I aim to create a space where you can feel heard. I view therapy as a truly collaborative experience grounded in building a trusting therapeutic relationship. You can expect to be able to show up as you are and receive compassion and empathy.

Hi! My name is Ruth Pollak, LCSW, Licensed Social Worker in Colorado. I have been in private practice for decades. I work with adults experiencing Life's transitions, Grief, Anxiety and Depression. My style is interactive and straight forward. I try to provide my clients with a comfortable environment. I am warm and caring and it shows in my therapy.

Are you and your partner feeling disconnected, stuck in recurring conflicts, or struggling to communicate? Do past wounds or trauma impact the way you show up in your relationship? As a holistic therapist, I specialize in helping couples and individuals break free from negative patterns, heal attachment wounds, and build deeper emotional connections. Together, we’ll explore how past wounds and protective coping mechanisms have shaped your life, helping you move toward healing, deeper self-awareness, and more fulfilling relationships. If you are ready for meaningful change, I will be there to support you every step of the way! Through an attachment-based approach, we’ll address the roots of low self-worth and negative beliefs, working to nurture your inner child and develop a stronger sense of self. For couples, I use this same framework to foster empathy, understanding, and meaningful connection. I also integrate EMDR into the therapeutic process when beneficial. I offer a nonjudgmental space where you can show up as you are. Therapy is a collaborative journey, and I bring warmth, humor, and creativity into our work together. My goal is to help you feel seen, heard, and empowered as you navigate this process. Let’s start this journey together - reach out today!

Our Denver therapists are experts in helping clients build self-awareness in order to address the root of their problems through EMDR. Good therapy often involves a multifaceted approach to get to the core root of problems. More than "talk-therapy" our approach involves building safety, learning tools for self-regulation, healing old wounds (trauma), and integrating these treatment gains for a strengthened sense of core identity.

You put on a good act, but on the inside, you are suffering in silence. Even if you’ve been struggling with anxiety and chronic stress for a long time, so long you forgot what normal feels like, this doesn’t mean it has to be this way forever. Whether it’s exploring past traumas or examining way to change your thoughts and actions, we will work together to form goals and formulate a plan to move forward. I am here to help you, in a safe judgment- free space, to listen, help you learn about yourself, and challenge the old stories that don't fit who you are becoming. Today is a great day to start your next chapter.

I believe in meeting every client where they are and going the extra mile to build strong and trusting relationships. I am dedicated to individualized, client-driven therapy, recognizing that every person is different and moves through the world uniquely. I strive to work collaboratively with each client to address their specific wants and needs, tailoring each approach to fit them best. I graduated with my MSW and a certificate in trauma from Simmons University. My main areas of focus include trauma, anxiety, depression, and life changes. I have a background working with children and families with intense traumatic experiences. Currently, I am working with clients ages 4-32. I take pride in working alongside children and young adults to give them the skills they need to learn and grow. I utilize a variety of interventions, including TF-CBT, attachment theory, mindfulness, somatic process, active listening, motivational interviewing, grounding, and psycho-education. Living in this world can be challenging, and my goal is to help clients find their own ways to make it easier. I work alongside them, letting them guide the direction of therapy. I am dedicated to creating a strong therapeutic relationship and invite clients to schedule a consultation to see if I am a good fit or to inquire further about my services.

Practicing in the mental health field for over 50 years, I thoroughly enjoy working with just about anyone that comes through my door. I am always amazed and honored by the wide variety of individuals that enter my office. My strengths are working with adolescents, adults , and couples with all kinds of issues. A particular area that I have committed myself to over the past 30 years is supporting couples in which one or both mates are living in the aftermath of childhood abusetrauma of all kinds. In particular the "Partners" of survivors of abuse need a specific kind of support to be response-able through the healing process and beyond. Each person that chooses to work with me should know that my overall focus is on moving them forward into a positive, competent, engaged, energized and loving experience in their lives. It is most often necessary to understand and address the pain and challenges people bring into my office, and to support healing. However, as soon as possible we begin looking forward towards growth and increased anticipation of success in all aspects of your life. This "positive" frame of reference is solidly grounded in many wonderful discoveries in the brain science that has emerged within my life time.

Hi! I'm Hilary Maxwell and I love walking along side people as they journey through life's up and down, twists and turns. I am always so grateful when people such as yourself want to have someone to talk to and my aim is to create a space that is safe for you to share whatever you need to in order to get clarity on your next steps when working through a situation and the emotions it may evoke. (CO #0011776) My hope is to create a space that is welcoming and inviting for you to share what you need to. I tend to listen to get a better understanding of the situation and when appropriate offer my thoughts and perspective. At times, this comes across as curious while being direct.
