Hello, my name is Selina (pronouns: she/her) and psychotherapy is my passion and my path. I embarked on this work in 2011 and have deepened it ever since, seeking to understand trauma, the nervous system, and therapeutic approaches that allow people to live a full life. I have also taken a deep dive into understanding relationships and the way attachment wounds and other aspects of the human experience hinder our ability to deeply connect and feel nourished in relationship. You may find yourself needing stability or sovereignty in the wake of a traumatic experience; or you may seek greater alignment with your own integrity and are asking “who I am really?”; or you decide it is finally time to find relief from anxiety, depression, and daily stressors; or you desire greater connection, communication, and cooperation in your family or partnership. If you are looking for any of this and more, I would be honored to be a part of that process.

Specialty offerings include Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy and couple’s and family retreats, including 1/2 day, full day, and multi-day retreats (lodging not provided).

My formal education took place at Naropa University where I earned a Master’s Degree in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology: Wilderness Therapy. I have since continued with training in mindfulness practice in therapy, somatic (mind/body) trauma therapy, dyatic developmental psychotherapy (DDP), PACT level 2, EMDR, DBT, and Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy.

Hi! My name is Max and I have been practicing psychotherapy since 2008, with a focus on grief counseling, life transitions, disaster and war trauma, and depression and anxiety. My work with clients relies on understanding our developmental history (everything from pre-birth until now), the neuro-psychological link between our minds and body, and our fundamental connection to the natural world. Conveniently, I love spending time outside and so do most of my clients! My work with you will be a journey in time and space, where we will explore the stabilizing power of relationship with animals, plants, and earth. I have taught clinical counseling at Naropa University for five years and have led numerous field courses for Naropa's Wilderness Therapy program. Prior to my work as a counselor I was an international educator, guiding students on remote programs in Tibet, Southeast Asia, and India. I am also a veteran and serve as an officer in the National Guard.

Thora has a strong affinity for people and is excited to join The Forest Edge team as a Therapy Dog once she comes of age. In the meantime, she’s training hard in Puppy School to prepare for her Canine Good Citizenship certification that will lead to her Therapy Dog certification. When Thora isn’t training, she enjoys outdoor adventures with her parents, eating snow, and playing wildly with her canine pals. Her favorite “trick” is catching a tennis ball. Her favorite way to catch humans off-guard is by giving lots of licks as they try to put on their shoes! Thora loves meeting people and looks forward to learning how she can support clients in the office and on the land.
