You might look like you have it together from the outside: steady job, functioning relationships, managing the day to day. But inside you're running on fumes, and you're tired of just pushing through. I work with young adults, college students, and adults navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, and the frustration of feeling stuck without knowing why. I'm also an Army veteran, and I bring firsthand experience of what pressure, resilience, and major transitions actually demand. If faith is part of how you make sense of life, it's welcome here. If it's not, that's fine too. Clients often tell me I'm surprisingly easy to talk to.

I'm a board-certified psychiatrist specializing in child, adolescent, and adult mental health, and I'm passionate about helping people in the most effective, personalized way I can.

I believe good care starts with connection. While strong credentials matter, what matters most to me is truly listening and understanding what you're going through — then building a plan that fits your values and your goals. Care with me might involve prescribing, deprescribing, interventional treatment, therapy, or a thoughtful combination, always tailored to what will help you most.

Sometimes the hardest part is just deciding to reach out. I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are navigating anxiety, trauma, family stress, and the weight of experiences that are hard to carry alone. I am affirming and experienced in working with LGBTQIA+ and transgender individuals, and I welcome clients across a wide range of backgrounds and life circumstances. Whether you are dealing with the effects of trauma, anxiety that has become hard to manage, or stress that has quietly built up over time, I want our work together to feel like a genuine partnership.

Pamela Fields

Pamela Fields

Therapist

Virtual • Lafayette, CO


I have been a counselor for 40 years, working with individuals, couples, families and groups with psychological as well as addiction issues. I have extensive experience in inpatient as well as outpatient settings. I am eclectic in my evaluation and treatment methods, which gives me flexibility to treat individual needs. Primarily, I use cognitive-behavioral techniques. Many of my clients suffer with depression, anger, and anxiety (panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorder); all of which impact potential addictions. I also treat couples and families to better understand their dynamics and to improve their communication skills.

My background consists of psychological testing and understanding personalities. This has helped in my work with children, adolescents, & families. I enjoy working with gay and straight couples, to help them with empathy and communication. I do extensive cognitive work as well as teaching techniques with people suffering from anxiety, anger, and addictions.

I encourage self-awareness to stimulate one's potential. Understanding oneself is essential to reducing anxiety, depression & anger (and in improving relationships). I teach relaxation, meditation, & self-hypnosis techniques to improve personal balance. I guide couples and families to improve relationships through empathy, acceptance, and communication.

My ideal clients are seeking deeper connections but feeling held back by intimacy issues, relationship patterns, anxiety, depression, or trauma. You might feel disconnected from your partner, overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts, or stuck in cycles that no longer serves you. In our work together, you don't have to hide any part of who you are. I provide a grounded, entirely non-judgmental space centered on authentic human connection. Together, we explore what is keeping you stuck and build practical, compassionate paths toward relational understanding, emotional stability, and personal healing.

Frequently asked questions

Therapy Chair

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Denver, CO

Finding OCD therapists in Denver starts with looking for training that matches obsessive-compulsive disorder care. OCD therapy may support people managing intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, avoidance, anxiety, or related stress. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is a common evidence-based approach for OCD. Since not all therapists are trained in ERP, review each therapist’s bio for specific mentions of ERP, OCD therapy, obsessive thoughts, or experience with ocd treatments for adults.

Denver has many mental health therapists across neighborhoods like Capitol Hill, Cherry Creek, LoDo, and surrounding areas, which can make it harder to narrow your options. For OCD care, look beyond whether a therapist lists OCD as a specialty. Check whether they describe specific ERP training, their therapeutic approach, appointment availability, and whether they offer virtual or in-person sessions. A therapist’s profile can also show how they structure sessions and whether they offer a free phone consultation before you book.

Therapy in Denver can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket cost before care begins. Headway helps you find Denver OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, verify your insurance, see estimated costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready.
