Online Counseling for Women with Anxiety in Colorado

You’ve always been a hard-worker, even as a child. Setting goals for yourself and your future has always been easy for you. And, you've always done everything in your power to achieve your goals. Sometimes, the pressure you put on yourself causes you to feel very stressed or worried. In fact, this stress has turned into overwhelming anxiety. You dreamed of a life with a good career, a loving spouse, and a family, but you never saw having constant anxiety as part of that dream. You never anticipated the overwhelming feeling and exhaustion that comes from being a woman who “does it all.”

Taking Care of yourself while taking care of everyone else seems impossible

You do so much for everyone, but you often feel on edge. Maybe, you are trying to balance your family’s needs with the demands of your job. When you stop and think about all the things you have to do and the expectations everyone else has for you, your heart starts to race, your muscles tense, and you feel sick to your stomach. You are completely overwhelmed. So, when are you supposed to care for yourself?  

Your girlfriends used to be the people you’d go to when life felt hard. But, they’re overwhelmed and busy, too, so you can’t always depend on them to provide the support you need. The women you follow on social media don’t seem to struggle; they have it all together. You often compare yourself to them, even though you know their accounts aren’t accurate portrayals of their real lives. So, you keep your emotional pain to yourself and think, “I should be able to get through this on my own.” You feel alone because you're not sure if anyone else feels the same way you do.

No One Understands the Pain and Anxiety You Feel

You’ve even tried to open up to your spouse about your anxious thoughts. But, their only real words of comfort are, “Just stop thinking about it.” Ultimately, this doesn’t help and instead, leaves you feeling more frustrated.

You’re overwhelmed and at your breaking point. Something needs to change, but where do you start? How are you supposed to take care of yourself while also taking care of everyone else’s needs? 

Online therapy in Colorado can Help you find healing

Here is the truth: Life does not have to be so hard! Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, grief or loss, being a military spouse, or the aftermath of trauma, I can help. I provide online therapy to help Colorado women who are dealing with anxiety or depression. My goal is to help you learn to cope with the things that are causing you pain. Together, we work to heal any emotional wounds and find ways to cope that bring peace and wholeness. 

I am a Colorado online therapist who specializes in helping women

Regardless of if you work outside the home, from your home, or are a stay-at-home mom, making time for yourself is so important. But, the reality is, that finding the time to go to therapy can be a real challenge. I’ve been there and can completely relate! That’s why I specialize in providing online therapy for women in the state of Colorado.

I understand the challenges of finding a therapist in Colorado, especially if you live in smaller towns like Estes Park, Telluride, or Aspen. It might feel almost impossible to find a therapist who doesn't have an office halfway across town. Perhaps, you can’t find a counselor in Grand Junction or Fort Collins that you enjoy working with. Also, I know that military bases such as Fort Carson, Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Station, Peterson Air Force Bace, Schriever Air Force Base, or Pueblo Chemical Depot Army Base may not have mental health professionals who are experienced in working with women. Also if you live in busy Colorado Springs or the Denver suburbs, you may not want to have to sit in traffic for 45 minutes each way just to go to therapy.

The last thing you need is adding something to your schedule that takes too much time out of your day. Therapy appointments shouldn't add to the list of things causing you stress. Online counseling allows you to have your therapy session wherever you feel comfortable. We can have a therapy session when you are at home, at the office, or even in the car. Online counseling allows us to meet at a time that works best for you. 

I am passionate about supporting women with anxiety and depression, mothers, online therapy for military spouses, women who are grieving, and women who have survived trauma.

My goals is to help you find relief from your stress and ways to manage the things that create anxiety in your life. To work toward this goal, I use a combination of therapies to support you on your journey towards emotional wellness. 

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT is a short-term therapy that aims to challenge and change negative thoughts that cause pain and teach positive coping techniques.

• Mindfulness: the practice of being in the present moment through guided meditation and relaxation techniques.

• Narrative Therapy: a method of therapy that helps you separate yourself from your problems. You will learn how to use the skills you already have to cope with your issues and re-frame your life story.

• Trauma Therapy/ Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT): therapeutic techniques developed to help you cope with trauma.

• Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)/Tapping: EFT involves tapping fingertips on meridian points to help relieve physical and emotional pain.
