Elevated EMDR Therapy
EMDR is a method of psychotherapy that can be used alone, or in collaboration with other therapeutic techniques to resolve past trauma and heal old emotional wounds. Not all EMDR is created equal. At Denver Wellness Counseling we consider our work to be Elevated EMDR, as our therapist have training and experience beyond the basic protocol, in order to adapt to a client’s unique needs and goals.

Individual Counseling
Our therapists at Denver Wellness Counseling are committed to providing clients with a transformative experience. Counseling at DWC is based off of collaboration, where the therapist’s clinical expertise meets the client’s internal wisdom of healing. More than just “talk therapy,” counseling is transformative when clients can make sense of their symptoms and build trust in their own capabilities to soothe and heal hurts, both past and present.
