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.

Iam Jophiel, MPS, LCSW, SEP, CCTP-II
Therapist, @ Rubie Red Slippers
As a Liberation Therapist, helping you in achieving the freedom to be fully accepting of yourSelf is my passion. I combine cognitive, somatic & energy-based services, to provide a balanced therapeutic approach to assisting you with mental, emotional and physical challenges that can present as anxiety, fear-based thinking, over-analyzing, self-criticalness, depression, codependency, low self-esteem and other trauma-based symptoms.
At times, the process of slowing down can feel scary, but as you learn to identify beliefs & narratives that no longer serve you; compassionately recondition your mind; and tenderly care for your body you will notice a change. You can know your authentic Self and experience embodied healing.
The healing journey is a soul driven (mind, body and spirit) heart-centered process that continually invites you to know yourself as magical, allowing, resilient, fertile, integrative, safe and loved.

Dr. Sheena Sikorski
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist
Do you constantly feel like you're never good enough? Do you feel like you compare yourself to other people and think they're so much better looking or smarter than you? Do you feel like you have to wear a mask and pretend you're someone you're not just to get people to like you, not leave you, or reject you?

If you're ready to roll up your sleeves and put in the work to find and use your voice to share your opinions and needs, feel safe being vulnerable to deepen your emotional connections, and learn how to compassionately hold yourself accountable when you make a mistake, this CAN be your reality with the scientifically based tools you'll learn working with me as your guide.
