Therapists for college students near Denver, CO

You have the weight of the world on your shoulders, and have for a very long time. As a child, you had to grow up quickly and take on adult roles, because you had a parent who wasn’t always able to be fully present. Overwhelming emotional pain weighs on you. And you’ve found that the emotional pain shows up as physical pain too - a literal heartache, muscle aches, or back pain. You’ve also lost your appetite or find yourself eating more than usual. You went through something horrific. And you thought you had dealt with it, you thought you could handle it on your own, but it keeps popping its pesky little head up in your current life and relationships. Speaking of which, you have a history of unsuccessful relationships. You long for closeness and intimacy - being validated, loved, and understood - but you can’t seem to avoid toxic people and/or sabotaging the good relationships because when there’s love and harmony you’re waiting for the other shoe to drop. Sometimes as a result of the way you’ve been treated, you question your own worth and value. You worry that your life will never be the same. The fear gnaws at you sometimes that maybe you will never get out from under this boulder of responsibility and heartache on your shoulders. You worry you will never be free. Like my clients, you deserve to find your footing, and discover healing and meaning in life again. Making a full recovery is not out of reach. If you want to not just move on, but move forward, I’d love to help you get there.

I work with adolescents, young adults and adults who are looking to better understand themselves and create a more meaningful, connected life. I support clients navigating a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, identity development, and relational challenges. My style is warm, open, and curious, and I strive to create a supportive space where we can explore what matters most to you. Together, we’ll tailor therapy to your unique values, goals, and lived experiences—especially in the areas where you feel stuck or uncertain. I bring over a decade of experience providing therapy that is collaborative, culturally responsive, and tailored to the unique needs of each person. My training is integrative—I draw from psychodynamic, relational, and behavioral approaches to support meaningful and lasting growth. Finding a therapist who feels like the right fit can be one of the hardest—and most important—steps in starting therapy. If you’re curious about working together, I’d love to offer a free phone consultation to learn more about what you’re looking for, answer any questions you might have, and talk about how I can support you in your therapy journey. Feel free to outreach me or schedule a consultation at https://drlindseyharcus.sessionshealth.com/.

As a compassionate therapist for individuals, couples, and families, I help diverse populations navigate anxiety, depression, attachment and relational issues, identity exploration, difficult emotions, problematic behaviors, neurodivergence, communication challenges, trauma, LGBTQIA+ issues, social isolation, self-esteem, grief and loss, substance use disorders, and eating disorders. Throughout my sessions, I take a panoramic view of the biological, psychological, social, environmental, and spiritual contexts in which each individual exists, helping to unpack internal and external barriers to wellbeing. When appropriate, I also love to explore the role of humor and creative self-expression in healing. I believe in prioritizing humility, shared power, and curiosity at all times, which allows me to be a supportive partner in discovering each person’s inner wisdom and lived contexts that guide the work. I look forward to partnering with you in this next stage of your growth journey. I specialize in systemic therapy and helping folks deepen their relationships with themselves, which often renders deeper and more authentic relationships with others. My approach is trauma-informed, holistic, and affirming, reflecting my passion for making mental health care more accessible and collaborating with each person to help them find greater joy, meaning, insight, and expansiveness, whether life feels full of tidal waves or, at times, far too still. In our work together, I strive to create a warm and empathetic space in which all patients feel truly safe, heard, and supported. Rather than aiming to “fix,” my goal is to help you access and build upon your inherent worth and the strengths you already have. This is achieved through a creative, integrative, and fluid therapeutic style based on your needs, though I lean toward an attachment-focused, psychodynamic lens. I draw heavily from narrative therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), somatic interventions, and mindfulness, but also use Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solutions-Focused Therapy, and other modalities to help you come home to yourself, find clarity and connection, and develop healthier habits. My path to becoming a therapist is informed by my own mental health journey, in addition to my lifelong interests in human connection and development, psychology, and service. After seeking treatment in my early twenties, I then intensively studied yoga and developed a greater understanding for the connection between mind, body, and spirit. Though I've lived and worked in many settings, with diverse populations, my experience as a poet in writing workshops allowed me to see the great value in creative self-exploration and expression. Being in shared spaces with others as we grappled with the deepest pockets of our hearts and minds deepened my desire to help others find themselves, find healing, and find connection. In my therapeutic practice now, I bring an open mind and careful attention to each session, believing that a foundation of trust and respect is key to the therapeutic process. Outside of work, I like to keep my body and mind active by distance running, skiing, and practicing yoga. I feel most myself when I'm outside, exploring nature, seeing live music, or sitting somewhere peaceful and writing poetry or devouring a good book. I'm also a massive word game enthusiast and jigsaw puzzler, and love to challenge my perfectionism and get creative in the kitchen. Nothing makes me happier than sharing delicious food and laughter with loved ones!

Hello! I work with individuals with a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, and relationship challenges. Feel free to reach out for a free consultation dr.lesliehannon@gmail.com or 720.560.4016.

As a person of color with three years of experience providing therapy in private practice and community mental health settings, I help underserved communities and beyond navigate life transitions, relationship issues, identity issues, self-esteem, and stress management, with a focus on youth, adolescents, and young adults. Bringing compassion and inclusivity to my work allows me to be a supportive partner to every patient I work with. I look forward to deepening our understanding, together with you, of how our emotions, thoughts, and feelings shape who we are today. Authenticity, collaboration, and inclusivity are at the heart of how I work. As a social worker specializing in play therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and person-centered care, I'm passionate about advocating for your needs while helping you build the coping skills to meet them. In session, I bring an open mind and use CBT and DBT to help you understand your emotions and feelings, and work through unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. This style is holistic, and tailored to your unique goals and needs at all times. My path to becoming a therapist began with aiding foster care youth, and eventually youth and adolescents in private practice settings, during my internship experiences in graduate school. Born and raised in Colorado, I have always been around young people, growing up volunteering in community settings and helping care for younger siblings and family. These experiences deepened my commitment to providing respectful, caring support that meets each patient's needs, and it's what led me to want to continue bringing mental health awareness to all walks of life. I bring that same open-mindedness and kindness to each session with you. Pickleball and tennis with friends are some of my favorite ways to unwind. I also enjoy trying new restaurants and coffee or boba shops with loved ones, going to concerts, shopping, gaming, and exploring everything my home state of Colorado has to offer. And a good karaoke night with friends or family is always a win!

As a strength-based, relational Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) specializing in interpersonal, mental, and physical trauma for adults, I help you navigate challenges in communication, advocate for your needs, and grieve how trauma has altered your life, often without your consent. My approach centers on nuanced, culture-specific intervention so you can build safety and stability. Trauma work is a particular focus of mine, and I also have a passion for working with people who have Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Accountability and autonomy are things I believe in deeply, and they shape how I show up for you as your therapist. I look forward to collaborating with you and creating safety in our work together. Establishing a safe, nonjudgmental space to create connection is where my approach begins. You can expect an honest, calm environment as we work together, as I am passionate about how our brains and bodies work to keep us safe, even when that instinct doesn’t always serve us in the way we need. I use person-centered therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as my main methods, helping you create comfort and stability within yourself, accept what you cannot change, and take ownership of what you can influence. My style is adaptive, and I tailor my approach to your unique experiences and needs. My path to becoming a therapist began with a desire to build my emotional intelligence and challenge my internalized biases, trauma, and feelings of inauthenticity. During my journey of self-discovery, I fell in love with psychology, the human brain, and providing a safe space for others to rediscover their own internal sense of self-worth and value. This love developed even further after my own diagnosis of OCD, which greatly impacted my ability to be present in my own life, and after meeting several professionals who met my anxiety and distress head-on while still being compassionate and kind. These experiences deepened my desire to provide evidence-based care rooted in unflinching understanding. I blend science and empathy into each session, offering reasons why humans act the way they do alongside compassion for how distressing this can feel, especially when autonomy has been stripped away by others, life, or a mental health diagnosis of their own. I love reading, playing video games, and spending time with my puppy. I also enjoy growing flowering plants and painting my nails, two hobbies that don't always mix well, plus crocheting whenever I have the time.

In the therapy room, I ground my practice in integrity, responsibility, justice, and respect. I believe in equality within the therapeutic relationship and strive to empower clients to maintain an active role in their healing. I also highly value creativity and openness, and enjoy personalizing therapeutic work to each individual’s unique needs. Additionally, wellness, growth, and lifelong learning are central values that guide both my personal and professional life. I believe in treating the whole person—mind, body, and behavior—and in co-creating treatment plans that reflect each client’s unique experiences, values, and goals. I work with teens, adults, and couples, and I am especially passionate about supporting individuals navigating trauma, anger, serious mental illness, depression, and chronic pain. At the heart of my work is the belief that we are all doing the best we can with what we have—and that growth, change, and healing are always possible. In the therapy room, I strive to create a calm, supportive, and collaborative space where clients feel seen and empowered. I value creativity, humor, and openness; and I love celebrating growth!

Wonton (Professionally trained Therapy Dog) & I are so excited you've found us! Are you curious about Animal-Assisted Therapy & connecting with an enthusiastic, loving, compassionate, 8-year-old, yellow lab? It can feel really isolating to struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and/or addiction. On top of that, it can be challenging to connect with people who understand that experience without judgement & can offer appropriate support. Therapy Dogs offer a very unique type of support for mental health: nervous system regulation, somatic processing, grounding skills, relationship skills, general improvements in mood, etc. Wonton & I have been a partnered therapy team since 2018 & we offer a warm, non-judgmental approach to facilitate the challenging work of therapy. We utilize a combination of therapeutic modalities such as Animal-Assisted Therapy, along with CBT, DBT, ACT, Trauma-Focused, & Solution-Focused specialties to support young adults/adults. After my family experienced something traumatic and we went through our own grief and healing journey (ongoing), this experience helped me to relate to a broader range of folks who were also hurting. I became a mental health professional because I love connecting with people and want to help them navigate unique and challenging circumstances. I am passionate about partnering with people who are choosing change and healing in order to discover more about themselves, grow, improve their quality of life and relationships with others. Prior to working in the mental health field, I worked as an Administrative Personnel at a University in Colorado for over 10 years and supported undergraduate and graduate students which allowed me opportunities to witness the unique challenges that students experience. If you are struggling with the stress of meeting new expectations, adjusting to college environments, managing your course load along with other adult responsibilities, trying to find your identity as a young adult, struggling in your relationships, having homesickness, and/or managing an illness(es), then you are not alone in this experience. If you are ready to choose change & healing in order to discover more about yourself, grow, & improve your quality of life & relationships with others, then Wonton & I would love an opportunity to connect & partner with you!

Hello! Thank you for considerning my practice. I am a licensed professional counselor and board certified art therapist. I have worked in the field of mental health for over 25 years. My focus in every session is to provide the therapeutic space for each person to unravel the things that keep them from living their best life. This is a safe space in which to explore unresolved feelings, consider strengths and challenges, examine internal conflicts, receive support and be heard. The clients I work best with understand that therapy is the process of healing the self from wounds that have effected sense of self and ideas of self. Therapy, as we will see, is a depth process and can employ imagery and art making to further that understanding. I do not do much cognitive behavioural intervention, nor worksheet types of therapy. This is process oriented reflective work.

I help diverse populations, including individuals, families, and couples, navigate relationship challenges, trauma, addiction, self-esteem, and emotional struggles.

Working together, you are empowered to start putting the pieces together in a collaborative and welcoming space, with therapy tailored to your unique story, values, and goals. I use emotionally focused and integrative approaches to help you feel safer, more connected, and more confident. After years working in higher education, and having lost people in my community to addiction, I felt called to help people more deeply, especially communities facing barriers, so they can heal and reach their full potential. I’ve seen firsthand the cultural and religious stigma around mental health, and I wanted to help people feel less alone and more willing to seek support. I continue to believe therapy can be preventive, not just a last resort, and am dedicated to being a source of safety and hope for those in need. I enjoy activities that allow me to connect with others, explore new places, and stay active and balanced. That’s why you’ll often find me in the great outdoors going on hikes and hitting the ski trails or cozied up at home baking and practicing yoga. I also love spending time with family and friends and traveling to new states and countries.
