Denver Therapist for ADHD, Trauma, & Life Transitions

Finding the right therapist can feel like a lot of work when you’re already feeling overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, or disconnected from yourself.

I’m Amy, a Licensed Professional Counselor and the owner of Sunshine Counseling, PLLC. I provide individual psychotherapy and adults and teens 16+ in Wheat Ridge and the Denver area.

My approach is warm, authentic, and collaborative with room for humor, honesty, and the complicated parts of being human. Therapy is a place to better understand yourself, work through what’s getting in your way, and find a path forward that feels right for you.

ADHD can affect much more than organization and productivity. It can influence relationships, emotions, motivation, work, self-esteem, and the way you see yourself.

Maybe you struggle to get started on tasks, feel overwhelmed by everyday responsibilities, or wonder why things that seem easy for others feel so difficult for you. You might also be dealing with years of frustration, self-doubt, or feeling like you’re constantly trying to catch up.

ADHD therapy can help you better understand your brain, recognize your strengths, and develop strategies that fit your actual life - not someone else’s expectations.

Together, we can explore challenges such as:

• Executive functioning and organization

• Procrastination and motivation

• Emotional regulation

• Self-esteem and Self-criticism

• Relationship and communication challenges

• Burnout and overwhelm

• Anxiety and life transitions

My approach is collaborative, practical, and strengths based. You don’t need to become a perfectly organized person to make meaningful changes.

EMDR Therapy in Denver & Wheat Ridge

Sometimes you understand intellectually that something is in the past, but your mind and your body continue to react as though it is happening now.

Difficult experiences can shape how we see ourselves, how we relate to others, and how we respond to situations in the present. You might notice anxiety, self-doubt, distressing memories, or emotional reactions that feel difficult to explain or change.

As a Certified EMDR Therapist, I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as a part of a collaborative, trauma-informed approach to help clients process distressing experiences and work toward meaningful change.

Interested in EMDR? Schedule a free consultation to discuss your goals and whether EMDR may be a good fit.
