Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Longmont, CO

Hello! My name is Bree. I consider myself lucky to be in a position to support people as they navigate the often absurd, messy, and unpredictable situations life throws our way. I bring warmth, authenticity, and respect for every person's story. I care deeply about honoring your lived experience and the bigger picture of the world you move through.

I approach all experiences with curiosity and respect, including those that are unusual, feel out of the ordinary, spiritual, or hard to explain. My goal is to help you make sense of your experiences in a way that is authentic and empowering, without judgment or jumping to conclusions or diagnoses. I believe it’s important to look at the whole picture and never rush to label or define what you’re going through.

I'm also trained in Restorative Justice practices, and can offer support to anyone who’s been impacted by harm-whether you’ve experienced it, caused it, or both. In addition, if you’re interested in exploring Restorative Dialogue, or are already engaged in the process, I can support you every step of the way.

I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner who works from the belief that people are not broken—and that many of the struggles we call “mental illness” make sense when we look at trauma, context, and lived experience. I’m especially attuned to the ways mental health systems, stigma, and labels can unintentionally cause harm, and I aim to practice in a way that feels respectful, collaborative, and deeply human.

My approach is unconventional and trauma-informed, influenced by perspectives like those of Gabor Maté, which emphasize compassion, curiosity, and understanding symptoms as meaningful responses rather than defects. I do not believe in rushing to pathologize the human experience. As Joni Mitchell once reflected about depression, sometimes what we’re feeling is not an illness to be fixed, but a signal—an honest response to pain, loss, or a world that has not been kind.

I offer virtual or in-person therapy sessions in Castle Rock, Colorado. I know what it's like to struggle with depression, addiction, and narcissistic abuse. I became a therapist and an energy healer after going through my own "dark night of the soul." Many clients tell me that they relate to me because I have been though similar experiences and know what it's like to push through depression, and overcome addiction and trauma. My goal isn't to help you merely mask symptoms, but to help you navigate through them while healing the underlying roots, staying grounded, and discovering your most authentic self and a life of fulfillment and thriving.
