Trauma Therapist
How I work

Explore the approachesAreas of focus
Individual adult trauma therapy available via telehealth throughout Colorado.
PTSD
Work with the effects of distressing or shock-related experiences.
Complex trauma (CPTSD)
Explore enduring patterns linked to developmental or repeated trauma.
ACEs
Consider how adverse childhood experiences continue to shape the present.
Therapeutic approaches
These descriptions are condensed from the services currently discussed on WildZen.
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)
A practical, collaborative way of defining goals, recognizing strengths and identifying useful next steps. Jeff often starts with this approach to clarify what clients hope to change.
Accelerated Resolution Therapy® (ART®)
A structured approach that uses eye movements and works with the way troubling memories are experienced. It may be used for trauma- or PTSD-related symptoms connected to particular memories.
Somatic Experiencing® (SE®)
Explores the body's responses to overwhelming events, including protective patterns of fight, flight or freeze. Jeff may integrate it into other therapeutic work.
NeuroAffective Relational Model® (NARM®)
Addresses developmental and complex trauma, with attention to present-moment experience, connection, and patterns that may once have been protective.
A conversation before a commitment.
The free consultation offers an opportunity to discuss questions and whether this work may be a fit.

I used to fly for a living.
I'd dreamed of it since I was a boy. Part of that was the adventure, and part of it was wanting out. Home wasn't an easy place to be, and getting into the air felt like the closest thing to freedom I knew.
It took years to get there. I mowed lawns and pulled weeds and, with some help from my parents, got my private license while I was still in high school. Through my twenties I instructed, flew scenic tours over the Canyonlands in Utah, and hauled mail through the dark in small planes over Wyoming and Colorado, slowly building the hours until I finally landed a job at a regional airline. By my thirties I was a captain. I had everything I'd spent all those years reaching for.
And underneath it, I felt like an imposter. Like something was wrong with me. Like I wasn't quite deserving of any of it, and it was only a matter of time before someone found out. I didn't have language for that then, so I tried to outrun it instead, and mostly got in my own way. Close relationships were hard to find, and harder to hold onto..
