Finding the right therapist is important!
Valerie Senger, MA, LPC, NCC
Valerie graduated in 2012 from Denver Seminary.
Valerie is passionate about helping her clients get over the next hurdle in their life. She knows that smaller moments of change and success in counseling are building blocks for greater mental health success in the future. She knows that insight into some faulty thinking can take a person a long way. As a trauma-informed therapist, she is also skilled at helping clients through more difficult change. Valerie uses metaphors (mnemonics) to help you understand and remember helpful concepts.
Valerie also focuses also on a client’s ability to establish and maintain healthy relationships. Valerie knows that counseling a person who experiences depression, anxiety, OCD, and racing thoughts and sleepless nights, will include their feeling supported, capable, and encouraged as they learn to implement new healthy ways of coping. The client’s goal is reevaluating how to feel about themselves in the world.
Valerie knows that our connection to our family-of-origin is often conflicted. It can take a lot of work and time to earn autonomy in communicating with a dysfunctional family or gain freedom from a toxic family system. Valerie makes it simple by taking you step-by-step into new ways of implementing healthy boundaries and securing a positive self-image. Valerie believes that families present us regularly with opportunities for growth.
Valerie is an eclectic therapist using psychodynamic, Family Systems, CBT/DBT, Mindfulness, and EMDR which are all research-based techniques that will enhance your success, stability, and growth. Valerie has recently taken Somatic and Internal Family Systems therapy and is excited to offer these as options for healing that is much more gentle.
Currently, Valerie is providing telehealth session as well as in-person sessions. She has appointments every day of the week up until 7:00pm. In-person therapy is on Friday mornings.
