Therapists for college students near 80309

Welcome! Whether you are beginning your therapeutic journey for the first time or returning to continue your progress, I am so glad you’re here. Starting therapy is a significant step towards self-discovery and healing, and I commend you for taking it! I have a profound commitment to assisting individuals, especially young adults, who are dealing with trauma and anxiety. These experiences can be challenging and often overwhelming, affecting various aspects of life. My specialization in trauma therapy provides you with a safe, supportive space to explore and heal from past experiences. Similarly, my experience in anxiety management can support you in understanding and overcoming the symptoms that may be impacting your daily life. I have worked in Community Mental Health for over three years where meeting with clients in some of their darkest times has influenced me to take specified approaches to therapy. I create a relaxed atmosphere with an informal, friendly communication style, allowing you to express yourself freely. I work alongside you, guiding and supporting your journey with an approach tailored to your needs, and your feedback is invaluable for productive sessions.

Finding a therapist is so much fun! Said no one, ever...We're likely a fit if you feel like others' don't get you/your lifestyle, consider yourself an outlier, or identify with a marginalized community, and/or is a high-risk/risk-taker. Also, if you use substances recreationally, medicinally, spiritually, and/or problematically I'd love to hear more and support your relationship with those substances. Contact me to schedule a free consultation and we can discuss more than what 640 characters allow. Stay rad & be kind. For folx seeking Clinical Supervision for LPC and/or LAC hrs, I ONLY take post-grads. If you found me through the Board of Nursing for SUD assessment, contact me to discuss this process, fee, and I require IN-PERSON evaluation for this. I care for my clients and recognize this is your life, time, finances, and energy. You are the expert in your life and I'm here to help explore what may be getting in the way of your highest self. I am honored to work with someone who has the desire to feel seen, heard, and allowed to be their authentic selves in a judgement-free and supportive environment.

I specialize in women's mental health (child-free by choice, career advancement & difficulties, relational dynamics, high-power positions, personal growth focus), and LGBTQ+, transgender, and non-binary focused care, including surgery support letters. I help clients make sense of their lives through connecting with their own emotional experiences. I recognize the influence that injustice, oppression and family upbringing can have. I work to frame the emotional struggles in terms of what they are - powerful survival mechanisms that served you well in the past, yet need to be revisited to further grow. Many clients enter therapy feeling vulnerable. Through working on empowerment, from a feminist and queer theory lens, I help the client learn that they are in charge of their lives outside of therapy. It is my hope that through therapy, I am able to assist my clients in living a more congruent, fulfilling, and meaningful life. I am a PSYPACT provider.

Finding calm and clarity when your mind won’t slow down is possible. I can guide the way. We have more influence over our thoughts than we realize. In our work, you’ll learn to approach your thinking more intentionally. As your thoughts change, you’ll start to notice changes in how you feel, the choices you make, and how you move through your life. I help clients slow things down, make sense of what’s been difficult, and address the patterns that keep them feeling stuck. This often includes working through anxiety, depression, and the impact of trauma and past experiences. I also support women navigating life transitions, helping them feel more grounded and steady through change. My approach is thoughtful and practical, combining insight with tools you can use in your day-to-day life.

Our private practice is located near I-25 and Colorado Blvd. We utilize Play Therapy with children and teens in addition to working with adult individuals and families to create the empowerment to make choices that better fit the reality you envision for yourself. For too long, mental well-being has been something that people were supposed to figure out for themselves. We're here to tell you that it really isn't necessary to go it alone.

Hello! My name is Brandon and I have been in social services/mental health for about 9 years now. I have had a lot of success with young adult clients and adult clients looking to empower themselves but are maybe held back by ADHD, anxiety, depression, low self-worth, relational issues, people pleasing, addiction, religious trauma - and much more! If I were to sum up my job to a few words, it is to empower you to live the life that you want! The relationship that we build together is super important to me as well, and I am good at building rapport with clients instead of being a "therapy robot". So, how can I help? I have built a reputation of being a straightforward and honest therapist, meaning I will challenge you, point out certain contradictions in thought patterns, push you to be more aware and mindful of problematic behaviors, validate your emotional experience, and explore your past to find reasons of certain behaviors you now struggle with. I'm a big music nerd who loves concerts and I play a couple of instruments. I really enjoy nerdy things like fantasy/sci-fi movies, shows, books, video games etc. I am also quite active and like to ski, mountain bike, enjoy the outdoors, and I like most sports overall. I'd love to invite you to call or email me if you think we'd be a good fit!

As a therapist, I believe that every individual has an innate capacity for wisdom, healing, and wholeness. My role is to provide a safe and nonjudgmental space where clients feel supported and empowered to access their inner strengths. Guided by a deep commitment to unconditional positive regard, I focus on creating meaningful therapeutic connections that honor each client’s unique experiences and identity. Growing up a neurodivergent child, I was medicated and pushed into talk therapy that only seemed to make things worse to be completely honest. What offered me the most solace in these times was my relationship to nature and animals. For this reason, I find it important to offer trauma-informed, diverse approaches to therapy, such as animal-assisted therapy, mindfulness and nature based therapies, walk-and-talk sessions, and nature retreats, as well as, traditional office and telehealth sessions. It is very important to me to provide therapy that is flexible and accessible for clients to engage in, so we will collaborate to find the best approach for your sessions possible! Whether you are a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and are in need of support, or you’re experiencing neurodivergent burnout, navigating life transitions, working to build self-acceptance, or healing from past experiences, I promise to walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity, and authenticity. Together, we will create a space where your voice is heard, your identity is celebrated, and your journey toward healing feels affirming and grounded.

In a fast-paced world, where one mistake feels like a disaster, I offer support so you can slow things down, gain perspective, and relearn how to self-compassion. My hope is that you can find the emotional tools that you need to have a full, peaceful, and happy life. The therapeutic process is a very personal experience that we come to for different reasons. No matter where you are in your life journey, my goal is to honor your process and provide you with a safe space to heal, learn new skills, and receive support. I specialized in Maternal Mental Health, Breakup/Divorce Recovery, Generalized Anxiety, and Career Counseling. Feel free to contact me for information about a free initial consultation to see if we would be a good fit.

Do you spend a lot of time thinking about or avoiding the past? Do you experience so much anxiety that it interferes with your life? Many of my clients come to me struggling with trauma, PTSD, anxiety disorders, and related issues. Others are frozen by depression. They may feel shame or guilt about what they’ve been through, or who they are today. I know that feeling can overwhelm you and make it hard just to get out of bed each day. I also know that with the right help, you can feel better. Once my clients are able to make peace with the past, they experience freedom and relief. They can actually start living again. When you’re ready to get started, I’ll meet you where you’re at. Once you feel safe, we’ll work on understanding and releasing the past. I use modalities to help with trauma and anxiety, including ART( Accelerated resolution therapy), EMDR, and Brainspotting. These approaches combine your mind and body experiences, to help you heal from the inside out. I provide secure teletherapy appointments, so you can relax at home.

College can be exciting—but also overwhelming. If you’re feeling anxious, burnt out, unmotivated, or unsure of how to manage everything on your plate, you’re not alone. I specialize in working with college students navigating the stress of academics, relationships, identity, and big life transitions. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, ADHD, depression, or past trauma, my goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can explore what’s going on, learn practical tools to feel more in control, and start to feel like yourself again. My approach is warm, collaborative, and real—I meet you where you are and work with you to set goals that actually make sense for your life. Together, we’ll find strategies that fit you, whether that’s therapy, medication support, or both. You don’t have to figure it all out on your own. Reach out if you’re ready to get started.

Do you feel stuck? Do you feel like you know all the rules and what you are “supposed to do” but somehow can’t get where you want to go? As your therapist, it is my goal to help you feel at home in your mind, body, and heart. I can help deconstruct and shift your “shoulds” into something that feels more authentic and meaningful to you. We also can dig into your past and explore how old coping mechanisms that may have helped at one time are now limiting. I am trained in a myriad of techniques—including mindfulness and EMDR—to gently guide your mind and body back to the present moment to a state of well-being and resiliency. I believe in your innate goodness and will always remind and point this out to you. I cannot tell you what is right/wrong or healthy/unhealthy and I resist being another voice telling you what you are “supposed to do”. My job is to provide a warm and accepting space to not just think and talk but to feel the big emotions. I will ask questions, reflect, and ponder alongside you as we rediscover your inherent wisdom and regain a sense of freedom. My clients tend to be intelligent humans who feel caught in their anxious minds, trauma, or simply desire support in living a more authentic and meaningful life. I work with people suffering from anxiety, perfectionism, life changes and transitions, grief, disordered eating, trauma, panic attacks, binge eating disorder, low self esteem, poor body image, and depression among many more. Let’s connect. I’d love to hear from you. Book a free 20 minute phone consult: https://electra-byers.clientsecure.me

If you’re feeling less like yourself, with anxious thoughts, trouble sleeping, trouble making decisions, difficulty motivating or just feeling like your new life wasn’t what you expected, I can help get you on a new path towards healing and connection. I help college students with adjustment, stress, depression, anxiety and relationship issues. I have training working with those withADHD and associated issues, as well as specialized understanding of the pressure faced by high level collegiate athletes.

Deciding to seek therapy can be a hard step to take because it means facing your problems rather than running away from them. When we experience uncomfortable emotions, our instinct a lot of the time is to avoid it and convince ourselves (as well as others) that we're okay. This may lead to short-term relief, however, we often don't realize that it also leads to long-term growth of the issue. This is one way we end up in vicious cycles of depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem (which is difficult enough to deal with on top of college adjustments). My goal is to assist individuals with breaking this cycle by gaining new perspectives on their life situations and in turn empowering them to achieve their personal goals. If you're ready to take the first step toward a brighter future, I would be honored to work with you.

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.

Do you struggle with excessive worrying? Do you find yourself avoiding certain situations out of fear or nervousness? Do certain situations trigger you emotionally? Are you always striving to be the very best academically while being hard on yourself if you don't measure up to your own expectations? If any of these scenarios sound familiar to you, I can help. I have over 12 years experience working with people who experience issues related to Anxiety and Trauma. I also specialize in helping people overcome Perfectionism and other issues related to Over-Achieving. I utilize cutting edge, evidence based therapies including EMDR, Mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people overcome their challenges. When I work with people I try to see the world through their eyes while also providing new perspectives. I help people understand the origins of their problems while helping them learn new skills to manage symptoms. I often utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help people resolve trauma and anxiety. This cutting edge therapy can alleviate symptoms more quickly and thoroughly than talk therapy alone. I also love working with college students! I provide both in person and tele-therapy.

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with nearly four years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges. My path into this field was shaped by a deep belief in the power of human connection and the importance of having a safe space to explore life’s complexities. I understand that seeking therapy can feel like a big step, and my goal is to meet you where you are—with warmth, authenticity, and care. I work with adults, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, relational stress, life transitions, and a desire for personal or interpersonal growth. I believe that healing happens when you feel truly seen and supported, and I’m committed to creating a space where you can be heard without judgment and empowered to make meaningful change.
