I strive to create a warm and empowering space. I have a soft and direct, yet open-minded approach that helps clients show up authentically without fear of being judged.

Hi there! I'm Marissa Moss, a Licensed Professional Counselor here in Colorado, and I enjoy supporting my clients in peeling back the many layers of conditioning we have to reconnect with their true sense of self. My goal here is to create a space that feels safe and supportive for us to explore what is happening for you in the here-and-now and under the surface. I operate from a feedback-friendly approach and will create plenty of opportunities for you to share feedback so we can make sure that your voice is heard!

Struggling with relationships, self-worth, or navigating grief and loss? Whether you're working through attachment wounds, life transitions, or the impact of trauma, I offer a collaborative space to explore, heal, and grow. With experience in outpatient, inpatient, and psychiatric emergency care, I specialize in relational healing, self-acceptance, and supporting those affected by interpersonal trauma or unexpected loss. My approach balances deep insight with action, ensuring meaningful change while honoring your unique journey. Our work together begins with structured sessions to understand your history, then we shift to a flexible client-centered approach. I blend relational, cognitive-behavioral, and body-based techniques for nervous system regulation. My trauma-informed framework ensures an emotionally supportive, non-judgmental space tailored to your healing. With a warm and genuine style, I am committed to supporting you on your path to self-discovery, healing, and fulfillment. Currently offering virtual sessions. In-person options are to be provided beginning March 2025.

As a psychologist committed to strength-based approaches, I help clients recognize and utilize their existing knowledge and skills to create better lives. My work with clients both supports and challenges them, affirming who they are, what they believe, and how they think they can change. I take an approach that focuses much more on possibility than pathology, and as such, I help clients find creative ways to approach problems and develop personal stories that fulfill them. I consider it an honor to do the work I do, and I strive to not only respect, but enhance, clients' dignity. Creating professional relationships with clients founded in respect, caring, and a desire for positive outcomes, I utilize a wide range of techniques and theories to help clients reach their goals. I work with clients' natural ways of growing, and help them understand and improve how they think, feel, and act. When clients work with me, they find the strength within themselves to develop into who they want to be. I believe expertise on issues is co-created with clients, and in therapy, I strive for people to experience a wide range of feelings and thoughts, from sadness and longing to laughter and joy, so that they can lead their most fulfilling lives in the world.

Are you constantly worrying or overwhelmed? Are you expecting perfection from yourself? Are you finding yourself struggling to find balance in your life? Are you consistently feeling anxiety or thinking "what if"? Are you tired of the therapist that gives you the "smile and nod?". Me too! My practice is dedicated to enriching wellbeing and nourishing growth through integrative therapeutic approaches to support your healing. I recognize the courage it takes to seek out support and I applaud you for being here.

Has someone in your life told you that drinking or drugs are a problem for you? They're wrong! Your use is not the problem, it's a solution! Substances help us cope with the slings and arrows of life. Drinking is merely a symptom of something deeper with which you’re struggling. We need to get down to the causes and conditions of your substance use. My name is Adam, I’m in long-term recovery and I would like to give you something that was given to me. If you’re sick and tired of being sick and tired, please call me. Let’s see if we’re a good fit for each other. My approach to therapy is simple but not easy, we are going to do some work. First, are you ready to be completely honest with yourself? If you can say “yes” then you may be ready to get clean and sober. If you’re not quite ready to give up alcohol, we can also look at harm reduction in your drinking, there is a solution and there is hope. Would you like to work with a guy that has been where you've been? Maybe you feel it’s too late? Maybe you feel you’ve already lost people? There is hope, countless people recover from drugs and alcohol every day, why not you? Let’s talk, call me right now.t

I am a relationship therapist who works with couples, families, and individuals to heal traumas and repair attachment wounds. Our goal in therapy will be to improve your relationship with yourself and those you love. I show up for my clients as my authentic self using direct and empathetic communication. If you like someone who will be honest with and challenge you, then we will be a good fit. I am excited to work with people brave enough to seek change and willing to learn a new way to be in relationship with themselves and others. You don’t need to have it all together or have the right words; just be willing to show up. I offer my clients a safe and inclusive space to talk openly about life's challenges, both past and present. I utilize skills I have acquired in attachment, EFT, Gottman, and EMDR, among others, to inform my approach to treatment. I bring an abundance of life experience that allows me to provide clients with an empathetic and accepting therapeutic experience. I have personal experience in overcoming challenges with the help of therapy. I approach my clients free of judgment and full of understanding. Your work with me will offer you a valuable opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of yourself and the relationships that play an integral role in your life. You are not in this alone; let's do the work together.

We use a client-centered approach to build trust and rapport with clients by being authentic, non-judgemental, present, and empathetic. We offer play, art, and sand tray therapy for children and adolescents, and use behavioral therapy to shape behavior. We also offer individual adult, family, and couple therapy, as well as parent support.

Our approach to helping is to be supportive, respectful and value you. We are a trauma-focused therapy practice and because of that our focus is "What happened to you?" not "What is wrong with you?" We understand that life is full of challenges. Sometimes traumas, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship issues, bullying, and exploring gender identity prevent us from having the life we want. It limits how we see ourselves, how we interact with others and how we approach the world. Our goal is to help you have the life you want. Your goals are our goals! We use a variety of modalities when working with clients. Some of those modalities are CBT, TF-CBT, EMDR, Mindfulness therapy, Somatic therapy, DBT and IFS. Every client responds to modalities differently; so what works for you might not work for someone else and that is okay. We want to use what works for you! We work with all ages, but specialize in working with pre-teen, teens and the LGBTQ population.

Are you wanting different but keep repeating the same patterns? Do you feel stuck? Do you notice yourself feeling alone, withdrawn, andor anxious? Are past relationship wounds feeling impossible to overcome? Are your emotions causing overwhelm? Are you craving deeper connection and meaning in your life and relationships? Relationships are the most powerful and impactful contributor to our lives, and this includes the relationship to self. I help individuals, couples, and families build a more fulfilling and intentional life, working through the barriers that have led to disconnection from yourself and within your relationships by creating new ways to connect to self, others, and their goals. I believe each client has inherent wisdom, resiliency, and resources within themselves, and my job is to help clients tap into that. My goal is to go beyond the symptoms to uncover and address the root issues causing dissatisfaction, bridging the gap between where you are and where you would like to be. I use an integrated approach of emotionally-focused therapy (EFT), internal family systems (IFS), narrative therapy, and brainspotting. As I strongly believe that true change happens when the nervous system is also addressed, I integrate somatic work in session where possible to build on the mind-body connection. At the core of my work as a relationship therapist is attachment; I view symptoms you are experiencing as adaptions to survive and manage the systems and relationships you've experienced andor are currently in.

I have provided psychotherapy in the Westminster and Arvada area since 1998 for adults experiencing Stress and Anxiety related concerns such as Panic Attacks, GAD (Generalized Anxiety Disorder), Phobias (like Agoraphobia and Specific Phobias), PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and Fearfulness. I use a Mindfulness Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach. I also work with individuals experiencing a wide variety of other concerns such as Depression, Grief & Loss, Life Transitions, Women's Issues, and Spiritual concerns, including Atheism, Agnosticism and Secular questioning.

This isn’t where you thought you’d be. Whether you’re struggling in your relationships, feeling overwhelmed, or coming to the realization that the effects of trauma are keeping you from living fully - this isn’t how you thought your life would be unfolding. Start living a life you love without sacrificing who you are! When you feel like you have lost your voice and your sense of self in your relationships, I work with you to help you rediscover who you are and what boundaries you want to set in your relationships. Many couples say that as challenges and the pressures of life take their toll, it can feel like they’re always fighting each other, instead of the problems they face. In therapy, we can help you and your partner get on the same page and rebuild the intimacy and romance in your relationship so that you can handle anything that comes your way. Therapy can help you find a sense of unity and shared purpose. Parenting is arguably the toughest job out there - and raising a child who struggles with behavioral challenges can make it more difficult. Every day can feel like you’re pushed to your limits. I am here to support you. I walk alongside you, show you exactly what to do to help your child, and create a more peaceful way to live. I provide child therapy through a process that involves working with the parents and the child to find a less stressful way to live. For Individuals looking to heal from trauma we offer EMDR intensives that help you process your experience over the course of days instead of weeks. I believe that when you feel safe, supported, and heard - you’re going to feel comfortable sharing the experiences, history, and situations that brought you to our door. Connection with your therapist leads to an openness that allows us to get clear on why your relationships follow a pattern or behavior that doesn’t give you what you need. In creating a safe space for you to explore your thoughts without fear of judgment, we can open the door to real change.
