Dissociative Disorders (DID) Therapists in Denver, CO

The therapeutic work I practice is grounded in a respect for the capacity of individuals to intuitively know where they are, where they want to be, and their resiliency and capacity for change. Sometimes that intuitive knowing is as simple as, not where I am now, or I find myself acting in ways I told myself I wouldn't or saying things to other's that hurt me when I was young. Sometimes it can be noticing things that work in some ways but also cause distress, such as substance use, isolation, or constant need for work or movement. And knowing and striving to feel more at ease and a better sense of well-being.

I believe it's hard to be human. We sometimes assume we should know how to do it, yet we are incredibly complex. People are a cosmos of thoughts, emotions, and desires and the burden of our history can be immense. It's easy to feel alone and overwhelmed inside. Part of us may want to be seen and supported while another part blocks others out in shame. Bad therapy pries people open and treats them like a problem to be solved. Good therapy helps us value the person we are beneath our problems while assisting the pain and hope we carry to converse in order to find a way toward a life that is worth caring about.

Negative experiences shape how we think about ourselves, but they don't have to define us forever. We can learn new ways of relating to ourselves and the people around us via a variety of therapeutic modalities. With a therapist who can hold space for you with compassion and wisdom, you can overcome obstacles and cultivate resilient wellbeing. ​ I might be helpful to you if: You know what it is like to feel held back from life, but don’t know how to engage; You crave connection and community, but feel uncomfortable reaching out to others; You feel disconnected from your body – you may not recognize there is a disconnect.

When therapy really works, the experience is soul-feeding and transformative. I work with people who want to deeply understand themselves, and any suffering they may be experiencing, as part of the path to feeling more grounded, content, and whole. This path is often mysterious and difficult, with twists and turns that can be hard to predict. But the process is also full of meaning and growth. I'm especially looking to work with people who are interested in investing deeply in this process and open to meeting multiple times per week.

**Not accepting new clients at this time** There's something different about you. Maybe you're figuring out what sexuality, gender, and romantic life can look like, or exploring polyamory or kink. Or maybe your life has been changed by traumatic experiences. Maybe you're a plural system. You may view the world through a neurotype or spiritual lens that doesn’t match the people around you. Or you might be a parent, just looking for answers for your kid. It might be really hard to trust people--to risk opening up about what you're dealing with. I get it. It’s hard to know who actually has your back.

Hello! May name is Cara Czarnecki and I am the Owner/ Clinical Director of Tabula Rasa Counseling. Are you looking for a therapeutic approach that is different than what you might be used to? Are you ready to explore the root of the problem that is continuing to cause you the symptoms you are struggling with? At Tabula Rasa we believe in bottom up approaches that target the root of the problem. We are an EMDR, IFS informed practice that uses progressive approaches to healing.

I strongly believe in the human capacity for resilience, healing, and transformation and I am passionate about tailoring therapy to fit the individual and their strengths. Most of all though I genuinely care and invest myself in the people I serve, I have worked with clients experiencing a variety of conditions such as panic disorder, sexual/physical abuse, anxiety/depression, disturbing memories, trauma, stress reduction, and addiction. I am however particularly passionate in providing therapy to the LGBTQ+ community, a population in which individuals are statistically more likely to experience a mental health condition.

I work with individuals, 18 and older, who are looking for a trusted, compassionate partner to embark on their healing journey with. I work collaboratively, inclusively, and always with a holistic, trauma-informed lens. I focus on (complex) trauma, (C)PTSD, DID & other dissociative disorders, and addressing a variety of related symptoms from repeated/chronic trauma (including ritual abuse). Whether you are brand new to therapy or are someone who’s tried various other approaches without success, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. Visit the "Work With Me" page through my linked website to read more about my therapeutic niche.

I provide non-judgmental support and specialize in the treatment of anxiety and depression in the aftermath of stressful situations. Whether this was growing up in a dysfunctional home environment or experiencing unique traumatic events, I want to help you reach your goals.

Through using evidence-based techniques such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I can help.

Sometimes overwhelming and painful experiences from our past have a negative impact on our present. This can look like: BIG emotions in response to daily stressors Depression that just isn’t lifting Panic & anxiety that hinders your performance, sleep, & wellbeing. Be it coping with a cancer diagnosis, the aftermath of narcissistic abuse and co-dependency, healing from sexual assault, or dealing with the repercussions of a car accident - these life experiences can profoundly affect us. So often, it's a series of accumulating events that lead to chronic stress, overwhelming our current capacity to manage and cope.

Having to face the daily challenges and exhaustion of life can wear a person out. Dealing with constant worry and struggles can feel like an uphill battle. You often wonder if you will ever overcome the past. You feel like no one understands what you've been through. You wish someone would not just hear you but actually stop to listen without questioning your experience or your mood. You’re tired of feeling isolated and alone while struggling with guilt, shame, and anger. You’re tired of having nightmares, sleepless nights, and intrusive thoughts which replay over and over in your mind. All you want is the pain to stop.

Many will enter therapy thinking, “What have I been doing wrong to get here?” I meet clients and think, “What have you been doing right to make it this far?” Yes, I think a bit backwards, but it’s what allows me to find innovative ways to help clients move forward using their strengths. Individuals, couples, and families who have previously felt stuck in complex issues with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief & loss, adoption, parenting, and relationships report finding relief through embracing their strengths and being reassured that their experience is valid. This helps tap into their innate ability to heal and renew balance.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or PTSD? Do you feel emotionally stuck? Or do you feel like your emotions high-jack you? Have people told you they can't get close to you? Have you tried to live a full and meaningful life but find you need help to overcome something in your past? I would love to meet with you. My approach is to teach skills that can bring relief in the short term, while we work together to discover and heal the deeper roots of your emotional pain. I am certified in EMDR and trained in IFS but use whatever skill or technique is most effective for each client.
