Our 20s is a special time AND it's kind of confusing. We're figuring out who we are and how we fit into this world. No small task. You're feeling frustrated with your relationships and you're not sure how to do things differently. You were never shown how. Where do you fit in this world? Who do you want to be? You're figuring out your passions and how to make that into a sustainable career. I can help you gain clarity and support you as we explore what works and what doesn't. Gently and at a pace that feels good for you. We can clarify your relationship values, understand what healthy boundaries look like in your life, and learn to communicate your needs effectively. I offer both teletherapy and in-person Equine sessions. Working with horses gives us a unique way to connect and learn about ourselves. Visit my website to learn more about my offerings and schedule a complimentary 15-minute phone consult.

I’m Ashton Mullee, and I'm here to support you as you navigate the unique challenges and exciting opportunities of your college journey. College is a time of incredible growth, but it often comes with a hefty dose of stress, uncertainty, and big life changes. You might be feeling the pressure of balancing demanding coursework, maintaining a social life, trying to figure out your career path, finding yourself, exploring sexuality, or struggling with relationship issues. It can feel overwhelming to keep all those balls in the air! If you are a student who is ready to gain clarity, develop practical coping skills for stress and anxiety, work through past traumas, and/or build a stronger sense of safety and self-confidence in your present life, you'll likely be a great fit for my practice. My goal is to create a space where you can finally slow down, understand how your past experiences may be affecting your current reactions, and learn how to move forward with greater ease and resilience.

We also help students and their parents to support families work through any difficult differences that can arise. We offer individual and family therapy, DBT groups, and group psychotherapy. Group psychotherapy is an affordable way to really understand how you are in relationships with others and to work on deeper issues that might occur continuously in relationships.

I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, the complexities of life transitions and more. You might be struggling with unhelpful thought patterns, emotional overwhelm, or difficult dynamics with others—or maybe you're just feeling stuck and not sure why. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back and build meaningful steps toward the life you want to live. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about helping you reconnect with the strength that’s already within you. Real change begins in a space that feels safe, supportive, and real. That’s what I aim to create: a place where you can be fully seen, heard, and supported. I show up as a real person in the therapy room—with empathy, warmth, and curiosity. My approach is active, collaborative, and inclusive, grounded in values like self-compassion, empowerment, and nonjudgmental awareness. I strive to strike a balance between being supportive and gently challenging, so you feel encouraged to grow at your own pace. In our first session, we’ll take time to understand who you are, what you’re experiencing, and how your past has shaped your present. I take a holistic view, honoring your individuality, identity, and lived experiences. Together, we will design a treatment plan grounded in evidence-based practices that may include CBT, ACT, DBT or EMDR, empowering you with tangible tools to support your healing and create lasting change.

Explore yourself and your relationships in a safe space where individuals and couples can ask their questions, speak their truth, look within, and grant one's self permission to feel, be supported, and evolve. Sessions can take place indoors at the office or outdoors, whether it be sitting alongside a river bed, walking a forest trail, or climbing a rock wall. Therapy is a leap of courage and a significant commitment to yourself and those around you. Mental health is achieved through life experiences and managing the happenings of life that unfold before you. You are the ambassador of your mental health!

Plus by APN is a modern mental health practice with a few locations that exists to help you find your next step toward healing and recovery. Maybe this is your first time reaching out for help regarding whatever you're struggling with, and you have no idea where to start. We can help you figure that out with assessments that help us collectively hit a deep understanding of what treatment or therapy might serve you best. OR maybe you've been to a bunch of therapists or tried a whole host of medications, and you're feeling frustrated at how stuck you still feel and how far away healing still feels. We totally get that. In fact, some of us have been there too. And we can help. Along with our mental health assessments, our innovative mental health treatments and offerings can be the perfect next step beyond traditional therapy and psychiatry. We've got a whole team of experts, so we'll bring you our expertise to analyze both your history and your current needs and goals to figure out what to do next. Our experienced providers bring the warmth you want from a therapist, psychiatrist, or treatment tech. You get a one-on-one experience while also having the resources of a larger practice that isn't stuck in just one modality. Sure, we've got a pretty logo and a beautiful building, but don't worry, you won't be reduced to a number with us. Aka, if you need something else that the treatment/therapy you're currently doing, we can help. At Plus by APN, our programs include psychiatry/med management, therapy, a Mental Health IOP (for more intensive therapy), Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (Deep TMS), ketamine assisted healing and therapy, brain mapping and qEEG (to help you see what's going on in different areas of your brain), and neurofeedback to start addressing underactive or overactive parts of your brain that may be causing you distress. All in all, there's a lot we can do to help, and we'd love to help you figure out where to start. If you're new to interventional psychiatry, neurotech, psychedelic treatment, or even therapy, we'd love to chat on the phone to discuss next steps. We offer free consultations with our team to answer any questions you have, go over pricing and insurance options, and help you decide if we're the right fit. Our ultimate goal is your healthy, happy, and fulfilled life and beyond. Let's work together. Reach out via call or email today! We're looking forward to chatting soon.

College is a time of transition and change. This can be a time of struggle and existential anxiety for many people. Everyone has times of uncertainty. I will help you explore who you are and what your predicaments are as you become more yourself. You do not have to do this alone. I have many years experience working with people in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics at all levels. Together we can explore your life and relationships to discover ways in which you can live more authentically, in alignment with your values. I trained and worked in England before moving to Boulder in 2010. I have worked with students and academics all over the world and have over 30 years experience as a therapist; I bring all of that with me as I meet each new client. I will help you describe, clarify and unravel your relationship to the world, your self and other people. We do not have to start with your childhood.

Do you feel stuck in anxiety, numbness, or low self esteem? We're here to help. We are licensed trauma counselors with a niche in childhood trauma and spiritual hurt. Our practice specializes in counseling for anxiety and trauma. Many people dealing with this, have been taught they can't trust themselves, can't love and have autonomy with their body, and have to stick to their respective scripts. These stories have come from harmful religious experiences, childhood trauma, as well as social messaging such as heterosexism, racism, ableism, sizeism cisgenderism, etc. We have the tools to help you be the agent of your own healing. We believe everyone has the innate capacity to heal from distressing experiences in order to move forward and be their authentic compassionate selves.

A therapy session with me always starts with you. I want you to feel safe and comfortable as you share your situation. While making that first call to a therapist is difficult, most people feel great relief once they do. My main focus is Women in College, processing their challenges and moving toward who they want to become. My goal for you, is to help you find relief quickly. I work with people facing a variety of challenges, including: Anxiety, Life Transitions, Stress, Conflict, Trauma and Childhood Trauma. I offer support, encouragement, and guidance. Therapy is not about living a stress-free life, but rather learning how to navigate that stress with confidence and skill. The work we do is interactive, and I will encourage you to explore options, opportunities and choices. We will work together to help you create a sense of calm, self-assurance and stability as you navigate your life and the issues that have brought you in to meet with me. In my experience, clients I have done EMDR therapy with have had quicker, more effective and longer lasting results than traditional talk therapy. Release the past, calm the present, and learn to trust your Inner Wisdom! Call or text Tenaya at: 720-440-0080 Telehealth (computer sessions) available.

Clients who I work best with want to know something about themselves. They may be suffering with any number of symptoms, but also have a curiosity. Maybe there is a sense of something still to be discovered. Through my work with Inner World Building, a hands on, active, somatic therapy, the unknown can be known, felt and expressed in a way that words can't. Not sure if this approach is for you? Feel free to try a demo session and decide for yourself if the method will be useful. The base of this therapy is making, building in the sand and with the figures; not talk therapy. But talking and integrating one's experience is an additive important part of the process.
