Understand yourself better and build stronger, healthier relationships
Whether you are navigating the transient nature of Denver’s dating scene or trying to repair the foundation of a long-term partnership, relationships are the most significant part of our human experience. Yet, for many of us, they are also the greatest source of anxiety and pain.
Perhaps you find yourself in the "Denver Dating Loop"—constantly meeting new people but never feeling a true "click," or feeling like you have to hide your "messier" parts to remain attractive and "Colorado-chill." Or maybe you are in a partnership that looks perfect from the outside, but inside, you feel lonely, misunderstood, or stuck in the same circular arguments.
You don’t just need basic communication tips. You need a space to understand how you find connection, and therapy can help.
Relationship & Dating Therapy in Denver
The interior work of building external connections
We don’t just look at the conflict or challenges in your dating life; we look at the parts of you that are involved in the conflict. We can use specific types of therapy, including Internal Family Systems (IFS) and EMDR, we explore the roots of your relationship patterns and even traumatic past relationships rather than just managing the symptoms.
Understanding Your Protective Parts: Often, the behaviors that frustrate us in relationships—like shutting down, "people-pleasing," or lashing out—are actually protective parts of us trying to prevent us from being hurt again.
Healing Attachment Wounds: Many of our relationship struggles are echoes of the past. Using EMDR, we can process early experiences of rejection or neglect that still influence how you respond to your partner or a first date today.
I provide a warm, non-judgmental space for:
The Intentional Dater: Helping you move past "dating fatigue" and app-induced anxiety to date from a place of self-led worth rather than scarcity, whether you’ve been dating or you’re just trying to do it in a healthier, more fulfilling way.
Couples: Breaking the cycle of "pursue-withdraw" and helping you move toward intimacy where both partners feel safe enough to be vulnerable through couples therapy.
High-Achieving Professionals: Balancing the drive for a successful career in Denver with the emotional openness required for a healthy home life.
