Therapists for college students near University of Colorado Boulder
You deserve a safe space where you have a voice and finally feel heard. Whether you are managing a chronic illness, emotional eating or trying to find your identity, a ton of emotions can come up that deserve to be validated and supported. Surprised to hear that? Don't be! I've learned so much from my own experiences and would love to guide you on your own journey! I have a passion for helping others take back control of their lives. We do so much every day that taking care of ourselves feels impossible! With a combination of life experience and education, I help individuals that feel as though they are alone find their path to healing.
I'm here to create a supportive and confidential space for your personal growth and well-being. As a licensed therapist, my approach integrates various therapeutic modalities to address a range of concerns. My work is client-centered and solution focused, combining EMDR, Internal Family Systems, and Emotional Focused Therapy. Whether you're navigating the complexities of mental health, seeking to improve relationships, exploring your identity, or working on personal and spiritual development, I'm dedicated to helping you on your journey.
I believe our emotional reactions are rarely random. When stress flares or we feel stuck, it often activates deeper attachment wounds, unmet needs, or patterns shaped by our relationships and systems. In the here & now, I help clients slow down, notice thoughts, emotions, & bodily sensations, exploring what’s truly holding them back. I approach therapy through a systemic, attachment-informed lens, integrating mindfulness & presence to foster self-awareness, self-compassion, & more intentional, authentic ways of relating to yourself & others.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder of Niyama Integrative Therapy. I provide trauma-informed therapy for adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and complex relational patterns. Many of the clients I work with are capable and high-functioning on the outside, while internally carrying chronic stress, unresolved trauma, or emotional exhaustion. You may be navigating burnout, relationship strain, identity shifts, or long-standing family dynamics that still shape how you move through the world.
Life can often present us with challenges that leave us feeling not like ourselves. Many of us seek to deepen connections to feel a sense of peace, wellness, and fulfillment in our lives, but don't know where to begin. I offer a holistic approach to therapy using evidence based practices, somatic/body techniques, mindfulness/meditation, & family systems techniques within an attachment framework. If you are experiencing changes/transitions, have concerns about self-esteem and identity, or experience stress, anxiety, depression or trauma, let's work together to provide you a space to process your experiences and sense of relief. I offer telehealth, office, and nature based sessions. The outdoors can offer a place of healing and rejuvenation. My practice utilizes nature to enhance the healing impacts of traditional talk therapy. I offer a walk-and-talk model that combines the freeing element of being outdoors with psychotherapy. Movement in the outdoors gives us the ability to access our emotions and process our experiences while feeling grounded and attuned to the moment. This can be a new and inspiring experience for those who have tried traditional office-based therapy and felt they needed something different or more dynamic.
Survivor of trauma. Struggling with addiction. Creative. Do at least two of these three describe you? If you're struggling to get sober, you're fearful about the impact sobriety might have on your creativity (and life in general). If you're in early sobriety, you're trying to gain your footing in a new landscape. If you're a trauma survivor, you're confused as to why your insight & sensitivity aren't helping you get to that light at the end of the tunnel. What do you do if your pain is too great to manage on your own? Working with me, you will be accepted & listened to carefully & perceptively. You will feel much more grounded & centered. I adapt my style to fit you and aim to treat you with a balance of gentleness and active encouragement.
If you're interested in working through childhood complexity or pain, or are wondering why present relationships sometimes feel dysfunctional or stressful, we'd likely be a great fit. Our time together will blend both past and present, and will help you learn what parts of your history are unconsciously influencing your present.
It’s tough to feel like yourself when you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, past trauma, or tension in your relationships. You might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure how to find your way back to balance. You deserve support and don’t have to face this on your own. I work with adults who want a gentle, supportive space to sort through what they’ve been carrying. My approach blends body-based and mindfulness practices in a way that helps you reconnect with your emotions and your body at a pace that feels safe and comfortable. I’m here to help you understand what’s happening beneath the surface, make meaning of your experiences, and build tools that actually support you in your day-to-day life. If this resonates with you, please reach out for a free consultation. We can talk about what you’re hoping for, what’s been feeling heavy, and how therapy might help you reconnect with yourself and regulate your nervous system.

I provide individual and couples psychotherapy and use a relational approach to collaboratively explore with clients ways we learn early in our lives to cope with uncomfortable emotions that often contribute to current problems. I specialize in working with people struggling in their close relationships and those committed to improving their understanding of their feelings and themselves. My ultimate hope and goal is to help clients to increase their capacity to respond to future challenges with more resilience, insight, and self compassion. People who tend to benefit the most from working with me in therapy often feel overwhelmed due to grief, loss, or trauma or have difficulty maintaining healthy, loving connections. I particularly enjoy helping clients looking to improve the quality of their close relationships and those interested in deepening their comfort with emotions. I also work quite a bit with individuals seeking ongoing personal growth and exploring how to live their most fulfilling and meaningful lives possible. I believe wholeheartedly we can lead happier and more fulfilling lives by exploring our deepest, most vulnerable emotions to discover our authentic selves. As a licensed psychologist my training and experience allow me to help clients overwhelmed by painful feelings or stressful life events along with those seeking ongoing personal growth and a deeper and more meaningful sense of contentment in their lives. I am honored to have the opportunity to work with people looking to develop healthy close relationships in a safe and compassionate environment.
I love working with college students. You are at an exciting pivot point in your life. Adjusting to college is both exciting and daunting. You may be dealing with social, cultural and academic stress as you adjust to a new environment. You may begin to look at your childhood and teen years from a new perspective. You may be thinking about the life you want to design for yourself moving forward, and the impact you want to make in the world. I have worked with student athletes and others juggling the demands of college life. In Colorado Springs, I work with students from Colorado College, UCCS, and Pikes Peak State College. I am happy to work with students from UC Boulder and Colorado School of Mines via Telehealth. I believe everyone has the capacity to heal and thrive, and sort out what's distressing or confusing you, including academic stress, romantic relationships, family relationships, friendships, and your relationship with yourself. I offer ways to understand and manage anxiety, depression, trauma, and identity issues. I am client-centered and take a holistic biopsychosocial approach. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship, and I use evidence-based practices and the latest scientific research to help you achieve relief, clarity, and joy.
I am a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist outside of Denver, CO. Most of my clinical experience has been treating eating disorders and other co-occurring addictive behaviors. However, individuals have come to me for a variety of concerns, including mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, women’s issues (including perinatal mental health), spirituality issues, blended family issues, and life transitions.

Hi! My clients appreciate that therapy with me is more than "just talking". We focus on real tools and skills that help issues with relationships, focusing, motivation, mood, and trauma. We have fun but also dig deep to heal wounds or re-wire the brain into healthier patterns. Live the life you are wanting!
Hello! I'm looking forward to meeting you. I am a therapist specializing in working with sexuality topics. Maybe you are looking for a therapist for a sexuality concern. Maybe you just want to see someone who "gets it" and will be affirming of everything that makes you uniquely you. Whatever the reason, I am excited to accompany you on this wellness journey you're taking! I bring great enthusiasm to my therapy and I am looking forward to helping you achieve your life's passions. I have immediate openings - we can get started soon without the wait.
Hi, I’m Christina Bame, LCSW and Registered Yoga Teacher. As a queer, biracial/mixed race, gender fluid, and neurodivergent therapist, I bring both personal and professional understanding to my work. I offer a trauma-informed, holistic approach that integrates the mind, body, and spirit in the healing process. My practice combines evidence-based methods like ACT and somatic therapy with creative modalities such as mindfulness, art, and movement. I am passionate about supporting clients navigating trauma, psychosis, and identity-based stressors—including racial, gender, and LGBTQ+ experiences—helping them find safety, empowerment, and reconnection to their authentic selves.
I work best with students who look like they’re holding it together but feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck on the inside. Many of the students I support are managing academic pressure, burnout, self-doubt, or the impact of past experiences while trying to keep up with school, work, and relationships. With nearly a decade of experience in mental health settings, I help students slow things down, make sense of what they’re feeling, and build tools that actually help in day-to-day life. Therapy with me is supportive, practical, and collaborative—a space where you don’t have to have it all figured out to get started.
I work with young women and LGBTQ+ folks with anxiety, perfectionism, and people-pleasing tendencies. You set goals for yourself that aren’t reachable, and you feel like you’re failing, though from the outside it may look like you have it together. You know that the patterns in your life aren’t working, yet it’s hard to identify what to change and make those changes on your own. It’s a big step to even recognize that you might benefit from therapy. Therapy can help you make those changes so that you can relate differently to yourself, your loved ones, and the stress & loss in your life. Healing doesn’t happen in isolation. Together, we can untangle old narratives, identify the things that aren’t working in your life, and develop new coping methods that work for you. Therapy depends on us developing a safe relationship from which we can explore your feelings and concerns. In our therapy sessions, you can expect compassion as well as a focus on practical skills on how to relate differently to the stress and loss in your life. I prioritize developing a safe relationship between the two of us in therapy, from which we discuss your relationships with yourself and with others. My practice is antiracist, LGBTQIA+ inclusive, and HAES informed. I have immediate openings for teletherapy and in-person therapy. In addition to my regular hours (8am-5pm), I can offer evening appointments upon request. You can schedule a free 15-minute video consultation at my website, sierralarsontherapy.com.
