Counseling for Individuals in Lakewood, CO and Online

Not at all! Many of our clients are "high-functioning" and holding it together externally but struggling internally. Counseling is for anyone who wants to understand themselves, feel more grounded, and grow. The notion of "mental illness" is deeply rooted in the medical model and managed care (i.e. insurance companies). While we value a scientific approach and shared language of what certain symptoms together may mean, we see problems in a very different way. In our experience, most people are just doing the best they can inside their own worlds and relationships. Symptoms are most often the result of stuck relational patterns, the way our nervous systems learned to adapt to and survive past experiences, and the systems we interact with daily at work, socially, and even politically. This is why we treat the "heart of the matter" over symptom relief alone. This approach is what leads to true change that lasts.

Timing depends on your goals and the type of therapy approaches we take based on your needs. We pride ourselves on being trained and highly skilled in approaches that are based on neuroscience for efficiency and effectiveness. Our clients often report feeling better as early as the second or third session and continue to improve. That said, therapy has its hard days, so you can expect ups and downs. Either way, we are here to support you and strive to ensure you get what you came to us for!
