Therapy for Therapists
in Denver

Seen, not supervised

Plenty of therapists already have real professional support — consultation groups, trainings, case conferences, a full calendar of ways to talk shop with other clinicians. None of that is wrong. It's just not personal therapy, and finding the actual thing can be its own project. Underneath that search is usually something older: a habit of clocking what everyone around us needs before we ever clock our own, built early, as parentified kids, and never really switched off.

One thing I notice a lot with therapist clients specifically: supervision and consultation quietly start standing in for personal therapy, because they're the closest thing to "being seen professionally" that's already built into the job. But they're not the same thing, and treating them as interchangeable means your needs go unmet.

To change, you need a therapist who can keep you on your toes and push you. Growth lives somewhere outside your comfort zone, between feeling safe and feeling challenged. If this sounds like what you're looking for, check out my full website.

Not more supervision

What I do is called Functional Psychotherapy — a model I'm developing through ongoing theoretical work and research. It runs bottom-up and is experiential, aiming for transformation rather than symptom management. I show up warm, and I'll be blunt when it's what's needed.

I've also written more directly about why supervision, consultation, and personal therapy are three different tools for the same underlying need — not doing this work alone, and not letting any one of them quietly cover for the other two.

Curious what this actually looks like on paper? I've published a case study in combat trauma, plus a piece walking through the practical approach to psychotherapy that I lean on.
