Welcome to Mindful Counseling, EMDR in Denver:
Trauma Therapy, Couples Therapy
Do you:
- Consider yourself a feminist, but feel trapped and exhausted with trying to live up to social expectations and norms? Like, you hate the patriarchy, so why can’t shake the feeling that you need to lose those last 10 lbs all while managing your household and breaking the glass ceiling at work?
- Feel things deeply, but often find that you are overstimulated by the chaos of life? You crave a break from it all but you also desperately want to feel connected and seen by the people you love.
- Feel like everything you do needs to be perfect, and beat yourself up if it isn’t?
- Have unresolved trauma that still impacts the way you see yourself and others?
- Feel held back by self-doubt, negative body image, and anxiety? In fact, you may look like you have it all together on the outside (my clients are often high achieving women who ‘do it all’), but inside you are buckling from all the pressure.
- Have trouble finding your voice and setting boundaries in your relationships?
- Feel disconnected and anxious in your relationship with your partner?
- Give and give but don’t feel appreciated in your relationship?
- And maybe you’ve tried to heal these things in talk therapy before. You know rationally that you are safe and worthy of love, but your body and emotions don’t seem to believe it.
If so, I’m so glad you’re here. I get it and I want you to know that you don’t have to feel like an imposter in your own life.
A trauma therapist who helps you heal deep wounds
I’m Emma, and I’m a psychotherapist. I’m also a self-compassion guru, a philosophical investigator, and an expert meaning maker. I love to laugh and connect (improv comedy is one of my passions!), and I understand the journey of self-love because I’ve been on it myself. I’ve helped hundreds of women have more grace with themselves, reconnect with their partners, and live into their potential. I specialize helping my clients find deep healing that they perhaps haven’t experienced in traditional talk therapy before. I offer mindfulness based counseling, couples therapy, as well as EMDR therapy, and IFS informed counseling, in Colorado and Florida.
I work with individuals and couples in therapy to help them:
- Heal old traumas that are stuck in their bodies and are preventing them from feeling safe, calm and connected in their current life and relationship
- Create better boundaries and feel connected in their relationships
- Prioritize their own self-care and wellbeing
- Process through the old stories and let go of negative beliefs that don’t serve them
- Become more mindful of their emotions and learn how to tend to them
- Understand what they want and create a joyful, balanced life
The women and couples who have worked with me share things like,
- “I have tools that I can use to state my boundaries.”
- “For the first time ever, I feel excited and joyful in my life.”
- “I have more confidence in myself.”
- “I don’t beat myself up nearly as much, and when I do, I know how to reconnect with myself.”
- “I understand the root causes of the old, negative stories that have been controlling my life.”
- “I am healing.”
- “This is magic.”
If you are a perfectionistic, thoughtful woman who feels held back by past traumas and low self worth, or if you're struggling in your relationship, I’m here to tell you:
You deserve to have a life you love and relationships that fulfill you. You are enough. You can heal.
It may feel like suffering and living with constant anxiety is just a way of life. It doesn’t have to be. You can have relationships that sustain you, that help you feel supported and appreciated. You can develop a relationship with yourself where you are your own best friend, honoring your own needs and listening to yourself. You can have more energy, passion, and vitality in your own life.
If you are ready to invest in yourself, please reach out today. I am here to walk with you on your journey to self love, discovery and growth. I can’t wait to accompany you.
