LGBTQIA+ Affirming Therapy

Hello. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC) with my MA degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Denver. I primarily work through a person-centered approach, as I believe the client/counselor relationship is one of the most foundational aspects of the therapeutic process.

I also have experience incorporating CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness based interventions, Internal Family Systems, and attachment theory.

I am passionate about working with LGBTQIA+ individuals and others with marginalized identities. I enjoy working with individuals throughout life’s many transitions, whether discovering new identities, job shifts, family or relationship structure changes, retirement and beyond. I am also committed to helping clients work through trauma and its triggers to decrease the impact on their daily lives.

Have you suffered trauma(s) throughout your life? Do you feel like you are living in a state of constant stress? Did you have a strained family dynamic? I work with complex trauma, LGBTQIA+, medical complexity/disability, and individuals dealing with challenging family dynamics to heal from chronic freeze or fawn states so that they can experience the full spectrum of their emotions and discover their purpose and meaning after Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and other traumas.

I also work with neurodiversity, and adults who are late diagnosed to help them best understand the brain they have, and how they can work with it as it currently exists.

Hi, I’m Lily. I graduated with my MA in counseling psychology from the University of Denver, and am an LPCC in Colorado. My passion lies in accessible therapy and helping clients embrace the brain and body they have. As a relational psychodynamic therapist, I believe that the relationship between myself and my client is the most important component of therapeutic success.

With a foundation of solid rapport, I provide the space for trauma processing, establishing values, creating and implementing coping strategies, and engaging with the full range of your emotions to find purpose and meaning in the life you have.

I believe in treating the problem and the symptoms. I am dedicated to helping you heal and grow into your authentic and healthy self, regardless of what you have experienced in the past. You deserve to live the life you want and have the life you need.

Hi, I’m Fenton! I’m a trauma and neurodiversity-affirming therapist for adults and kids navigating complex trauma, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, depression, and relational stress. I’m especially passionate about working with autistic and ADHD folks and the LGBTQIA+ community.

With my background in mental health crisis work, I am comfortable sitting with you in the hard moments. I won’t ask you to mask or minimize what you’re experiencing. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in validation, honesty, and humor. My goal is to help you build a meaningful life and be present with you in moments that feel like no one else could.

My work draws primarily from DBT, IFS, somatic work, and existential therapy. We might explore your thoughts and emotions, notice what’s happening in your body, or understand the different parts of you that are trying to protect you. Before becoming a therapist, I worked as an electrical engineer. That background still shapes how I work: I’m curious about why your patterns developed and how your relational, cultural, and developmental history has shaped you.

I offer in-person therapy in Arvada and Denver, as well as telehealth across Colorado. Reach out for a 20-minute consultation to see whether we might be a good fit.
