We specialize in supporting
women's mental health
Our program specializes in supporting women’s overall mental health. Teaching her tools to overcome addiction, depression, anxiety and trauma are paramount here. Couples counseling, family therapy and DUI programming are services offered that are specific to women’s needs. We understand that we need to support women in their relationships, hence, the importance of couples therapy and/or family therapy. We want to engage the system which may be integral in helping the woman live her best life. Our gender specific approach is personalized, coming from a trauma informed place, and nurturing. We aim to provide quality programming by using evidence based tools, keeping our groups small and personable, and creating a soothing and positive environment.
Ultimately we want women not to feel judged as they may already be feeling shame around their addiction, or their DUI, or any other struggles. Hence, every woman we see is treated with respect and care. We work both with women who are in Colorado and other states, court ordered (DUI, parenting classes, anger management) and women who do not have legal consequences yet they are motivated to learn new skills and overcome obstacles that may be creating an addiction or mental health struggles. Take the first step by calling for an appointment, you will be pleased.

Abuse Trauma
Research tells us that trauma is often a precursor to mental illnesses such as anxiety and/or depression. Moreover, those who have survived traumatic experiences such as rape, violence, abuse, life threatening accidents, war, and other circumstances need to be addressed in therapy. Since trauma survivors manifest symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and substance abuse, we work from a trauma sensitive, trauma informed model.
Addictions
Addictions are more common than ever. From smartphones to social networking to shopping and alcohol and drugs (legal and illegal drugs such as prescription medications) and food, one's addiction is just a symptom of something else. The maladaptive behaviors listed above are all reactions to root issues such as trauma, abuse, grief, loneliness/isolation, lack of meaning, depression, anxiety disorders and anger.
Convenience & Quality
One aspect to the Covid 19 Pandemic was that telehealth is just as effective as in person therapy. Whether you work long hours or live in a rural area or busy with children, these are all reasons to meet via video. Get professional help at your convenience in a truly confidential manner. No running into people you know in the lobby, no driving in traffic, just ease and comfort with a licensed and experienced clinician.
Couples Therapy
Marriage counseling and healthy intimacy education. Couples therapy is tailored to each unique couple's needs. Typical issues addressed include: dynamics of blended families (second marriages learning how to navigate step children), trust issues, addictions of all kinds (alcohol, drugs, shopping, video gaming, pornography, social networking), clarifying needs and goals, and intimacy issues. This is a safe place where couples can learn new healthy relationship skills in order to save their partnership.

Family Therapy
Our environment plays a significant role in our overall health which means our mental health and how we chose to cope with life stressors and/or triggers. How a family dances around that home environment is a critical piece of recovery and change. Therefore, family therapy and/or couples therapy is an integral force when one needs to better their life. Improving ones life is equal to improving ones family dynamics. We approach the family in a way that improves communication, builds trust and leads to a nurturing environment where everyone can grow and thrive.
