I'm Maddie, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a doctorate from the University of Southern California and six years in private practice. Before that, I spent nearly two decades working in schools as an educator, counselor, and mental health advocate — so I know the world teens, young adults, and parents are living in. I specialize in anxiety, life transitions, maternal mental health, and family stress, and I use CBT and EMDR to help people actually move forward.
I'm Nicole Shelton, a double board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner (APRN, PMHNP, FNP). My experience in ICU and the ER informs my holistic approach to care. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, substance use, and trauma across the lifespan. As a military wife and mother, I emphasize lifestyle balance, encouraging patients to integrate nutrition and exercise. I am dedicated to breaking mental health stigma and advocating for veterans and those impacted by trauma, ensuring you feel seen, supported, and empowered on your journey.
Hi, I'm Alejandra Hartbeck, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) providing virtual therapy to individuals across Colorado in both English and Spanish. I have experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and other emotional concerns. My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, build practical coping skills, and work toward meaningful, lasting change. I believe therapy should be collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs.
Hello. I am a clinical psychologist that has been practicing for ten plus years. I have had extensive training with evidence based trauma treatments.
My priority is to provide a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. With over 40 years in healthcare—including service as a former Navy Nurse Corps Officer and retired military veteran—I bring values of resilience, trust, and teamwork into every therapeutic relationship. I view care as a partnership and work to empower you to take an active role in your mental health.
Clinical Focus & Services
I provide pharmacotherapy (medication management) motivational interviewing, and other therapeutic modalities. We can assess during the first meeting if your treatment requires additional therapeutic support. I will provide a referral to a licensed therapist to ensure you receive comprehensive care. My practice supports:
My ideal clients are seeking deeper connections but feeling held back by intimacy issues, relationship patterns, anxiety, depression, or trauma. You might feel disconnected from your partner, overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts, or stuck in cycles that no longer serves you. In our work together, you don't have to hide any part of who you are. I provide a grounded, entirely non-judgmental space centered on authentic human connection. Together, we explore what is keeping you stuck and build practical, compassionate paths toward relational understanding, emotional stability, and personal healing.
I have 30 years of experience in the behavioral health field and supporting clients with evidence based skills and lived experience. Together we can explore your goals, struggles and successes. I specialize in anxiety, depression, substance use/misuse issues, stress and life transitions. My main approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Motivational techniques to help guide your self discovery. Professionals looking to navigate work related demands, I provide coaching and direction to maximize professional and leadership skills to meet your potential. We will work at your comfort level in a supportive environment of exploration and change.
I am a licensed clinical social worker who believes in the infinite capacity of humans to move through and beyond experiences that have brought us down. I bring my real self to the therapy space. I'm a therapist who personally understands the struggle. My clients work with me because they want somebody authentic and down to earth.
I’m really glad you’re here.
Many of the people I work with are used to being capable, thoughtful, and strong for others, but inside, something feels off. You might be dealing with anxiety, depression, burnout, or a sense that you’ve lost connection with yourself. Sometimes it’s not just about what’s happening right now, but patterns that have been quietly shaping your life for a long time.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Colorado, with over 20 years experience working across a wide range of settings, including community mental health, mobile crisis and co-response, skilled nursing, public health, and critical access hospitals. This background allows me to meet you where you are, whether you’re navigating everyday stress or something more complex, to bring both depth and compassion to our work.
I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, life transitions (career, relationships, health, identity shifts), and the lingering impact of stress or past experiences.


Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right postpartum therapist in Denver starts with identifying what kind of support you need. Postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth trauma, and difficulty bonding are among the most common concerns new parents bring to therapy. A licensed provider — such as an LCSW, LPC, psychologist, or psychiatrist — with training in perinatal mental health can help you work through these experiences with approaches tailored to your situation.
Denver has a strong community of perinatal mental health providers, with options for both in-person sessions across the metro area and virtual appointments from home. When comparing providers, look for details about their specific experience with postpartum care, the therapeutic approaches they use, and whether their availability fits your schedule. A free phone consultation can also help you determine if a provider is the right match before you commit to a session.
Therapy in Denver can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before booking, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a postpartum therapist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
