Testing — THERAPY WITH CHAUCEE

We aren’t born questioning our worth, expecting the worst, or feeling like we had to earn love, prove ourselves, or keep everyone else happy.

Many of the patterns that leave us feeling stuck are adaptations—ways our minds and bodies learned to protect us. They may have helped you survive at one point, but now they might be keeping you from living the life you want.

Therapy isn't about fixing - it's about understanding your story with compassion instead of criticism, making sense of the patterns that no longer serve you, and helping you move toward a life that feels calmer, more connected, and more authentically your own.

Meet Your Therapist

Hi, I’m Chaucee - a trauma therapist in Colorado who believes therapy works best when it feels authentic, relational, and collaborative—with a touch of humor for good measure.

Alongside my service dog Jax, I support adults navigating complex trauma, C-PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, recovery, and substance use concerns through a harm reduction lens.

Areas I Commonly Support

People come to therapy for many different reasons. Here are some of the concerns I commonly support.

Complex trauma often develops from repeated experiences where safety, connection, or trust were disrupted over time. It can show up as feeling constantly on edge, emotionally shut down, disconnected from yourself, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Therapy can help you better understand how these experiences continue to shape your life while creating new ways of relating to yourself, others, and the world around you.
Anxiety isn’t always panic attacks. Sometimes it looks like replaying conversations, expecting the worst, struggling to relax, or feeling like your mind never gets a break. Together, we’ll explore what may be driving your anxiety while building practical tools to help you feel more grounded, present, and confident in trusting yourself.
Depression can leave you feeling emotionally exhausted, disconnected, or like you’ve lost the version of yourself you used to know. Burnout can have a similar effect, making it difficult to find motivation or experience joy. Therapy provides space to understand what’s contributing to these feelings while helping you reconnect with what matters most to you.
Many men have been taught to push through, stay strong, or keep difficult emotions to themselves. Therapy offers a space to talk openly, develop healthier ways of coping, and navigate life’s challenges without judgment.

Relationships often reflect the ways we’ve learned to protect ourselves. Whether you struggle with people-pleasing, boundaries, conflict, trust, or feeling disconnected from others, therapy can help you understand these patterns with curiosity rather than judgment while creating healthier ways of connecting.
If your faith or religious upbringing left you carrying shame, fear, or confusion, therapy can provide space to process those experiences, explore your beliefs, and reconnect with your values—whatever that looks like for you.
Grief comes in many forms—not just after the death of someone we love. You may be grieving a relationship, a version of yourself, your health, or a life you expected to have. Therapy offers space to honor your grief, make sense of what you’re carrying, and find ways to move forward without leaving your experiences behind.
Recovery isn’t about perfection. Whether you’re questioning your relationship with substances, maintaining long-term recovery, or simply wanting to understand your patterns more deeply, therapy offers a space free from shame or judgment. My approach is grounded in harm reduction and recognizes that healing looks different for everyone.
