Hello- I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and educator of 36 years in the private school community of Denver. I will help you uncover what’s causing the chaos in your life by identifying the patterns that got you here -and create tools for change that are straightforward and easy to weave into daily life. I work with individuals, families and couples struggling with depression, anxiety, divorce/co-parenting, mood disorders, learning differences and the Autistic Spectrum of Disorders. I am also a parent coach and help families develop systems that will help reduce power struggles and conflict with positive strategies.

I am also a mother and Colorado native, which keeps me grounded in the realities of family struggles, transitions and meaningful relationships.

If you’re seeking compassionate, collaborative support, you’re in the right place! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with an M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Denver Seminary (2018) and training at Denver Family Institute. I support individuals, couples, and families through life transitions like career, marriage, pregnancy, early parenthood, anxiety, depression, and addiction recovery with warm, practical, collaborative care. I’ve worked in multiple settings, including substance‐use intensive outpatient programs, which shaped my systems‐focused approach.

Each of us has experienced difficulties in our lives that have impacted how we see ourselves, others and God. These experiences can result in anxiety, depression, grief, sadness and pain. Exploring these events from a holistic perspective allows us to find healing and wholeness-body, mind and spirit. I especially enjoy working with young adults, believing that the sooner we can be free from our skewed perspectives, the more we can walk in wholeness and health. A healed perspective allows us to make healthy choices for our future. I believe clients who have a safe place to share their story can find lasting healing.

I offer individual counseling. I am trained in EMDR. I am a wife, mom of four including an adult child with special needs, and a grandmother. I have experienced healing in many areas of my life and believe that healing and wholeness is possible for my clients.

Hi, I’m Glenn Permar — a therapist, former school counselor, and U.S. Air Force veteran. I help teens and adults who feel mentally overloaded, anxious, or scattered find more steadiness, focus, and calm in their daily lives.

Many of the people I work with describe their minds as always “on” — juggling ideas, worries, and to-do lists that never seem to end. Whether it’s anxiety, ADHD, or burnout, that constant pressure can make life feel exhausting. Together, we slow things down and find what I call your “steady middle” — that balanced space between feeling overworked and feeling stuck, where your mind feels alert but grounded.

My approach combines evidence-based tools like CBT and mindfulness with a down-to-earth, collaborative style. You won’t find judgment or jargon here — just real conversation, practical strategies, and space to understand what your stress is trying to tell you.

Before becoming a therapist, I served in the Air Force and later worked as a school counselor and Social Emotional Learning Specialist during the pandemic. Those experiences shaped how I help people manage stress, build emotional resilience, and move through life with more confidence and calm.

If you’re ready to understand your mind, manage stress in ways that actually work, and create more balance in your life, I’d be honored to work with you.

Let's work together and help you find your direction. My counseling style is highly consultative and coaching-like. It is typically non-directive, as I believe each client pilot's their own ship, but when the situation warrants, there is plenty of idea sharing and strategizing as well.

I have been practicing for 21 years and work with clients of all ages and various backgrounds. I believe that with a strong therapeutic alliance, we can mutually come together and help you find a path forward that suits you.

I am a certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over ten years of experience in the mental health field. I obtained my Bachelors in Neuroscience from Colorado College and my Masters in Psychiatric Nursing from University of Southern Maine. I also attended a residency through VA Boston and a fellowship through the Integrative Psychiatry Institute. I interweave traditional and functional psychiatry to help my clients achieve symptom relief and optimal mental wellness.

It is my purpose to guide others toward their innate capacity for growth and wholeness.

I work well with individuals ready to go deeper into understanding their own inner wold, healing from past experiences, and developing greater compassion for oneself and others.

Hi, I'm Marisa. I specialize in supporting the women who are always 'the strong ones'—the dependable professionals, daughters, and partners who hold it all together while quietly carrying the weight of burnout and anxiety.

Many of my clients have spent years pushing through their own needs to show up for others. While that strength served you for a long time, it often leads to a sense of feeling stuck, numb, or disconnected. I offer a grounded, trauma-informed space where you can finally stop performing and start healing. Licensed in Ohio and Colorado, I bring both clinical expertise and lived understanding to help you move at a pace that feels safe for your nervous system.

I primarily work with adults experiencing symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, depression and ADHD.
