I am a psychiatrist trained in adult psychiatry, though I do have some experience working in adolescent and geriatric psychiatry as well. I try to integrate western medicine approaches to care with more holistic approaches, which often includes providing psychotherapy, medications, and lifestyle modification. I have specific interest in different psychotherapy modalities, and often incorporate some aspects of psychotherapy in my visits with clients even if this is not the primary focus. In my work, I like to focus on your strengths, goals, and values as the main components of our treatment plan. I try to bring a curious, open-minded, and compassionate energy to my work.
I earned my doctorate degree in clinical psychology from the University of Denver and have been in private practice for over ten years. I consider it an honor to be in relationship with my clients and to help them better understand themselves and change their lives. I strive to celebrate and create a safe space for all aspects of your identity.
Congratulations. Exploring options for therapy/therapists can be daunting, but finding a good fit is important. I've been a therapist with youth, adults, families and couples in multiple settings since 1999. While I have extensive training and experience in multiple Evidence-Based Therapies, I combine that with life experience to bring you the best partner for your exploration and improvement.
Hi! My name is Christina Allard. I have been working in the mental health field for 10 years with experience with residential, inpatient and outpatient therapy. I graduated with my Masters of arts in Counseling from Regis University.
As a lived-experience therapist, I specialize in neurodiversity-affirming therapy for individuals navigating eating disorders, religious trauma, chronic illness, and identity exploration. My goal is to provide a brave, non-judgmental space where you can reflect on your experiences, reclaim agency over your life, and develop strategies that align with your unique strengths and values. I believe that you are the expert on your own story, and in our work together, I will encourage you to trust yourself more deeply and move toward healing in a way that feels right for you.
I offer online individual therapy for adults and teens across California and Colorado, providing accessible and affirming care that meets you where you are. Whether you're exploring your relationship with food and body, healing from religious trauma, or navigating life as a neurodivergent person, I’m here to support you with a therapy experience that prioritizes collaboration and consent.
Hi there! My name is Dominique and I have nearly a decade of experience in the mental health field. My specialties range from anxiety, depression, trauma, psychosis, and substance use disorders.
Hi, I’m Laura and I specialize in helping women and teens heal from trauma, whether it shows up as anxiety, overthinking, people-pleasing, or feeling completely disconnected from themselves. I experienced trauma growing up and know firsthand how it impacts the whole body.
Through Somatic therapy, Brainspotting, and EMDR, I help clients release what’s stuck in their bodies and rebuild trust in themselves—because healing isn’t about “getting over it,” it’s about feeling safe again.
I believe in our capacity to adapt, grow, love, grieve, overcome & thrive. Stressful events, trauma, loss, illness & change can overwhelm our ability to cope. We become stuck. We protect ourselves to avoid ever feeling that pain again. Solutions that once worked become part of the problem. When the wound is triggered, we experience pain & distorted ways of thinking. In therapy, we journey together to uncover & remove blocks to healing, transforming pain & loss into meaning, awareness & choice.
Hi, I'm Alex! I'm excited to get to know you. My friends describe me as a golden retriever, which is energy I think I also bring into therapy. I'm going to be by your side every step of the way.
The connection between you and I will be the most important factor in our work together - it will be my top priority to get to know you as your own person with your unique experiences, thoughts, and feelings.
My non-work time is spent adventuring with my kids, reading, & making bizarre Spotify playlists for any occasion.
I am an open minded therapist who believes in the connection between the mind and the body. I provide a safe and nonjudgmental place to process the difficulties of life and relationships. If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, neurodivergence, or postpartum/motherhood, don’t hesitate to reach out to begin your journey to healing
Taryn Hodison's treatment approach is eclectic in nature but she mainly uses psychodynamic therapy in her practice. Clients benefit from her services if they are ready to examine and develop insight into how past experiences impact their present lives. Clients will be validated and gently challenged in therapy to get through the mental blocks that keep them stuck.
Growing up neurodivergent, I knew my life purpose was to learn to navigate a world that wasn't meant for me and to help others do the same. As a therapist, former teacher, & crisis responder, I understand what it takes to navigate toxic stress in a world that wasn't built for your brain or nervous system. I had a period as a young adult in which I was disabled by neurodivergent burnout and had to reshape my entire life trajectory. I had a therapist that truly saw me - it was the support I needed to create my future self. Today, that same passion drives my clinical work. You are not broken, and your adaptations make complete sense given what you’ve been through.
I earned a BA in Psychology/Human Services, went on for an MSW and have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2017. I have extensive experience as a school clinician, respite business owner, and non-profit director. I opened my therapy practice in 2019. My practice focuses on supporting neurodivergent and gifted teens and adults, women, LGBTQ+/ENBY/Trans*, and BIPOC folks facing burnout, trauma, grief and major life pivots. Whether you are processing trauma, recovering from betrayal, navigating divorce, parenting, facing loss, health changes, or untangling the burnout of masking or people-pleasing, our work centers on helping you drop the mask, establish meaningful boundaries, and step into grounded self-worth. Your future self is waiting! In our sessions, you can expect warm, down-to-earth collaboration rooted in real-world strategies. When you’re ready to prioritize your own healing, I invite you to connect with me. Outside of being a therapist, I am a proud single momma to a neuro-spicy kiddo and a pittie. I enjoy crafting, travel, making art, yoga, dancing, and the outdoors.
