About
I’m a warm, behaviorally grounded therapist who will meet you with compassion and real-world tools—so you feel understood, learn what’s driving the patterns, and build skills that make daily life worth living.
I'm a therapist with a practical approach grounded in DBT and behavioral principles. I work with clients stuck in intense emotions, anxiety, shame, or repeating relationship patterns. I draw from DBT, CBT, and behavioral strategies while keeping work collaborative and tailored to you. Many clients want clear tools and practice to manage overwhelm, reduce reactivity, improve communication, and feel more steady. Whether navigating stress, transitions, neurodivergent traits, or patterns that don't match who you're trying to be, my goal is to help you feel understood and empowered—with a practical plan you can use.
My style is warm, direct, practical. I use DBT and behavioral strategies to help you identify patterns and practice skills that work. I also use CBT for thinking patterns. You can expect collaboration, accountability, and real-world focus through coping plans and communication practice. My goal is for you to leave with skills you can use independently.
If you've been carrying a lot while staying functional, you're not alone. Therapy is a place where you feel genuinely understood and learn skills to make life more manageable, one step at a time. If you're ready for supportive, practical work grounded in real change and compassion, I'd be honored to work with you. Schedule an appointment when you're ready.

As a veteran and trauma-informed therapist, I understand that our experiences can shape how we see ourselves and the world around us, and I strive to create a space where clients feel safe, heard, and empowered to better understand themselves and the experiences that have shaped them.
I am a Licensed Social Worker and trauma-informed therapist with extensive experience working with adolescents, adults, and families. Throughout my career, I have supported people navigating trauma, anxiety, grief and loss, behavioral and emotional challenges, family conflict, crisis, and difficult life transitions. I work with clients who may feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or unsure of what comes next, helping them better understand their experiences, develop healthier ways of coping, strengthen relationships, and build confidence in themselves and their ability to navigate life’s challenges.
I believe therapy works best when clients feel comfortable being honest and know they will be met without judgment. I take a practical, individualized approach, helping clients recognize patterns, build coping and communication skills, and identify strategies that fit their lives. I value authenticity, and working alongside each client at their own pace.
Reaching out for support can be difficult, especially when you have been carrying things on your own for a long time. You do not have to have everything figured out before beginning therapy. Wherever you are right now, we can start there. If you feel I may be a good fit for you or your family, I invite you to schedule an appointment.

As one who has experienced personal trauma and sought out therapy initially as a child, I have an authentic understanding of how we are impacted by painful life circumstances and how building of new life skills can empower us once again.
Hello! My name is Caroline. I'm a licensed clinical social worker. I typically work with children, adolescents, young adults, and families. I have extensive experience with anxiety, depression, and trauma. I'm skilled in Emotion Focused Family Therapy, helping families build skills to resolve conflict and strengthen trust and connection.
My approach is warm, goal-oriented, direct, and empathetic. I believe that working together with my clients creates better outcomes. I'm committed to helping you feel safe and supported as we navigate challenges. My focus is on helping you develop practical skills and insights that make a real difference in your relationships and well-being.
Reaching out for therapy can feel intimidating, whether it's your first time or your thirtieth. I provide an empathetic, and straightforward, non-judgmental approach. You're in control and can share at your own pace as we get to know each other. If it feels like the right fit, I invite you to schedule an appointment. I look forward to getting to know you!

A therapist dedicated to helping people find their sense of purpose and identity and helping people heal from experiences that may be preventing growth and contentment in life.
My name is Chad. I began my journey in mental health treatment in 2009 after leaving seven years of service in the United States Air Force. I earned a Masters in Counseling Psychology in 2012 and achieved licensure in 2014.I was certified in EMDR in 2011 and have been actively treating trauma symptoms for over 15 years. I've learned to integrate CBT and Narrative therapy into my practice for a more complete approach to recovery. I also help clients build boundaries, improve coping skills, develop better communication methods, resolve conflict more effectively, and pursue their life goals.
Life experiences shape how we see and respond to the world. Some lead to growth and strength. Others—toxic people, traumatic events, undeserved hardship—limit our sense of identity and control. Improved boundaries and communication help clients build healthier support. Trauma therapies help heal from past wounds and live more fully in the present.
Everybody has their own story. I'm looking forward to hearing from you and helping you write the next chapters in your life. Nothing is certain, but I will offer you the best guidance and insight I can provide and help you take your next steps forward. I look forward to meeting you and beginning this journey together.

As a Hispanic counselor, I bring both professional experience and personal understanding of how culture, loss, and trauma can shape our lives.

Hi, I'm Brittany, a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and national certified counselor (NCC). I work with teens and adults navigating life transitions, stress, trauma, loss, relationship challenges, and experiences that leave them feeling stuck. My approach is supportive, straightforward, and down-to-earth. Therapy should be a space where you can be yourself while growing. I work collaboratively with my clients to understand their experiences, develop practical coping skills, and make meaningful changes. My goal is to help you leave therapy with tools and insights that extend beyond our sessions.
My approach is straightforward, supportive, and collaborative. I create a space where you can be yourself and grow. I believe laughter matters in therapy. I use CBT, DBT, solution-focused techniques, and trauma-informed care to help develop coping skills and confidence. My goal is tackling difficult things with humor and connection.
Starting therapy can feel uncomfortable when you're used to handling things alone. You don't need everything figured out before walking through the door. We'll start where you are and build from there. If you're ready for a space where you can be yourself, feel supported, laugh, and grow, I invite you to schedule an appointment and see if we're a good fit.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Self-harm counseling is aimed at helping individuals who struggle with harming themselves break this pattern by addressing the underlying emotional causes and working to develop new, healthier coping skills. Thriveworks self-harm therapists in Westminster, CO are experienced in treating those who self-harm with empathy, compassion, and unconditional regard in order to help them heal and recover, both physically and emotionally.
Self-harm counseling at Thriveworks often uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help clients discover the connections between their thoughts and feelings and their behaviors. By assessing these areas, Thriveworks Westminster therapists can help clients find and address the true emotional roots of their patterns and, from there, effectively adjust unwanted behaviors.
Self-harm counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The duration of self-harm counseling will often depend on a variety of factors, such as the intensity of an individual’s symptoms or the current levels of stress present in their lives. Because of this, treatment can last a handful of months or on a continual basis over the course of years. In the end, it’s up to the client and their individual needs.
Self-harm is often the only way people know how to express the excruciating life experiences they have survived. They may live with the severe emotions that often come with victimization, trauma, poverty, and more. When people do not know how to process the shame and the pain, they may express the emotional pain through physical pain.
If you or someone you love uses cutting or self-harm to find relief from the pain of life, know that you are not alone and know that it is possible to learn different coping skills. The therapists at Thriveworks Westminster have helped many people who struggle with self-injury heal from psychological pain and find new ways to express their feelings.
While cutting may be the most recognizable type of self-harm, it is by no means the only type. Self-injury can take different forms. For example, people may burn, carve, brand, scratch, pinch, or cut themselves to cause harm. Some people pull their hair, pick their scabs, or sabotage another wound’s healing process. Self-harm may pop up in people’s lives during difficult seasons, or it can occur regularly and repeatedly.
Just as the forms of self-injury vary greatly, so can the symptoms displayed by people who utilize it as a coping mechanism. For example, symptoms of self-harm may include…
There is a strong link between psychological pain and self-injury. In particular, many people who self-harm have been abused as children. They may have experienced neglect, emotional abuse, physical abuse, or sexual abuse. Abuse and other traumatic experiences can spark emotions such as worthlessness, confused sexuality, anger, panic, guilt, rejection, and/or self-hatred, and survivors of abuse often have difficulty regulating and processing these intense emotions. Self-injury is often the only way people know how to escape, even if momentarily. Through self-harm, people are often seeking…
To blame themselves for the hardship they have endured. Despite momentary relief, self-injury often exacerbates the underlying problems instead of alleviating them.
If you or someone you love are cutting or utilizing other forms of self-harm to cope with life, know that change is possible. The therapists and counselors at Thriveworks Westminster have seen people turn self-hatred into self-love and self-harm into self-advocacy. The process is not easy, but we are here for support and guide.
If you are ready to meet with a counselor or therapist, know that Thriveworks Westminster has appointments for self-harm available. Dealing with self-injury is difficult enough, scheduling therapy should not add to the difficulty. Our office has tried to make the scheduling process as easy as possible.
When you call our office, a person will answer and help you make an appointment. We also accept most insurance plans and offer weekend and evening appointments. Let’s start healing: Contact Thriveworks Westminster today.
