GLOW Counseling
Denver, Colorado
GLOW Counseling can help make a difference in how you experience your current and future life and relationships. We help through the following approaches:
Growth
You may have experienced growth and creativity in the past, but now feel stuck, or, you may be unable to move through some critical or transitional point in your life. GLOW Counseling can help!
Liberation
You may be living with external or internal limitations, current or past abuse or trauma, grief and loss, judgements, restrictive roles and expectations, addiction, low self esteem, problem relationships, or negative self-concept and beliefs. These may constrict and trap you to a path of loss and defeatism. GLOW Counseling can help!
Opportunity
You may have a vision of who and what you want to be, individually, or in relationship, but not know how to get there. Anger and resentment may get in the way, or you may even self-sabotage your desired goals. GLOW Counseling can help!
Well-being
Sometimes, even when everything else is going well in your life, “it just doesn’t feel right.” There’s a barrier between how you behave, what you perceive, and what you feel. Anxiety and stress, depression, or sexual dysfunction may be restricting you. GLOW Counseling can help!
By helping you understand and be comfortable with who you are, where you are, and why you’re at this place in your life, you can open up to all of life’s opportunities and your own growth, liberation, and potential. We realize that having a solid, positive connection with your therapist is a critical part of creating a successful outcome and that we can’t be all things to all people, but, we won’t know if we don’t try. Give us a call for a free “getting-to-know-you” phone consultation. Confidentiality guaranteed!
Trained in marriage and family counseling, I see pre-marital, married, co-habitating, and gay and lesbian (LGBT) partners for couples counseling, in my Denver, Colorado mental health practice. As a certified sex therapist, I help couples deal with sexual and mental health issues such as low sexual desire, painful sex, sexual dysfunction, or sex/porn addiction.

GLOW (Gays and Lesbians Out and Well) is psychotherapy and counseling with a gay-affirming focus for the Denver, Colorado, LGBT community. GLOW specializes in helping Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender (GLBT) persons come out and grow emotionally, psychologically and spiritually. GLOW’s gay counseling is based on the premise that sexuality, creativity, and spirituality are intertwined and dependent on the affirmation of an authentic self-identity. Our work is informed by a philosophy that seeks equality and mental health and wholeness for all people. Click here to learn more about my approach to LGBT issues.
Silence about sexual issues is the great killer of relationships. It is common for people to encounter sexual problems, at any age. Women may experience arousal and orgasm difficulties, low sex drive, or pain during intercourse, while men may struggle with erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, and low libido. What is uncommon is for people to speak and do something about those problems before they irreparably damage their self-esteem and relationships. To learn more about Sex Therapy options, click here.
We can talk about options for a healthier, more satisfying, and productive life. Sexual addictions or compulsive behaviors can take over your life, whether it be internet pornography and cybersex, phone sex lines,strip clubs, bath houses, bookstores, cruising spots, or any other form of anonymous sex. It leaves you feeling empty and alone. Click here to learn more.
The causes of your distress may be immediate or rooted in your history. It may be difficult to tell the difference between the source of your stress, anxiety, grief, or discomfort, and your current struggles. You may even try to correct the wrong problems. You may suppress, avoid, or even self-medicate trauma with compulsive behaviors or addiction. There is HELP and HOPE for current or past trauma, PTSD, and abuse!
