Individual therapy that goes somewhere
Insight is nice. What most people want is to feel different on an ordinary Tuesday, long after the session ends. We start by understanding what’s going on, then choose an approach that fits you.
What one-on-one therapy is for
One person, one therapist, fifty minutes, and real room to work out what has been weighing on you.
People start therapy for all kinds of reasons. Some arrive in the middle of a crisis. Others come in because something quiet and persistent has been pulling at them for years. Most are somewhere in between, and you don’t need a diagnosis or a single clear problem to book a first session.
Individual therapy at Full Bloom is talk therapy with a plan behind it. Your therapist gets to know your history, your relationships and what you’d like to be different, then draws on approaches like EMDR, somatic work, Internal Family Systems, narrative therapy or CBT, depending on what fits. We think the relationship with your therapist matters as much as any method, so we take fit seriously from the first call.
We see clients in person in Denver and Boulder, and online anywhere in Colorado, seven days a week.

Some of what people bring in
These are the reasons we hear most often. Plenty of people arrive with two or three of them tangled together, and that’s fine.
- Anxiety and chronic worry that keeps running in the background even when everything looks fine on paper
- Depression and low mood, whether it arrived suddenly or built slowly over a few years
- Trauma that still shapes how you think, feel and react, long after you thought you’d moved on
- Relationship patterns with partners, family or coworkers that you keep finding yourself back inside
- Life transitions like a move, a breakup, a loss or a new job, the moments that ask who you are now
- Family of origin and attachment wounds, and the ways childhood still shows up in your adult life and your parenting
- Addiction recovery, for people who want support that goes further than staying sober
- Identity and self-worth, working out what you think and want apart from what you were told to be
Who to see, by what you’re dealing with
The free consultation exists so you never have to pick on your own. If you like to read first, here is how our therapists’ training lines up with what people most often come in for. Fees, locations and openings are on each bio.
Anxiety, overthinking and people pleasing
Replaying conversations, saying yes before you’ve checked whether you want to, and the quiet resentment that follows.
Trauma that talking hasn’t reached
Kelli works somatically and with parts for experiences that still live in the body. Becca, Kelsey and Mark are EMDR trained.
Grief and loss
Jillian was a hospice grief counselor before she became a therapist. Kirsten also works with grief and low mood, online only.
Food, body image and chronic dieting
Natalie, Jillian and Becca are all Certified Intuitive Eating Counselors and work from a weight-neutral place.
Parents, boundaries and estrangement
Kelsey has a particular interest in adults sorting out complicated relationships with their parents, including distance and no contact.
Addiction and recovery
Kelli is a Licensed Addiction Counselor and supports people at every stage of recovery, including recovery alongside trauma.
Leaving a faith, or halfway out
Mark has been through this transition himself and works with religious shame, fear and the loss of community.
New to therapy, or living with ADHD
Jillian is easy to talk to if you don’t know where to begin, and she works with adults who have ADHD.
Culture, family and belonging
Kirsten offers culturally responsive care for people weighing family and cultural expectations. She works online anywhere in Colorado.
How it usually starts
A free 15-minute call
You tell us a little about what’s going on. We answer questions about fees, scheduling and approach, and suggest a therapist who fits.
A first session that is mostly listening
Your therapist asks what brought you in, about your history, and what you hope will change. You don’t need the right words or a tidy goal.
A shared plan
Within the first few sessions you’ll both have a sense of what you’re working on and which approaches make sense for it.
Regular check-ins
We ask what’s helping and what isn’t, and adjust as we go. You decide when you’ve gotten what you came for.
“Our lives are narratives that include stories of triumphs, losses, joys, and wounds. Experience has taught me that relationships can be powerful and healing, including the one we build in therapy.”

The methods behind the conversation
Most sessions feel like a focused conversation. Underneath, your therapist is often drawing on one or more of these.
EMDR
Helps the brain reprocess memories that still feel present, so they lose their charge.
About EMDR →Internal Family Systems
Gets to know the protective parts of you, like the inner critic or the people pleaser, and what they guard.
About IFS →Somatic work
Notices where stress and old experiences show up in the body and helps the nervous system settle.
Read more →The Enneagram
A map of your automatic reactions that makes long-running patterns easier to see and interrupt.
About the Enneagram →Questions about individual therapy
No. Many of our clients come in because something feels off, not because they have a formal diagnosis or a crisis. Therapy is for anyone who wants to understand themselves better, change a pattern, or work through something that has been weighing on them.
Start with a free 15-minute consultation. We’ll ask what you’re looking for and match you with a therapist whose background, style and availability fit. You don’t have to figure this out alone. That’s part of our job.
It depends on what you’re working on. Some clients reach their goals in 12 to 16 sessions. Others choose to continue longer for ongoing support or deeper work. We check in on progress regularly and never keep you in therapy longer than you find it valuable.
Sessions are 50 minutes. Kelli, Kelsey, Kirsten, Jillian and Natalie charge $175, and Mark and Becca charge $200. We are out of network and don’t bill insurance directly, but we provide a superbill after each session that you can submit for reimbursement through your out-of-network benefits.
Yes. Every one of our therapists offers telehealth on a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform, and we see clients anywhere in Colorado. Mark and Kirsten work online only. Becca, Natalie, Jillian and Kelli also see clients in person in Denver, and Kelsey sees clients in Denver and Boulder.
For many common concerns, including anxiety and depression, studies of video therapy have generally found outcomes similar to in-person care. Fit with your therapist matters more than the format. Some people like the privacy of their own home; others want a room to go to. You can also switch later.
You don’t have to figure this out alone
One conversation is often enough to see a way forward. In person in Denver and Boulder, or online anywhere in Colorado.
