I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years experience helping people with trauma-related disorders, depression, and anxiety. I enjoy working with people who are struggling to adjust to major life transitions or who are navigating challenging family or relationship dynamics. I also provide psycho-education, assessment, and skills-building for clients struggling with ADHD. I have specialized experience working with survivors of family or relationship violence.
I love this work. Twenty plus years in the field of psychotherapy, from hospitals, residential treatment, schools, outpatient clinics, crisis teams, to professional teams and now private practice, I offer a wide range of interventions.
If you're seeking family systems (internal and external), Couples & communication, Parenting & Co-parenting, Individual therapy, Trauma-recovery using EMDR, Brainspotting, Mindfulness and CBT, and Art Therapy, to support in identity exploration and archetypes, I'll meet you where you're ready to work. Even if therapy is new to you, or a familiar practice, we'll find where you are and what's in the way of where you want to be.
Hello, I'm Miranda. I have been a therapist for over 10 years and have spent nearly four of those years in private practice. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from CU Boulder and a Master's in Counseling from UCCS. Throughout my career, I have addressed a wide range of concerns and issues, from working with severely mentally ill individuals in a prison setting to engaging with a diverse clientele in community mental health. My specialties include trauma, adolescents, life transitions, and relationship issues.
I’m Valerie, a therapist based in Denver, CO. I work with children (ages 4+), teens, and adults navigating anxiety, ADHD, trauma, life transitions, and identity exploration. I earned my Master’s in Social Work in 2023 and have experience in both agency and private practice settings.
I also live with ADHD myself, which means I don’t just talk theory—I understand firsthand the challenges of focus, overwhelm, and motivation. Clients tell me that makes me feel more real and relatable, and I feel that is an important part of the therapeutic alliance.
I have a Bachelor of Science in Occupational Therapy and a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have worked in the healthcare field for over 30 years in a variety of settings including hospitals, home health, and mental health facilities. A highlight of my career was being able to provide healthcare and mental health services while volunteering in China, India, and serving in Peace Corps Mongolia.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time outside surrounded by trees and near a river or creek. I enjoy learning and make time to enhance my own personal growth. I also like to play games, ski, and listen to podcasts.

Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Golden
Finding the right therapist in Golden, CO starts with identifying what you want to address. Common reasons people in the Golden area seek therapy include anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Look for a licensed provider — such as an LPC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist — who has experience with your specific concerns. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they might be a good match.
Golden is a smaller community, so you may also want to consider providers in nearby cities like Lakewood, Wheat Ridge, and Arvada, or those who offer virtual sessions across Colorado. Having flexibility with format and location can open up more options, especially if you're looking for a specific specialty or therapy style like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
Therapy in the Denver metro area can be expensive, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Confirming your coverage upfront can help you focus on finding the right provider rather than worrying about cost.
