Originally from Chicago, I moved to Colorado to pursue my Master’s at the University of Denver, which confirmed my passion for social work. Before opening my private practice, I worked extensively with survivors of intimate partner abuse, individuals in recovery and couples in crisis. This experience provided me with deep expertise in attachment therapy and reinforced the vital importance of trauma-informed care. My background has shaped a clinical approach rooted in curiosity and a drive to understand the motivations behind actions. This perspective allows me to serve my clients through relational lens, focusing on meaningful connection and growth. If you choose to work with me, you will find a collaborative environment defined by non-judgment and openness. Regardless of your goals, your identities, or where you are in your journey, it would be my honor to support you and your loved ones. I look forward to being your advocate as we work together to reach your goals.

I want you to feel like you can be your best self every day and feel comfortable in your own skin whether your in class, among friends, at home, or in your studio. We can come up with a plan to meet your goals and identify tools and explore ways to help you be the wonderful, creative, and joyful person you're meant to be.

Transitions, even positive ones, often bring up feelings of being out of control. We are more likely to turn on auto pilot and rely on behaviors that don't really promote our own wellbeing. I really enjoy working with folks navigating these stages of life and truly finding peace in riding the waves of life. I have specialized training in disordered eating, anxiety and trauma. I utilize EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral therapy most often in my practice. The most important thing for me is for my client to feel connected and safe exploring their relationship with emotions within the therapeutic relationship. Whether you are totally new to therapy or are just coming back, I meet all my clients wherever they are. You don't need to be ready to make changes to start the process!

We are a group of therapists in Denver who have a passion for helping young adults live their best lives. We provide a safe space to process past trauma and current life events in order to learn from them and figure out how to heal and avoid toxic patterns moving forward. We believe that therapy works best when it involves back and forth conversation and active involvement on our part. We aim to be warm, funny, empathetic, and create a strong relationship where there are no "off limit" topics.

Therapy can help you get untangled from old stories, old ways of being that are sabotaging you from living a life you love. You give so much of yourself to others, leaving you feeling depleted and empty inside. You stay busy. You keep caring, doing, and giving to others believing that how you show up for others will make you feel like enough. But it hasn’t, instead there is an urge to distract, stay busy and avoid your self. Believing ‘If I focus on others or on tasks things will get better. I will eventually give enough or do enough to be happy with myself.’ But when will time alone ever feel okay, comfortable, or safe? My professional training and life experiences have led to my empowering focused approach to therapy to help my clients as they navigate these challenges. I help my clients overcome narrations and self-sabotaging beliefs that are leaving them stuck in the same cycle to create a balancing and rewarding life where they realize their own worth. If you are ready to take the next step I offer free 15-minute phone consults where we can find out if I am the therapist who is the right fit for you and your needs. If you are not ready for a phone consult, I invite you to browse my website to get to know me more through there and I hope to chat with you soon.

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.

Here's the complete text, in full: Hi, I'm Sammi, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Colorado, working with young adults and adults navigating life transitions, anxiety, and the exhaustion of holding it all together. My work is grounded in nervous system and somatic awareness as the foundation, with EMDR at the heart of how I help people move past what talk alone hasn't shifted, alongside IFS-informed parts work layered in as a complement. I hold a simple belief: nothing about you needs fixing here, rather a returning to yourself, guided by curiosity rather than certainty. Sessions are collaborative and paced with intention, oriented to the nervous system throughout, following the thread back toward what got buried under all that holding, and building the safety that real change actually stands on. I work well with people who hold real self-awareness and are ready to close the gap between knowing and living, ready to move insight into real, sustainable change. Whether you're navigating anxiety, a major transition, or a quiet disconnection from yourself, this is a space to slow down rather than push harder. I offer virtual sessions across Colorado, accept several insurance plans, and also offer self-pay. Guided by curiosity. Rooted in the body. Here for the long way home.

Hello! I'm Whitney, the licensed therapist at The Grove. In short, I help women who are struggling with overwhelm, loneliness, the stress of life and trauma using the gold standards of psychotherapy today. Everything from thought work and coaching to EMDR to psychedelic integration work. I don't take insurance but try to work with all interested clients in finding a fee that works for them. It's a big step, starting therapy. And I'd love to be a resource to anyone looking to begin that journey.

I believe that therapy is a unique experience that provides a safe place to assist in acknowledging resiliency, providing hope and cultivating healing and growth within individuals and interpersonal relationships. All clients come in with their own personality, strengths, struggles, and differing walks of life. In order to match this, I operate from a person-centered approach and emphasize each individual’s strengths to empower and challenge them to grow while assisting in defining their own goals and successes. While I have experience in working with individuals, couples and families, I have found that my passion lies within helping adolescents and young adults navigate the challenges that naturally come along with this exciting, yet stressful season of life. As many clients come to therapy not of their own choosing or with skepticism, I place emphasis on building a therapeutic relationship with validation, trust, accountability, candid feedback and a little bit of humor as needed! Enough about me, I can't wait to learn more about you! -Ashley

It is an honor and an inspiration to witness a person’s growth. Being a part of that transformation is my passion and my life’s work. I am a transpersonal therapist, meaning that I hold a person’s emotional journey within the larger context of their overall spiritual path. Transpersonal psychotherapy is unique from traditional psychotherapy in that it views a person as a spiritual being who is having a human experience. From that perspective, the process of developing self-awareness is a remembering of the essential nature. Expanding one’s consciousness becomes a sacred unfoldment through which we begin to create ourselves and our lives intentionally. Through a delicate balance of self-love and self-honesty, we can begin to discern the persona we have created from the essence of who we are. As the ego, or personality, becomes increasingly easy to identify, we are able to recognize and resist its programming and begin taking ownership of our choices. Trying to control our external reality is exhausting and ultimately impossible, but our inner reality can be entirely of our choosing. True freedom and security is cultivated within and brings an unshakeable sense of peace to even life’s roughest waters.

Hey! My name is Erin Zabel and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate with five years experience in the mental health field. I became interested in psychology around the age of ten when a key individual in my life suddenly passed away. I learned firsthand the effects of grief and loss, and how to persevere through the emotional rollercoaster. I am a compassionate, empathetic professional who strives to provide those with a safe space to share their vulnerabilities. I don’t believe there is a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy, therefore I cater to what is most suitable for the client. I tend to work with adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, grief and loss, trauma, and interpersonal conflict; to name a few. Please feel free to reach out if you’re struggling with any of these, and we can work together towards a life of relief, acceptance and freedom!
