my clients increase their capacity to ask themselves questions, challenge previous assumptions and patterns, understand their family/social environment and try out new thoughts and actions. Together, we walk the path of progress and change, taking steps towards becoming the best possible version of ourselves, as often as we can. Call or email me to learn more about getting started!

Therapy is your opportunity to discover and uncover the best things about yourself, while facing the things that might be getting in the way. I’d like to think of myself as your guide through self-compassion, acceptance, and a better relationship with yourself and your body. I support individuals and their families who feel suffocated by their inner critic, anxiety, overwhelm, poor body image, depression, doubt, and fear. Through the use of IFS, ACT, CBT, DBT, and deep self-compassion work, I support adolescents and young adults in becoming their truest, most authentic selves.

As parents, often face several pain points when considering therapy for their child, such as concerns about stigma, fear of labeling, uncertainty about the therapeutic process, and worries about the child's comfort and willingness to participate. At Creative Counseling in Colorado, we address these concerns by providing a warm, non-judgmental environment where children feel safe and understood. We use a personalized approach, incorporating play, art, and other creative therapies to make sessions engaging and non-intimidating.

Sometimes we get stuck...in patterns that don't serve us, relationships that don't feel fulfilling, or even stuck with unhelpful thoughts. If you are dealing with anxiety, depression, unresolved trauma, challenges in relationships or life transitions, it can feel difficult to imagine relief. We all have within us the innate capacity to heal from difficult experiences and we deserve to be seen and cared for as our authentic selves. Deciding to explore ways to shift our story and opening up to the possibility of feeling less burdened, is a remarkable step!

We often pressure ourselves to be our best for our family, partner(s), community, and work space. When our best fails to hold up, we wonder where did we go wrong? What more can we do? Despite all the intense effort, we still come up short. And when we have no idea how to begin turning things around, the darkness, inadequacy, and sense of feeling lost within ourselves can dramatically increases. What once felt manageable is now out of control, and places we once found strength, comfort, and resilience become sources of doubt, depression, and anxiety…

Our clients struggle with regulating emotions, distress tolerance, core emptiness (confusion about oneself), as well as interpersonal conflict with frequent emotional chaos.

Our approach is also effective in treating depression, self-injury, anxiety - focusing on coping skills. We are comprised of 4 licensed clinicians offering both individual, couple and group therapy.

The issues which I enjoy working with the most are those related to relationships and family dynamics. One of the areas of most interest to me is working with individuals who are coming out of a relationship with a partner who had narcissistic personality traits. I became licensed as a marriage and family therapist in 1998 and have worked as a family therapist in substance abuse treatment programs, residential treatment programs for children and adolescents, and residential treatment programs for women. I also work with many individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and trauma.

I view psychotherapy as a process of exploration and affirmation of one's life path, including the experiences and wisdom gained along this journey. This is just the beginning point for the psychotherapeutic process of healing and identifying one's pathway to continue the journey of personal growth, transformation and achieving balance (mind, body & Spirit). I see my role as a therapist as that of a witness and source of support and knowledge, joining with you to help facilitate the individual process of developing a deeper sense of self-awareness, achieving personal growth and transformation: to create the life you want.

I commonly help people with depression, anxiety, grief/loss and health related concerns (chronic illness, cancer, adjustment to diagnosis). High functioning clients focus on stress management, work/life balance, life transitions (adjustment to college, graduation, career changes or retirement) and relationship concerns. I help women to thrive through pregnancy and adjustment to new baby. Women seek my support when planning for pregnancy, facing fertility issues, or making decisions regarding genetic anomalies. I also specialize in miscarriage, infant loss & grief, perinatal mood disorders, and adjustment to new baby.
