Men's Issues Therapists in Glendale, CO

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…

The fact that you are reading this likely means that you or someone you care about is going through a difficult time. You want a way out but may be confused about what that looks like-or if it is even possible. You want to be able to trust that your investment in time, money, and energy will result in a tangible benefit. You want to see more connection, peace, understanding, and joy in your life.

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.

When we are struggling with emotional issues, relationship distress or transitions in our lives we often need to work through these to gain insight, relief, emotional growth and healing. My approach to treating individuals is informed by my training in ACT, CBT, DBT, IFS, Schema Therapy and Interpersonal Neurobiology. My approach to treating couples is informed by my training in PACT II, Gottman Method I, EFT and EFFT.
