Welcome!

We’re Ann (MA, LPCC), Jeni (MS, LMFT), Nat (MA, MFTC), and Tasha (MS, PhD, LMFT)

We’re here to work with you in in-person therapy in Fort Collins, Colorado, online therapy throughout Colorado, or online coaching throughout the world. As therapists and coaches, it is a deep honor to be given the permission to hear the stories of our clients and offer our help. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being here.

Creating change with our clients is an art and a science. As scientist-practitioners (you can view dozens of our research publications here or write-ups of research in Forbes here and here), we are lucky to be on the cutting-edge of the science of best practice for improving mental health and relationships. We have hundreds of collective hours of advanced training and mentorship in the most evidence-based modalities, especially Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT; learn more in Tasha’s Psychology Today article about EFT  Couples Therapy), in addition to Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Sex Therapy, Relationship Education/Premarital Enhancement, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Brainspotting, Mindfulness, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Trauma-Informed Yoga. We are also the founder and core members of the Fort Collins EFT Community. We are devoted to using methods that really work to make lasting, profound changes in the lives and relationships of our coaching and therapy clients. You can learn more about who we treat and our approach to couples therapy, individual therapy, family therapy, or worldwide coaching services by clicking on each. We can’t tell you how much we love seeing real change for the clients that we work with! 

You can expect kindness, compassion, warmth, and genuineness from us. Therapy or coaching with us is a space where you will be accepted- not judged. There is a healing power to exploring your experience in a space where you experience curiosity about your experience, being fully listened to, and unconditional positive regard. We are enthusiastic about our work and passionate about your growth; we will bring an enthusiastic and active energy into our sessions as we move you toward your goals. 

Struggles in relationships and life can be incredibly painful, leaving us all with feelings of agony, desperation, grief, numbness, worry, panic, or a sense of being alone in the world. These feelings don’t make us broken, they make us human. Although we all face hardship in life, it can be difficult to reach out for help. We want to reassure you that if you invest yourself in the process of therapy or coaching, we can make true changes in your life. If you are ready for a more fulfilling relationship or life, we are here to accompany you on your path to genuine transformation.  We encourage you to explore our website using the buttons below or reach out if you feel that therapy or coaching with one of us could benefit you. We would love to work with you!
