Family therapy and counseling in Denver, CO
Top family therapists in Denver, CO
Denver families face unique challenges navigating parenting, relationships, and life transitions. Headway's network of warm, solution-oriented providers specializes in family dynamics, attachment repair, and communication skills to help your household thrive.
I specialize in supporting adolescents and young adults as they navigate the unique challenges of growing up, finding identity and new roles, and building resilience. Therapy with me is collaborative and supportive, and my approach is grounded in warmth, curiosity and genuine care for your story.
It's not easy starting therapy and investing time in yourself, but you've already done the first step! My experience has primarily been focused in clients with eating disorders and co-occurring diagnoses. With that said, I also have extensive experience working with relationship challenges, anxiety, self-harm, and suicidality. I generally like to pull from my knowledge of various therapy modalities such as DBT, CBT, FBT and EFFT. I also really enjoy self-compassion work. Your goals are always my top priority, and I am here to support you every step of the way.
Outside of work, I enjoy live music, spending time with friends, and hanging out with my dogs, Nala and Toni. These personal interests help me stay grounded and bring balance to my life, which I believe is crucial for overall well-being.
If you're ready to take the next step, I'm here to help you navigate your journey towards healing and growth. Let's work together to achieve your goals!
Hi! I'm Ashley, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with over 20 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-based counseling to individuals, couples, and families. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with diverse populations across all ages and backgrounds, helping clients navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, and life transitions.
Most of us haven’t made it through life without a few bruises. Sometimes we lose touch with ourselves along the way, shaped by what we’ve been through and the weight of those experiences.
That doesn’t mean anything is wrong with you. It means you adapted. Sometimes beautifully. Sometimes painfully. Often both.
Therapy is a space to slow down, get curious, and gently begin untangling what you’ve been carrying. Together, we can explore your story with compassion, reconnect with who you are beneath old patterns, and move toward a way of living that feels more aligned, grounded, and authentic.

I am a dedicated, diligent, & committed professional with experience working with diverse populations in healthcare & school settings serving disadvantaged youth & adults, including physically & sexually abused children. I have a deep understanding of trauma & its impact on mental health, & I offer support to those who have experienced traumatic events.
Clients should know that I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where they can show up as their authentic selves. I value building a genuine connection and work collaboratively with clients to help them better understand themselves, develop coping skills, and move toward meaningful change at their own pace.
If you've been told your anxiety, exhaustion, or emotional shifts are "just stress" or "just aging" — and something in you knows it's more than that — you're in the right place. I'm Kristal, a licensed therapist with over 15 years of experience supporting people through life's most challenging transitions. That career — rooted in crisis intervention, child welfare, and working alongside people experiencing homelessness — built in me a deep capacity to sit with complexity, pain, and change without flinching. That foundation now drives my specialized work with women navigating perimenopause and menopause. I bring both clinical expertise and lived experience to this work. I've walked this road myself — which means when you show up, you will be genuinely seen and heard, perhaps in a way you haven't been in a long time.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapy Therapist in Denver
Finding family therapists in Denver starts with understanding what your family wants support with. Family therapy often focuses on parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, divorce-related changes, co-parenting, and communication across generations. Licensed marriage and family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties and training that match your needs, such as family systems therapy, attachment-focused work, co-parenting support, or experience with family divorce counseling.
Denver has many therapy options across neighborhoods like Capitol Hill, Cherry Creek, Highlands, and Washington Park, which can make it harder to narrow the search. Consider whether in-person sessions near home, work, school, or transit fit your schedule, or whether virtual appointments make it easier for more family members to attend. Family therapy may include the full family, caregivers and children, co-parents, siblings, or individual members at different points. Before booking, read therapist bios to see how they describe session structure, communication style, scheduling availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Family therapy in Denver can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, review estimated out-of-pocket costs after you enter your insurance details, and compare profiles in one place. You can browse family counselors in Denver, review bios, and book directly when you are ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
