I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC), licensed addiction counselor (LAC), and registered Dance/Movement Therapist (R-DMT). I take a whole-body, person-centered, and strengths-based approach to counseling and utilize a variety of modalities to address the unique needs of clients. I strive to create a welcoming and judgement free space to help you find healing, resilience, and personal growth. I have worked in a variety of mental health settings and I am passionate about helping others navigate and rise above life’s challenges.
I have more availability than my Headway calendar reflects. Once you schedule and we speak over the phone, I can provide additional times.
I am a licensed psychologist with over 33 years of experience. I strive to provide a compassionate, integrative approach to mental health, helping adults navigate life's challenges by honoring the whole person.
My goal is to provide you with a safe, emotional space where you will feel comfortable, relaxed and know that you are being heard. I want you to be able to express yourself freely without any fear of judgement. Healing takes place when you are able to be open, honest and vulnerable. Throughout my practice, it has been an honor to help facilitate extraordinary transformation in the lives of my clients. Believe me when I say that, “Anything is possible,” as I have witnessed my clients overcome trauma, grief, depression, anxiety and hardcore drug addiction.
Often, our feelings of shame, hurt and fear rob us of the opportunity to experience true joy and fulfillment in our lives. Do you find yourself running from these feelings or always fighting against them? Instead, I can help you embrace them and work through them. It is through this process of transformation where you learn to find acceptance, meaning
and purpose in your life. This leads to living with self-authenticity, and this is when you experience true joy and fulfillment. I look forward to being your catalyst for change. Together, we will take this journey and progress at your own pace. I encourage you to take the first step and make an appointment. Your life is worth it!
Do you struggle with persistent anxiety or depression? Do you have an adolescent with emotional or behavioral problems? Are you having issues with addiction? I've been assisting people in the Denver area for the past thirty years. I have worked in inpatient psychiatry and drug and alcohol rehabilitation, and I currently teach psychology and related subjects at the University of Denver. Although my clinical specialties are working with adolescents and addictive issues, I also work with individuals, couples, and families dealing with mood disorders, anger management, men's issues, and spiritual issues.
"I believe that clinical credentials are only part of the process of selecting a therapist. To that end, I offer a free fifteen-minute consultation to determine if I'm the right therapist for you."
I'm Nicole Shelton, a double board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner (APRN, PMHNP, FNP). My experience in ICU and the ER informs my holistic approach to care. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, substance use, and trauma across the lifespan. As a military wife and mother, I emphasize lifestyle balance, encouraging patients to integrate nutrition and exercise. I am dedicated to breaking mental health stigma and advocating for veterans and those impacted by trauma, ensuring you feel seen, supported, and empowered on your journey.
I've worked as a clinical social worker in community mental health and in private practice for over 12 years. I provide services in English and Spanish.
Hi there, my name is Marie and I have years of experience specializing in anxiety, depression, addiction and impulse control. I bring a wealth of knowledge for both your substance use, process addictions as well as couples and family therapy.
Attending to our mental wellbeing is the first step towards an improved life - my goal is to help you make that a reality with my experience. I have worked with individuals in regular community as well as with incarcerated individuals. My goal is to listen to your needs and to meet your where you are at without judgment.
I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner who works from the belief that people are not broken—and that many of the struggles we call “mental illness” make sense when we look at trauma, context, and lived experience. I’m especially attuned to the ways mental health systems, stigma, and labels can unintentionally cause harm, and I aim to practice in a way that feels respectful, collaborative, and deeply human.
My approach is unconventional and trauma-informed, influenced by perspectives like those of Gabor Maté, which emphasize compassion, curiosity, and understanding symptoms as meaningful responses rather than defects. I do not believe in rushing to pathologize the human experience. As Joni Mitchell once reflected about depression, sometimes what we’re feeling is not an illness to be fixed, but a signal—an honest response to pain, loss, or a world that has not been kind.
