Anxiety & Depression Therapy in Colorado
Not just getting through the week.
I offer online therapy for teens and adults across Colorado, including Denver and Aurora, who are dealing with anxiety, depression, or both. Racing thoughts, heavy days, and the feeling that you're always bracing for something deserve to be taken seriously.
Coping skills have their place, and we'll build some. We'll also look at what's driving it.
If you're a parent worried about your teen, you don't need to have it figured out before you reach out.
What it can look like
Anxiety
- Racing thoughts that don't slow down at night.
- Replaying conversations and rehearsing the next one.
- A steady feeling that something bad is about to happen.
- A short fuse, or tears that show up out of nowhere.
- Trouble saying what you need, or even knowing what it is.
Depression
- Days when getting out of bed feels like too much.
- Feeling flat or heavy, or tired in a way rest doesn't fix.
- Pulling away from people you care about.
- Burnout, and a sense that nothing you do gets noticed.
- Being hard on yourself for all of it.
If you see yourself in both lists, that's common, and you don't have to pick one. If you're a parent, you may be the first to sense that something is off with your teen. You don't need a label to reach out.
What's underneath it
We begin with your days.
What they actually look like, and what you'd like to be different.
We look at the patterns.
Anxiety and low mood often have something behind them. Sometimes it's people-pleasing, boundaries that are hard to hold, burnout, or years of being undervalued or misread. We look at what's feeding it, so you're not only managing symptoms.
We build skills for the hard moments.
I draw on CBT and use regulation tools, so there are things to reach for when your thoughts are loud, your body is tense, or sleep won't come.
We check the plan together.
We set goals together and come back to them as life changes. Questionnaires can help us see how things are going, and if something isn't working, tell me and we'll adjust.
It often travels with other things
Anxiety and depression rarely show up alone. They can travel with trauma, with years of masking, or with the pressure of being the one who holds everyone together. These pages might be worth a look:
Trauma Therapy
When your body still acts as though the danger is here.
Autism Therapy
Masking, sensory overload, and burnout from years of adapting.
Women's Therapy
Giving to everyone and having little left for yourself.
Questions people ask
Do I need a diagnosis?
No. Many people come to me just knowing something feels off. We start with what you're experiencing. If you'd like an assessment, I can connect you with providers who offer them.
Do you work with teens?
Yes. I work with teens ages 13 to 17 as well as adults. If you're a parent or guardian, you can reach out first, even if you're not sure whether it's anxiety, depression, or something else. Send me a message, and I'll arrange a free 15-minute consultation call.
How do I know if it's anxiety, depression, burnout, or something else?
You don't have to work that out before you reach out. Sorting it out is part of what we do together. If it turns out autism or trauma is part of the picture, we'll look at that too.
Is this just coping skills?
Skills are part of it, and I'll teach you some. I'd also like to look at what's driving the anxiety or low mood, so you're not only getting through each week.
Do you provide medication?
I don't provide medication management myself. I work with a network of trusted providers who do, and I can connect you if you'd like to explore that.
I'm in-network with Aetna, Cigna Healthcare, SelectHealth, UnitedHealthcare, and other plans. Colorado Access is the only Medicaid plan I accept. Insurance & Payment
Tell me what's been weighing on you
Share what's been going on and what you'd like to feel different. You don't need to know whether it's anxiety, depression, or both. Mention your insurance if you have it. If you're a parent, tell me a little about your teen.
