Why Many Denver Clients Choose Online Counseling

Online therapy has become one of the most helpful ways for people to access mental health support - and for good reason. It offers flexibility, comfort, and privacy, while still providing the same depth and connection of in-person sessions.

You may prefer online therapy if you:

• Have a busy or unpredictable schedule

• Work long hours or commute frequently

• Are a parent managing childcare

• Feel anxious about leaving home

• Travel often or move frequently within Colorado

• Are experiencing a health condition, chronic pain, or mobility limitations

• Prefer the comfort of your own space

• Want easier access to your therapist without transportation barriers

If getting to an office has been one of the things stopping you from starting therapy, online counseling removes that roadblock completely.

Is Online Therapy Effective?

Yes.
Research shows online therapy is equally effective as in-person therapy for most concerns, including:

• Anxiety

• Depression

• Trauma

• Relationship issues

• Emotional regulation

• Stress & burnout

• Life transitions

• Childhood wounds

• Grief & loss

Many clients report that online therapy feels more comfortable, more vulnerable, and easier to attend consistently, because they’re in an environment where they already feel safe.

You get the same connection.
The same compassion.
The same depth of healing.
Just with more flexibility.

What Online Therapy Sessions Look Like

Online therapy is not impersonal. It’s not rushed. It’s not “less real.”

Here’s what you can expect:

• A secure, encrypted video platform designed for mental health

• A 50-minute session focused entirely on your emotional world

• Warm, compassionate support - just as you would receive in person

• A quiet, comfortable space to explore your feelings

• Gentle grounding or mindfulness exercises when needed

• Space to process trauma, grief, anxiety, or relational concerns

• Practical tools for regulating emotions and making sense of internal patterns

For trauma or emotionally complex work, online therapy can actually feel safer, since you’re in an environment you control.

Therapeutic Approaches We Use in Online Sessions

Online counseling at Cherry Creek Therapy is not watered down or limited - all our core modalities translate beautifully to virtual sessions.

IFS Therapy (Internal Family Systems)

IFS works exceptionally well online.
It helps you:

• explore your inner parts

• understand internal conflicts

• soothe the parts of you that feel scared or overwhelmed

• unburden old emotional wounds

Clients often find it easier to go inward from the privacy of home.

Online EMDR Therapy (Tele-EMDR)

EMDR can be adapted through:

• bilateral tapping

• guided eye movements

• online EMDR tools

• paced resourcing and stabilization

Perfect for clients working through PTSD, medical trauma, childhood trauma, or overwhelming memories.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Helps clients and couples build emotional safety and connection - even through the screen.

EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy) for Couples

Effective for repairing emotional distance, communication breakdowns, and trust ruptures.

Somatic + Mindfulness Work

At Cherry Creek Therapy, Jennifer Gardner, MFT-C, guides you in gentle grounding exercises, body awareness, and nervous system regulation - all of which work seamlessly online.

Who Online Therapy Is Ideal For

You may especially benefit from virtual therapy if you are:

• A busy professional or college student

• A parent balancing multiple responsibilities

• A Denver newcomer adjusting to a major life change

• Someone with chronic pain or a health condition

• A client navigating social anxiety or avoidance

• An introvert feeling safer at home

• A frequent traveler who wants continuity of care

• Someone who needs emotional support without commuting

• A person wanting a deeply private therapy experience

Online therapy is often the most accessible and sustainable way to maintain consistent support.

When Online Therapy May Be Better Than In-Person Care

Virtual sessions can be more effective if:

• You need therapy during your lunch hour

• You don't have childcare

• Weather, traffic, or distance makes commuting stressful

• You feel more emotionally open at home

• You’re overwhelmed and leaving home feels too hard

• You need flexibility due to medical or physical limitations

• You’re navigating unpredictable work shifts

• You’re unsure about starting therapy and online feels safer

Therapy should meet you where you are - not the other way around.

• Choose a quiet, private space

• Use headphones for confidentiality

• Silence notifications

• Bring a blanket, water, or grounding object if helpful
