Online Therapy for Women in Denver and Across Colorado
You Can Be Good at Your Life and Still Feel Lost in It
What We Can Work On
Finding Your Way Forward
Midlife, Menopause & Life Transitions
There are seasons when the life you built no longer feels quite like your own. You may be questioning relationships, work, identity, caregiving roles, or what you want the next chapter to look like. Therapy can help you make sense of what is changing, grieve what no longer fits, and move toward a life that feels more honest, spacious, and fully yours.
Making Room for Joy
Anxiety, Overthinking & Reconnection
Anxiety can make life feel like something to manage rather than something to experience. You may spend so much time anticipating problems, replaying conversations, or trying to keep everything under control that joy begins to feel far away. Together, we can help you understand the patterns beneath the overthinking, quiet the constant mental noise, and reconnect with curiosity, playfulness, and the parts of yourself that have been crowded out.
Building Steadiness
Trauma, Grief & Emotional Grounding
When you have been through loss, trauma, or years of carrying too much, even ordinary life can feel unsteady. You may find yourself bracing, shutting down, overfunctioning, or trying to hold everything together for everyone else. Therapy can help you understand these responses without shame, build a greater sense of safety, and create steadiness one choice, one boundary, and one moment at a time.
Helping You Find Your Way Back to Yourself
I’m Lurah Patrick, MA, LPCC, a Colorado Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate providing counseling under clinical supervision to adults throughout the state.
Many of the women I work with are capable, thoughtful, and accustomed to being the person everyone else depends on. They manage the details, anticipate what others need, and keep showing up—even when something inside them feels exhausted, unsettled, or increasingly difficult to ignore.
You may not be falling apart. You may simply have reached a point where the ways you have always coped are no longer working—or where the life you built no longer feels entirely like your own.
I see therapy as a place to pause long enough to hear yourself again.
Together, we can look honestly at the experiences that shaped you, the roles you have carried, and the patterns that once protected you but may now be keeping you stuck. We can also make room for the parts of you that want something different: more freedom, more connection, stronger boundaries, or simply a clearer sense of what comes next.
My approach is warm, collaborative, honest, and grounded in curiosity rather than judgment. I integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Internal Family Systems-informed work, narrative therapy, somatic approaches, and practical skills from CBT and DBT. There is also room for humor, direct conversation, and the fact that none of us moves through life perfectly.
I do not believe therapy is about fixing you. It is about understanding what you have carried, reconnecting with what matters to you, and reaching toward a life that feels more honest and fully your own.
My approach to therapy:
I do not believe therapy should feel like a string of polished phrases, endless nodding, or a worksheet handed to you before anyone understands what is actually happening.
Therapy with me is collaborative, direct, compassionate, and human.
We will look at the experiences that shaped you, the stories you learned about who you were supposed to be, and the protective patterns that helped you get through difficult things. We will also pay attention to what is happening in your life now and what needs to change outside the therapy room.
I integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Internal Family Systems-informed work, narrative therapy, somatic and nervous-system-based approaches, and practical skills from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies.
In plain language, that means we may explore:
The thoughts and fears that keep running the show
The parts of you that work hard to protect you
The family roles and expectations you learned early
What happens in your body when you feel threatened or overwhelmed
The difference between what you value and what fear tells you to do
Practical ways to respond differently in difficult moments
You can expect warmth, curiosity, honesty, and room for humor.
I will not judge you, rush you, or treat you like a collection of symptoms. I will also not pretend that insight alone changes everything. I will support you while helping you notice the places where fear, guilt, avoidance, or old patterns may still be making choices on your behalf.

Getting Started
Finding a therapist can feel strangely vulnerable.
You may have read several profiles that all seem to say the same thing. You may be unsure what you need, whether your problems are “serious enough,” or how to explain everything in a short consultation.
You do not need to arrive with a perfect summary of your life.
A free consultation gives us a chance to talk briefly about what is bringing you to therapy, what you hope might be different, and whether my approach feels like a good fit.
There is no pressure to tell your entire story in that first conversation.
We can begin with what feels most important right now.
Please do not include sensitive medical, mental health, safety, or emergency information.
Online Therapy Throughout Colorado
All sessions are offered through secure telehealth, allowing you to attend therapy from a private space that works for you.
Online therapy is available to adults located throughout Colorado, including Denver, Aurora, Lakewood, Littleton, Arvada, Boulder, Fort Collins, Colorado Springs, and surrounding communities.
You must be physically located in Colorado during your appointment.
Telehealth can be especially helpful when commuting, work schedules, caregiving responsibilities, health concerns, or simply having a full life make traditional office-based therapy difficult.
You are welcome to show up from a quiet home office, your bedroom, or another private space. You do not need to make your surroundings—or yourself—look perfectly put together.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer online therapy?
Yes. I provide secure online therapy to adults who are physically located in Colorado at the time of the session.
Who do you work with?
I primarily work with adult women experiencing anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship difficulties, caregiver stress, identity changes, and the emotional challenges of perimenopause, menopause, and midlife.
I also work with adults whose concerns fall outside those categories when my experience and approach are a good fit for what they need.
What type of therapy do you provide?
My approach integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Internal Family Systems-informed therapy, narrative therapy, somatic and nervous-system-based work, and practical CBT and DBT skills.
I do not use a one-size-fits-all formula. We will shape therapy around your goals, your history, your strengths, and the way you naturally make sense of your experiences.
Will therapy just involve talking about my past?
Your past may help us understand what is happening now, but therapy will not be limited to reviewing old experiences.
We will also focus on your current relationships, choices, emotional patterns, physical responses, and the changes you want to make in your life.
How do I know whether you are the right therapist for me?
You may be a good fit for my practice if you want a therapist who is warm and compassionate but also willing to be honest, curious, and appropriately challenging.
A free consultation allows us to discuss what you are looking for and get a sense of whether working together feels comfortable and useful.
Are you licensed?
I am a Colorado Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate, or LPCC.
This is a regulated Colorado credential for counselors who have completed their graduate education and are completing post-graduate supervised experience toward independent LPC licensure.
I provide counseling under clinical supervision.
What does clinical supervision mean?
Clinical supervision is a required part of my work as a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate. It provides structured professional oversight, consultation, and support for ethical and effective clinical practice. Client privacy remains protected within the legal and professional framework governing supervision.
Do I need to be in crisis to start therapy?
No.
Many people begin therapy because they are tired of feeling anxious, disconnected, resentful, stuck, or unlike themselves. You do not need to wait until your life becomes unmanageable.
Please contact me for current fee and insurance information. All fees, billing policies, and financial responsibilities will be reviewed before counseling begins.
