Damon Dodge
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Therapy works best when it’s honest, focused, and grounded in real life. That’s how I work—with clarity, structure, and respect for your time and goals. We define what matters, examine what’s getting in the way, and do the kind of work that leads somewhere. It’s not about endless analysis—it’s about forward movement.

Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Welcome! I'm a clinical psychologist with nearly a decade of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. I see children, adolescents, and young adults aged 5 and up with depression, chronic PTSD and dissociation, anxiety, OCD, and ADHD. My clients present with a range of concerns, including anxiety, ruminative thoughts, shame feelings, and perfectionism. Having had extensive experience in both psychodynamic psychotherapy and Trauma Focused-CBT, I take an integrative approach when working with clients-I collaborate with you and your child to tailor your goals and address needs for treatment.
While we would tailor treatment to further draw out and address your goals, I work to help you get to know yourself-to name and regulate a range of feelings, identify negative beliefs about yourself, others, or the world, and find healthier ways to cope with strong feelings. I also consider how your past history is relevant to your present relationships.
The decision to seek therapy is such a courageous one. I think, oftentimes, we can tell ourselves that we can "think through" or "solve problems" entirely on our own-it's so difficult to reach out for support! I work at a pace that feels manageable for you or your child, focusing on creating a warm and collaborative alliance for therapy and assessment.

Johanna Wood, Leap Counseling and Consultation
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I specialize in exposure-based therapies for OCD and anxiety disorders. My clients typically have tried therapy before, but have not seen much improvement. They continue living in fear, anxiety, and guilt, as their lives continue getting smaller and smaller. This is because OCD and most anxiety disorders require specialized treatment. Coping skills are great, but they can only get you so far. The good news is, there are science-backed treatments for OCD and for anxiety that actually work. If you're ready to stop coping and start living, take a leap of faith and reach out.
My style is structured and balances use of the latest science with compassion and understanding. My goal is to make you feel heard, and feel challenged. I serve adults with primary issues of OCD and anxiety, and I also address co-occurring depression, insomnia, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and trauma, using cognitive-behavioral therapies. I address all forms of OCD and anxiety, but I have a special interest in scrupulosity (religious- and moral-based) OCD. I love helping people stop letting their OCD hijack their sources of meaning and get back to having faith in faith again.

Ashley Vroegindewey
Pre-Licensed Professional, LPCC
It's important to not feel judged when talking about the things that are causing us stress, depression, anxiety or pain in our lives. It's also important that we are supported in a compassionate manner. These are a few of the things that you can expect when in session with me; a compassionate, nonjudgemental and supportive ear. You can also expect goals and sessions tailored to your individual needs. I do not believe that one form of treatment works for everyone, which is why I practice an integrative approach that utilizes many different tools and techniques in order to tailor your treatment specifically to you.
There does not have to be something "wrong" with you in order to seek services. Some people come to me because they are worried all the time about things they do not need to worry about, some come because they are bad at focusing, some come because they are feeling down or hopeless, some come because they have decided to address a trauma they experienced, and some come because they are stressed over life changes. There is no right or wrong reason or time to come see me. I am ready to provide you the support you need now and in the future.

Brittany Bouffard, LCSW, CYT
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CYT
You deserve to feel perfectly enough in life, by learning to cope with a difficult childhood, a traumatic experience, or grieving a loved one. With any of these hardships, knowing your own emotions and needs can prove daunting. You might overwork, people-please, self-criticize, or over-caretake. You likely have feelings from the past that are tough to process. Therapy is a wonderful place for support in becoming your whole self with less stress. Please see much more below about working together around Childhood Difficulties & Trauma, Acute Traumas, or Grief & Loss.

Matthew Jones
Licensed Professional Counselor, MSCC, LPC
I began to pursue being a therapist because it is a source of healing and understanding and I want to help nurture that in others. I believe in paying it forward. There is a need to provide affordable and accessible mental health care. Therapy is a tool by which people can grow in the understanding of themselves and the world around them. IT is important to provide ethical and reliable care to those who want and need it. I try to guide the patient through the therapeutic experience by providing REST (Respect, Equality, Safety, and Trust.) This is one of the basic principles that I believe creates a healthy relationship. Come join me a safe space.

Are you struggling with anxiety, excessive worry, obsessive thoughts or behaviors, social anxiety, or panic? I specialize in treating anxiety disorders using Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I help clients develop healthier ways of thinking, relating to themselves, and responding to life so they can feel calmer, more confident, and more in control.

Melissa Crisp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Our work meets you where you are—inviting healing that’s felt in the body, nourishes the spirit, and deepens connection to self and others.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I believe every human being has inherent value, yet so many of us carry deep shame from past experiences that tell us otherwise—messages like “I’m bad,” “I’m too much,” “I’m unlovable,” or “If I show myself, I’ll be rejected.” These beliefs can quietly shape how we see ourselves, our relationships, and what we think is possible. In therapy, I work to help uncover and soften these old burdens so they no longer hold you back. My style is warm, collaborative, and deeply respectful of the courage it takes to show up. Together, we’ll build a space where you can feel seen in your wholeness, reconnect with your own inner wisdom, and move toward a life that feels freer and more grounded.

Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Add together truth, practicality, and yearning. Pull out an evidence-based toolkit, add a robust dose of woo, and together, we'll unpack what you're facing and craft a pathway forward, one where you'll feel equipped to handle what you're experiencing. I've worked as a therapist for more than a decade, most of it via distance platforms. I'm licensed in Colorado, Maryland, and California, which means I can work with clients across three states as they navigate life transitions, relocations, or simply need consistent support wherever they are.

Candice Dow
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC,
I believe therapy should be a space where you feel deeply seen, gently challenged, and supported in becoming more fully yourself. My work is rooted in relational healing, trauma-informed care, and a commitment to equity and authenticity. I integrate EMDR, CBT, and attachment-based modalities to support nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, and meaningful change. Whether you're navigating anxiety, perfectionism, identity exploration, or complex trauma, I meet you with curiosity, compassion, and practical tools tailored to your needs. Together, we’ll explore what alignment looks like for you—so healing isn’t just about feeling better, but about living more truthfully.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with young adults and adults who feel overwhelmed, overextended, and stuck in patterns they can’t think their way out of. Often, they’re still keeping life moving on the outside. Many of my clients are high‑functioning and responsible, while privately feeling depleted, anxious, or shut down. Therapy offers a place to slow down, notice what’s happening in your body and mind, and begin shifting toward a life that feels more like your own, including how you relate to yourself and others. My style is clear, thoughtful, and deeply attuned.

Michael Lockwood of Scene Creative Life Solutions
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW
Most men who reach out to me aren’t falling apart, they’re holding everything together while feeling numb, overwhelmed, or disconnected inside. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. You don’t need perfect words or a dramatic story to work with me. You just need the truth of where you are.
My work is grounded, direct, patient, and honest. I help men explore the deeper layers of identity, trauma, shame, and relationships, the things you were never given the space to talk about. I’m not here to lecture you or nod quietly. I’m here to help you understand yourself in a way that finally makes sense and opens something inside you that’s been shut for a long time.
If you’re ready for therapy that actually means something, I’m here for you.

Todd Kline
Psychiatrist, Medical Doctorate, MD
Hey! I'm Dr. Todd Kline and welcome to my private practice. I offer evaluations and ongoing treatment within about 2-3 weeks -- sometimes sooner since I'm expanding my private practice to full time. I treat Adults and Adolescents primarily with Psychotherapy and Medications, specializing in Anxiety/Panic, Depression, Grief, Life Transitions, Mood illnesses and Attention Deficit Disorder. I take Anthem/BCBS, Cigna, Medicare, Medicaid, United, Aetna, Humana and out-of-network/out of pocket payments. I offer pharmacogenetic testing and expert consultation for patients who have tried medications before but they didn't work. After nearly 25 years of medical practice, I've earned the right to say "I got skills" and I'm also a very kind person. "Dr. Kline, you are Kind," somebody recently gave me this compliment. "Kind?" I asked, forgetting for a second how people experience me. "Yeah," she smiled, "It's a pretty good trait for a doctor." That reminded me how I was nicknamed "Dr. Kind" instead of Dr. Kline back in residency at UCHealth. When you enter my practice as a new patient, you get access to my genuine impulse to help and nuanced, sophisticated skills built over the many years I've been a physician! Together, we build a life-changing treatment plan to, right away lessen your symptoms, and over time eliminate what is causing you suffering, anguish and pain. I feel lucky and am happy to help people live better lives with the information I have learned and what I know how to teach.

Denver's outdoor culture and apparent wellness orientation coexist with high rates of depression, anxiety, and substance use — a tension many locals recognize. The city's rapid growth and housing pressures have intensified stress for longtime residents and newcomers alike, and therapists frequently address adjustment, relationship strain, and burnout tied to the city's boom-era pace. Denver has a significant veteran population given proximity to several military installations, and therapists specializing in military trauma and PTSD are well represented. UCHealth and SCL Health provide major institutional anchors alongside Denver's large and well-established independent therapy community.
