Thirteen Approaches, One Practice
Therapy Methods for Women in Colorado
Most women arrive here having tried to sort it out alone for longer than they meant to. You do not need to know which of these you want. That is what the first call is for.

Therapy Methods We Offer
Grouped by theme. Every one of these therapy methods is offered at all five offices and over secure video anywhere in Colorado.
Structured and Skills-Based
You want a plan and something to do between sessions.
Trauma and the Body
Talking about it helped and your body never got the message.
Couples and Family
The same argument again, or a family pattern nobody has said out loud.
Emotionally Focused Therapy
Underneath the same argument there is usually a cycle, and underneath that a bond. This works on both. Mostly couples, sometimes families.
EFT →
The Gottman Method
The structured couples model. It starts by assessing where the two of you actually are, then works on conflict and repair.
Gottman Method →
Family Systems Therapy
Your family runs as one unit, which is why changing your own part can move it. Often done with nobody else in the room.
Family systems therapy →
Attention and Meaning
The thinking will not stop, or nothing is wrong and nothing means much.
Mindfulness Therapy
Short practices you can use in thirty seconds, taught by somebody watching what happens when you do.
Mindfulness therapy →
Gestalt Therapy
You say it out loud in the room instead of describing it. The empty chair is the part most people have heard of.
Gestalt therapy →
Transpersonal Psychology
For the questions underneath the symptoms. Meaning, purpose, and belief treated as real material.
Transpersonal psychology →
Led by You
You would rather not be steered.
Talk Therapy
The plain version with no named protocol, and where most women start.
Talk therapy →
Client-Centered Therapy
You lead. Your therapist follows without steering, even subtly.
Client-centered therapy →
Empowerment Therapy
Starts from what you already do well, not from a symptom list. Its roots are in feminist therapy.

Where to Start
You Do Not Have to Choose First
Anxiety that got louder. A relationship circling the same argument. Something from years ago that still decides how your week goes. Women bring all of it to Colorado Women's Center, and almost none of them arrive naming a method.
Your Wellness Coordinator asks what is happening and matches you with a therapist who works with exactly that. The approach gets sorted out from there. The list above is here so you can see what the practice actually does, and so you can say if something on it is what you came for.
Thirteen approaches, and one conversation to work out which.
Our Promise to You
We Guarantee Our Therapist Matching
Choosing correctly from that list is not your job. Your Wellness Coordinator works it out with you on the first call, and your therapist keeps working it out after that. If the therapist is wrong for you, tell us and we'll match you with another at no additional cost.

Questions About Choosing a Method
Do I have to choose a method before I book?
No, and most women do not. You describe what is going on and your Wellness Coordinator matches you with a therapist who works with it. The approach gets settled between you and that therapist over the first few sessions, and it usually shifts again as the work goes on.
Can my therapist use more than one?
Yes, and most do. Therapists at Colorado Women's Center are trained in several approaches and combine them instead of running one from start to finish. What you get in week six may not be what you got in week one.
What if I want a specific method?
Say so on the Match Call and you will be matched with a therapist trained in it. That happens most often with EMDR and with the couples approaches, where women have usually done some reading before they call. Wanting something specific makes the match easier, not harder.
How soon can I start?
Match Calls are usually available within 48 hours, often within 24. Most clients are with a therapist within about a week. Offices are open seven days a week, 8am to 8pm, and online sessions run the same hours. Call 720.810.2355 or use the form on this page.
