We are a team of highly specialized trauma therapists with a combined 40+ years of experience serving our clients’ individual and relationship needs.

Online therapy and coaching can also serve as an addition to in-person therapy for those that travel often or get stuck in rush hour too often. Clients that reside in Colorado are specifically eligible for online therapy. Outside those states? Check out our coaching section.
Most therapists have little to no training in sexuality.
Even couple’s therapists often don’t receive education around sexuality issues and the most common issues a couple’s therapist sees is about sexuality.
Choose a highly trained couples therapist and sex therapist that is AASECT Certified or working toward SHA certification.
Choose a highly specialized therapist with even more training and supervision.
When you see a Respark therapist, you know that your therapist has the most up to date information and specialized training to help you create the life you want that sparks joy.
HOW CAN TRAUMA-INFORMED THERAPY HELP ME?
You might have have experienced:
- Flashbacks,
- Low self esteem
- Insomnia
- Low confidence or low self esteem
- Painful emotions
- Relationship distress
- Constant reliving of the event
Trauma therapy can help ease your symptoms and allow you will learn new skills and techniques to cope with the experience. When you have experienced a traumatic event or something that was unsettling, you may not be able to process information the same way you did in the past. You might then feel triggered more often and thus not be able to live your life as you desire.
Remembering the event can often feel as bad as the first time you experienced it, and new experiences can trigger a similar distressing reaction. Because of this, traumatic experiences can remain unresolved and cause ongoing disruptions in various aspects of your life, including how you feel about yourself, how you see the world and how you relate to others.
WHAT IS EMDR THERAPY?
EMDR therapy can also help reduce the effects of your painful memories. EMDR therapy aims to change our negative relationships with painful memories.
EMDR stands for: Eye, Movement, Desensitization and Reprocessing.
