My name is Lydia, I’m a southern transplant living in Colorado 5 years in the making. While I love certain parts of the South, I am passionate about dismantling the restrictive thought patterns brought on by Southern culture.
Although my degree is in Mental Health Counseling, my treatment method is psychoanalysis. This means that each treatment is developed and conducted for the client in question, their specific issues and inquiries they have about their own symptom.
Psychoanalysis emphasizes on guiding individuals in finding their own resources, gaining a knowledge about what is happing to them and the cause of their distress.
It is one of my core beliefs that every person is the expert on their own life and experiences. As a therapist, I aim to be a witness to your journey and a source of feedback, clarity, and support. Through evidence-based techniques and compassionate guidance, I help clients develop coping skills, improve self-awareness, and cultivate resilience. I have a background in schools and special education, a Bachelors degree in Psychology and Master of Social Work with a concentration in Mental Health.
Do you struggle with persistent anxiety or depression? Do you have an adolescent with emotional or behavioral problems? Are you having issues with addiction? I've been assisting people in the Denver area for the past thirty years. I have worked in inpatient psychiatry and drug and alcohol rehabilitation, and I currently teach psychology and related subjects at the University of Denver. Although my clinical specialties are working with adolescents and addictive issues, I also work with individuals, couples, and families dealing with mood disorders, anger management, men's issues, and spiritual issues.
"I believe that clinical credentials are only part of the process of selecting a therapist. To that end, I offer a free fifteen-minute consultation to determine if I'm the right therapist for you."

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Aurora
Finding OCD therapists in Aurora starts with looking for training that matches the care you need. Obsessive-compulsive disorder can involve obsessive thoughts, intrusive thoughts, compulsions, avoidance, and repeated reassurance seeking. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach that some therapists use to support people living with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare options, look for therapists who list ERP, OCD, or related experience in their bios, along with experience supporting concerns that can appear alongside OCD, such as anxiety, depression, or trauma.
Aurora has a range of mental health care options, including local offices and virtual appointments across the area. Virtual care can expand your options if you want a therapist with specific OCD experience or if appointment times near your home, work, or school are limited. As you narrow your search, compare therapists by availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how clearly they describe their approach to OCD care. A bio can help you tell the difference between a therapist who lists OCD as an area of familiarity and one who names ERP or other OCD-focused training.
Therapy in Aurora can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed profiles, enter your insurance details, and see estimated costs upfront. From there, you can browse therapists, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
