Christy A McCornack
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
My approach to therapy is one that is based on a deep respect and understanding for the courage it takes to seek support through therapy. I believe that we are most happy when we live a life that is consistent with our values. This allows us to create a meaningful life in the face of the many challenges that life can present to us. My approach is strength-based and insight focused, meaning we will focus on what you do well, what matters to you, and bringing awareness to you as a whole person. For example, we will attend to feelings, thoughts, and body sensations in our sessions, with the intention of bringing more awareness of how you experience the world so you can begin to make more informed decisions and make the changes that will bring you more happiness and peace in your life.

Ryan Ramsey
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Being authentic matters to me. I show up as a real person in the therapy room, and I want you to feel like you can do the same. My goal is to create a space where you can be yourself, open up, and unpack everything you’ve been carrying: the stress, the thoughts you keep to yourself, the experiences you’ve been through, and all the stuff life has handed you. When people feel safe enough to be honest and real, that’s when therapy really helps.
I’m informal, down-to-earth, and easy to talk to. I believe that the relationship between us is far more important than any technique or theory. When you feel comfortable, understood, and really seen, you’re more likely to take risks, speak your truth, and make real changes.
That said, I do bring strong clinical training when it’s useful. I have advanced training in Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy from the Albert Ellis Institute in New York. REBT is one tool in my toolbox and something we can use to help you understand and challenge your thoughts, shift unhelpful patterns, and create new ways of responding to stress, relationships, and life in general. But therapy with me isn’t rigid or overly structured. It’s a conversation. It’s two humans sitting down, figuring things out together.
If you’re motivated to change, to feel better, to understand yourself more deeply, or to get clearer about where you want your life to go, I can help you.

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.

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.

Dr. Trey Cole
Psychologist, Psy.D., ABPP, DAAETS
Therapy, at its best, is a space where you can slow down, turn inward, and begin to understand yourself more fully. My role is to walk alongside you in that process — with honesty, care, and deep respect for your experience.
I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My approach draws from CBT, ACT, trauma-focused therapy, and existential therapy, always tailored to what feels most useful for you. But more than any particular method, I believe healing happens through genuine connection — when you feel truly seen and understood.
Together, we'll explore the patterns, emotions, and beliefs that shape how you move through the world. We'll build practical tools where you need them, and make space for the deeper questions when those matter more. My hope is that our work helps you relate to yourself with greater compassion, and to your life with greater clarity and intention.

I specialize in helping couples and individuals navigate the complex territory of relationships, with themselves and each other.

I believe that real change happens when we feel truly met, and I bring both clinical depth and genuine human warmth to every session.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients reduce anxiety, stress, confusion, sadness, and pain - so that they can live more fulfilling, authentic, and happy lives. Many of my clients have stated that coming to therapy has helped to catapult them out of their stagnation - enabling them to reach their full potential. For clients who have had difficulty finding a therapist who can understand their complex and intersecting identities, I can be a breath of fresh air. I work with folks ages 15 and up.

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.

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.

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.

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.
