Therapists in Colorado

My goal as a therapist is to create a warm, safe space where you or your child can be yourself, express emotions freely, and begin to heal. You’ve already taken an important first step by recognizing your needs and seeking support—therapy is a journey of courage and growth, and I’m honored to walk alongside you in it. With nearly four decades of experience in mental health and early childhood development/education, I bring a deep understanding of both emotional and developmental needs across all ages and developmental levels. I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Registered Play Therapist with extensive training in EMDR and certification in the Nurturing Parenting Program. My approach is compassionate, grounded, and tailored to each client’s unique goals. Outside of the therapy room, I recharge through hiking, gardening, photography, and cooking—all ways I stay mindful and connected to what matters most.

Melissa has over 20 years of experience helping intelligent, high-functioning women navigate anxiety, depression, and repeating relationship patterns — especially when their marriage or closest relationships feel confusing, unsatisfying, or heavy. Many clients arrive exhausted from carrying the emotional weight in their relationships, unsure why they keep finding the same dynamics or blaming themselves. Melissa specializes in relational trauma and emotional regulation, helping clients gain clarity about what’s really driving their distress. Rather than just treating symptoms, she helps you understand and shift long-standing patterns rooted in early family dynamics so you can make steadier, more grounded decisions in life and relationships. Her approach is warm, direct, and insight-oriented. Clients often move from burnout and self-blame toward clearer thinking, steadier emotional responses, and greater confidence in themselves and their relationships. Telehealth sessions are available Tuesday–Friday, and Melissa can typically schedule new clients within one week.

Hi, I’m Connor, an LCSW with a certificate in Human–Animal–Environment Interactions (HAEI). I believe therapy should feel like a collaborative and supportive space where you can show up exactly as you are. My work combines evidence-based approaches with experiential therapies, including equine- and canine-assisted interventions, to help clients build insight, develop practical coping skills, and reconnect with their strengths. I aim to create a space that feels safe, genuine, and even a little bit of relief in the middle of life’s challenges.

I’m a licensed therapist with over 18 years of experience helping adults navigate burnout, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I work with high-functioning individuals who often appear to have it together on the outside but feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck beneath the surface. Many of my clients are used to pushing through, taking care of others, and managing everything on their own—until it stops working. They come to me looking for more than just coping strategies. They want to understand what’s driving their patterns and experience real, lasting change. My approach integrates EMDR, parts work, and nervous system-focused therapy to help you move beyond surface-level solutions. Together, we work to reduce overwhelm, process unresolved experiences, and shift the patterns that keep you feeling stuck. The impact of this work is more than symptom relief. Clients often begin to feel calmer, more grounded, and clearer in their decisions. They develop a stronger sense of self, improved boundaries, and a greater ability to navigate stress without becoming overwhelmed. My goal is to create a space where you feel supported, understood, and able to make meaningful progress at a pace that feels right for you. You don’t have to keep doing this alone—change is possible, and it can feel more sustainable than you might expect.

If this sounds like you, I am here to help you process emotions, loosen conditioned beliefs and habitual patterns, and work toward a more kind, accepting relationship with yourself. As a contemplative psychotherapist, my approach rests on helping you reconnect with your brilliant sanity—or human beings' intrinsic nature of goodness and wisdom that we all lose touch with. Through our work together, I will support you to uncover your wisdom, intuition, and innate capacities for clarity, self-acceptance and self-compassion, and healing. Being human is hard, and just by being the human that you are, you are deserving of your own kindness, love, and care. It would be an honor to walk alongside you on your path toward whatever your heart yearns for most.

Hi, I'm Emily and I've been practicing as a therapist for the last seven years. I began my own healing work when the coping strategies I relied on - and the mask I wore to get through life - finally stopped working. Under all the pain was a desire to live more honestly and deeply, and its what eventually led me to become a therapist. This is the kind of space I now intend to hold for others.

I'm a clinical social worker by profession. I've worked in all aspects of my field from running a statewide program to working in hospitals, federal EAPs, to community clinics and private practice.

We are living in challenging times. I want those clients to know I hear them and I see them.

Additionally, I work with individuals with mental health disorders, creating a safe space for healing and using evidence-based treatments. Beyond individual therapy, I actively engage in community outreach programs to raise awareness about mental health and addiction. My aim is to provide compassionate care and a healing space for individuals seeking support.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, birth doula, yoga teacher, and professor with a passion for walking alongside people through life’s most complex seasons. My work is rooted in compassion, evidence-based practice, and a belief that healing involves the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. In my practice, I specialize in reproductive and perinatal mental health, trauma recovery, and supporting individuals and couples navigating infertility, pregnancy, postpartum, loss, and life transitions. I also work with clients facing chronic illness and the lingering impact of stress and anxiety. My integrative approach may include traditional talk therapy, mindfulness, yoga-based techniques, and psychoeducation, tailored to fit your unique needs and goals. Clients often describe me as calm, supportive, and practical. I believe therapy should feel like a safe place where you don’t have to “have it all together.” Instead, you’ll find space to process honestly, learn effective tools, and build resilience. Whether you are seeking short-term support or long-term healing, we’ll work together at your pace to create meaningful change. Beyond the therapy room, I teach and mentor future social workers, which keeps me grounded in both current research and real-world practice. My experience as a doula and yoga teacher allows me to bring a holistic, nurturing lens to therapy that honors your strengths while addressing challenges. Above all, I want you to know: you don’t have to walk this path alone. Healing is possible, and I would be honored to support you in finding your way forward.
