I have been a therapist in the Denver Metro area since 1994. I take a holistic, person-centered approach, integrating various modalities to meet the unique needs of each individual and I consider it an honor to learn about you and to support your goals. I focus on your strengths-based goals and encourage you to move at your own pace to keep up a life long journey toward better health and self care.

My name is Danielle, and I was born and raised in Colorado Springs. As a former college athlete, I have always valued movement, balance, and living an active lifestyle. In my free time, I enjoy swimming, hiking, running, biking, and spending weekends in the mountains, along with being a mother to my two precious children! 🥰
I earned my Master’s degree from University of Denver, where I discovered my passion for psychology and understanding human behavior. Throughout my career, I have worked with children, adolescents, teenagers, and adults across a variety of treatment settings. I have extensive experience supporting individuals struggling with eating disorders, depression, anxiety, trauma, learning disabilities, autism, personality disorders, identity concerns, and other mental health challenges. I believe there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to therapy. I enjoy taking an integrative and individualized approach to treatment, meeting clients where they are while supportively walking alongside them throughout their journey. My therapeutic style is compassionate, empathetic, and client-centered. My goal is to help clients cultivate inner peace, self-acceptance, and resilience as they navigate life’s many transitions and adventures.
Professionally, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado (License #LPC.0015577, 2017). I have worked in inpatient, partial hospitalization, residential treatment, and traditional outpatient settings within the mental health field. I have specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), both of which I incorporate into my practice. I am also certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy and board certified in neurofeedback therapy (BCN)!
I am a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and Acute Care Nurse Practitioner (ACNP) committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care for adults. My approach integrates current research, individualized treatment planning, and collaborative decision-making to support each patient’s unique goals and needs.
I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and treatment, including medication management using evidence-based practices. I work with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma-related conditions, and other mood disorders. My goal is to create a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where patients feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their care.
I believe that effective treatment is built on a strong therapeutic relationship. By working together, we will develop a personalized plan that promotes symptom management, resilience, and overall well-being. I am committed to helping you feel empowered in your mental health journey and to ensuring that your voice remains central in the treatment process
Hi there, I'm Jim Thompson and I have 6+ years of experience working with adults moving through life's transitions. Whether a career change, a shift in an important relationship, a season where the old ways of doing things just don't fit or work anymore - I help people navigate those changes, along with the bigger questions about meaning and direction that tend to come with them.
My style is warm, thoughtful, and unhurried. I'll meet you where you are. If you're looking for a steady presence while you sort out what's next, I'd be glad to walk alongside you.
Hello! For the past 12 years I have worked as a trauma therapist in a safety net hospital with individuals who have life threatening psychiatric conditions. As I embark on a new journey opening my own practice, I hope to use this experience to help you live the life you want to be living. I utilize evidenced based therapies to treat anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, and the stress of being a person in 2024.
My primary focus is the restoration of the nervous system. I specialize in supporting recovery from complex, relational, and medical trauma. Because trauma impacts every layer of how we function, my practice also centers on the deeply connected challenges that come with it—including severe anxiety, chronic stress, mood fluctuations, complex personality patterns, and the profound journey of grief and loss.
Completed my adult psychiatry residency at Duke University Medical Center and recognize the importance of synergistic effects of pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy to achieve best clinical outcomes. Beyond Medical school and Psychiatric residency, I completed an additional Ph.D. in Neurosciences, fostering a deeper understanding of the field of Psychiatry and psychotropic treatment options. I have additional knowledge and experience in adjunct treatments including TMS and Ketamine.
Welcome! I am a Latina, bilingual therapist based in Denver, CO passionate about trauma-informed care. I was born and raised on the border in El Paso, Texas. I received my Master of Social Work from the University of Denver following an academic career at Johns Hopkins where I majored in psychology and public health and received a Master of Health Science in Public Health.
I have worked at various levels of care (outpatient, IOP, and PHP) and have experience with several populations including: Latinx, unhoused youth, and youth experiencing first episode psychosis.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Colorado
Searching for therapists in Colorado means choosing from a wide range of licensed therapists across urban, suburban, and rural areas. Your options may vary depending on where you live, what kind of support you want, and whether you prefer in-person or virtual care. If you’re looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, or life transitions, start by looking for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Location and scheduling matter when comparing Colorado therapists. Someone in Denver may have access to many nearby offices, while someone in Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, or a mountain or rural community may want to include virtual sessions in their search. Some people prefer meeting in a therapist’s office, while others choose virtual appointments for more flexibility. As you narrow your options, review whether each therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand communication style, session structure, and what to expect in the first appointment.
The cost of therapy in Colorado can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps by verifying your insurance, showing estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and connecting you with licensed therapists who are accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage for your location and plan as you search — making it easier to find a therapist who matches your needs, accepts your insurance, and has availability.
