Erbie is a Licensed Social Worker dedicated to creating affirming, trauma-informed spaces where healing and self-determination can take root. With experience in crisis settings, case management, and community-based advocacy, Erbie supports clients as they navigate complex life transitions, questions of identity and belonging, and the lasting impacts of trauma and systemic inequities. In therapy, Erbie works collaboratively with each person to build coping skills, emotional resilience, and a deeper sense of connection. Sessions often explore how environment, identity, and lived experiences shape one’s story, with an emphasis on healing that honors the fullness of who you are. Drawing from psychodynamic, psychosocial, and systems theory frameworks, Erbie grounds their work in both emotional insight and social context. If you’re seeking a therapist who will honor your voice, affirm your identity, and hold space for both vulnerability and strength, Erbie would be honored to walk alongside you in your healing journey.
I often work with students who are dealing with anxiety, school stress, family conflict, or feeling overwhelmed by expectations. You might feel like you’re trying to keep everything together while struggling on the inside. In therapy, we’ll slow things down, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and develop skills that help you feel more grounded in yourself and supported in life. I also encourage parent coaching sessions to help caregivers learn tools to better support their child’s emotional growth.
I specialize in trauma therapy, with extensive experience supporting survivors of sexual violence and other traumatic experiences. If you’ve been through something overwhelming, it can feel like a fog has settled over you, affecting every part of your life. You might find yourself overthinking, being on edge, shutting down, or feeling numb, even when you want to feel present and connected. Many people I work with feel stuck in this space and are unsure how to move forward. Together, we’ll work to understand and process your emotions, thoughts, and past experiences so they no longer hold the same power over you. I use EMDR and other approaches to help you address what’s at the core of your symptoms. Feeling safe and understood is essential to this work. We’ll move at a pace that’s manageable for you, creating a space where you can show up as you are without pressure or judgment. While this is a vulnerable process, it’s also what allows for deep, lasting healing. Therapy can help you relate to yourself with more clarity and compassion, develop new patterns, and move toward the life you want to live. If you’re ready to feel more grounded, connected, and fully yourself—and to feel more in control of your life—I invite you to reach out. We’ll start with a conversation and see if working together feels like a good fit.

As an extrovert, I always knew I wanted to work with people, a passion that was strengthened upon witnessing the impact counseling had on our community when my high school endured a school shooting and multiple suicides.

This experience, along with many others throughout my life, have deepened my commitment to providing authentic care, with empathy and dependability infused into each session. Outside of work, you can find me spending time with my corgi Peaches, playing golf, trying new restaurants and coffee shops, and fueling my extrovert through game nights with friends!

You're anxious, depressed, lost, or just feel something is off. I work with folks ready to understand what's actually going on an The people I work with are often keeping it together on the outside. But something won't resolve: anxiety that shows up in everything, depression that's more than just sadness, or being at a point in life where what used to work doesn't anymore. Some come in knowing exactly what they want to address. Others just know something needs to change. Attention and focus, anger, disconnected relationships, persistent worries, tough life transitions, the weight of the past - these are common themes. I've spent 16 years in clinical practice working with individuals through anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, big life changes, and the emotional patterns that run alongside addiction and recovery. My approach is integrative. I draw primarily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Internal Family Systems within a trauma-informed frame, and I work to match the method to the person rather than the other way around. We work to understand what's actually driving your experience, build real insight, and develop strategies that hold outside the session. I'm co-founder of Rule 62 Therapy, a small group practice. Working within a team means clients have access to different approaches, specialties, and schedules, which makes finding a genuinely good fit more likely. Reach out to get started.

Working together, you are empowered to start putting the pieces together in a collaborative and welcoming space, with therapy tailored to your unique story, values, and goals. I use emotionally focused and integrative approaches to help you feel safer, more connected, and more confident. After years working in higher education, and having lost people in my community to addiction, I felt called to help people more deeply, especially communities facing barriers, so they can heal and reach their full potential. I’ve seen firsthand the cultural and religious stigma around mental health, and I wanted to help people feel less alone and more willing to seek support. I continue to believe therapy can be preventive, not just a last resort, and am dedicated to being a source of safety and hope for those in need. I enjoy activities that allow me to connect with others, explore new places, and stay active and balanced. That’s why you’ll often find me in the great outdoors going on hikes and hitting the ski trails or cozied up at home baking and practicing yoga. I also love spending time with family and friends and traveling to new states and countries.

You and your life isn’t one note. You are multifaceted and the demands you face happen to be as well – particularly when you are a student. Currently, the sound-track of your life has moved away from the sounds of a harmonious symphony -or maybe from an upbeat pop song- to something more unnerving and stressful (like the alarm you use to wake up to in the morning or the background music in a horror film—building tension, bracing yourself from some known or unknown threat). It makes sense that life has been overwhelming -increased responsibilities and life demands alone would contribute to this feeling. Add fears about the future, a recent breakup, challenging relationship dynamics with family, and/or other stressors and you might find yourself tipping the scales of your emotional bandwidth. I help students focus on the unique aspects of their lives that are no longer serving them – with empathy, tools, problem-solving, and emotional healing and growth. I believe you can have a richer and higher-quality of life– free from the overwhelming influence of your current life demands, harmful past experiences, poor modeling, and environmental toxicities (psychological).

PEERS® Denver offers parent/coach-assisted social skills programs for teens (ages 13-17) as well as young adults (ages 17-29). Developed at UCLA, the PEERS® program is backed by extensive research showing positive and lasting results in the social lives of the teens and young adults who participate. The goal of the program is to teach skills that are essential for making and keeping friends (and in the young adult program, dating skills are also covered). Meetings are held for 90 minutes once per week over a 16-week period. Each week, the teens and young adults will learn a new set of skills in a particular topic area (for example, starting and maintaining conversations, joining group conversations, having get-togethers, etc.), and they will also get a chance to practice those skills through games, role plays, and other activities. Parents/coaches will meet all together in a separate group at the same time as the teens and young adults. Parents/coaches will learn the exact same skills as their teens and young adults, but they will get specific instruction in how to act as social coaches, so they can most effectively support their teen or young adult in practicing and applying the skills. Groups will be offered both virtually and in-person beginning in January of 2022. For a free 15-20 minute phone screen to learn more about whether this program is the right fit for you and your family, please call the Program Director, Dr. Jason Peirce, at 720-645-8827.
Life has a way of pulling us in more directions than we ever anticipated, and sometimes the weight of it all can make it hard to feel like yourself. With more than ten years of experience as a social worker and therapist, my work is rooted in helping people of all walks of life navigate those moments — whether you're carrying the unique pressures that come with caregiving or military service, an adult managing the demands of daily life, or simply need a little help navigating a mental health struggle. No matter what brings you here, you don't have to face it alone. Together, we'll work through anxiety, depression, grief, stress, life transitions, and self-esteem in a space that feels safe, genuine, and judgment-free. Through active listening and thoughtful conversation, my goal is for you to feel truly understood and hopeful about what lies ahead. I believe that hardship can be viewed from a lens of learning so that life can be experienced on a deeper level. That’s why I take a creative, empowering, and collaborative approach to your healing journey, not only understanding your suffering but using it to build stronger interpersonal connections. This sincere and validating relationship allows us to delve below the surface to identify the root causes of distress and create lasting change. Care is tailored to your unique vision of a brighter future and may include motivational interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help you notice improvement quickly. I was led along the therapeutic path by my spiritual beliefs highlighting the call to bring hope to a hurting world. At the same time, my own experiences as a therapy patient taught me the value of providing the highest quality of care. Together, these perspectives shape my practice now, where I remain committed to bringing competence and creativity to each session while consistently seeking feedback to ensure we are on the right track toward goal realization. Practicing gratitude, singing, and staying in touch with friends are some of my favorite self-care activities in my free time, along with listening to audiobooks, spending time in nature, walking my sweet rescue pup, and watching football. I've also grown to thoroughly enjoy eating a variety of vegetables, though I am still loyal to my sweet tooth as well!
The Journey to Your Internal Compass Starts with One Step. We cannot control what happens to us, but we can control how we respond. It takes courage to seek help for personal struggles. Therapy is like having a compass. The compass provides a sense of safety for travelers as they know they can rely on it to always point them in the right direction. With a compass—any compass—we can always pause for a moment in time and take stock of where we are so that we can continue to grow and change. All of us must change course from time to time because what we are doing isn’t working. If you are struggling with addiction, alcoholism, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, or trauma, allow me the honor to walk alongside you as you take the steps to the authentic you and discover your internal compass. I use evidence-based treatments tailored to individual needs to help clients attain and maintain long-term sobriety, improve relationships and well-being. I offer a safe and confidential environment on telehealth software. Healing happens within relationships and it's crucial you find a therapist you connect with. Call or email me today. Let’s walk this journey together.
