I am Betty Steer, a dual board-certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC) and a graduate of the University of Nebraska Medical Center. My mission is to change the conversation around mental health. Beyond my clinical practice, I am an active advocate for mental health. Choosing to prioritize your mental wellness is an act of strength. Whether you are seeking support for yourself or your child, you deserve a provider who treats you as a whole person, not just a diagnosis. I am currently welcoming new patients. You’ve carried this weight alone long enough—call or email me today to take the first step toward reclaiming your stability and joy
I specialize in helping clients reconnect with the power that’s already within them. You’re in the driver’s seat, and I’m the passenger here to support, guide, and travel alongside you. With a trauma-informed and person-centered approach, I work with adults of all ages on challenges like anxiety, depression, and complex trauma. As a clinician who identifies as LGBTQIA+, I also aim to be a supportive and empowering presence for those navigating identity, belonging, and self-trust.
I see my job as helping folks examine why we beat ourselves and others up emotionally, and how to do something different. Together, we’ll work on figuring out what matters most to you and navigating toward it. If you value straight-forwardness, humor, geeky metaphors, and having someone sit with you in the discomfort, we are probably a good match.
Hi and thanks for checking out my profile! I specialize in working with couples and individuals experiencing relationship issues. I also provide Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy. My education is in clinical mental health and I have a wide range of clinical experience. I focus on the emotional connection between couples and helping individuals build thriving relationships with themselves and others!
I enjoy working with clients ages 16+, but most of my clients are 25-50. My clients come from a variety of backgrounds and careers such as educators, engineers, nurses, students, stay at home parents and those between careers.
I was born and raised in Cincinnati, OH and hold a Master degree from Xavier University. You can expect a safe and comfortable environment as we dialogue to help you sort through emotions. We may delve into your past but we won't dwell there because your energy is needed in the present moment as you look within yourself to find peace and the power to be your true self.
PLEASE NOTE: I am licensed in CO/FL/TX but accept insurance only in CO/FL/TX. Self pay option is available at $95 for in person sessions and $60 for tele-health.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Aurora
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Aurora starts with looking for identity-affirming care that fits your needs. Affirmative therapy, WPATH training, and experience with gender-diverse clients can be helpful signals in a therapist’s profile. You may also want support with identity exploration, coming out, relationship concerns, family stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma. Look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience reflect the kind of care you want.
Aurora has a meaningful network of mental health therapists, but LGBTQIA+-affirming options may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your choices, especially if you want a queer-affirming therapist who is accepting new patients and fits your availability. As you compare therapists, review whether they offer in-person or virtual sessions, free phone consultations, and scheduling times that work for you. Reading bios can also help you see whether a therapist explicitly mentions LGBTQIA+ populations, gender-affirming care, queer counseling, or a communication style that feels like a good match.
Therapy in Aurora can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket expense before you book. Headway helps you search for LGBTQIA+ therapists in Aurora who are accepting new patients, review detailed profiles, check insurance coverage, and see estimated costs upfront, so you can compare options and book directly when you’re ready.
