LGBT therapists in Denver, CO

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have been living in Colorado since 2005. I have a Master's of Science degree in Counseling with an emphasis on Marriage, Family, and Child Therapy. I specialize in working with children, teens, and young adults who have experienced trauma, struggle with anxiety and/or depression symptoms, grief, self-esteem, and relationship issues.

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.

Healing from trauma is not a straight path and you don’t have to walk it alone. I specialize in supporting people of all ages, from youth as young as 10 to older adults, in processing and healing from difficult experiences. I believe therapy works best when it’s a partnership, and I show up with authenticity, compassion, and respect for your unique journey. My approach is eclectic, drawing on a variety of evidence-based tools, with a foundation in a client-centered philosophy. I adapt each session to meet you where you are, at a pace that feels safe and manageable.

My priority is to provide a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. With over 40 years in healthcare—including service as a former Navy Nurse Corps Officer and retired military veteran—I bring values of resilience, trust, and teamwork into every therapeutic relationship. I view care as a partnership and work to empower you to take an active role in your mental health.

I provide pharmacotherapy (medication management) motivational interviewing, and other therapeutic modalities. We can assess during the first meeting if your treatment requires additional therapeutic support. I will provide a referral to a licensed therapist to ensure you receive comprehensive care. My practice supports:

I have found my own personal healing to be intimately connected to nature, and it is here that I believe that we can all begin to rediscover our intrinsic humanity and let go of those things that distract us from our higher selves. In my spare time, I work as an outdoor educator and manage my own private practice and guide Outdoor Retreats

I believe it is helpful and important to translate what is discussed in session and in telehealth meetings into lived experience and real change.

I have 26 years of experience dealing with individuals, couples, families in therapy. We will work together to develop plans that are unique and right for you.

I am a Native New Yorker, living in Colorado since the Mets won the World Series. I use my training in conjunction with my life experience in the therapy room, but it's always your therapy room.

I was born in Wyoming and raised in Colorado. I attended The University of Northern Colorado for my undergraduate degree in Psychology and then I completed my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy from Capella University.

​

I have certifications in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectal Behavioral Therapy, and Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy.

Hi, I'm Kristen Goltz, MS, LMFT — a trauma therapist in Fort Collins, CO specializing in Somatic and Attachment-Focused EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) Level 1 therapy. I work with teens (13-17) and adults (18+) in-person in Fort Collins and virtually throughout Colorado and Florida.

I came to this work not just through training, but through my own healing journey. I know what it feels like to be weighed down by the past, to understand your patterns but still feel stuck, and to wonder if real change is actually possible. It is. I've lived it.

I specialize in complex trauma, relational trauma, attachment wounds, narcissistic abuse recovery, anxiety, depression, co-parenting and divorce recovery, and ADHD. If you've done therapy before but still feel stuck in the same patterns — this work goes deeper than traditional talk therapy.

Hi, I'm Maddie! I grew up in a small town in Western New York and spent most of my early days running around outside playing in the mud. From teenage to young adulthood I struggled significantly with anxiety, GI issues, and trying to fit in with who/what I saw around me. Once I moved to Colorado, I had complete culture shock and started rethinking who I am and how I want to show up in the world. After learning strategies first hand, and attending grad school for Art Therapy, I started finding my way. Now, I'm passionate about helping others find empowerment and connection to the things that matter most to them. I'd love to work with children, teens and young adults who are questioning their identity or living with anxiety or difficult symptoms after going through trauma.

I’m a licensed therapist with master’s degrees in both Philosophy and Clinical Counseling from the University of Colorado Denver. My work is guided by values of openness, empathy, and curiosity, and I see therapy as a collaborative space for growth and self-discovery. I strive to create an environment where clients feel genuinely seen, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes. I work with adults and adolescents navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, thought disorders, and life transitions, helping them build resilience and a deeper sense of fulfillment.

I believe counseling is a collaborative process and starts in the first session as we work together to understand your concerns. My first intention for you is to feel empowered, nurtured, and strengthened by the work we do together. I will work with you to create a safe and trusting space in which you can explore challenges that have hindered your ability to take full advantage of your potential. Together we will work on resolving difficult issues to promote increased self-awareness, understanding, and connection.

We all deserve to have someone in our corner as we navigate life's ups and downs. I am passionate about supporting individuals through challenges and transitions, and celebrating progress. My background includes extensive work with adults facing a variety of systemic and personal obstacles, including those who have historically had less access to resources. I am committed to creating a welcoming, affirming space for all clients that acknowledges each individual's journey, with an intersectional and holistic approach. My priority is to ensure that you are seen, understood, and supported as you work toward your personal goals.
