Individual Therapy for Adults & Young Adults in Denver and New York (Telehealth)

Individual Therapy

Individual therapy offers a supportive, confidential space to explore emotional challenges, understand patterns, and create meaningful change.

I provide online individual therapy for adults and young adults in Denver, Colorado and New York, specializing in evidence-based, holistic care for high-functioning individuals who may feel overwhelmed beneath the surface.

You may benefit from individual therapy if you:

  • Feel anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally exhausted
  • Struggle with intrusive thoughts, perfectionism, or self-criticism
  • Feel disconnected from yourself or others
  • Notice repeated or painful relationship patterns
  • Are navigating a major life transition or period of stress

Areas of Focus in Individual Therapy

Anxiety and depression often affect high-functioning adults in subtle but persistent ways. You may appear capable on the outside while internally feeling overwhelmed, numb, or stuck.

Anxiety & Depression

Chronic worry, low mood, overthinking, perfectionism, sleep issues, burnout, or emotional shutdown.

Common signs include:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, somatic and nervous system-based interventions, and emotionally focused processing.

Anxiety & Depression

OCD involves intrusive, unwanted thoughts and repetitive behaviors or mental rituals aimed at reducing distress. It is often driven by doubt and difficulty tolerating uncertainty.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Intrusive thoughts, mental checking, reassurance-seeking, compulsions, fear-based perfectionism, or “what if” thinking that feels hard to escape.

OCD may show up as:

Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Inference-Based Cognitive Therapy (I-CBT), and mindfulness-based strategies.

Evidence-based treatment includes:

Concerns around body image and self-esteem often extend beyond appearance, impacting confidence, relationships, and self-worth.

Body Image & Self-Esteem

Constant self-criticism, comparison, discomfort in your body, difficulty accepting compliments, tying worth to productivity, or feeling “never enough.”

This may show up as:

CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), somatic interventions, EMDR therapy when appropriate, and insight-oriented talk therapy.

Therapeutic approaches may include:

Relationship challenges are often rooted in attachment patterns learned early in life. Even when you care deeply, difficulty in relationships can feel confusing, draining, or painful.

Relationship Issues & Codependency

People-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, fear of abandonment, losing yourself in relationships, over-giving, trust issues and fear of commitment, emotional highs and lows, or repeating the same relational patterns.

This may show up as:

Attachment-focused psychoeducation, CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and EMDR therapy when appropriate.

Therapy may include:

Pregnancy and the postpartum period can bring profound change—physically, emotionally, and relationally. Even when this chapter is wanted or joyful, many individuals experience emotional distress that feels unexpected, isolating, or difficult to put into words.

Pregnancy & Postpartum Mental Health

Anxiety during pregnancy or after birth, postpartum depression or emotional numbness, intrusive thoughts, birth trauma, constant worry about your baby, perfectionism, and identity or relationship shifts. These symptoms are more common than many realize—and they are treatable. As a therapist and a fellow mother, I offer compassionate, nonjudgmental support.

You may benefit from support if you’re experiencing:

Somatic and nervous system-based support, EMDR therapy when appropriate, CBT, mindfulness-based interventions, and gentle emotional processing.

Therapy during pregnancy and postpartum may include:

Trauma is shaped not only by what happened, but by how your nervous system responded. It may result from a single event or ongoing emotional or relational stress.

Trauma

Feeling on edge or emotionally shut down, intense emotional reactions, hypervigilance, difficulty trusting others, or feeling disconnected from your body or sense of self.

Trauma may show up as:

Nervous system regulation, emotional safety, and gentle processing of experiences that continue to affect you today.

Trauma-informed therapy supports:

Approaches may include:

EMDR therapy when appropriate, somatic interventions, and nervous system-based tools.
My integrative, trauma-informed approach allows therapy to be tailored to your goals, pace, and nervous system. Sessions are collaborative, grounded, and focused on sustainable change.

I offer secure telehealth individual therapy throughout Denver, Colorado and New York, providing flexibility and consistency from the comfort of your home.

Individual Therapy Tailored to You

Therapy may include a thoughtful combination of the following evidence-based approaches, depending on your needs:

How Therapy Works

  • Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP): Helps safely process emotions within a supportive therapeutic relationship.
  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Supports relating differently to difficult thoughts and emotions while staying connected to your values.
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps identify and shift unhelpful thought and behavior patterns contributing to anxiety, depression, and stress.
  • EMDR Therapy: When appropriate, helps reduce the emotional intensity of distressing experiences and trauma.
  • Somatic Interventions: Body-based techniques that support nervous system regulation and release stored stress.
  • Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction: Builds grounding, present-moment awareness, and emotional balance.
  • Inference-Based Cognitive Therapy (I-CBT): An evidence-based approach for OCD that targets cycles of doubt and intrusive thinking.
  • Exposure Therapy (ERP): Gradually reduces OCD-related anxiety by facing fears without engaging in compulsions.



Not every approach is used with every client. Therapy is always individualized and paced with care.
