Therapists for college students near Boulder, CO

My approach to therapy includes lots of feedback, reflection, challenge, and humor. If you're feeling stuck or have found therapy unsuccessful in the past, contact me. I've seen my clients transform, even when things seem hopeless to them. We will look at the positive changes you are making in your life, as well as places where you may feel challenged. I will work with you to understand your obstacles and I will help you to acquire the skills needed to overcome them.

My name is Sarah and I am a licensed clinical social worker in Colorado. I help a wide range of students who struggle with anxiety, depression, self-harm and other trauma related symptoms. I am also here to help you through the pressures and obstacles associated with school and becoming an adult. Not everything needs to be diagnosed! Sometimes, we just need someone who can help us navigate through challenges and feelings of loneliness or low self-esteem. There is no reason to feel like you need to go through this alone.

Born and raised in Denver, Colorado, the Rocky Mountains provided a beautiful backdrop to a variety of educational and professional experiences. I received my doctorate in clinical psychology from the University of Denver, where I obtained specialized training in psychological assessment, substance misuse, couples psychotherapy, and university counseling. After completing my training in New Orleans I have continued to provide mental health services for university students, individuals, and couples. I have extensive clinical experience with adolescents, emerging adults, middle age adults and over seven years of direct clinical service for undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral students. A commitment to cultural humility and anti-racism remains a central value in my clinical practice. Individuals and couples of all races, religions, nationalities, sexual orientations, gender identities, abilities and relationship identities are welcome.

It is an honor and an inspiration to witness a person’s growth. Being a part of that transformation is my passion and my life’s work. I am a transpersonal therapist, meaning that I hold a person’s emotional journey within the larger context of their overall spiritual path. Transpersonal psychotherapy is unique from traditional psychotherapy in that it views a person as a spiritual being who is having a human experience. From that perspective, the process of developing self-awareness is a remembering of the essential nature. Expanding one’s consciousness becomes a sacred unfoldment through which we begin to create ourselves and our lives intentionally. Through a delicate balance of self-love and self-honesty, we can begin to discern the persona we have created from the essence of who we are. As the ego, or personality, becomes increasingly easy to identify, we are able to recognize and resist its programming and begin taking ownership of our choices. Trying to control our external reality is exhausting and ultimately impossible, but our inner reality can be entirely of our choosing. True freedom and security is cultivated within and brings an unshakeable sense of peace to even life’s roughest waters.

I have over 7 years of experience in the mental health field, working as a behavioral health nurse at Jacobi Medical Center, Nix Hospital, Perimeter Behavioral Health, and as a consultant at King Haven Counseling Group. I am a highly skilled and compassionate Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a wealth of experience in treating a wide range of psychiatric conditions. With expertise in anxiety, depression, autism-related aggression, PTSD, insomnia, geriatrics, and various other mental health disorders, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive and personalized care to my patients, working alongside psychologists, psychiatrists, and other members of the team. I have demonstrated my proficiency in helping individuals struggling with anxiety by implementing evidence-based treatment modalities, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and medication management. Through my empathetic approach, I create a safe and supportive environment for patients to address their concerns and develop effective coping strategies. In my practice, I have successfully worked with individuals battling depression, tailoring treatment plans to meet their specific needs. Utilizing a holistic approach, I combine therapy, medication management, and lifestyle modifications to support patients on their journey to recovery. I embarked on a remarkable journey to become a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), displaying determination and a passion for mental health care. My path to this specialized field began with a bachelor's degree from Western Governors' University. After completing my MSN program, I pursued certification as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). This involved passing the rigorous national certification exam, showcasing my proficiency in diagnosing and treating psychiatric disorders.

Life as a young adult can be excited, daunting, and stressful all at the same time. I love helping college age students identify value systems, goals, and healthy habits to lead to a more hopeful and enjoyable life. Every person is different in their needs and I can help you find coping skills that will work for you to aid in decreasing stress levels, anxiety, and depression.

I strongly believe in the human capacity for healing and transformation and believe that people are strong and resilient. You may be here because you feel ready for change in your life and are looking for connection and want to move past stuck places. I am here to walk alongside you, and desire for you to walk away from therapy feeling like a more whole and healthy version of yourself. I am committed to creating a safe space for each client, whether you are feeling relationally drained, hopeless, in need of connection, or ready to process your story. Through the therapeutic process, I work with adults, couples, and adolescents to navigate relational issues, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and many other topics. I operate through the framework of Internal Family Systems (IFS), Narrative Therapy, and EFT. I want to help you be curious about your internal world and the experiences that have impacted you. Life can be extremely painful, but you do not have to navigate it alone! Please contact me for a free consultation and begin your journey towards healing!

I work with non-linear thinkers who are searching for a therapist with intuitive wisdom who cherishes the divergent path. I specializes in connecting with ADHDers who have always felt different even if others couldn't tell. My clients are notoriously curious and adept improvisors, who are playfully creative, but they still feel perpetually out-of-sync with the world around them. They charm others with their insight and levity, and save the biting criticisms for themselves. So they end up feeling like anxious imposters, waiting to be exposed. Acquiescing to others has helped you get by without too many catastrophes, but deep down you can't keep convincing yourself that you're okay with just getting by. There's a deeper itch that's beckoning you into an alternative way of being. Yes, still different, but personal, integrated, aligned with your soul. I approach therapy as the life-changing work that it is, and while there's a serious commitment to exploring one's psyche, it doesn't mean you or I are required to take ourselves too seriously. Excavating one's own lived experience and the difficulty of navigating a world not built for you is not for the faint of heart, yet we continue to be curious, adapt, and play. I am intentional in creating and holding space for clients to find and share a more authentic version of themselves. Clients are well-met when they bring curiosity about their distinct approach to life, courage to speak what has been left unsaid, and compassion to nurture a deeper truth about themselves.

You worry about everything- literally everything. You toss and turn at night, waking up exhausted, and unprepared to start the day. It is like you are on auto pilot- just going through the motions. You are constantly in your head, unable to enjoy the present, and time with friends. You feel anxious and on edge most of the time, you wish you could just relax. Others see you as someone who has it all together, without a care in the world- how little they know. Let’s face it, you hide the worry and anxiety well. But lately, it has been getting harder to manage. The anxiety you continuously try to bury, is creeping its way up, and you are feeling overwhelmed. You have been contemplating therapy for so long, not sure if it will even help. But you’re ready now, you know things need to change, and you can’t go through life like this much longer. Now imagine... Imagine being able to finally be present in your everyday life, and actually enjoy your time with family and friends. Imagine finally being able to relax and sleep. Imagine waking up energized and ready to start the day. You’re ready to take the driver’s seat, and no longer allow anxiety and worry to take control. And I can help. I am trained in EMDR and DBT and specialize in helping people like you who struggle with excessive worry. I am a Christian and offer faith-based counseling for those seeking it. However, I work with people no matter their religious affiliation or lack of one. I provide only online counseling. It is time to cross off “find a therapist” from your to-do list. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi there! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over five years of experience supporting adolescents and young adults with life stressors and mental health challenges. I believe that every person has the ability to grow, heal, and build resilience, and feel that it is a true honor to partner with individuals in this process. My clinical expertise includes supporting individuals with a variety of challenges such as: anxiety, depression, relationship issues, low self-esteem, college adjustment, family conflict, stress, and perfectionism. My approach is strengths-based, trauma informed, and relationship focused. My goal is to provide you with a safe space and relationship in which you can process and experience growth and change. I empower my clients to recognize their own resilience and unique strengths while also working collaboratively to equip clients with new tools. I hope to connect with you and provide you with support as you navigate your college journey!

Do you find yourself over-working in your job or school and under-connecting in relationships? Escaping via addiction while struggling with emotional pain, fear, loneliness, or shame? Maybe you just know something is wrong but aren’t even sure what to call it. If this sounds familiar, I can help. There are a lot of conflicting expectations out there for who men “should be.” Some say you should be tough and ambitious, while others say you should be empathetic and sensitive. I have experienced this myself and understand how difficult it can be to sort through it and make sense of it all. I became a therapist to help men become healthier individuals with healthier relationships–to help men move past trauma, addiction, and shame. I know how confusing and painful this can be, and I can tell you from personal experience that there is hope and a better way. My counseling style is to work with you collaboratively to help you identify false beliefs, process the pain and shame that formed these beliefs, and move forward with healthier mindsets, behaviors, and relationships. I utilize a down-to-earth, practical approach to help you identify what you are already doing that might be working well, what might not be so helpful, and to learn skills for better emotional management, communication, boundary setting and more. At the same time, we will also roll up our sleeves and work to heal the deeper emotional wounds from your past. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a Licensed Addictions Counselor, and am trained in EMDR. This specific combination of professional training and licensure in mental health, addictions, and trauma has prepared me to help men who often struggle with various combinations of these issues. When looking for a therapist, it is important to choose someone with the expertise to speak into these areas and the complex interactions between them. I also have a background in Christian missions and Bible teaching and incorporate this to whatever extent you desire. Together we can get you there. I have a rare combination of characteristics and training that make me uniquely well-suited to help men along their journey towards growth, healing, and freedom. And that is exactly what I’d like to do for you. If any of this resonates with you, send me an email, or call me to set up an appointment and get started. Let’s get down to work.

Hey there! I'm Kat! I believe that therapy is most effective when rooted in authenticity. New to therapy? Not sure where to start? No problem. I'm all about providing mental health care that's compassionate and free of judgment – it doesn't matter your age, gender, identity, ethnicity, relationship style, or culture; I'm here to help. I am EMDR trained and a NASW-trained ally in care as an LGTBQ+ affirming provider. I have experience helping folks with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, PTSD, navigating life changes and transitions, and providing support to LGBTQIA+ clients.

Hi my name is Laura, I am a therapist located in Colorado. I see clients in Illinois and Colorado. I help people feeling overwhelmed, unhappy and unsure about situations in their life. I love working with College students. College can be such an exciting time for some, and for others it can be very confusing and stressful.

As a bilingual licensed clinical psychologist with over a decade of experience in medical and community-based settings, I have supported people coping with chronic medical conditions, depression, anxiety, academic and learning concerns, trauma, and neurodivergence. Having lived, traveled, and worked in a diversity of regions throughout my early adulthood and career, I have built strong relationships with people from all walks of life. These experiences have informed my perspective and values as a professional and a human. Are you looking for shorter term support in addressing a particular relationship or stressor? Perhaps you are feeling stuck in anxiety or low energy and need a gentle nudge to “get moving” on something. Or maybe you view therapy as a more gradual, exploratory process. I view you as the expert on your life experiences and needs, and myself as a non-judgmental adviser and holder of hope on your healing journey. I approach each session with curiosity, realness, and humility. My therapeutic interventions are rooted in cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and attachment theories and I value and support the exploration of intersecting identities and the impact of systemic bias, racism, and privilege on mental, interpersonal, and community wellbeing. Regardless of our focus, I am committed to providing a safe and supportive space as we face life's challenges together, and my hope is that you will leave each session feeling both challenged and nurtured.
