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.

Denver Wellness Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Here at Denver Wellness Counseling, our therapists prioritize both the importance of the therapeutic relationship and the need for research-backed interventions so clients can finally make the gains they are hoping for. Many of our clients find us after years of "talk therapy" and a readiness to do "deeper work." We are happy to help and know how to guide that process.
Our therapists specialize in EMDR therapy, which they thoughtfully combine with other modalities to meet the unique needs of their clients. Therapy can look a number of ways, but will typically include tools for building self-awareness, cultivating internal sources of strength, healing old wounds (EMDR), and integrating treatment gains into present day systems and relationships.
Yes, we consider ourselves "trauma" therapists, yet we purposely expand the trauma definition to include ANY life event that has shifted one's sense of safety, choice (control), or identity. We work to help clients heal wounding from any developmental stage of life, even those that occurred prior to explicit memory (pre-verbal experiences), or recent events from the past few weeks or months.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hey Survivor, are you tired of feeling guilty and overwhelmed all the time? Everyone else seems so together and you're stuck battling your past? I get it. My name is Rebecca Castle-Waller and I help badass women with trauma become present in their lives and in their relationships, so you can actually enjoy this life you've built.
Many of my clients grew up in chaotic and unstable homes where from a young age they started taking care of others. Making meals, waking their parents up for work, getting their siblings off to school. From there, you went on to take care of your partner and your kiddos while also working hard to keep everything running smoothly. Now with work and relationships and family drama and life you feel constantly stressed out and like you should be doing more. Oh, and you're doing all of this while facing nightmares, flashbacks, numbness, random waves of anger, and the like. Who's taking care of you?
Let's give you a space where you can be your messy, imperfect self so you can finally take care of you. It's time to heal your trauma, you've built an amazing life and you deserve to actually live it.

Nadia Rae Brackett
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, CCTP-II, iEQ9-I
I offer depth-oriented, trauma-informed therapy for adults who feel anxious, emotionally overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves despite years of insight, effort, or traditional therapy. Many of the people I work with struggle with chronic people-pleasing, low self-esteem, self-doubt, and a deep lack of trust in the world. These patterns are often rooted in early childhood trauma, emotional neglect, or attachment wounds.
Rather than treating symptoms as disorders to be managed, my work is grounded in the belief that anxiety, emotional overwhelm, dreams, and unconscious material are meaningful messengers. They are expressions of a nervous system and psyche shaped by survival and longing to be heard. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, listen inwardly, and work at a level of depth where lasting transformation becomes possible. Our work may include relational trauma healing, somatic awareness, and dreamwork to support nervous system regulation, self-trust, and reconnection with your authentic self. If you are high-functioning yet inwardly exhausted, tired of coping, and longing for therapy that honors the wisdom of your inner world, I offer a grounded, attuned, and curious space that supports a deeper connection to yourself, your emotions, and your inner knowing.
