I utilize evidenced based interventions from both acceptance and commitment therapy and trauma-informed care principles in my practice. I graduated in 2017 from the University of Denver with my Masters in Social Work and have been providing both inpatient and outpatient treatment since that time. My education and both, personal and professional experiences have allowed me to develop skills to work with diverse, often marginalized populations, such as members of the LGBTQIA+ population or those where English is not their first language. My specialities for work center around severe mental illnesses, such as: schizophrenia and other thought disorders, mood disorders, and anxiety disorders. Typically clients I work with have the above noted challenges, but have also experienced other stressors in their relationships, employment, and/or with addiction(s) of some kind.
During the first session, our goal is to start to get to know you, what’s important to you, what you’re experiencing, what may still be lingering from the past, what your strengths and resources are, and to set some initial goals for our work together. Based on the initial session and our collaborative conversation, we will have some ideas as to the approaches that will be likely to help you achieve the change you’re striving for. Our varied educational and professional backgrounds mean that we’re ready to help a wide variety of clients. We utilize a variety of approaches and techniques that will work for YOU, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based therapies, solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, existential therapy, emotion-focused couples therapy, and others. All of our work is trauma-informed.

We are living in a pressure-filled, anxiety inducing world and I am here to help you navigate through it! I am passionate about helping my clients deal with all of the everyday life “stuff” that they and so many others struggle with. In today’s society, it feels like so many people are pressured to fit inside a certain box to “qualify for” or “need” therapy. With my experience working with diverse clientele in various settings, I strive to be a clinician who is working towards changing the narrative on who therapy is or is not intended for. I understand first hand the pressures, unrealistic expectations, and struggles we are faced with on a regular basis. My practice focuses primarily on anxiety and depression, as well as working with clients who simply just need someone to talk to. I hear you, I'm here for you, and I want to help. I am here and ready to take this journey with you, all you have yo do is reach out!
utilize a wide range of theories and approaches to provide insights into your psyche and teach skills to help address those revelations. Using primarily Psychoanalytical and psychodynamic therapy, I look at how your unconscious thoughts and perceptions developed throughout your childhood, and how this may affect your current behavior and thoughts. I also use Holistic psychotherapy which is an integrative approach grounded in psychosynthesis. This focuses on the relationship between mind, body, and spirit and explores how issues in one aspect of your life can lead to concerns in other areas. Unlike other forms of therapy, these methods help create deep-seated changes in your emotional development. We all have a part of our psyche that helps us to heal, grow, and thrive; sometimes we lose touch with that part of ourselves. We can feel lost, disconnected, anxious, or depressed. While working collaboratively and genuinely, we can discover what works and what doesn't work for you. By crafting a unique treatment plan that draws upon various theories and approaches such as, CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), Mindfulness, Play Therapy Approaches, Existential Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, and Sandtray Therapy we can explore more ways to help create a deeper understanding.
Dr. Amy King is a licensed psychologist who specializes in insight-oriented therapy. Symptoms such as panic attacks, depression, or anxiety are often outward signs of a deeper struggle. Coping skills and behavioral strategies are helpful, and sometimes necessary, first steps in managing symptoms. But for those seeking lasting change, clear understanding of the root problem paves the way for effective and powerful interventions that brings deep healing, not just symptom management. If you are tired of fighting the same fight, and if you are ready for productive and energizing change, I’m here for you. Let’s get started!
Wonderful things are possibly when we connect with our authentic self. We see a reduction in anxiety, depression, shame and doubt. We see an increase in confidence, assertiveness and mindfulness. If you are feeling motivated to address some of the "stuff" getting in the way of your wellbeing, feel free to reach out to further discuss if we'd be a good fit.

Amazing personal transformations take through the therapeutic process. I’ve had the privilege of serving clients with a wide range of issues including depression, anxiety, anger, self-destructive behavior, trauma as well as those who just seek better coping skills or want greater insight to themselves so they can live more authentic lives of purpose and peace. My style is deeply compassionate while also being direct and directive. I do not believe in meandering, aimless therapy. I believe in structure and accountability in the therapeutic journey. Together, we set specific goals and we work towards those goals in a safe, but challenging environment.
Are you feeling overwhelmed by classes, relationships, family dynamics, or just life in general? College can be a time of huge transition — emotionally, socially, and academically. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or stress around identity and relationships, I offer a safe, inclusive space where you don’t have to figure it all out alone. I work with college students from all walks of life and am passionate about creating a space rooted in empathy, curiosity, and genuine connection. My approach is always tailored to you, because no two people experience things the same way. Therapy can feel intimidating, but I’ll make sure you feel seen, heard, and supported every step of the way. I specialize in a trauma-informed and systemic approach, incorporating modalities like Internal Family Systems (IFS), Narrative Therapy, and Attachment Theory to help you explore your inner world with compassion and clarity. My work is experiential and empowering — designed to help you better understand yourself and move toward the life you want to live. Finding the right therapist can be tough, and I want this to be a space that feels not only safe but also meaningful and real. Whether you're working through personal challenges or navigating complicated relationships, I’m here to support you.
Hi! I'm Allison. I'm here to help you with the stress, overwhelm, and anxiety you're feeling as you try to lead the life you want. If you're tired of being REALLY hard on yourself and you want to start letting go of that and be more content with who you are, reach out. I'm anti-racist, LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergence affirming, and I'm ready to support you. I see clients in person near I25 and Colorado in Denver or by telehealth. My goal is to meet you where you are and understand what you want to work on – you’re the expert on your life but I can help you see it differently and make the changes you want. That might include coping strategies, looking at your needs, strengths, and values, using brain/body techniques like Brainspotting to release uncomfortable emotions, and more. I always start with the relationship because you can’t work with someone you don’t trust. I am calm, focused, and empathetic, and I still have a sense of humor. I’m always authentic (and I’m not always the textbook therapist) and I give you the space to be the real you. I’ll see you, I’ll accept you, and I’ll have your back as you make the changes you want. Reach out today for your free 30 minute consultation! You can call, email, or text.

When you’re the type of person who “shows up” for everyone else, it can be hard to admit you’re burned out. Helping is how you’ve learned to cope, connect and stay safe. I treat depression, anxiety, and burnout for people (15 years and older) who are too busy pleasing others to help themselves. My clients often find themselves having sudden health issues or lack of concentration and get into an identity crisis! "Who am I if I can't pull off miracles every day?!?" I offer a combination of psychotherapy and art therapy, which works well for people who don’t know where to start. I also integrate financial therapy into sessions because money issues are often unspoken roadblocks to personal growth. Art therapy is for all ages, and I primarily work with teens and adults. If a little part of you did a cartwheel when you read “art therapy”, it just might be a good fit for you. If another little part of you also got scared and nervous, that’s completely normal. You won't be judged about talent or skill, it's really about the process, not the product. Many clients have big new insights into their lives by working with images. When you've been running on empty, it's time to fill your tank. I'm a recovered pleaser too!
YOU matter. As do your stories of grief and loss, trauma, identity questions, anxiety and stress.... All of these things are such human struggles and yet, are so disregarded, often misunderstood, and can even be painfully disrespected. So much so that it can be really hard to know where to start or how to navigate through them. When working together with me: - FIRST, you'll be believed. - Then, through earned trust, safety, and collaboration, we'll work together to help you gain new insights and tools toward a sense of relief and wellness. I provide individual and group therapy and offer both in person and telehealth options through Ellie Mental Health. (In person options are either in Aurora or Lakewood!) You can reach out to me directly OR you can visit the website and find my bio and schedule with me through the search filters.
Hi my name is Lucinda and I work with traditional, non-traditional, and first-generation students who are struggling with adjusting to college life, anxiety, significant life transitions, and grief/loss. Becoming a therapist is my second career. I graduated from MSU Denver with my Masters of Social Work and I'm a Clinical Social Work Candidate working towards full licensure as an LCSW. My first career was working in higher education for 14 years, mostly as an Academic Advisor. I understand how difficult it can be to attend college right out of high school or going back after a long break. It can be stressful. I want to help you navigate the uncertainties that life will throw your way while in school, while at the same time being able to be successful in achieving your academic and life goals. Let's connect and see how I can help you overcome anything that may be holding you back from the life you deserve.
