Southern accent & hospitality from an authentic "GRITS" ( Girls Raised In The South). Years of dedication to practicing ethical; yet not traditional. Offering the warmth of my version of southern hospitality. To be the change you wish to see, with a eccentric flair to create a safe space energetically & physically for therapy. The place for inquiry of curiosity. Intentional for growth, healing, and sustainability. Intention for functional relationships with self and others through self confidence. The practice of self acceptance with detail to co-creating an honest therapeutic relationship, through accountably, mindfulness, compassion. A choice to self~disclose to cultivate an experience of honestly with the trust of truth. The choice to self~disclose has the potential for honesty and trust, with no hierarchy, and learning from one another. To honor & bare witness to choose a life of freedom through the awareness of non~judgment. An opportunity to connect through trauma, the release, & to let go of limited beliefs. A conversation about self-forgiveness with a mantra of: "We are lovable even when we make mistakes". 20+ years of teaching yoga, meditation, and somatic connection. LMFT (Licensed Marriage, Family, and Child Therapist), Y12SR (Yoga 12 Step Recovery), and Freedom Coach. Long-boarder, slack-liner, snowboarder, skier, stand-up paddler, single mom, care-taker, trauma survivor, pregnancy loss, divorce, addiction recovery, learning disabilities, victim of gun violence, menopause, and narcolepsy. Due to the high volume of inquires, I do not offer meet & greets. Please text 303.392.6860 for direct communication. My website, www.blairvaughn.com, offers information about myself, background, experience, and my approach to therapy. Therefore, please schedule the first session to see if we are a good fit.

Ramon Guitart

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 6.4 mi away • Denver, CO


Welcome! I’m Ramon, a Drama Therapist supporting children, adults, and families. I believe creative arts offer a deeper language when words aren’t enough. No artistic skills are needed; we simply use play and metaphor to explore challenges from a comfortable distance. Children process emotions through play, adults bypass the analytical mind for authentic expression, and families discover new ways of connecting. My approach is evidence-based and open-minded, providing a judgment-free space to explore your experiences at your own pace.

Español

¡Bienvenidos! Soy Ramón, dramaterapeuta. Acompaño a niños, adultos y familias usando las artes creativas como un lenguaje profundo cuando las palabras no bastan. No hace falta ser artista; usamos el juego y la metáfora para explorar desafíos con comodidad. Los niños procesan emociones jugando, los adultos conectan con su expresión auténtica y las familias descubren nuevas formas de vincularse. Mi enfoque se basa en la evidencia y en una mente abierta, ofreciendo un espacio sin juicios para explorar tus experiencias a tu propio ritmo.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 6.9 mi away • Wheat Ridge, CO


I have wanted to be a therapist since I was twelve years old after seeing a guru use his expertise to connect with a troubled child who had only known how to push others away. Over twenty five years later, I'm privileged enough to have found my own niche, working with individual adults address the impacts of trauma, anxiety, and depression. They have proven that the capacity to love and embrace life can be rediscovered, even for those who have lived through the unbearable.
