Therapists for college students near Denver, CO

College can be an exciting time, but also a stressful one. You might feel overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or unsure about your relationships, identity, or future. If you're navigating tough emotions, academic pressure, or just trying to figure out who you are and where you're going, you're not alone—and you don't have to sort it out alone. I'm here to create a safe, supportive space where you can be yourself, speak freely, and feel heard. Together, we'll work at your pace to explore what's going on, what you need, and what helps you feel stronger and more grounded. Whether you're dealing with big transitions, past experiences that still affect you, or the everyday stress of college life, I’m here to support you with care and understanding.

Originally from Chicago, I moved to Colorado to pursue my Master’s at the University of Denver, which confirmed my passion for social work. Before opening my private practice, I worked extensively with survivors of intimate partner abuse, individuals in recovery and couples in crisis. This experience provided me with deep expertise in attachment therapy and reinforced the vital importance of trauma-informed care. My background has shaped a clinical approach rooted in curiosity and a drive to understand the motivations behind actions. This perspective allows me to serve my clients through relational lens, focusing on meaningful connection and growth. If you choose to work with me, you will find a collaborative environment defined by non-judgment and openness. Regardless of your goals, your identities, or where you are in your journey, it would be my honor to support you and your loved ones. I look forward to being your advocate as we work together to reach your goals.

Hi! My clients appreciate that therapy with me is more than "just talking". We focus on real tools and skills that help issues with relationships, focusing, motivation, mood, and trauma. We have fun but also dig deep to heal wounds or re-wire the brain into healthier patterns. Live the life you are wanting!

Reaching HOPE believes that together we can end the cycle of trauma. It is our mission to help individuals heal from trauma by providing a holistic approach to mental health services that address individual, relational and systemic healing, ultimately fortifying the health of communities for generations to come.

Link OT provides multi-faceted support to neurodistinct individuals seeking or sustaining employment or other life goals.

Link OT serves students who may struggle in the following areas: - Self-regulation, i.e. ability to calm and cope and get through the day, - Determining career or personal direction, - Task prioritization, shifting between tasks, and time management, - Short-term, long-term, and working memory, - Completing multi-step tasks (such as daily routines, assignments, etc), - Communication and feeling misunderstood and unappreciated, - Over-stimulation by various sensory stimuli in their environment (such as loud noise, crowds, people in personal space, temperature), - Sitting still and focusing on work, - Sleep, nutrition, energy level, pain or discomfort, staying active, etc., - Physical mobility, dexterity, or feeling awkward or clumsy.

My clients are what I like to call "smart, but stuck." If you experience anxiety, OCD, phobias, or panic attacks, you know how you can get tied into knots trying to arrange your life to control fearful thoughts and feelings. You might find yourself getting stuck in overthinking, repetitive actions, research, reassurance seeking, and avoidance of people, places, and situations that you used to enjoy. I help people get liberated from anxiety by getting unstuck from what doesn't work.

At the heart of my work is respect for your agency, deep curiosity about your lived experience, and belief in your capacity for growth and change. I offer a steady, collaborative space where individuals, couples, friends, and families can slow down, reflect, and explore patterns shaping their relationships and inner lives. Therapy with me is not about labeling or judging, it's about understanding what's going on, making sense of it together, and opening up new possibilities. I value authenticity, compassion, and connection, and I work alongside clients to build insight and practical tools that support balance, resilience, and deeper relational connection. Feeling stuck often signals a transition rather than a failure, and together we can create space for clarity, empowerment, and what’s ready to emerge next.

There's something different about you. Maybe you're figuring out what sexuality, gender, and romantic life can look like, or exploring polyamory or kink. Maybe you're a plural system. Or maybe your life has been changed by traumatic experiences. You may view the world through a neurotype or spiritual lens that doesn’t match the people around you. It might be really hard to trust people--to risk opening up about what you're dealing with. I get it. It’s hard to know who actually has your back. And trying to find the right counselor when you're already struggling with so much can feel impossible. That's where I come in. My job is to listen--to get to know you and help you shape your life into what *you* want it to be. As your therapist, I'll help you work toward the life you want, based on your specific situation and needs. I won't blame you, or try to change you in ways that you don't want, or force you to talk about things that are too hard. You might feel overwhelmed, but you've made it this far. You're taking steps toward feeling better--feeling okay. I know you're in pain, and I believe you're doing your best. But when things aren't working, you don't have to try to figure it all out alone. Send me an email, or a text, or a phone call. We can figure it out from here, together.

I can help you manage uneasy emotions by providing a safe, confidential space to explore your feelings without being judged. You will be given tools to manage your anxiety and depressive symptoms that can transform the way you move forward in life.

Welcome to Silver Linings Counseling! We are a diverse team of clinicians offering therapeutic services to adults suffering from a wide array of mental health issues. Our goal is to provide support, empathy, and guidance while utilizing a non-judgmental and client-centered approach to therapy.

My specialty is ‘extreme stuckness’. My approach is intense, caring, tough, and free-flowing rather than structured. My therapy groups are full of challenging, brilliant, courageous people who seek depth and growth. All the therapists in our group practice are trained in a meta-approach called "Feedback Informed Treatment" which means that we track how things are going session-by-session to see if anything needs to change about our work together to help you get where you want to go.

The intake process typically spans about four sessions, during which the emphasis is on assessing the compatibility between you and me. This initial stage is crucial as we establish a foundation for our therapeutic alliance and become acquainted with each other. A central element of my practice involves being fully present during our sessions and attuned to nonverbal cues. I listen to not only what you are saying but how you are feeling in the moment. I encourage you to observe and share your experiences during our discussions, fostering a sense of being present 'in the room' together. The therapy session serves as a secure space where we can explore your beliefs about yourself, how you make sense of the world, and your ways of connecting with other people. It provides an opportunity for you to practice assertiveness, express your emotions and needs, and challenge any assumptions about my perceptions and interactions with you.

Does your life feel out of control? Are you struggling with being overwhelmed by thoughts and feelings that may be related to anxiety, depression, grief or even trauma?

I have a successful track record, along with several years of experience, empowering individuals of all ages to explore, identify and cope with their mental health challenges. Together we can work through and release your challenges so you can begin healing and living your best life. You deserve happiness. I look forward to supporting you along your journey! In our sessions you can expect to work together in a safe, confidential and supportive environment, where I can compassionately assist you in overcoming your challenges. I utilize several person-centered, evidence-based approaches, that I will customize specifically for you and your challenges. I believe my strengths are in that I utilize an eclectic approach, customizing several types of interventions to specifically fit each person's needs and challenges. My experience and background help me to better assess and successfully assist individuals in promoting their highest level of healing. I utilize effective interventions but also learn and practice new and improved approaches. I believe it is important to integrate all aspects of an individual to achieve wholeness and promote the healing of the self. I utilize a variety of treatment approaches including CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, Play Therapy, Circle of Security Parenting, Brief Strategic Family Therapy, Brief Solution Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Anger Management, Motivational Interviewing, and specifically for trauma/abuse, TF-CBT, Child Parent Psychotherapy, HeartMath and EMDR interventions.

Hi there! My name is Kayla Deep, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping people experience more peace, emotional regulation, and confidence.

By identifying the narratives that are empowering us and the ones that are causing us harm, we can choose to write a new story, one where we are our most authentic selves. I aim to create an environment conducive to growth with a warm and affirming presence. You are the expert of your experience, and I am here to help reflect your wisdom back to you. I especially love working with people who are undergoing some kind of transition (graduation, moving, loss of a person or relationship) as I believe these are often times where we grow the most. Whatever approach we use will be tailored to your individual needs and goals, changing and evolving as you change and evolve! Creating a warm and empowering environment to process your stressors is important to me. If this sounds like a good fit for you, please reach out to schedule a consultation!
