Therapists for college students near University of Colorado Boulder

I often work with students who are dealing with anxiety, school stress, family conflict, or feeling overwhelmed by expectations. You might feel like you’re trying to keep everything together while struggling on the inside. In therapy, we’ll slow things down, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and develop skills that help you feel more grounded in yourself and supported in life. I also encourage parent coaching sessions to help caregivers learn tools to better support their child’s emotional growth.

Fundamentally, my aim is to support my clients in contacting their inner self-knowing, and "make friends" with all of the various parts of themselves in the warmth and security of this inner space. To achieve this, I practice person-centered therapy, with a strong emphasis on somatic awareness. When working with clients, I am listening for "what wants to be heard" that day. In my view, I am a supportive and curious observer, and my job is to reflect back to my client what I am seeing. My style tends to be more direct, and I regularly encourage my clients to take ownership over their treatment and to trust themselves. In a first session with me, we explore where you've been, where you are, and where you would like to go. Often, I invite people to tell me their story and then describe their current situation. We will work together to assess what feels like the most supportive areas of focus, and will create some goals which guide our future sessions. During this process, however, you can still expect curiousity, empowerment, and validation. What's most important in any session is establishing a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship.

Everyone deserves a space where they can feel safe, accepted, and truly heard—especially when life gets confusing or tough. My goal is to be that space for you, where we can talk through what’s on your mind and help you feel more in control. I work alongside my mini golden doodle, Ellie, who adds to the calm and comforting environment during our sessions. If you’re dealing with overwhelming challenges, whether from past experiences or current pressures, I’m here to help you make sense of it all. This is a place where you can be your authentic self, knowing you won’t be judged. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on in your life and work through it in a way that feels supportive and healing. We’ll also focus on practical ways to handle stress, discover what makes you unique, and develop skills to make life feel more manageable. You don’t need to have it all figured out right now—if you’re ready to explore who you are and find new ways to navigate life’s challenges, I’m here to help you every step of the way.

Are you ready to see the world and yourself through a lens of authenticity, love, and acceptance? Are you ready to deepen your relationship with yourself and be “Authentically Me?” As a licensed professional counselor, I specialize in trauma treatment and PTSD, perinatal mental health, and child and family therapy.

My expertise is in EMDR therapy although will often incorporate interventions such as somatic work, mindfulness practices, attachment theory, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, parts work, and polyvagal theory. I offer an intuitive approach to therapy drawing on my experiences as a counselor, yoga teacher, educator, and parent. I recognize the importance of conversation and connection and welcome inquires and questions regarding my practice to determine if we are a good fit. I’m honored to have crossed paths with you and look forward to supporting you on your journey of becoming “Authentically Me!”

I'm Julie TenBrook, PHMNP. I'm the owner of Open Minds. Open Minds symbolizes acceptance, on my part, of who you are without judgement. It, also, symbolizes the opening of your mind to change and healing. Being in college is a time of rapid growth. This can be hard. Figuring out how to navigate school, new relationships, new routines and define who you are as a young adult can be stressful. If you are feeling stressed, overwhelmed, and anxious, I can help. Treatment is tailored to what you need. It is usually multi-modal and not "just" medications or "just" therapy. Everyone's needs are different and we can design a treatment plan that fits you.

Welcome! I’m Lindsay Pierce. I’m passionate about creating a down-to-earth, genuinely welcoming space for college students. With over 10 years of experience supporting students across Colorado, I focus on making therapy approachable and helpful—no judgment, just real talk. Feeling stressed, stuck, burned out, or just a little off? Whether you're navigating a major transition, dealing with anxiety or depression, unpacking past trauma, or learning what it means to be neurodivergent, I’m here to walk alongside you. My goal is to offer a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported. Located in the Denver metro area? Let’s take a walk—and talk. My Walk & Talk therapy option brings us outside, letting you move and breathe fresh air as part of the healing process—perfect for anyone who feels more at ease on the move.

Life rarely moves in a straight path, and the transitions, pressures, and losses that come with it can leave you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself. As a clinical social worker and therapist, helping people navigate the challenges that arise throughout adulthood is work I find deeply meaningful. Whether you're managing the weight of a major life change, working through strained relationships, struggling with work-life balance, facing caregiver stress, or searching for a renewed sense of purpose, you don't have to navigate it alone. These experiences can stir up anxiety, sadness, frustration, guilt, isolation, or hopelessness, and that's exactly where meaningful support can make a difference. Together, we work to transform those challenges into opportunities for growth and a more fulfilling, joyful life. At the heart of effective therapy is a strong, trusting relationship, and building that with you is my first priority. Empathy, authenticity, and genuine connection are not just values I hold; they are the foundation of how I show up for every person I work with, because you deserve a space where you feel truly heard and respected, and where open, honest dialogue is always welcomed. As we work together, I draw from evidence-based approaches tailored to your unique needs, preferences, and goals. That might look like broadening perspective, building resilience, practicing self-compassion, or challenging the thoughts that keep you feeling small. Whatever your path forward looks like, my aim is to be a supportive partner dedicated to your healing journey as you reclaim your sense of agency, practice self-compassion, and deepen your connection to yourself and others. My path to becoming a therapist began with a feeling of restlessness after a trial run at retirement. Reflecting on my life, I realized there was still more to give, just as so many had given to me along the way. Throughout my own journey, the attentive listening and encouragement of others kept me hopeful during fearful and uncertain times. Phrases like "this too shall pass," "one day at a time," “don’t borrow worry,” and "to thine own self be true" became anchors when doubt and insecurity crept in. Those experiences shaped my deep belief in the power of being truly heard. Before this chapter, I spent my career in management and leadership roles at innovative medical device companies, guiding diverse teams through change and helping develop products that improved patient access and outcomes. That work taught me the enduring importance of empathy, trusted communication, and adaptability. Those same qualities now live at the center of my therapeutic practice. In my free time, you'll most likely find me soaking up the Colorado sun with family and friends, hiking, skiing, traveling, or simply following wherever curiosity leads

If you think I might be a good fit for you, reach out via phone, text or email to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation to learn more. I look forward to talking with you!
