Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Denver & San Diego
Meet Allie Evans, Therapist in Denver & San Diego
Hi, I’m Allie. I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist based in Denver and San Diego. As a licensed therapist in both Colorado and California, I also work online with clients from throughout both states.
Often, the patterns we struggle with in adulthood begin in early relationships—times when you may have felt like too much or not enough. To stay close to your loved ones, it may have felt easier or safer to tuck away parts of your authentic self. Over time, you might have learned to seek validation from others through patterns like perfectionism, people-pleasing or overachieving.
In therapy, we’ll take time to understand the ways you’ve learned to protect yourself—strategies that once helped you get through hard things but may now feel limiting or exhausting. We’ll help your nervous system settle, explore new ways to cope, and grow your self-compassion—so you can show up trusting that you are enough, and that your authentic self is worthy of taking up space.
Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR and somatic approaches, we’ll explore the deeper emotional patterns that live in both your mind and body. Together, we’ll work toward a stronger sense of self—one that helps you turn inward for guidance, rather than relying on who the world says you need to be.
If you're feeling called to explore this work and my approach resonates with you, I would love to hear from you.
