Internal Family Systems
New Foundation Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Dealing with trauma and past hurts, struggling with work, relationships, or addiction, managing depression & anxiety or to better understand one's gender identity or sexuality - it isn't easy to address any of these things. We see therapy as a safe, judgment-free, shame-free, and confidential space, where you are free to vent, confide, cry, discuss, imagine, find strength, and be empowered. Most importantly, therapy is a place for hope to come alive, to learn new coping skills, to achieve personal growth, and to discover you are strong, valuable, and greater than any struggle you might have. Transformation is possible!
We realize meeting with a clinician can be anxiety-provoking and can even feel stressful. It does not need to be. We understand how finances, relationships, children, family, & work can create anxiety, worries, stress and even anger. You don't need to live being "weighed down" by these things - therapy can help lessen your burden! You are worth it!

Mike Garrison
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC
I wasn't always a therapist - I have worked in the Fortune 500 and have also owned my own small business. In fact, I have nearly three decades of practical experience and hard-earned insights that I bring to every conversation. You’ll experience a fresh perspective through real-world conversation, appropriate challenging, positivity, and gentle humor.

Ruth Weinberg
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I have nearly 20 years of experience working with clients of all ages on a range of issues including relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem, shame, disordered eating and stress related to toxic work and family environments. Many of my clients are survivors of physical, sexual and/or narcissistic abuse. These painful experiences require courage and compassion to heal from.
Every person has the ability to grow, heal, and thrive. Life's challenges can lead us to lose hope or to believe that we are broken or damaged, but this is untrue! Our true nature and potential may seem absent or hidden but it is there and it cannot be destroyed. By uncovering and rediscovering our strengths and abilities, we can overcome challenges, find meaning and purpose, and live more fulfilling lives. Through the self-discovery process we can learn to find understanding and compassion for even the most feared and hated parts of ourselves.
My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming.

Sarah J Thompson
Counselor/Therapist, MEd, LPC
Have you ever seen the image of a client laying on the couch while the therapist asks in a quiet and serious tone: tell me how that makes you feel...I can assure you that is not me! Although we will dive into your feelings and emotions, I do not fit the caricature of a therapist.
I am in the business of assisting to heal relationships - with yourself or loved ones - from the inside out. Together we will lay out the "puzzle pieces" of your life and look at the entire picture together. One by one, I will help you put the entire puzzle together.

I invite you to join with me in your journey of creating meaningful change in your life. We all face difficult life challenges at some point, and receiving compassion and support can make all the difference. Whether you or a family member have encountered a recent challenge that has led you "off course" or if you have experienced a lifetime of pain, we can work together to develop healthier patterns of thoughts, feelings, behaviors and interactions to increase inner peace. I will support you in reaching your own definition of success.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and have had the honor of working in the mental health community since 1998. I have been in private practice since 2004. I enjoy living in the beautiful Colorado mountains and love nature, as it provides a sense of peace and calm for me. I am the mother of three adult sons, married for 23 years and have been a resident of Colorado for 30 years. I enjoy hiking, traveling and spending time with my family.

Susan Stone
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
I work with adults from every walk of life and in diverse circumstances. What nearly all have in common is that they tell me that things don’t feel manageable anymore. Life has gotten out of hand, and feelings like anxiety, self-doubt, depression, and disappointment seem to be taking over – if they haven’t already. Some might think they are “going crazy!” Others feel selfish because they crave self-care and a break from never being enough.
My job (and privilege) is to come alongside you to provide support, feedback, and help you better understand things and make plans to improve things. Sometimes, I will validate feelings that you’ve discounted or point out challenges you’ve grown so accustomed to that you brush them aside, even though they are part of what trips you up. Together, we’ll gain perspectives and insights about how to make things better.
In session, we will review the week for clues about what to focus on. We will talk about how things went and how they could have turned out better. I’ll ask many questions, listen a lot, and work with you to identify options for improving life. You’ll tear up sometimes, but you’ll be surprised how often we chuckle.

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.
