Life is stressful as hell sometimes. There's work, family, relationships, climate change, and terribly long customer support chats with bots that make you want to throw your phone out the window. I get it. If you’re feeling burnt out, haunted by past relationships, or just unsure of how to show up for your partner or for yourself, then you’re in the right place.

Hi, I’m Lindsay, a queer therapist, and I’m passionate about supporting folks in the LGBTQ+ community. Together, we'll work to help you find the clarity you need in your life to make decisions and heal from the past. I am EMDR trained with extensive experience supporting folks with trauma. In sessions with me, you'll find that I lean heavily on Internal Family Systems to explore the different sides and layers of you while building your confidence to navigate life's challenges and make important decisions.

For couples and partners, I'm here to support you in your relationship, for improved communication skills, connection, and understanding. Sometimes past traumas or current stressful situations with family, work, or society, impact the relationship in big ways. Together in sessions, using Emotionally Focused Therapy tools, I will help you and your partner practice skills for effective listening rooted in compassion, understanding, and connection. From this work, you'll learn invaluable communications skills you can rely on.

Finding a therapist is hard. Finding a queer therapist, someone you don't have to explain yourself to, is even harder. I get that, and I see you. I’m glad you’re here. Message me today to get started on your journey toward healing.

Frequently Asked Questions

---

When will I hear back from you?

We return inquiry emails within one to two business days, Monday through Friday, holidays excepted. Inquiries received Friday late afternoon or evening as well as inquires received on weekends will be returned on Monday. Please check your junk mail or spam folders if not hearing from us within the time frame previously noted.

Why is Rooted Acorn Counseling Out of Network?

There are many reasons we do not accept insurance. Not contracting with insurance companies allows us freedom as therapists to focus on providing quality services to you. We have the time and resources to be fully focused on each individual. Insurance companies reimburse private practice therapists at a rate that is not sustainable without therapists making choices to overbook their calendars. The latter impacts therapists and the folks choosing to work with them. When therapists are overbooked, they are less effective, less present, and more prone to burnout, which then negatively impacts the quality of care you are ultimately receiving. We know this scenario never serves anyone involved. It sucks! So, we have made the difficult choice to not contract with insurance companies. We do offer a limited number of sliding scale spots to offset this and know this is only a small way we can impact this much larger scale issue.

What is your cancellation policy?

We request at minimum 24 hours advanced notice if you wish to cancel or reschedule your session. For any no show or late cancellation, you will be charged the full session fee. We are aware that life happens and Colorado winters are unpredictable! We are always willing to offer make-up sessions in the case of emergency, illnesses and dangerous driving conditions.

Will I have homework after my sessions?

Homework will not be a requirement of your therapy unless it is helpful to you and your growth. We recognize that for some folks that accountability and tangible objectives are motivating, so if you are thinking this is you, let’s work together to set-up targeted at-home practice. Please know you are empowered to grow and approach therapy in a way that is unique and beneficial to you. Homework will never be something we will require, or insist that you complete as part of your therapy.
