Counseling for Individuals and Couples in Golden and Boulder
Online telehealth in Colorado and Idaho
You might be doing pretty well. And still not be doing well.
You may be someone who has spent a lot of your life being capable, thoughtful, independent, and responsible. You take care of people. You think deeply. You get things done.
And yet, something isn't quite right.
You may be stuck in a relationship pattern you can't seem to break. You may feel disconnected from yourself or your partner. You may be wondering why things that seem easy for other people feel so hard for you.
Or maybe you simply have a sense that there's more to your life than the way you're currently living it.
We don't have to sit around and talk about your problems forever. Therapy with me is active and relational. I pay attention to what is happening in the room—not just what you're telling me about what happened last week.
When anger, fear, shutdown, or old patterns take over, we slow things down. We get curious about what's underneath the reaction. And we practice something different.
You don't need another person to tell you what's wrong with you. You need the opportunity to experience yourself or your partnership differently.

Hi, I'm Emily. I work with adults and couples in Golden and Boulder, CO, and online in Colorado and Idaho.
I'm a PACT Level 2 couples therapist, and have worked extensively (think thousands of nights) in wilderness settings that demand creativity and calm. I'm married with kids, and get the messiness of adulthood. I won't flinch when things get uncomfortable, and I won't bullshit you. I'll be warm, I'll be curious, I'll laugh with you, and when something needs to be said, I'll say it. I don't have a formula for your life. I'll help you get honest about what's happening and figure out what you want to do next. Couples: Partnership is one of the hardest things we take on as adults. We expect ourselves to know how to do it, but most of us were never actually taught. I support couples in building good lives together. Individuals: For people who are thoughtful and self-aware but still find themselves stuck in patterns they can't think their way out of. Men: Therapy for men who want a therapist who can be direct, engaged, and real with them. Outdoor Athletes and Professionals: For outdoor athletes and professionals who care deeply about what they do, while also navigating pressure, change, relationships, or questions about what comes next. Wilderness and Nature: Sometimes getting outside your usual environment creates room for something new to emerge. My work has deep roots in the natural world. You don't have to know exactly what's wrong. You don't need to arrive with a diagnosis, a five-year plan, or even a clear idea of what you want therapy to accomplish. You just need to know that something isn't working—and be willing to get curious about why. Let's see what might be possible. |
