Sometimes we face challenges that seem insurmountable, leaving us feeling stuck and hopeless. Therapy can provide the support necessary to overcome hardship and help us take steps toward happiness and fulfillment. As your therapist, I believe that you have the resiliency required to overcome life's toughest challenges. No one should have to trudge alone through trying times. I look forward to walking with you on your journey! I specialize in grief and loss counseling, but also help individuals cope with and manage depression, anxiety, mood swings, self-esteem, and relationship issues. I use a variety of creative trauma-informed techniques to tap into your innate strengths, develop solutions, and make moves toward the summit of well-being. My main clientele are teens and young adults, and I truly enjoy working with these populations! Along with traditional talk therapy I use art, play, visual journaling, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients get "unstuck" and feel in charge of their emotions and their lives.
Hello! I am a clinical psychologist specializing in supporting individuals and couples who want to better understand themselves, how they relate to others and all of life. My style is warm, active, and genuine. I strongly believe in the importance of building an authentic and trusting relationship for therapy to be effective. I work from a relational framework, also drawing from my training in attachment theory, mindfulness, third-wave cognitive-behavioral (ACT, DBT) and interpersonal therapies. My approach is always grounded in compassion and curiosity for how my clients experience themselves and the world. I am a California native and completed my graduate education through Stanford before moving to Colorado in 2020. I worked in university counseling for two years as a predoctoral intern and postdoctoral fellow at CU Boulder’s Counseling and Psychiatric Services and love working with students in my private practice. I address a wide range of concerns, most commonly including relationship difficulties, existential issues, anxiety, and depression. As a first-generation immigrant, I am particularly fascinated by the impact of culture on identity and relationships. While challenging at times, I believe therapy can be extremely rewarding and even fun – humor is healing, and I laugh with my clients often! I currently have in-person availability on Mondays and Tuesdays in Denver and throughout the week virtually.

Finding ourselves stuck in problems that we can't seem to figure out isn't uncommon and asking for help isn't easy, but it is a brave first step. My hope is that once I have the opportunity to get to know you and your unique experiences, I can help you to develop the skills to manage life's challenges in a way that you can be proud of. I have worked with children, families and adults and tailor my practice to the individuals I serve. I strive to create a space that is safe, non-judgemental and considers the complexity of your life. My past work has been with individuals of all ages who have experienced complex trauma and the resulting depression, anxiety, anger, fear, shame and grief. I strive to create a safe and anti-oppressive practice that respects, validates and affirms individual racial, ethnic, religious, spiritual, gender and sexual identities. I believe that people are meant to live in relationship, but that often we get stuck in negative cycles of relating to ourselves, others and the world that keep us from growth and joy. In my own life, I have worked and continue to work to break down these things for myself, and I am honored to join others in their work to do the same. :)
I am a licensed clinical and school psychologist who has close to 30 years of experience working with clients of all ages. My areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress management, school and learning problems, family conflict, and relationship problems. I see every client as unique and tailor treatment to fit the needs of each individual. My approach is collaborative and eclectic. I integrate a variety of therapeutic techniques into treatment including Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, and Expressive Arts.
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!

You worry about everything- literally everything. You toss and turn at night, waking up exhausted, and unprepared to start the day. It is like you are on auto pilot- just going through the motions. You are constantly in your head, unable to enjoy the present, and time with friends. You feel anxious and on edge most of the time, you wish you could just relax. Others see you as someone who has it all together, without a care in the world- how little they know. Let’s face it, you hide the worry and anxiety well. But lately, it has been getting harder to manage. The anxiety you continuously try to bury, is creeping its way up, and you are feeling overwhelmed. You have been contemplating therapy for so long, not sure if it will even help. But you’re ready now, you know things need to change, and you can’t go through life like this much longer. Now imagine... Imagine being able to finally be present in your everyday life, and actually enjoy your time with family and friends. Imagine finally being able to relax and sleep. Imagine waking up energized and ready to start the day. You’re ready to take the driver’s seat, and no longer allow anxiety and worry to take control. And I can help. I am trained in EMDR and DBT and specialize in helping people like you who struggle with excessive worry. I am a Christian and offer faith-based counseling for those seeking it. However, I work with people no matter their religious affiliation or lack of one. I provide only online counseling. It is time to cross off “find a therapist” from your to-do list. I look forward to hearing from you.
I know firsthand how challenging it can be to navigate identity, especially when you’re facing external pressures or complicated family dynamics.

Gertie Breffle MA, LPC Sessions with me take on a mentor, down to earth, gritty feel. I believe in the therapeutic relationship being a human to human relationship and within that context I facilitate the healing process within clients as a collaborative effort. My orientation is using the body’s and nervous system’s natural capacities for healing along with human relationship to engage in the healing process. Using techniques and practices from the latest trauma research as well as attachment frame working, I help clients learn to use body/mind practices as well as attachment work to heal and strengthen relationships with self and others, and to heal the nervous system in addressing concerns with trauma, anxiety, depression, addictions, and relationships. I use a combination of techniques and practices from the latest trauma researchers, as well as EMDR, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Multi-systemic Family Therapy, and mindfulness practices. I facilitate strengthening and healing relationships with self and others within the contexts of individual therapy, couples therapy, and family therapy.

Much of my work focuses on removing emotional and psychological barriers that keep people from expressing and enjoying who they truly are. Expect to discover or remember aspects of yourself that thrive in authentic relationships and meaningful pursuits.
Finding a therapist can feel overwhelming. Between the jargon and endless options, it’s easy to feel stuck. I'm here to make the process easier. Many of my clients come to me feeling weighed down by anxiety, self-doubt, or pressure to “get it right.” They often struggle with body image, self-worth, or the persistent sense that they’re not enough. As a trauma-informed therapist, I help clients build confidence, strengthen emotional connections, and feel more aligned in their lives and relationships. Together, we’ll work on breaking old patterns and creating a stronger, more authentic sense of self.
My therapeutic approach is insight-oriented, relational, and collaborative. I work with adults, couples, and adolescents to make meaningful changes in their lives. Together, we will take the time to get to the heart of your story and uncover deep-rooted emotional patterns. I specialize in anxiety, depression, identity issues, relationship issues, and self-esteem. I use psychodynamic theory to explore how our early experiences impact our current functioning, and I see the therapeutic relationship as a corrective experience to heal our early attachment wounds. In our work together, I will gently challenge you to say the unsayable, learn to trust yourself, get out of your own way, and discover new ways to relate to yourself and others. I am a Licensed Social Worker in private practice in Denver, Colorado. I earned my Masters in Social Work with a concentration in Family Systems as well as a post-graduate certificate in trauma therapy from the University of Denver Graduate School of Social Work. I also completed a post-graduate program in Marriage and Family therapy at Denver Family Institute.
