Lauren Jensen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Welcome, I hope we can meet and work together to help you feel empowered, learn new ways to cope, and find fulfillment in your own story. I get how hard it can be to feel stuck with the struggles in life that never seem to go away or improve, and I believe change is possible. I specialize in supporting people surrounding difficult life transitions and grief/loss and help clients reduce anxiety, depression, and stress so that they can take steps to live life more aligned with their values. Examples include supporting clients with baby loss or miscarriage, anticipatory grief, health concerns, relationship changes such as divorce, and secondary trauma. My offering is solutions-focused and strengths-based and includes mindfulness as well as practical skills for self-care and self-compassion. I believe you have the wisdom within you and that you are strong and brave no matter how difficult things seem to you at this point in time. Let's work together - please feel free to reach out to me and we can talk.

I help people to have compassion for themselves and understand patterns of thinking and behavior that hold them back from change.

Jillian Lees
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
My therapeutic approach focuses on the whole person. Specifically, working with female clients. We carry many different identities within ourselves. I want to assist, through a strengths' based approach, on how you can feel better and obtain greater awareness of your thoughts and behaviors, and why we think and act in certain ways. I work in a collaborative manner with clients, on what may work best for their individual healing. My therapeutic approaches include solutions focused, humanistic, and mindfulness. But I tailor therapy sessions to the individual person, so some therapeutic approaches may be outside of this box.

Naya Clinics Denver
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Counselors
Hi, I’m Sam, founder of Naya Clinics
I spent 20+ years studying and working with human behavior, human performance, and organizational behavior. I lived, studied and worked in half a dozen countries around the world and my work experience spans varying industries and disciplines from counseling and business to marketing and sports.
It is this diverse and multi cultural work and life experience that I drew on as I developed Positive Existential Therapy (PET). Positive Existential Therapy PET is client centered and designed to give you results. It is a radical departure from how therapy has come to be, and it works.
My team and myself invite you to experience our avant-garde marriage counseling, therapy, and life coaching services in our locations in Cincinnati, Columbus, Indianapolis , and Denver.

Anastasia Mitchell
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor, Art Therapist
As a therapist, I think it is crucial to have a strong supportive environment. The therapeutic relationship is what allows for progress which is built on trust. I take time to get to know the people I work with in order to understand their background and what they are bringing into each session. I value and respect the people I work with and their narrative.

Sarah J Thompson
Counselor/Therapist, MEd, LPC
Have you ever seen the image of a client laying on the couch while the therapist asks in a quiet and serious tone: tell me how that makes you feel...I can assure you that is not me! Although we will dive into your feelings and emotions, I do not fit the caricature of a therapist.
I am in the business of assisting to heal relationships - with yourself or loved ones - from the inside out. Together we will lay out the "puzzle pieces" of your life and look at the entire picture together. One by one, I will help you put the entire puzzle together.
