My name is Savra Frounfelker and I am as eclectic as my background and experience. I have lived with a passion for helping people live their best lives. I have lived all over the United States, from California, Nevada, Oregon, Buffalo and now Colorado. My work has led me first as a case manager in California for people with intellectual disabilities. From there I went on to study to be a Master in Social Work from the California State University in Sacramento and then achieved my PhD from University at Buffalo.

Do you feel stuck, like you’re not living the life you want, or unable to fully be you? Do you feel like something in the past or even something inside you is getting in the way? Do you feel like you’re in the dark searching for light, for hope, but are unable to see or find it? Since 2008, I’ve worked with numerous individuals to help them connect to themselves, to heal, to reach the life they desire, to feel authentic and whole. But most importantly, I’ve helped people find hope, a light, a reason to engage and fully participate in this life.

I have a passion for working with clients who are ready to heal intergenerational patterns that are no longer serving them. Clients come to me when they are struggling to reconnect with the authentic version of themselves and/or want to heal from relational wounds and deepen their connection with others. It can be hard to exist authentically in the world due to trauma, societal, and systemic concerns. We are taught in Individualistic and Westernized culture that independence reigns over connection; but, we did not arrive in this world as solo travelers. We were never meant to journey through this life alone.

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 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.

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.

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.

My approach is to help people recover from anxiety, trauma, PTSD, depression, grief and loss, eating disorders, adoption issues, perfectionism, difficult family relationship dynamics and feeling "not enough" no matter how hard you try. I know that taking the first step is big, and you've probably already been working really hard to manage things yourself. Let's work together in a productive way and get your life going in the direction that you want. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation to discuss what you need.

With over three decades as a mental health practitioner and clinical leader, I specialize in delivering comprehensive patient care by combining medical knowledge with behavioral health expertise.  This means understanding how physical health impacts mental well-being and vice versa. It also means addressing how chronic illness affects mental health or how anxiety can manifest physically. Drawing from decades of experience, we will work to customize treatment plans to suit individual needs whether related to trauma, mental health disorders or chronic conditions.
