Therapists for college students near 80309

I have been a School Counselor for 16 years and because of this I have worked with people dealing with many different things. I have an office and I can work with you in my office but I happy to meet with you anywhere.

Life can often present us with challenges that leave us feeling not like ourselves. Many of us seek to deepen connections to feel a sense of peace, wellness, and fulfillment in our lives, but don't know where to begin. I offer a holistic approach to therapy using evidence based practices, somatic/body techniques, mindfulness/meditation, & family systems techniques within an attachment framework. If you are experiencing changes/transitions, have concerns about self-esteem and identity, or experience stress, anxiety, depression or trauma, let's work together to provide you a space to process your experiences and sense of relief. I offer telehealth, office, and nature based sessions. The outdoors can offer a place of healing and rejuvenation. My practice utilizes nature to enhance the healing impacts of traditional talk therapy. I offer a walk-and-talk model that combines the freeing element of being outdoors with psychotherapy. Movement in the outdoors gives us the ability to access our emotions and process our experiences while feeling grounded and attuned to the moment. This can be a new and inspiring experience for those who have tried traditional office-based therapy and felt they needed something different or more dynamic.

Feeling ready to dive deep into what’s holding you back? I offer telehealth sessions for clients who want a supportive and insightful space to navigate life’s challenges. Together, we’ll focus on healing pain—old and new—while building skills in communication, coping.. Therapy can be a powerful path to growth, clarity, and a more fulfilling life. If you’re motivated to explore and transform, I’m here to guide you.

I am a mental health and addiction counselor who has experienced the impact of mental health issues on myself, my family, my friends, and my community. I understand the importance of a safe, nonjudgmental space for exploration, introspection, and healing. I enjoy using creative modalities in conjunction with traditional theoretical frameworks to allow clients to explore challenges and questions from multiple perspectives. I bring experience, compassion, and advocacy to mental health, addiction, and recovery. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults. I use a sense of curiosity and the gifts my spiritual and scholastic mentors have given me to help guide my clients on their journey of discovery. A current curiosity has led me to an increased understanding of the neuroscience behind addiction and how the mind interacts with our bodies and the world around us. I believe everyone has a chance at discovering themselves and finding a fulfilling path in life no matter what your background. If you want to discover your true self, build coping skills to help with sobriety, depression, or anxiety, or if you need help processing trauma, please reach out for a free initial consultation.

Life has been so unpredictable these days. The constant ups, downs, and changes make us feel so depleted and uncertain. No matter how hard you try, it's like you can never regain your footing and are constantly stumbling along. You're not sure which way you are headed and you just want some clarity and direction. You want a space you can go to think through your thoughts and finally take a deep cleansing breath. Let's take that breath together and begin the process of finding your footing again. Based on my years of training, experience, and skills, I believe that the path to healing begins with you, your unique journey through life, and unbecoming parts that no longer serve you. In our work, I will walk with you through this healing journey to find who you are meant to become on the other side. It's time for you to take that deep breath and begin moving one foot in front of the other. You have struggled to find your direction long enough. Let's work together to find your footing again, and get back on your journey through life.

About My Clients My clients bring their strengths, lived experiences, and wisdom to our therapy sessions every day. They bring resilience from the traumatic experiences they face and many of my clients bring and/or discuss the ways relationships impact their day to day lives. My Approach to Helping As a social worker, marriage and family therapist in training, and educator I value and center the wisdom that clients bring into the therapeutic conversation. My values also lie heavily in centering and validating the experiences of my clients from an inclusive perspective. My goal is to balance trusting the client to make the best decisions for themselves and create space for collaboration in the therapeutic process. Whether it is Individual, Couples Therapy, or Family Therapy, I believe that therapeutic interventions are tools that support the relationships, not replace them! Being a woman of color in the field of mental health guides and builds empathy in my work. I believe in creating a comfortable and supportive environment that encourages trust-building and playfulness when appropriate. I approach my work through meeting my clients where they are and creating customized clinical experiences based on the needs of my clients.

If you have ever felt like you are going to crawl out of your skin, if you feel isolated, depressed, anxious and hopeless you have come to the right person and place. You are stronger and more resilient than you know. I am a Solution Focused strength-based therapist who believes moving forward is the direction we want to go. Counseling often involves re-sculpting of our mind and behavior into healthier modes of being. We must allow ourselves the grace and openness to recognize and embrace our full potential. Come along, and together, let's navigate the path of new beginnings and tap into the awesomeness that is you. I believe people are inherently good. Because of our uniqueness, I believe that there is no one size fits all approach to counseling as everyone experiences depression, anxiety, anger, grief, or trauma in their way. I look forward to working with you. I have the flexibility to meet in person or online.

"I am falling apart on the inside. "This world wasn't built for me." "I am always overwhelmed all the time." "My best never feels good enough." If these thoughts have crossed your mind, I promise you aren’t alone. I hear you, and I want to help. I believe therapy doesn’t happen in a vacuum — our lives are shaped by systems, cultures, and histories that can both support and harm us. In our work together, we’ll look not only at your personal experiences but also at the broader context you live in. My goal is to honor your identity, acknowledge the impact of oppression and marginalization, and create a space where all parts of you feel seen and valued. I draw from person-centered, narrative, existential, and ACT, IFS-informed parts work, and emotionally focused therapy (EFT) approaches, always centering you as the expert in your own life. Together, we’ll explore your story, build on your strengths, and work toward the changes that feel most meaningful to you.

I am an outpatient, private practice clinician. I work with anxiety, depression, substance use, and trauma. Or, if you’re looking for someone to talk with but you’re not sure why, give me a call.

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
