My name is Debi Circle. I received my Master’s of Arts degree from Denver Seminary in 2001 and have had a private practice for 7 years, beginning in 2002. I also facilitate a group with the WINGS Foundation, a support group for adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse. Currently, I am in training at the Gestalt Institute of the Rockies in Golden, CO, working on my Gestalt certificate. My therapeutic approach is psychodynamic which means I use and appreciate a variety of therapeutic insights from several theorists. They include Margret Mahler, Fritz Perls (Gestalt), Carl Rogers, and Eric Erikson and Irving Yalom. I would be happy to elaborate on any of these and how I appreciate their work in my therapy if you would like to know more.

I primarily work with women, feeling like I have a real heart and sensitivity for women and the issues with which they struggle. I listen carefully and with compassion, as well as offer feedback and some psycho education. I want you to feel my office is a safe place where you feel heard, valued, and cared about. I also want to establish a trusting relationship with you where you feel you can talk openly and confidentially. This has been found to be the most important aspect to productive healing.

I am dedicated to high quality care, to help and support you in:

• Discovering what you really want and how to set boundaries to make it happen, rather than repeating painful patterns
• Stop feeling guilty about behaviors and choices you made
• Being able to identify what your needs are and what makes you happy, rather than feeling guilty or overly responsible for other people’s happiness
• Giving yourself more grace and compassion, rather than feeling shame about who you are, what happened to you and/or fearing how other’s perceive you
• Understanding why you make certain parenting choices, and develop new parenting skills and strategies, rather than feeling like an inadequate or “bad” parent
• Developing a more understanding and positive voice and a feeling of value and self worth and quiet the critical, self deprecating voice

My fees are $75.00 for a 60 minute session. I do offer a complimentary 45 minute session,so that I can answer any questions you may have, you can see my office space and so we can get an initial “feel” for each other. Occasionally, I will work with clients on a sliding scale, but if the reduced rate is still too high, I will provide a referral of therapists or interns that might meet your financial situation better.

I invite you to call me at 303-514-4732 for a free consultation.
