I help clients move through major life changes—expected or unexpected—with greater clarity and emotional support. This includes processing change, managing uncertainty, and finding stability during in-between seasons of life.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people whose lives have been disrupted or reshaped in ways that ask real questions about who they are now. This might include graduating and stepping into adult life, feeling unsure about next steps in a demanding career, becoming a parent or adding a child, separation or divorce, major shifts in important relationships, retirement, moves that change your community, health changes, or later‑life questions about how you want to live the time ahead. Even wanted or carefully planned changes can feel disorienting. You might notice old patterns resurfacing, feel pulled between different parts of yourself, or find that what used to motivate you no longer does. People around you may expect you to be excited, grateful, or to “figure it out,” while inside you feel unsettled, numb, or unsure which way to go. In our work together, we focus on helping your nervous system and daily life stabilize enough to move through this transition, while also exploring the deeper questions of meaning, purpose, and identity that it brings up. We pay attention to what is ending, what is beginning, and what feels most true for you now, so the change you are living through can become more grounded and more aligned with a life that actually fits you.

Ryan Ramsey
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I’m a real guy. Not stuffy. Not pretentious. And I sure as hell don’t know everything. You’re looking for a therapist who you can relate to, who will really hear you and get you, and who won’t judge you. I’m that guy.
I am highly trained and experienced in my work but, at the end of the day, being an authentic human is more important than anything else. I will help you feel comfortable being yourself, opening up at your pace, and processing and making sense of what you’re going through. We’ll explore what you feel, how you think, how you relate to yourself, and work towards helping you feel more comfortable in your own skin and more confident in your ability to meet any challenge life may throw at you.
You are welcome to reach out to me by email or you may also book an initial consultation through my website. I am happy to answer any questions you may have about me or therapy in general and I look forward to talking with you.

I combine experiential and dynamic elements to heal emotional trauma. I help you access and transform stuck emotional patterns, and integrate positive experiences into your sense of yourself.
Together, we work to create a secure, empathic environment where you feel safe enough to explore your emotions. I work to create an attunement to your emotional state, allowing you to form a deep connection based on trust and support.
We work together to heal emotional wounds, including past experiences of trauma, anxiety, and depression.

Amanda Etienne
Psychologist, Psy.D
Even good changes can bring up grief, identity confusion, or a strange kind of emptiness you didn't expect. I help you make sense of what's shifting, understand what you're actually grieving or afraid of, and find your footing again without rushing the process.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
I work with men and women going through major life changes on keeping it together, finding clarity, processing grief/loss and defining new goals. We use a variety of modalities to bring new truths to the surface and uncover powerful new discoveries about who we are and what we want out of life, along with what brings us the greatest feelings of reward, meaning and purpose. We use a variety of modalities for this, including pineal gland breathing, which is highly effective at changing chemical states from fear to joy in only a few minutes. Clients find this highly effective if they wake up in the morning dreading the day. With it, is a return to safety and hope is reborn.

Change is hard, whether it's planned or unplanned. It's normal to question yourself or your situation, and to feel a full spectrum of emotions. I would be honored to support you in navigating this season of your life - I share concrete tools and skills that help with regulation, while also encouraging deeper self-understanding and self-compassion.

Avery Wageman Passion Flower Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Life transitions—whether expected or unexpected—can bring uncertainty, stress, and emotional overwhelm. Changes such as starting or ending a relationship, moving, graduating, entering adulthood, shifting careers, or navigating changes in family dynamics can leave you feeling unsteady or unsure of what comes next.
Avery provides a supportive and grounding space to help you process these changes at your own pace. Together, you’ll explore your emotions, clarify your values, and build coping strategies to help you adjust with greater confidence and resilience. The focus is on helping you feel more centered, supported, and empowered as you move through periods of change and growth.

Brittany Wingfield
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Life transitions can bring excitement, uncertainty, and unexpected challenges. Whether you’re navigating a major change, a new season of life, loss, or personal growth, therapy provides a supportive space to process your emotions, gain perspective, and develop the tools needed to move forward with confidence. You don’t have to navigate change alone.

Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Life transitions can place unexpected stress on even the strongest relationships. Changes such as marriage, parenthood, career shifts, relocation, grief, caregiving, retirement, or changes in identity and priorities can impact communication, emotional connection, and daily routines. Gottman Method couples therapy helps partners navigate these transitions together by actively guiding conversations into deeper understanding of each partner's dreams to create a shared dream and direction. Through evidence-based tools and guided conversations, couples learn how to manage stress more effectively, strengthen emotional intimacy, and adapt to change while staying connected as a team.
The most common life transition that I help couples navigate is the "empty nest." Many people find themselves lonely and resentful at this stage of life and come into therapy to find themselves, their partner, and a new dream of a life together.

Aurora is one of Colorado's most ethnically diverse cities and home to Buckley Space Force Base, creating a therapy community shaped by both military families and a remarkably multicultural civilian population that includes large communities from East Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America. The city's proximity to Denver and its own rapidly expanding healthcare sector — anchored by Children's Hospital Colorado and UCHealth University of Colorado Hospital on the Anschutz Medical Campus — give it significant institutional mental health resources and a large population of healthcare workers navigating occupational stress. Therapists experienced with military trauma, refugee resettlement, and bicultural identity serve distinct and important roles in Aurora's clinical landscape. The city's rapid growth has accelerated demand for therapists who specialize in life transitions and the challenges of building community in a fast-changing suburban environment.
