We are a group practice of marriage and family therapists working with clients aged 6 and up.
I'm Mary. I have been working in the field of mental health for 13 years. I worked 10 of the 13 years primarily in the residential treatment sector with teenagers and have loads of experience working with teens and young adults. I also have worked with children ages 3 and up, along with adults. Although I have experience with all diagnosis, my specialties include post traumatic stress disorder and grief. I also have worked extensively with clients who are neurotypical including ADHD and autism. Let's connect and see if we would be a good fit to work together.
Starting college is a major life transition that can be exciting, but also challenging and overwhelming. Adjusting to new routines, increased academic demands, and changing social circles is difficult for many students. Nearly 76% of college students report experiencing moderate to severe stress or distress, with anxiety, loneliness, and depression being especially common during this stage of life. If you’re feeling stuck, anxious, or isolated, therapy offers a supportive space to process tough emotions and big changes. Together, we can develop coping strategies that build resilience and self-compassion, helping you navigate these challenges and rediscover your inner strengths. Change is hard, but you don’t have to figure it out alone!
Hello! My name is Brandon and I have been in social services/mental health for about 9 years now. I have had a lot of success with young adult clients and adult clients looking to empower themselves but are maybe held back by ADHD, anxiety, depression, low self-worth, relational issues, people pleasing, addiction, religious trauma - and much more! If I were to sum up my job to a few words, it is to empower you to live the life that you want! The relationship that we build together is super important to me as well, and I am good at building rapport with clients instead of being a "therapy robot". So, how can I help? I have built a reputation of being a straightforward and honest therapist, meaning I will challenge you, point out certain contradictions in thought patterns, push you to be more aware and mindful of problematic behaviors, validate your emotional experience, and explore your past to find reasons of certain behaviors you now struggle with. I'm a big music nerd who loves concerts and I play a couple of instruments. I really enjoy nerdy things like fantasy/sci-fi movies, shows, books, video games etc. I am also quite active and like to ski, mountain bike, enjoy the outdoors, and I like most sports overall. I'd love to invite you to call or email me if you think we'd be a good fit!
My therapeutic approach is insight-oriented, relational, and collaborative. I work with adults, couples, and adolescents to make meaningful changes in their lives. Together, we will take the time to get to the heart of your story and uncover deep-rooted emotional patterns. I specialize in anxiety, depression, identity issues, relationship issues, and self-esteem. I use psychodynamic theory to explore how our early experiences impact our current functioning, and I see the therapeutic relationship as a corrective experience to heal our early attachment wounds. In our work together, I will gently challenge you to say the unsayable, learn to trust yourself, get out of your own way, and discover new ways to relate to yourself and others. I am a Licensed Social Worker in private practice in Denver, Colorado. I earned my Masters in Social Work with a concentration in Family Systems as well as a post-graduate certificate in trauma therapy from the University of Denver Graduate School of Social Work. I also completed a post-graduate program in Marriage and Family therapy at Denver Family Institute.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC) and a graduate of CU Denver’s Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling program. I am passionate about working with newcomers as well as anyone experiencing life transitions, trauma and post-traumatic stress, anxiety, depression, and religious trauma. I am a member of the Green Cross Academy of Traumatology and a certified Compassion Fatigue Educator, Compassion Fatigue Practitioner, and Field Traumatologist. In previous lives, I have worked with college students in South Asia, in adult ESL and refugee resettlement, and in a working windmill in my hometown of Holland, Michigan.
Life is tough. I see you wanting to get more quality out of your life. You might be the gladiator of a high achiever dragging around anxiety, autism, ADHD or a difficult past. Or maybe life got harder than that lately - like putting your feet on the floor is too hard today. Listen, I've been there myself. You're safe here. I got you. Let's get curious about you. You are the expert of your life; I'm right here with you handing you tools. Yes, I have the ground-breaking therapies. You’re the expert on your life. I’m here to walk alongside you and offer tools that fit. I often use CBT and DBT for practical work. I'm currently in training for EMDR. Next Steps: Just say hey. I'll respond less than a couple hours during my office hours. Or call the number and leave me a message. If I'm not in session or out of office, I'll answer your call myself. No couch. No traffic. Therapy is a chat by videocall - bring your own cat and coffee.

The word 'Haelen' is an Old English word, meaning 'healing' or 'wholeness' and is at the core of what Haelen Mental Health aims to achieve; to promote connection, to alleviate suffering and move towards healing and wholeness. We understand it takes courage to ask for help. We are committed to listening to your concerns and collaboratively creating a treatment plan that will address your unique needs. As Nationally Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners, we believe education is key to enhance your resilience and create empowerment. We utilize medications when necessary and incorporate therapy into our medication management sessions. We emphasize the importance of treating the whole person. We will take time to get to know you and consider options to help you move towards your goal.
Can You Relate? As a teen, you feel lost, broken, misunderstood, unseen and unheard. You don’t know why it has to be so hard. You look around and desire the relationships, confidence and life that other people seem to have so easily. You’re worried about what other people think and can’t seem to get out in your head. As a young adult, you search for independence, but feel overwhelmed with all the “adulting”. There are so many transitions to manage and questions you can’t answer just yet. You want to address the things that do not feel quite right, so you can create the best version of yourself and thrive. Im a firm believer that your struggles do not define you. You come with a unique set of beliefs and experiences that shape the way you show up with yourself and the world. I welcome all my clients to show up to our space exactly as they are, and I promise to do the same. As I often find myself pushing back on traditional ways of thinking about approaches to mental health and wellness, I embrace the unconventional and seek to find out-of-the-box and cutting edge solutions that align with your values, strengths and goals. I don’t treat problems — I partner with you. Together, we will build a connected and balanced life free of the limitations you currently feel and experience. I’m excited to get to know you! I’m even more excited for you to get to know yourself in new, life-changing ways. Throughout our time together, we will look at all the not-so-fun parts of you and the not-yet-understood parts. Most importantly, you’ll discover the very best parts of you that were always there, but perhaps got a bit lost as life got more complicated.
Originally from Chicago, I moved to Colorado to pursue my Master’s at the University of Denver, which confirmed my passion for social work. Before opening my private practice, I worked extensively with survivors of intimate partner abuse, individuals in recovery and couples in crisis. This experience provided me with deep expertise in attachment therapy and reinforced the vital importance of trauma-informed care. My background has shaped a clinical approach rooted in curiosity and a drive to understand the motivations behind actions. This perspective allows me to serve my clients through relational lens, focusing on meaningful connection and growth. If you choose to work with me, you will find a collaborative environment defined by non-judgment and openness. Regardless of your goals, your identities, or where you are in your journey, it would be my honor to support you and your loved ones. I look forward to being your advocate as we work together to reach your goals.
I strongly believe in the human capacity for healing and transformation and believe that people are strong and resilient. You may be here because you feel ready for change in your life and are looking for connection and want to move past stuck places. I am here to walk alongside you, and desire for you to walk away from therapy feeling like a more whole and healthy version of yourself. I am committed to creating a safe space for each client, whether you are feeling relationally drained, hopeless, in need of connection, or ready to process your story. Through the therapeutic process, I work with adults, couples, and adolescents to navigate relational issues, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and many other topics. I operate through the framework of Internal Family Systems (IFS), Narrative Therapy, and EFT. I want to help you be curious about your internal world and the experiences that have impacted you. Life can be extremely painful, but you do not have to navigate it alone! Please contact me for a free consultation and begin your journey towards healing!
Prior to moving to Colorado with my family in 2021, I worked at Florida Gulf Coast University as a Staff Psychologist and Clinical Director for 12 years. I would be honored at the opportunity to help you (or your student) if the services offered on campus are not sufficient or effective. Please visit my website to schedule a free 15 minute consultation call to learn more and see if I might be a good fit for you.

Finding ourselves stuck in problems that we can't seem to figure out isn't uncommon and asking for help isn't easy, but it is a brave first step. My hope is that once I have the opportunity to get to know you and your unique experiences, I can help you to develop the skills to manage life's challenges in a way that you can be proud of. I have worked with children, families and adults and tailor my practice to the individuals I serve. I strive to create a space that is safe, non-judgemental and considers the complexity of your life. My past work has been with individuals of all ages who have experienced complex trauma and the resulting depression, anxiety, anger, fear, shame and grief. I strive to create a safe and anti-oppressive practice that respects, validates and affirms individual racial, ethnic, religious, spiritual, gender and sexual identities. I believe that people are meant to live in relationship, but that often we get stuck in negative cycles of relating to ourselves, others and the world that keep us from growth and joy. In my own life, I have worked and continue to work to break down these things for myself, and I am honored to join others in their work to do the same. :)
College can be a great time, but it can also be a really hard time. I love getting to sit with clients in some of the hardest places in their life, so that they can move to healthier places. I don't promise this is quick or easy, but it is 100% possible. I always offer a free 15 minute consultation to see if I would be a good fit for you therapeutically, so please reach out!
