I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who works primarily with children, adolescents, young adults, and families navigating emotional intensity, relational stress, and life transitions. My practice focuses on helping young people feel more regulated, understood, and confident in who they are, while supporting caregivers in strengthening connection and emotional safety at home.

I have training in attachment-based and experiential therapies, including Emotion Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), and I incorporate trauma-informed approaches to help clients build insight and resilience. I am especially passionate about supporting youth through nature-based therapy and providing affirming care for LGBTQ+ clients.

My background includes working with adolescents experiencing anxiety, depression, family conflict, identity exploration, and emotional dysregulation. I strive to create a space where clients feel safe, respected, and empowered to grow.

Hello, and welcome. I'm Christine Laster, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 21 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life's challenges. Throughout my career, I have worked in a variety of settings, including child welfare, school social work, and domestic violence services. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of trauma, resilience, and the unique challenges people face at different stages of life. I earned both my Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) and Master of Social Work (MSW) from Metropolitan State University of Denver. In addition to my clinical work, I am an adjunct professor at the University of Denver, where I have the privilege of teaching and mentoring graduate-level social work students.

I work with adults, seniors and adolescents who are experiencing many different kinds of

challenges. These can include anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, life transitions,

work stress, and trauma. My approach is collaborative, and I try to create an environment

where people feel comfortable talking about what is happening in their lives.

I listen carefully and seek to understand each client’s unique circumstances.

Helping people better understand themselves remains at the center of my approach.

This can include recognizing patterns and finding more effective ways of handling the

difficulties they face.

Hello, dear one, and welcome. I'm so glad you're here. I help those who feel everything — the ones who need more recovery time than everyone around them, who've been called "too sensitive" or "too much" by people who never had to carry what you carry. You're not too much. Your nervous system is doing exactly what it was built to do. Many of my clients come to me with anxiety that won't quiet down, depression that's settled in like fog, trauma that keeps showing up in the body, or the kind of exhaustion that doesn't lift no matter how much they rest. For some, it's meant holding everything together — the high achiever, the one everyone calls for advice, the one who looks fine from the outside while running on empty. Burnout isn't a personal failing here. It's what happens when you've been rewarded for ignoring your own needs and limits for too long. For others, it's meant leaving a faith that no longer fits, questioning who taught them to distrust their body and intuition, or untangling the belief that they have to hustle harder, earn their rest, prove their worth, or make themselves small to keep others comfortable. If you see yourself in any of this, you're in the right place. Together, we start understanding what those experiences are trying to tell you, instead of treating them as something to fix. You aren't broken — you are responding to what was asked of you. We figure out what doing this differently could look like, at whatever pace feels right for you. Whatever brings you here, this is a safe, unhurried place to ask the questions you learned not to ask.

Therapy should be accessible and affordable, you deserve to life a live free of self judgment and doubt. I offer a warm, affirming, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore all parts of yourself. My approach is collaborative, helping you to find skills and ways of thinking that actually make a difference. My role is to walk alongside you as you slow things down, make sense of what’s happening inside, and reconnect with your own clarity and voice.

Living with anxiety and depression can lead to feeling exhausted and joyless. I use several methods to treat those symptoms in adult women, teenagers, and children aged 12+. My goal is to help people learn to enjoy life again. Other focuses of mine are women going through parenting challenges and life transitions and college students and their life transitions, and insomnia. Sleep is so important and can affect mental health on a daily basis.

I have been practicing therapy for 10 years with passion for working with individuals. My specialties are trauma, grief, anxiety, depression and working with addictions. I am EMDR trained and currently working on my addictions license. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Metro St. University of Denver in 2011 and my Masters of Science in Counseling Psychology from Evangel University in 2013.

Something brought you here. Maybe it's the anxiety that won't quiet down, the depression that won't go away, your reliance on substances holding you back, or the weight of traumatic experiences you've been carrying longer than you can remember. Or maybe it's something else entirely.

I'm Bradley — a master's level, dually-licensed mental health and addiction counselor who knows what it means to be human and how to navigate the challenges of our full human experience. I spent over three decades in business, technology, consulting, teaching, training, and military service before devoting my life to service.

Since 2015, I've worked as a mindfulness, meditation, and contemplative wisdom teacher, a somatic practice guide and natural medicine facilitator, a researcher, writer, and now as a therapist. Today, I help my adult clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and the deeper questions that often lie beneath them. I also support people through major life transitions, grief and loss, existential inquiry, identity exploration, career alignment, family dysfunction, relationship dynamics, and more — combining evidence-based practice, modern neuroscience, applied psychophysiology, and contemplative reflection into a holistic approach that focuses on the root causes and conditions that cause suffering in our lives.

I know what it is to stand on one side of the doorway and I know what it is to stand on the other side of that very same doorway — and now I help others cross the threshold for themselves... If I can help you cross that threshold, if you're ready, then I'm here.
