Grief Therapists in Colorado

My work is depth-oriented, relational, and mind-body centered. That means we don’t just focus on managing symptoms — we listen for what your struggles are trying to say. I draw from Jungian and psychodynamic psychotherapy, attachment theory, somatic awareness, and dreamwork. Together, we pay attention to patterns, emotions, relationships, and the symbolic language of the psyche. Therapy becomes a place where insight, emotional experience, and embodied awareness come together. I see therapy as a collaborative process. The relationship itself matters, and change often happens through genuine understanding and meeting — sometimes for the first time. I’m a licensed psychotherapist with over 15 years of experience in private practice. I'm currently in training with JPA in New York for archetypal psychoanalytic psychotherapy and have trained in EMDR, IFS, RLT, CBT, Hakomi, and more. I offer individual and group psychotherapy, and working with adults across a wide range of life concerns.

Hi there! My name is Colleen and I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ individuals and those who are pregnant and postpartum, ages 18 and up, experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions, and more. It is my privilege and goal to guide self-exploration with compassion and curiosity to support those who I work with to build a foundation of self-love and loving relationships in their lives.

Life can feel overwhelming—waves of anxiety, depression, chronic pain, or old wounds rising without warning. Through gentle, somatic, trauma-informed therapy, I help you tune into your body, regulate emotions, and build a sense of safety so stored stress can begin to release. At Deep Water Emotional Health, you’ll find a grounded, compassionate space for clarity, healing, and reconnection—supported by over 15 years of experience working with emotional trauma. Sessions are 55 minutes, offered virtually, in person, and in nature. I grew up in a religious community where love was mixed with fear and control. In my late 20s, unresolved trauma led to panic attacks. My own healing led me to Internal Family Systems (IFS), where I now practice as a Level 2 practitioner. You can hear more of my story on the Holistic Health podcast (Ep. 46). IFS offers a path back to your authentic Self, the calm, compassionate core within you. From there, healing begins. Your first 55-minute session is free.

I take pride in providing high-quality, compassionate, empirically-based care rooted in my extensive doctoral education and extensive ongoing professional development.  Services Offered My experience has equipped me to provide an array of mental health services tailored to meet each individual’s unique needs. These services include individual therapy, couples therapy, psychological assessments—specializing in ADHD—vocational and career assessments, as well as sports psychology and performance enhancement for high-performers, including C-Suite executives, athletes, artists, and medical professionals.   Individual Therapy: I work with adults and adolescents experiencing various challenges, such as anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, phobias, eating disorders, body image issues, internet and social media addictions, relationship and interpersonal difficulties, obsessions, compulsions, perfectionism, burnout, insomnia, and other psychological presentations within the human experience. I also support individuals navigating life transitions, communication challenges, attachment difficulties, relational concerns, and complex family dynamics.

I also enjoy incorporating Positive Psychology, Interpersonal/Relational Therapy, Existential-Humanistic Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to support meaningful change. I approach mental health from a holistic perspective, recognizing the interconnectedness of mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual facets. I am committed to providing a compassionate listening space where you are invited to reflect and explore yourself, understanding your deepest challenges and strengths. Through patient listening, reflecting, shared inquiry, and various evidence based interventions, I strive to help you become more aware of your patterns and thoughts, fostering greater self-understanding and clarity. My goal is to support you in making meaningful and skillful choices that align with your true self.  My Therapeutic Style My approach to mental health, in general, is characterized by an accepting and caring environment that is collaborative in nature. I am authentic, down-to-earth, intentional, and spontaneous in session, which lends itself to a truly collaborative and growth-promoting experience. Therapy with me is a collaborative, action-oriented process providing you the opportunity to foster new perspectives, discover your inherent worth, tap into your inner resources, and develop your capacity for resilience and new skills. I enjoy working from a holistic yet evidence-based approach.  I show up authentically for each patient, and I value transparency and provide my full presence. Patients who work with me can expect to explore feelings, beliefs, and behaviors, understand memories, process destructive relationships, and identify dysfunction, which will lead to a better understanding of themselves and others. During therapy, there is an ongoing effort to develop effective coping skills, decrease emotional distress, improve functioning, and resolve symptoms and problems. Each therapy session is a balance of meeting your present needs and long-term goals. Collaboratively, we will deepen your understanding of yourself your reactions to various emotions and, increase your psychological flexibility and create new perspectives.  My Wishes for You I wish you a life full of love, happiness, fulfillment and health. I am committed to helping you build and find it! It is my greatest honor to accompany my patients on their journey toward deeper self-awareness, growth, the emergence from suffering while becoming a meaningful part of my patient’s lives. Warmly, Dr. Tania

Hello! My name is Nikki Schuster, and I am a Licensed Social Worker providing Telehealth therapy services to private pay clients located in Colorado. I have a Master's of Social Work degree from MSU Denver, and I am passionate about meeting my clients where they are at, highlighting their strengths, and collaborating to achieve any goals they may have. I utilized a combination of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, based on each individual client's goals and needs. I specialize in family conflict, anxiety, and grief, and can also assist with depression, addiction, trauma, and chronic illness. I provide both individual ($110 per session) and couples ($125) therapy, and having a sliding scale available for those who need it. I am a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and a woman with a disability, and I pride myself on being a safe space for other marginalized individuals. Outside of work, I love to travel and create art.

I grew up surrounded by nature and beauty in Northern California. I completed my undergraduate degree in Sociology at Biola University in La Mirada, CA with a minor in Biblical Studies. In 2012, I began my graduate studies at New York University, earning a Master’s in Social Work specializing in geriatric and end of life care. I have been a Licensed Clinician for four years and feel honored to have a practice where I can use EMDR techniques to help others heal.

Hello and bienvenue! I work with a diverse clientele and specialize in providing social justice oriented psychotherapy to people of color, as well as members of LGBTQIA+ communities. I provide culturally responsive therapy, which focuses on the strengths that you already have. I tend to use an Interpersonal Process theoretical approach (IPT) as well as a cognitive-behavioral theoretical approach (CBT) while also paying attention to your environment and access to social support. I work with you to build a safe space where you can share your experiences without the fear of being judged, and where you can focus on becoming clear about what you want, and how you want to go about making that happen. I believe that it is important to build a strong therapeutic relationship, as well as paying close attention to what is happening for you in-the-moment. I find it helpful to work to understand the different values and beliefs that we bring into the room, and how these worldviews might affect our interactions with each other. Understanding how your thoughts are related to your behaviors can empower and help you to actively account for your reality. You can use this insight to make the changes that will be necessary to live life more healthily.
