    • About

    Therapy should be life-changing.

     For many, this means transforming past hurt or trauma and discovering the resiliency and strength that is on the other side of healing. Perhaps it is working through that which holds you back from wholeheartedly embracing your life, regardless of external circumstances. Or, it might mean stepping into rigorous honesty with yourself to take inventory of your relationships and commitments, and let go of what is no longer serving you. 

    For individuals, it can mean:

    • Facing the things that scare you so that there is nothing you need to run from.
    • Creating a connected, fulfilled, and meaningful life, rich with rewarding relationships.
    • Discovering who (or what) you truly are and what you are capable of.

    For couples, it can mean:

    • Learning how to resolve what gets in the way of understanding each other.
    • Moving through past hurt or injury that occurred in the relationship.
    • Growing together towards mature, sophisticated, adult communication and love.

    Therapy requires effort.

    Therapy can be incredibly powerful. Regardless of your struggles, I work best with people who are willing to face all parts of their experience – and themselves – in order to grow.

    This work requires effort. My clients and I have found that the more you give, the more you ultimately receive.

    I work alongside you, encouraging you, trouble-shooting with you, and sometimes lovingly challenging you to show up more completely so that you may know your own strength, capacity, and wellness.

    About Us

    Sashi Gerzon-Rose, MA, LPC 

    I have found profound meaning in working with a diverse range of people, from incarcerated youth to adults, couples, and groups. I love working with couples who are interested in catalyzing their own growth through relationship work, folks who are spiritually inclined, and anyone else who finds themselves questioning the dominant narrative in service of bettering their own lives as well as the lives of others. 

    My experience includes working with: relationships, sexuality and intimacy, spirituality, conflict resolution, psychedelic integration, trauma, loss and grief, anxiety, depression, addictions, and personal growth. I offer supervision and trainings to teach other therapists how to deepen and refine their craft. 

    I am trained in many different modalities and approach this work from many angles, but everything I do is rooted in my own personal practice of meditation, and desire to show up as best I can for the moment just as it is. I am an ordained Zen monk in the White Plum Lineage, and have been studying the nature of consciousness for over 15 years. I am also trained in the Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT, Level 2), which I have found to be deeply powerful in getting to the heart of the matter for couples and individuals alike. I also am trained as a coach, and many clients find the blend of therapeutic knowledge and background with a more practical, practice-oriented style to be refreshing and powerfully effective. 

    I have also facilitated various groups for survivors of childhood sexual abuse, addiction recovery based in mindfulness, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), meditation, and more.

    As a seasoned yoga and meditation teacher, I often bring in an experiential and body-based approach to therapy, because it is  by directly feeling our unique struggles and joys that allows for agency and choice, rather than simply thinking about things. Additionally, it is by exploring and reclaiming the various, disowned parts of ourselves that allows us to move towards a fuller, freer, and more whole expression of who we truly are.

    I live just outside Boulder, CO, with my husband, daughter, and sweet, mischievous dogs. Like most Coloradans, I love spending time outside. I laugh as easily as I cry.
