Therapy for Adults with Childhood Trauma in Denver, CO & Online
Helping you finish business with your past, so you can have emotional freedom in the present.
Feeling Stuck in Old Patterns? You’re Not Alone.
If you grew up in a dysfunctional family, you might still feel trapped by the past. In the present, you might be constantly second-guessing yourself, over-explaining your choices, or feeling guilty for setting even the smallest boundary. You might struggle with:
Guilt and Pressure – You’re stuck in toxic family dynamics, feeling responsible for others' emotions.
A deep sense of unworthiness – No matter what you accomplish, you feel like it’s never enough.
Feeling empty – You go through the motions of life but feel disconnected from yourself.
Fear of abandonment – You silence your needs to keep relationships intact.
You might be wondering: Will I ever get better?
You are not Broken.
And You want to Enjoy your Life.
You’ve just been carrying beliefs and old patterns that no longer serve you. Healing is about releasing the guilt and self-doubt that have weighed you down so you can step into confidence, trust yourself, and build relationships that feel good. Therapy can help.
Through therapy, you can:
Set boundaries without guilt or fear.
Choose how you respond in triggering situations.
Learn to trust yourself and become confidence in your decisions.
Reconnect with your emotions and feel fully present.
Build healthy relationships based on mutual respect—not obligation.
Hello! I`m Carolina!
I help adults overcome childhood trauma by creating a trusting and real relationship with me where we work together to build confidence and get unstuck from old patterns, so they can have peace in the present and love themselves.
I am not a quick fix therapist. I am not just about symptom relief. I go deep with you in therapy. I'm not here for superficial talk therapy—I’m here to help you dive deep and heal. I am interested in helping you to go to the past and rescuing your young self from the pain they are stuck in.
I help you look at your life in a new way, so you can feel empowered. Your foundation is not your fate.
My Approach to Overcoming Trauma
I take a structured, step-by-step approach to therapy, ensuring you make meaningful progress without spending years in therapy.
1. Deep & Lasting Change
We start with weekly, 50-minute sessions for at least 3-6 months consistency is key to real transformation. (Weekly is strongly recommended at least in the beginning of therapy).
Benefits of weekly therapy:
Doing deep healing work instead of just venting or scratching the surface.
You'll stay focused, feel unstuck quicker, build momentum, and create real change.
Make progress faster, so you don’t get stuck in your feelings the same way you might have done in the past by checking in every two weeks or once a month.
When you are ready, we will transition to biweekly—I want you to heal, grow, and move forward.
2. Experience a Safe and Trusting Relationship Where You Feel Heard.
The foundation of healing starts with trust. When you feel safe with your therapist, you can:
Open up without fear of being judged, so you can safely make sense of what happened to you.
Have a strong therapist-client connection that fosters lasting personal transformation, not just quick fixes.
You’re more likely to engage in deep emotional work and make quick progress.
A safe relationship with your therapist is the key to lasting personal transformation.
3. Heal Your Inner Child: Love Yourself
Much of your present problems comes from unmet childhood needs. Inner child work helps you:
Release guilt, shame, and self-judgment.
Learn to become your own healthy parent so you can love yourself.
Set healthy boundaries and break toxic cycles.
Become Empowered instead of seeking external validation.
We’ll use tools like journaling, visualization, and inner dialogue to nurture and heal the wounded parts of you.
4. Find Peace: Understand Your Inner Conflicts for a Calmer and Empowered Life.
If you feel torn—wanting closeness with family but also needing distance—Parts Work helps you:
Recognize the different “sides” of yourself without judgment.
Integrate conflicting emotions and feel more at peace.
Develop self-leadership, so you are in charge of your life—not old patterns from childhood.
This process brings clarity, emotional balance, and the ability to respond to situations with intention rather than reaction.
5. Release Trauma & The Emotions that Keep You Stuck
Once you’ve built a strong foundation, we use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help you:
Reduce emotional distress faster than traditional talk therapy.
Change negative self-beliefs and develop self-worth.
Stop emotional reactivity.
Heal attachment wounds, so you can develop healthy relationships.
With EMDR, you won’t just talk about your trauma—you’ll process and release it, so it no longer controls you.
