Hi there, I'm Jim Thompson and I have 6+ years of experience working with adults moving through life's transitions, including anxiety/depression that can come with it.
Whether a career change, a shift in an important relationship, a season where the old ways of doing things just don't fit or work anymore - I help people navigate those changes, along with the bigger questions about meaning and direction that tend to come with them.
My style is warm, thoughtful, and unhurried. I'll meet you where you are. If you're looking for a steady presence while you sort out what's next, I'd be glad to walk alongside you.
I believe healing happens when we no longer carry our stories alone. I strive to create a space where you're celebrated and understood exactly as you are now. Together, we'll deconstruct stories shaped by shame to create narratives rooted in agency, authenticity and self-compassion.
As a queer, non-binary, non-monogamous therapist with lived experience of trauma, I specialize in working with queer, transgender, and non-monogamous adults (18+) navigating complex trauma (CPTSD), identity formation, depression, anxiety and neurodivergence.
Do you ever feel unseen, unheard, or like you carried responsibilities no child should have had to? If that resonates, you are not alone. I work with adults and couples who grew up with an emotionally immature parent and still feel the effects on their relationships, self worth, and sense of self. Together we will explore these dynamics and how they shape your life today, and I will help you build the insight, confidence, and self trust to move forward. I also support people through anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, life transitions, and the relationship struggles that come with all of it.
As both a mental health and addiction professional, I bring a compassionate and holistic perspective to my work with clients. I understand that each person’s experiences are unique, and I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel comfortable exploring challenges, building on their strengths, and working toward meaningful change.
My educational background reflects my commitment to understanding the connection between mental health, trauma, and overall well-being. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Health Promotion with a minor in Psychology from Colorado State University–Pueblo, followed by a Master of Social Work with a concentration in Mental Health and Trauma from the University of Denver.
I have been a licensed clinical social worker since 2019. I went to graduate school at Colorado State University and studied Social Work. I have years of experience in higher level care settings as a clinical leader, as well as a background in adolescent residential treatment and corrections. I am trained in EMDR and CPT, as well as CBT, DBT, ACT, and Motivational Interviewing. I specialize in working with people who have experienced trauma, mood and anxiety disorders, personality disorders, adolescents and young adults, and people going through major life transitions.
My primary focus is working with adolescents, families, and adults, though I have a range of experience working with people of all ages and many different demographics. In particular, I have a strong background in working with at-risk youth, kinship caregivers, and foster/adoptive families. I also have a background of working with young adults transitioning to independent living, as well as adults of all ages.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Colorado, and have been practicing as a therapist since 2022. Prior to this, I worked with youth, adults, and families in a variety of case management roles, including in schools, domestic violence shelters, shelters for those without housing, and families experiencing various systems involvement. This has given me an understanding of the many challenges life can bring, and equipped me with the tools to support you in navigating various barriers and difficulties.
Hi, I'm Chelsea. I have worked for 6 years with teens and young adults as they navigate life. I am experienced in CBT, DBT and Existential approaches. I also have a faith background and work with people who are neuro-divergent. I am passionate about women's health and wellness as well as supporting the LGBTQ population. I specialize in anxiety, depression, ADHD and life transitions.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy, and I'm deeply passionate about supporting women through life’s major transitions- especially perimenopause and menopause.
Perimenopause is a common experience, yet so many women feel entirely unprepared for how disruptive symptoms such as mood shifts, brain fog and insomnia can be. Infertility, post-partum adjustments and parenting can also present unique challenges. My goal is to help you move through these transitions with growth, empowerment and vibrancy.
Hey, I'm Wes — and I'm glad you've landed here. I specialize in working with people (13+) and families. If you're having trouble navigating conflict, self-defeating behaviors, emptiness, numbing, anxiety, depression, lack of fulfilment or meaning, stress, anger, loneliness, relationship issues, low self-esteem, or questions of identity, I recommend you reach out. Through my practice, I've successfully helped clients move past issues that have blocked them from living fully, completely, and whole-heartedly. Like so many clients who have worked with me consistently, you too could find more joy, happiness, success, and peace in the areas of your life that matter most to you.
Hello! My name is Megan Hilton, and I am an LPC mental health counselor. I obtained my Master's in Mental Health Counseling at Northwestern University in March of 2023, where I began seeing clients and gaining experience. I specialized in child and adolescent therapy while in school and have continued working with youths between 5 - 18 years old. I attended therapy myself as a child and adolescent and feel my personal experience has allowed me to better understand my younger clients. I have also gained experience working with adults through individual, couples, and family counseling.
I am an EMDR-trained trauma therapist who specializes in working with those who have experienced religious trauma along with adult children of dysfunctional families, alcoholics, and addicts. I have a special place in my heart for working with the LGBTQIA+ community as well. With EMDR, I incorporate attachment work to soften the process.
