Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Thornton, CO

Many of the people I work with are going through some kind of transition.

Sometimes that looks like anxiety that’s getting harder to manage, feeling stuck in the same patterns, or navigating changes in relationships, identity, or life direction. Other times it’s grief, stress, or a sense that something just isn’t working the way it used to.

You might find yourself overthinking, shutting down, or reacting in ways that don’t quite make sense, even to you. You may understand things logically, but still feel stuck emotionally.

My background is in clinical mental health counseling, and my work is grounded in approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I also have advanced training in working with relationship dynamics, which often show up even in individual therapy.

Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a journalist. That still shapes how I work today. I pay close attention, listen for patterns, and help you make sense of your story in a way that feels clear, grounded, and meaningful.

I received my doctorate in clinical psychology in 2018. I have practiced in a variety of settings since that time in both therapy and assessment services. I specialize in working with individual adults and older adults in the areas of trauma (ranging from severe or chronic trauma to stressful experiences), relationship issues, stress, attachment, anger, anxiety, depression, and caregiving. My specialization lies in helping clients navigate their personal narratives, struggles, and behaviors. I am a part of PsyPact and can see clients in over 40 US states. *At this time I work with individuals clients and not couples or families.

I specialize in treating anxiety and depression, especially during the peripartum period. I focus on tools and strategies that help you create a meaningful life in spite of the struggle.

Greetings! Born and raised in Florida, I’m a licensed professional/mental health counselor in the states of CO and FL. I graduated in 2019 with my MA in Rehabilitation & Mental Health Counseling from the University of South Florida in Tampa - & I have been practicing Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy in both group and individual contexts (inpatient and outpatient settings) with various populations and levels of acuity since. Currently, I serve clients on an individual basis - and am working toward offering group therapy services as well. Whether you are a Coloradan or a Floridian, we can meet virtually via the Headway platform and/or in my Denver (LoHi neighborhood) office in-person. I also have limited availability to meet at a shared office/clinic in-person in Centennial. Contact me directly for more details and to coordinate such.

My name is Lydia, I’m a southern transplant living in Colorado 5 years in the making. While I love certain parts of the South, I am passionate about dismantling the restrictive thought patterns brought on by Southern culture.

I work to meet clients wherever they are at emotionally and identify their goals so that we can work together to create the best life possible for them. I have experience working with all ages and walks of life, from first responders and caretakers to teenagers and families. I come from a family of helpers and have a deep understanding of how traumatic experiences can destabilize people's well-being. I am here to work as a guide, not a teacher, and believe that all healing is done by the patient. I seek to empower my patients and show them their inner strength that was there all along.

Hi and thanks for checking out my profile! I specialize in working with couples and individuals experiencing relationship issues. I also provide Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy. My education is in clinical mental health and I have a wide range of clinical experience. I focus on the emotional connection between couples and helping individuals build thriving relationships with themselves and others!
