Cedric Reeves
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC
Dissociation is largely the result of fear, feeling unsafe, or experiencing danger and not having anyone to turn to in that moment. As a result dissociation becomes a go-to defense mechanism. We'll work through this experientially to bring about healing. When the unresolved trauma is resolved usually the dissociation will also resolve. This does take some dedicated work. But it's worth it.

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.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who feel disconnected from themselves in ways that can be hard to explain. Dissociation can look like going through the motions on autopilot, feeling far away or unreal, losing track of time when you’re stressed, or noticing that your emotions and body feel muted, numb, or out of sync. Some people describe it as feeling foggy, checked out, or like they’re watching their life from the outside. Many people I see function well in work or school while privately feeling detached or not fully present. You may have learned to shut down, go quiet inside, or “check out” to get through overwhelming situations, and those strategies can persist long after the original stress has passed. These patterns often develop in situations where you had to stay small, stay calm, or stay invisible to feel safe. Over time, dissociation can shape how you relate to yourself, how you make decisions, and how close you allow others to get. You may find it hard to trust your internal signals, access your emotions, or feel connected to your own preferences and needs. In our work together, we approach dissociation with respect for the ways it has protected you. We look at what your nervous system learned to do under pressure, how these patterns show up now, and what helps you feel more grounded and present without overwhelming the parts of you that have relied on distance to stay safe. The goal is not to get rid of dissociation, but to help you understand it, reduce its cost, and build a steadier connection to yourself so you can move through your life with more clarity, choice, and a deeper sense of being “here” in your own life.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Dissociation is often the mind’s way of surviving overwhelming or repeated trauma. I have experience working with military members, children in the foster care system with complex trauma, and adults healing from childhood neglect or abuse—contexts where dissociation often develops as a protective response. I use IFS, trauma-informed approaches, somatic awareness, mindfulness, and psychodynamic work to help clients build safety, grounding, and integration at their own pace. My diagnostic expertise supports careful differentiation between dissociation, PTSD, psychosis, or mood disorders, and I collaborate with prescribers when appropriate to ensure comprehensive care.

Danielle Martinelli-Taylor

Working with PTSD and C-PTSD leads to walking with clients in dissociative states and experiencing dissociative disorder. Through compassion, understanding, and IFS, grounding is first established as the journey toward integration and healing is walked through.

Jon Roberts
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, EMDR
Dissociative experiences (including DID/OSDD) are brilliant protective strategies that kept you alive in extreme circumstances. My approach combines IFS- and Ego State-informed parts work with specialized EMDR protocols tailored for structural dissociation. Honoring the lived experience of you and all your parts or alters, we first prioritize building internal stability, communication, and trust. Intentionally working within your window of tolerance, we then use protective tools like fractionation and the Flash technique to process trauma without destabilizing your daily life. Together we work to move you out of exhausting internal warfare and into a cooperative, peaceful, and unique co-consciousness.
If you have spent years feeling misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or dismissed by the medical system, you are not alone. I utilize specialized, evidence-based assessment tools—including the Multidimensional Inventory of Dissociation (MID)—to help us objectively map your experiences. We won't slap a lazy label on your pain. Instead, we use these tools to understand the exact structure of your nervous system's defenses, providing a clear, validating roadmap for your healing journey.

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.
