Therapists for college students near Boulder, CO

From the second we hit adolescence, we are in a near state of constant transition. That doesn't stop when we hit what society considers to be "adulthood." When we hit college, the world expects us to magically become fully functioning adults. But we are dealing with one of the biggest transitions yet, and mostly on our own. We might be experiencing things such as transitioning from living at home, to living on our own. Relying on family for financial support to having to support ourselves. Having a secure and safe social circle to having to start again finding our "people." Balancing classes, work, social obligations, and self-care. Deciding if we want to carry forward the identity we held onto in adolescence into adulthood, or reinvent ourselves. Living in the moment and enjoying our experience while constantly planning our futures and making plans for when we REALLY hit adulthood. And doing all of this completely untethered from the safety and security we once knew. College is a lot. Period. It's normal to struggle through some of this, and to need some extra support in managing it all. I speak from experience. I faced a lot of challenges in college that tested my mental health. A close family member passed away two months into my freshman year, and navigating my grief amidst my difficult college classes challenged my focus and caused my grades to slip. I had what I lovingly call a "mental breakdown" returning from spring break my sophmore year of college, when I literally couldn't stop crying for a week straight for no apparent reason. Did I reach out for professional support, you may wonder? You bet I did! I met with a counselor at my college who helped me understand that I was feeling very isolated and helped me figure out some steps I could take to feel less alone. In the end, I found my "people," who are still my best friends nearly 20 years later, and had an amazing college experience. I am so glad I reached out for support, and persevered through that challenge. I specialize in supporting anxiety, depression, difficult transitions, navigating family and social conflict, and simply finding your place in this world. Sometimes we know we need therapy, but we're not really sure what for, and I am happy to lend an ear to what you are experiencing, and help you find your way, regardless of any labels. It takes strength to reach out for help, especially during a period of life you are expected to be grown up and independent. But there is no point in life during which you should ever feel ashamed to seek help. College can be an amazing and formative time, and managing your emotional and mental health can help you access all of the beautiful experiences available to you. Please don't hesitate to reach out for any reason at all. I'm looking forward to working with you!

Many folks who sit with me share the weight of being a human in a world that does not seem to honor, value, or support them. It can feel exhausting to continue carrying our wounded selves through a sea of ongoing oppression and late stage capitalism. All the while, we continue to feel the pain of our childhood wounding and challenges with relationship and connection. It can feel overwhelming and hopeless. How do we find our way in all of this? Sometimes when I sit with others, I imagine we are sitting at a table where you can lay out all the many wounds, fears, disappointments, losses, and challenges of being a human. Together, we can look at each challenge and honor it. We honor what it has to say, what teaching it has, what pain it carries. Somehow, in the process of holding this space, we often find the tightness of the pain loosens. In this process, we develop a greater capacity for holding and processing emotion, paving the way for a richer life. As we move forward, we often discover a greater capacity for joy, connection, fulfillment, and love! After all, this is another hallmark of being human, finding joy and love alongside the pain and challenge. If you're interested in sitting at the table with me, please reach out for a free consultation. I look forward to hearing from you!

I aim to support you in reconnecting with your authenticity. We will work at your pace to strengthen your mind-body connection so you can identify your needs and choices. Sessions will often include emotional regulation tools, time to process what is arising for you, and interventions to support new habits and thought patterns. This is a space for you.

I’m Dr. Amy Syper, a licensed psychologist and founder of Strength in Becoming. As a dancer I have seen and experienced the damaging effects of body image distress and eating concerns along with the healing powers of dance. I specialize in eating disorder treatment and have worked with adolescents and adults with eating disorders at all levels of care- from inpatient hospitalization to outpatient therapy. I am passionate about helping clients build a safe and supportive relationship with their body. In addition to “talk therapy” I offer dance/movement therapy sessions to help clients strengthen their mind-body connection, build new insights into emotional experiences, and improve self-esteem. I also have experience working in college counseling centers, supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, relationship stress, identity exploration, ADHD, and executive functioning.

As a somatic therapist, I help teens and adults connect to themselves through body-centered techniques that bring awareness of inner sensations and release pent-up trauma, stress, and emotions. My work centers on some of life's most profound challenges: identity, grief, life transitions, crisis, and trauma. I believe that one of the greatest threats to humanity is disconnection – from our bodies, our intuition, one another, and the world around us – and the body is where true healing beings. That’s why my work is rooted in guiding others through the process of reconnection, supporting the holistic well-being of the mind, body and spirit. Whether you're navigating a difficult season or searching for greater clarity and resilience, I'm here to guide you. In our work together, you can expect a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you are met exactly as you are. I draw on somatic and contemplative therapy techniques to help you move beyond intellectualizing your emotions and into a more embodied, authentic experience of them. My approach is patient-centered, meaning I tailor every aspect of our work to your unique experiences, needs, and goals. I bring genuine warmth and honesty to each session, grounded in a deep belief in self-compassion. It is truly a privilege to witness patients step into their potential, and I look forward to supporting you on that journey. My path to becoming a therapist is rooted in lived experience. Following a Bipolar I diagnosis, I navigated my own journey through crisis and, in doing so, discovered firsthand how transformative somatic therapy can be. That experience didn't just shape my healing; it shaped my calling. Having walked through darkness and found my way toward the light through therapy, I understand on a deeply personal level what it means to feel lost and what it takes to begin feeling whole again. That understanding is at the heart of everything I do. It drives my commitment to offering you care that is not only clinically informed, but also genuinely compassionate and free of judgment. Outside of the therapy room, I find joy and restoration in many of the same practices I bring to my work. I love dancing, painting, and yoga, as well as more active pursuits like skiing, hiking, swimming, and exercise. Cooking and spending time in nature also keep me grounded and inspired. These passions fuel my belief in the healing power of movement, creativity, and connection.

Finding clarity, confidence, and direction is possible, and you don't have to figure it out alone. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I help adults and older teens navigate anxiety, stress, life transitions, and self-esteem challenges. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, caught in cycles of overthinking, or unsure of your next steps, this is a space where you can feel genuinely heard, supported, and understood while seeking greater clarity, confidence, and direction. My commitment is to be a steady partner in your care, helping you build insight and move toward a values-driven life that feels more aligned and manageable. My approach is person-centered, strengths-based, and collaborative by design. Drawing on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, we work together to build practical strategies while developing a deeper, more compassionate understanding of yourself. Sessions are nonjudgmental and shaped around your unique needs, experiences, and goals, in a supportive and flexible environment. Whether the focus is on strengthening emotional awareness, developing coping skills, or moving through a difficult season of life, the direction of our work is always guided by what matters most to you. The goal is to support you in ways that feel meaningful and genuine, even when difficult thoughts and emotions arise. My path to becoming a therapist is rooted in personal experience. At a younger age, navigating anxiety led me to therapy, where I discovered how powerful it can be to feel truly understood while also gaining tools that make a real difference. That experience shaped everything about how I provide care that is both compassionate and actionable. This foundation also drives my commitment to bringing a real, relatable presence to every session while helping patients build skills that lead to meaningful, lasting change. Outside of the therapy room, creativity and movement keep me grounded. Reading, drawing, and working on creative projects are some of my favorite ways to recharge. Movies, time spent with dogs, and quiet walks also bring me a lot of joy.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in helping adults navigate the challenges that contribute to anxiety, depression, attention and concentration difficulties, codependency, grief, trauma, generational trauma, and PTSD. Compassion, rapport, and curiosity are at the heart of how I work with each person. Every session is designed to be a place of safety where you can explore your emotions honestly and begin creating the kind of meaningful change that lasts. Whether you're carrying the weight of past experiences or managing the demands of everyday life, I'm here to help you find your way through it. Our work together takes place in a compassionate, supportive therapeutic environment where you are seen, heard, and respected. Drawing on person-centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), and trauma-informed approaches, we'll explore the impact of past experiences and build the healthy coping skills and resilience you need to thrive. Self-compassion, mindfulness, and breathwork are integral to my practice, because how you relate to yourself matters just as much as the strategies we develop together. The goal is always the same: to help you become the best version of yourself while navigating whatever life brings your way. My path to becoming a therapist began in social work, serving underserved individuals and communities. That experience revealed just how urgent the need for accessible, quality mental health care for all individuals truly is. Witnessing the power of genuine connection and the difference it makes in people's lives deepened my commitment to providing evidence-based therapeutic interventions that not only manage symptoms but also overcome challenges faced. Today, I bring that same compassion and empathy to every session, while also gently challenging you to explore your internal dialogue, your values, and your most authentic self. Family, friends, and time spent outdoors are central to my sense of well-being, as I believe that joy and play are essential. I also love learning new things, and lately that's meant exploring the world of arts and crafts.

Life has a way of piling up. When it does, the weight of anxiety, stress, or an unexpected change can leave you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself. As a mental health therapist specializing in anxiety, stress, depression, self-esteem, relationship challenges, life transitions, and emotional regulation, I work with young adults and adults who are ready to make sense of what they're carrying and find their way back to a life that feels meaningful. Whatever brought you here, whether it's daily anxiety, a relationship that's wearing on you, or a constant sense of being off-balance, you deserve a space where you can finally slow down, sort through it, and build real inner strength. Together, we'll move at a pace that feels completely right for you, leaving room for clarity, self-discovery, and growth. It would be a true privilege to walk alongside you on that path. My approach is driven by a genuine belief that every person is capable of meaningful, lasting change, and that the right space makes all the difference. Creating an environment where you feel truly heard, understood, and free to be honest is something I care deeply about, and it shapes everything about how sessions are structured. You can expect warmth, curiosity, and zero judgment in our time together, in a warm and validating environment entirely centered on you. Every session is tailored to your unique story, your needs, and your goals. Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help you build practical coping strategies and develop emotional flexibility — tools that don't just work in session, but travel with you into everyday life. My path to becoming a therapist grew from a deep curiosity about human behavior and how mental health shapes the texture of daily life. Before this work, I spent years as a university professor, and my own migration journey gave me a firsthand understanding of what it really takes to adapt, rebuild, and grow through difficult transitions. These experiences inform how I show up in the room with you. They taught me how to offer a grounded, trustworthy, and steady presence that allows you the space to look inward and rediscover your own strengths. When I'm not working, I'm usually somewhere outdoors: hiking with my dog, riding my bike, or lacing up my roller skates with friends. Crafting rounds out the mix, and whatever the project, there's always something new in progress.

You deserve a space where your story is honored, your pain is witnessed, and your healing feels possible. As a trauma-informed therapist, I work with individuals and couples who are ready to reconnect with themselves, process what’s been holding them back, and move forward with clarity and self-trust. Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all — and it shouldn't be. I meet you exactly where you are, with compassion and curiosity, and we collaborate to create a path forward that feels authentic to you. I hold the belief that you are the expert of your life; my role is to help you access the wisdom and resilience you already carry within. In our work together, we’ll gently explore how past experiences show up in your present — in your thoughts, your relationships, and in your body. I integrate EMDR, somatic approaches, parts work, mindfulness, and nervous system education to help you not just understand yourself, but feel more whole and empowered in daily life. Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected — and leave feeling more confident, self-aware, and capable of navigating life with intention. I offer gender-affirming care and a welcoming, inclusive space for LGBTQIA+ clients, BIPOC, and anyone seeking healing without judgment. You don’t have to figure it all out alone. Together, we’ll build the foundation for the change you’re ready for.

I offer a collaborative, stable and compassionate therapy space to help you find your way - whether it be for transforming anxiety and depression, building skills for more inner stability, finding purpose, healing traumas, restoring connection in relationships, reducing the power of difficult or addictive behaviors, spiritual or existential topics, or achieving specific goals. I like to involve both mind and body whenever we can, especially when it feels like talking isn’t enough. I tend to use Attachment Theory, ACT, Gestalt, compassion-focused and somatic therapy in sessions, and may suggest the Brainspotting technique to work on trauma and other issues. I also offer meditation, breathing & movement exercises to ground or deepen your experience. My wish is to help you contact your own capacities for healing, self-awareness, kindness, and confidence. Please reach out if you'd like to see if we are a good fit!

The clients who see me, often hate to admit that they have reached a place where you need to ask for help. Normally, they can handle just about anything, but the fights, the disconnection and the wondering how they got here is taking up nearly all of their mental space.

Hi there! My name is Lizzy, and I’m so glad you’re here. As a Highly Sensitive Person, I’m passionate about working with individuals who feel things deeply—those who are attuned to their environments, sensitive to others’ emotions, and sometimes struggle to regulate their own big feelings. I also support people who experience anxiety, including situational anxiety. Maybe you don’t feel anxious all the time, but you notice it spiking in certain situations—like when meeting new people, navigating your romantic life, or worrying about failing or disappointing others. I have extensive experience working with individuals whose brains are still developing their emotional regulation skills, and I truly love what I do. This work not only helps me continue to grow as a professional, but also supports others in building resilience, self-awareness, and authenticity.
