Hello-

For over 20 years I have had the privilege of supporting the unique life journeys of women and their families. My areas of practice include adjustment to life's changing landscape, the psychological and emotional adjustment to parenthood, mood and anxiety disorders, infertility and reproductive trauma and pregnancy and newborn loss. I believe that each one of us is "pre-programmed" for growth and that through self-study & self compassion we can relieve much of our own suffering.

I’m a board-certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience in healthcare and more than a decade as a nurse practitioner. My work blends evidence-based medication management with an integrative, trauma-informed lens. I believe effective care looks beyond symptoms to understand the person as a whole.

Hey there! I'm Annestazia (she/hers) and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor that understands starting therapy can be overwhelming- especially if you're struggling with holding everything together on the outside while feeling anxious on the inside. I work with adults across all stages of their life experiences, but have specialized training in recovery from substances, trauma, ADHD, emotional regulation, and life stressors including grief and loss, relationship troubles, anxiety and depression.

I earned my doctorate degree in clinical psychology from the University of Denver and have been in private practice for over ten years. I consider it an honor to be in relationship with my clients and to help them better understand themselves and change their lives. I strive to celebrate and create a safe space for all aspects of your identity.

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.

Small town living is a special kind of living. I have lived in northeastern Colorado my entire life, except for a short 5 years in Olympia, WA. I understand small town life.

I decided to become a therapist 14 years ago and completed my Masters Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at Northcentral University. My passion for helping families and individuals heal led me to specialize in Medical Family Therapy and to also receive advance training in EMDR therapy.

Sometimes life overwhelms us, but it doesn’t have to. I believe we all have the potential to control the way we react to situations we face.

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.
