Brittany Bouffard, LCSW, CYT

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CYT
You deserve to feel perfectly enough in life, by learning to cope with a difficult childhood, a traumatic experience, or grieving a loved one. With any of these hardships, knowing your own emotions and needs can prove daunting. You might overwork, people-please, self-criticize, or over-caretake. You likely have feelings from the past that are tough to process. Therapy is a wonderful place for support in becoming your whole self with less stress. Please see much more below about working together around Childhood Difficulties & Trauma, Acute Traumas, or Grief & Loss.

Arvada, Colorado therapist: Jillian Lees, licensed clinical social worker
Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Jillian Lees

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
My therapeutic approach focuses on the whole person. Specifically, working with female millennial clients. We carry many different identities within ourselves. I want to assist, through a strengths' based approach, on how you can feel better and obtain greater awareness of your thoughts and behaviors, and why we think and act in certain ways. I work in a collaborative manner with clients, on what may work best for their individual healing. My therapeutic approaches include solutions focused, humanistic, and mindfulness. But I tailor therapy sessions to the individual person, so some therapeutic approaches may be outside of this box.

Danielle Martinelli-Taylor

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, EMDRIA
Ready to find healing and talk less? Your anxious spirals and "sudden" triggers are signs that there are painful memories and potential trauma remembered in the body. This requires a holistic & body-based (somatic) approach. I offer EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), or a somatic movement model (bilateral boxing) to engage with the deeper parts of your brainstem to help remove the blockage and lessen the present disruptive symptoms. Reach out to find out more!

Denver, Colorado therapist: Denver Wellness Counseling, licensed professional counselor
Internal Family Systems (IFS)

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.

Tori Buckley

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I mostly work with clients living and loving in unconventional ways (including artists, entrepreneurs, highly sensitive people & spiritual types) and work to cultivate a safe place for all people, most frequently working with clients in queer, ethically non-monogamous, & kinky relationships.  Most of my clients are wanting to work on issues mostly unrelated to but within the context of these communities and lifestyles, and are tired of spending so much time explaining the context to therapists unfamiliar with their world.  I also work with folks looking to explore these aspects of themselves for the first time.

Olympia, Washington therapist: Tara Murphy, psychologist
Internal Family Systems (IFS)

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, Colorado therapist: Nadia Rae Brackett, licensed professional counselor
Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Nadia Rae Brackett

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, CCTP-II, iEQ9-I
I offer depth-oriented, trauma-informed therapy for adults who feel anxious, emotionally overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves despite years of insight, effort, or traditional therapy. Many of the people I work with struggle with chronic people-pleasing, low self-esteem, self-doubt, and a deep lack of trust in the world. These patterns are often rooted in early childhood trauma, emotional neglect, or attachment wounds. Rather than treating symptoms as disorders to be managed, my work is grounded in the belief that anxiety, emotional overwhelm, dreams, and unconscious material are meaningful messengers. They are expressions of a nervous system and psyche shaped by survival and longing to be heard. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, listen inwardly, and work at a level of depth where lasting transformation becomes possible. Our work may include relational trauma healing, somatic awareness, and dreamwork to support nervous system regulation, self-trust, and reconnection with your authentic self. If you are high-functioning yet inwardly exhausted, tired of coping, and longing for therapy that honors the wisdom of your inner world, I offer a grounded, attuned, and curious space that supports a deeper connection to yourself, your emotions, and your inner knowing.
