Andrew Goldin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LAC
I work with men looking to show up differently in their personal and professional lives. Many of the men I work with haven't tried individual therapy in the past or are frustrated when they haven't seen progress in past treatment. It is also common for men to seek out services when marriage counseling or feedback from loved ones has them questioning how their mood, temper, attention, thinking patterns, and behaviors are impacting others.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
CURRENTLY ACCEPTING WAITLIST CLIENTS
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.

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.

Todd Kline
Psychiatrist, Medical Doctorate, MD
Hey! I'm Dr. Todd Kline and welcome to my private practice. I offer evaluations and ongoing treatment within about 2-3 weeks -- sometimes sooner since I'm expanding my private practice to full time. I treat Adults and Adolescents primarily with Psychotherapy and Medications, specializing in Anxiety/Panic, Depression, Grief, Life Transitions, Mood illnesses and Attention Deficit Disorder. I take Anthem/BCBS, Cigna, Medicare, Medicaid, United, Aetna, Humana and out-of-network/out of pocket payments. I offer pharmacogenetic testing and expert consultation for patients who have tried medications before but they didn't work. After nearly 25 years of medical practice, I've earned the right to say "I got skills" and I'm also a very kind person. "Dr. Kline, you are Kind," somebody recently gave me this compliment. "Kind?" I asked, forgetting for a second how people experience me. "Yeah," she smiled, "It's a pretty good trait for a doctor." That reminded me how I was nicknamed "Dr. Kind" instead of Dr. Kline back in residency at UCHealth. When you enter my practice as a new patient, you get access to my genuine impulse to help and nuanced, sophisticated skills built over the many years I've been a physician! Together, we build a life-changing treatment plan to, right away lessen your symptoms, and over time eliminate what is causing you suffering, anguish and pain. I feel lucky and am happy to help people live better lives with the information I have learned and what I know how to teach.

Real Therapists Group
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LAC
I'm Jason Polk, LCSW, LAC — a licensed clinical social worker, couples therapist, and addiction counselor with over a decade of experience helping individuals and couples build more connected, resilient lives. My journey into this work began in my own relationships, including a painful divorce that showed me firsthand how easy it is to get stuck in patterns of disconnection and misunderstanding. Those experiences didn’t just shape my career — they fuel it.
I’m trained in Relational Life Therapy (RLT), Level II PACT (Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy), Clini-Coach® methods, and other relational frameworks that help people understand not just what is hurting but also why—and how to move toward trust, safety, and genuine connection.
I work with couples and individuals facing communication challenges, trust injuries, life transitions, the impact of addiction on relationships, and daily stresses that quietly weaken closeness. I believe therapy should be honest, grounded, and compassionate — a space where insight leads to real-world change.

Michael Lockwood of Scene Creative Life Solutions
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW
Most men who reach out to me aren’t falling apart, they’re holding everything together while feeling numb, overwhelmed, or disconnected inside. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. You don’t need perfect words or a dramatic story to work with me. You just need the truth of where you are.
My work is grounded, direct, patient, and honest. I help men explore the deeper layers of identity, trauma, shame, and relationships, the things you were never given the space to talk about. I’m not here to lecture you or nod quietly. I’m here to help you understand yourself in a way that finally makes sense and opens something inside you that’s been shut for a long time.
If you’re ready for therapy that actually means something, I’m here for you.

Johanna Wood, Leap Counseling and Consultation
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I specialize in exposure-based therapies for OCD and anxiety disorders. My clients typically have tried therapy before, but have not seen much improvement. They continue living in fear, anxiety, and guilt, as their lives continue getting smaller and smaller. This is because OCD and most anxiety disorders require specialized treatment. Coping skills are great, but they can only get you so far. The good news is, there are science-backed treatments for OCD and for anxiety that actually work. If you're ready to stop coping and start living, take a leap of faith and reach out.
My style is structured and balances use of the latest science with compassion and understanding. My goal is to make you feel heard, and feel challenged. I serve adults with primary issues of OCD and anxiety, and I also address co-occurring depression, insomnia, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and trauma, using cognitive-behavioral therapies. I address all forms of OCD and anxiety, but I have a special interest in scrupulosity (religious- and moral-based) OCD. I love helping people stop letting their OCD hijack their sources of meaning and get back to having faith in faith again.

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.

Soulful Steps, LLC - Jenna Kapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
What makes my practice special is the way I strive to create a space where you can feel safe, seen, and truly yourself. I know how important it is to feel comfortable with your therapist, so I focus on building a genuine connection rooted in warmth, trust, and respect.
I don’t believe therapy should feel distant or clinical—it should feel human. I meet each person where they are, honoring their story and moving at a pace that feels right for them. Together, we explore what’s been feeling heavy, what’s getting in the way, and what healing and growth might look like for you.
My approach blends compassion with practical support, helping you not only gain insight but also feel more equipped in your day-to-day life. Whether you’re navigating stress, transitions, self-esteem, or relationships, my hope is that you leave feeling a little more grounded, understood, and supported than when you came in.

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.
