Therapists for college students near Denver, CO
Are you feeling caught in old patterns, overwhelmed by anxiety, or unsure how to feel confident in your own skin? I specialize in helping adolescents and adults work through addiction, anxiety, ADHD, eating disorders, and body image issues. My goal is to create a supportive space where you can explore challenges, values, and build practical strategies and work towards growth. I bring warmth, humor, and clear guidance to therapy. Cognitive techniques help uncover how thoughts shape emotions and actions, while mindfulness fosters calm and focus. We’ll also explore your values to guide our work. Humor keeps things light, and directness ensures we stay on track. Together, we’ll work toward lasting growth and confidence.
Being in college can be challenging- you're juggling academics, a social life, and are in a transition age where you may be feeling a lot of pressure to have it "all figured out". I'm here to support you in finding balance as you navigate life's inevitable ups and downs. I specialize in working with individuals who are struggling with the transition to college or the many changes that arise during the college experience. I have experience working with individuals who have suffered from life-changing events and are seeking to rediscover themselves in the aftermath. I also have extensive experience assisting clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, identity and self-esteem issues, and healing from cancer or other physical illness. In our sessions, we’ll create a safe space to explore what you’re going through and work together to find practical steps forward. I believe that true healing involves the mind, body, and spirit all working together and I take a holistic approach to therapy. I draw from various techniques, including mindfulness and trauma-informed care, to create a space where you can feel safe and understood. My goal is to help you reconnect with yourself, discover your strengths, and learn to relate to adversity in a new way. You have taken the first step and have found this page because you are finally ready to do the work. Now, let's connect for our first session.
Hi! I am a licensed psychologist providing individual video teletherapy sessions in Colorado. I specialize in working with those coping with trauma recovery (this could be past abuse or processing a recent painful experience), chronic medical conditions, grief and loss, and disordered eating concerns. I have had several years experience working with college students, and I know balancing your life can be really tough at this time. I work with students who have marginalized identities (e.g., BIPOC, female students) navigating the social, systemic, and personal maze of this world. I approach therapy genuinely and compassionately, and work to empower and validate my clients. Therapy is truly all about fit, so if you feel like I may be able to support you, please visit my website or contact me directly!
Life rarely moves in a straight path, and the transitions, pressures, and losses that come with it can leave you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself. As a clinical social worker and therapist, helping people navigate the challenges that arise throughout adulthood is work I find deeply meaningful. Whether you're managing the weight of a major life change, working through strained relationships, struggling with work-life balance, facing caregiver stress, or searching for a renewed sense of purpose, you don't have to navigate it alone. These experiences can stir up anxiety, sadness, frustration, guilt, isolation, or hopelessness, and that's exactly where meaningful support can make a difference. Together, we work to transform those challenges into opportunities for growth and a more fulfilling, joyful life. At the heart of effective therapy is a strong, trusting relationship, and building that with you is my first priority. Empathy, authenticity, and genuine connection are not just values I hold; they are the foundation of how I show up for every person I work with, because you deserve a space where you feel truly heard and respected, and where open, honest dialogue is always welcomed. As we work together, I draw from evidence-based approaches tailored to your unique needs, preferences, and goals. That might look like broadening perspective, building resilience, practicing self-compassion, or challenging the thoughts that keep you feeling small. Whatever your path forward looks like, my aim is to be a supportive partner dedicated to your healing journey as you reclaim your sense of agency, practice self-compassion, and deepen your connection to yourself and others. My path to becoming a therapist began with a feeling of restlessness after a trial run at retirement. Reflecting on my life, I realized there was still more to give, just as so many had given to me along the way. Throughout my own journey, the attentive listening and encouragement of others kept me hopeful during fearful and uncertain times. Phrases like "this too shall pass," "one day at a time," “don’t borrow worry,” and "to thine own self be true" became anchors when doubt and insecurity crept in. Those experiences shaped my deep belief in the power of being truly heard. Before this chapter, I spent my career in management and leadership roles at innovative medical device companies, guiding diverse teams through change and helping develop products that improved patient access and outcomes. That work taught me the enduring importance of empathy, trusted communication, and adaptability. Those same qualities now live at the center of my therapeutic practice. In my free time, you'll most likely find me soaking up the Colorado sun with family and friends, hiking, skiing, traveling, or simply following wherever curiosity leads
Life can feel overwhelming at times, leaving us stuck or unsure of how to move forward. My goal is to instill a sense of hope and trust—a belief that growth and healing are possible, even in moments of discomfort or resistance. Paige meets clients where they are, including those who may feel unsure about therapy or hesitant to engage, creating a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore challenges and develop lasting skills. Clients also learn new ways of thinking and behaving that shift how they see themselves and their situations, helping them not only cope, but truly feel better and more empowered. Paige works with anxiety, depression, ADHD, emotional dysregulation, OCD, self-esteem, behavioral concerns, and trauma. Using a trauma-informed, strengths-based approach, She helps clients build resilience, confidence, coping, and social/problem-solving skills while fostering emotional growth and self-understanding. She uses Person-Centered Therapy, CBT, ACT, and DBT skills, along with mindfulness to support clients in exploring unhelpful beliefs and reframing them into helpful and empowering perspectives. Together, we work toward greater self-understanding, confidence, and an increased ability to navigate life’s challenges.

Are you struggling with feelings of disconnection and isolation? Are you too self-critical or perfectionistic and want to work on your self-esteem and sense of self? Do you want to learn how to let go, have fun, and live in the moment? Do you want to get more in touch with your playful and creative inner child? Does the idea of doing improv comedy make you feel nervous, but you’re intrigued? Do you like to laugh? Within a small, supportive group of 4-7 people that meets for eight weeks, you will learn how to be more compassionate towards yourself so that you can feel calmer and more connected to other people, more often! You will practice your self-compassion skills in real-time through tailored improv comedy exercises that are designed to support you on the path toward increasing your self-acceptance and self-confidence. At its core, improv comedy helps you to take risks, make mistakes, and not take yourself so seriously. We will laugh a lot : ) Past clients have said… “I always felt nervous to go, but felt like something had been released after each session." “I love the space to talk about what we are dealing with. I have never been actually excited to go to therapy until finding this group.” "The play and improv was beneficial for my perfectionism because I got to experience just diving into things." "I loved connecting with people who I felt really understood me.” “I am forever changed!”

Hi! I’m so glad you’re here. For the “weirdos,” “misfits,” seekers and dreamers. The people who find solace in books, music, and intimate conversations. Who deeply feel there is something more or a better world possible. For people who feel both at home and alone in solitude. You’re not wrong for holding contradictions and it makes sense if the world feels at times both too heavy to bear and so full of magic and wonder. I invite you into this space to get more in touch with your feeling, expressive and creative self. As we grow, it can feel that the world gnaws away at the things that make us human. It asks us to hide parts of ourselves in order to find belonging and we may find ourselves feeling more disconnected from who we are, the people around us and the world. This space is one of uncovering, where we will get to be in relationship to all parts of you. I will be with you as you gain clarity around your own wisdom and knowing; and I will always sit with you through discomfort, dis-ease, celebration and joy. I work from modalities and techniques that are rooted in story telling and visualization (IFS), body based awareness (Somatic) and universal human experiences (Existential).
I work with college-aged individuals and young adults, who are stepping into adulthood. You might be adjusting to college, starting your first career, or learning how to navigate changing relationships with family, friends, or romantic partners.

My approach combines evidenced-based trauma-informed models, including strength-based, skills training, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing. I have experience working with young adults from diverse backgrounds and am committed to creating an inclusive, non-judgmental space for clients of all genders, sexual orientation, cultural group, or belief system. I offer a free 15-minute consultation to help you decide whether my therapeutic approach aligns with your needs. I look forward to meeting you

Healing is a deeply personal journey, and having the right support can make all the difference. As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with eight years of experience in mental health settings, my work centers on helping children and adults from all walks of life navigate mood, anxiety, neurodevelopmental, and trauma-related disorders with skill, compassion, and care. Whether you're seeking medication management, psychotherapy, or a thoughtful combination of both, you can expect a partner who is committed to helping you feel seen, understood, and valued every step of the way. Whatever brings you here, you deserve care that honors your full story. From the moment we begin working together, you can expect a space that is warm, respectful, and completely free of judgment. Creating an authentic and relaxed environment where you feel safe to show up as you are is something I'm deeply committed to. My approach is evidence-based and patient-centered, shaped by a genuine belief in your innate resilience and strength. Sessions are collaborative by design, and the direction of our work is guided by your unique goals, life experiences, and the parts of your identity that matter most to you. No two people are alike, and treatment should reflect that. Together, we'll tailor a path that supports you in living a life that feels genuinely fulfilling. The path that led me to psychiatric nursing began early in my career, when I recognized how often mental health concerns were treated as secondary to physical ones. That realization sparked a lasting commitment to whole-person care that honors the deep connection between mind and body by empowering patients to reach their highest potential. Bringing a holistic perspective to every session means looking beyond symptoms and considering the full picture of who you are and what you need. Your mental and physical health are not separate, and the care you receive should reflect that. Outside of the office, you'll find me spending time with family and friends, hiking or simply being in nature, and staying active through exercise. My Pomeranians keep life wonderfully entertaining, and I love exploring new restaurants and traveling whenever I can. Cooking is another favorite, whether it's recreating a dish from a recent trip or testing something entirely new in the kitchen.
I specialize in working with individuals struggling with weight loss and weight management.

I also am a Certified Insomnia Treatment Clinician and offer 6-week online group treatment programs for insomnia!
