Therapists for college students near Denver, CO
My specialty is addiction and couples counseling. I also offer counseling for anxiety, depression and life transitions. Recovery from addiction is not straight forward. Different people need different solutions. I have experience in all realms of recovery. I can offer you a trusting, healing, judgment free space where you can be completely honest. I practice contemplative psychotherapy, which means you own and accept all parts of yourself. Once you see the complexity of your human experience, you can understand this complexities in others, clearing the way for letting go, and ultimate healing. If you are seeking a therapist who will honor your unique journey, respect your autonomy, and support your innate ability to heal, I would be honored to accompany you on your path towards growth, well-being, and self-discovery. Together, we can create a space where you feel truly seen, heard, and empowered to embrace the fullness of your authentic self.
We use a process of looking at the imagination, loose associations, and dream material to help integrate subconscious depths with conscious material. The invisible is welcome and we will work best to support you. Surprise us with the breadth of the unknown. We work with individuals, not issues.
Hi, I’m Christina Bame, LCSW and Registered Yoga Teacher. As a queer, biracial/mixed race, gender fluid, and neurodivergent therapist, I bring both personal and professional understanding to my work.

My practice combines evidence-based methods like ACT and somatic therapy with creative modalities such as mindfulness, art, and movement. I am passionate about supporting clients navigating trauma, psychosis, and identity-based stressors—including racial, gender, and LGBTQ+ experiences—helping them find safety, empowerment, and reconnection to their authentic selves.
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.

Hi, My name is Heather and I have been working as an individual and family therapist for over 10 years. Through my professional experiences, I have found a love for working with younger adult clients and currently work with many undergraduate and graduate college student. I enjoy my work in helping to identify what isn't working for clients in their individual lives or in their relationships and finding alternative ways of thinking and responding that support mental wellness. My experience is is mostly in the areas of symptoms commonly experienced by those struggling with ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD. I work mainly with cognitive models of therapy and am trained in EMDR, and have experience with other theories of psychology that I interweave into my practice, depending on what clients needs are and what they respond positively to. Ultimately I think the connection between therapist and client is the most important part of the therapeutic relationship and I truly enjoy getting to know my clients on a personal level through the clinical work we engage in. I'd appreciate your consideration in your searches for a therapist to work with.
One of the greatest gifts I've received in my 19+ years of private practice, has been to witness individuals as they move towards healing, and discover a more fulfilling, whole life. The hold an eating disorder, anxiety or trauma can have on a life is profound. To watch the grip loosen, and healing emerge, is very moving. I enjoy learning, and collecting new tools and skills to help my clients. After I obtained my MSW from New York University's School of Social Work, I completed postgraduate training in eating disorders and body image issues at the Women's Therapy Centre Institute, and in Trauma Studies at the Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy. In addition, I completed a three-year training in Somatic Experiencing, and have assisted at professional trainings, helping other therapists to learn the model. I've led eating disorder groups for New York University's Counseling Center and various non-profit organizations, and have served as both a lecturer and group case consultant on eating disorders and trauma at postgraduate institutes in New York City. Interested in creating a culturally and spiritually sensitive practice, I completed a two-year program studying the world's major faith traditions, in an effort to better understand my clients from all backgrounds. I do not take any insurance. My fees range from $150-175 based on need, and I do not presently have a sliding scale beyond that range. If you have questions, or would like to request an appointment, please feel free to contact me. I offer ONLINE ONLY therapy in CA, CO and NY.

When life feels like too much to hold on your own, there is overwhelm, anxiety, uncertainty, or you could just use some extra support, therapy can be a beautiful choice. Therapy is many things; understanding old, habitual patterns, processing painful or confusing emotions, cultivating resources, reclaiming pleasure, and developing a trusted relationship with another person to process the most vulnerable parts. If talk therapy has already been tried and feels stale, then art and creativity, somatics, nervous system awareness, and nature connection can offer a profound alternative in your therapeutic journey. This is where I come in. I weave together art and creativity, somatics, nature-connection, and mindfulness. As well as reflection, contemplation, and talking to integrate. I work well with themes of identity, times of transition, expansion, self-compassion, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, decision making, burn-out, relationship dynamics, addiction, trauma, and parts work.

College can be intense — full of pressure, transitions, and big questions about who you are and where you’re headed. I offer a calm, compassionate space to slow things down and be with what’s coming up, just as you are, without rushing or fixing. My work is informed by Internal Family Systems (parts work) and mind-body awareness, and is centered on curiosity, presence, and working together. I offer a 15-minute consult as a brief opportunity to connect and ask questions about working together. Students often come to me feeling overwhelmed, self-critical, anxious, or unsure — sometimes carrying stress, family dynamics, perfectionism, or past experiences that still affect them. In our work together, we move gently and at a pace that feels supportive and respectful, paying attention to your inner experience, including how things show up in the body. You don’t need to know exactly what you want to work on or have the right words — we listen together beneath the pressure, creating room for insight, relief, and meaningful change to unfold over time. I have over 10 years of experience supporting people through this kind of inner work. I see therapy as a place where you can feel accompanied as you get to know yourself more deeply and find your own sense of clarity and direction.

College is often called "the best years of your life," but for many, it feels like an endless loop of performance, pressure, and old patterns. Whether you're navigating the heavy fog of academic burnout, the "lonely-but-smothered" cycle of new relationships, or a major life transition that has left you feeling completely ungrounded, I’m here to help you find your footing. I believe you shouldn’t have to "fix" who you are—especially your sensitivity. Instead, we’ll work on learning how to use it as your greatest compass. How We Work Together With over 23 years of experience, I’ve learned that the most powerful tool in the room is a real, authentic connection. I use a relational, mind-body approach—blending ACT and CBT—to help you name the barriers in your way and retire the survival patterns (like people-pleasing, perfectionism, or masking) that no longer serve you. I’m known for putting students at ease quickly; our first session isn't a "clinical intake," it's a grounded partnership. Specialized Support for Students: Neurodivergence & Burnout: Strategies for ADHD/Autistic students to manage executive function without the "perfectionism" spiral. LGBTQ+ Identity: A safe, affirming space to explore your identity and navigate coming out or relationship transitions. Relationship & Family Cycles: Breaking free from toxic patterns and setting healthy boundaries. Trauma & Identity: Healing from the past while figuring out who you are today. Addiction & Recovery: Navigating campus culture while staying true to your sobriety or harm-reduction goals. The Highly Sensitive Student (HSP): Tools for when the world (and the dorms) feels too loud or overwhelming. Mind-Body Wellness: Supporting students with Alopecia or autoimmune disorders through the emotional toll of chronic illness. Beyond the Office I am a firm believer in the healing power of the outdoors. When I’m not in the office, you’ll usually find me hiking with my dog and finding new adventures in the fresh air. Ready to start a chapter that actually belongs to you? Reach out and let’s see if we’re a good fit.
I provide individual and couples psychotherapy and use a relational approach to collaboratively explore with clients ways we learn early in our lives to cope with uncomfortable emotions that often contribute to current problems. I specialize in working with people struggling in their close relationships and those committed to improving their understanding of their feelings and themselves. My ultimate hope and goal is to help clients to increase their capacity to respond to future challenges with more resilience, insight, and self compassion. People who tend to benefit the most from working with me in therapy often feel overwhelmed due to grief, loss, or trauma or have difficulty maintaining healthy, loving connections. I particularly enjoy helping clients looking to improve the quality of their close relationships and those interested in deepening their comfort with emotions. I also work quite a bit with individuals seeking ongoing personal growth and exploring how to live their most fulfilling and meaningful lives possible. I believe wholeheartedly we can lead happier and more fulfilling lives by exploring our deepest, most vulnerable emotions to discover our authentic selves. As a licensed psychologist my training and experience allow me to help clients overwhelmed by painful feelings or stressful life events along with those seeking ongoing personal growth and a deeper and more meaningful sense of contentment in their lives. I am honored to have the opportunity to work with people looking to develop healthy close relationships in a safe and compassionate environment.
