Does he world feel like it has gotten a little overwhelming, or even a little nutty? You don't have to navigate it alone, therapy can be a place to slow things down, talk it through and. build practical skills to help you navigate with more clarity and confidence.
My work focuses on a variety of issues: addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, and gender identity, just to name a few. I create a space where you can explore these challenges and work toward meaningful change.
I take a fresh, integrative approach to individualized psychotherapy, tailoring treatment to each client's unique needs and goals. My work is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps clients better understand and regulate their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and reactions.
I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), helping clients develop greater acceptance of difficult emotions and circumstances that may be outside of their control while taking meaningful action aligned with their personal values. With seven years of experience as both a Group Facilitator and Individual Therapist in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I utilize evidence-based skills and mindfulness practices to help clients improve emotional regulation, increase self-awareness, and build resilience.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Denver, CO
Finding addiction therapists in Denver starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, prescription substance concerns, gambling, or other behavioral patterns. As you compare therapists, look for experience with approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, and coordination with medication support when needed. Some people also work with a prescriber as part of their care team.
Denver has many therapists across neighborhoods like Capitol Hill, Cherry Creek, LoDo, and surrounding areas, which can make the search easier to start and harder to narrow. Consider whether you prefer an in-person office you can reach by car, transit, or walking, or a virtual appointment that fits your schedule. Recovery can involve changes over time, so it helps to look for a therapist who describes a nonjudgmental approach and experience with harm reduction or substance use care. Reading therapist bios can show how they talk about addiction, what session structure may look like, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Denver can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care starts. Headway helps you find many therapists who accept insurance, are accepting new patients, and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
