hi, I’m desirèe lpcc, ctp ~ therapist & holistic coach

support for women who do too much

grounded, trauma-informed care for burnout, identity loss, and emotional reconnection.

hi, I’m desirèe ~ but you can call me des 🤍

I’ve always been the one people came to when things got heavy. The one who asked deeper questions, and the one who held it all together — until I couldn’t.

I became a therapist to support women like me — the high-achievers, the deep-feelers, the ones who are really good at caring for everyone else.

In my work as a therapist and coach, I hold space for slowing down, getting honest, and reconnecting to yourself in a way that feels grounded and sustainable. That relational, trauma-informed lens continues to guide the care I offer.

how I’ve worked with clients

  • 🌸 Therapy

    Provided trauma-informed therapy for Colorado residents focusing on burnout, perfectionism, and emotional neglect. Sessions supported self-trust, nervous system regulation, and sustainable inner healing.

  • 🌼 Holistic Coaching

    Offered values-based coaching for high-achieving women navigating mindset shifts, identity growth, and self-leadership. Work centered on accountability, self-care, and nervous system awareness.

at this time, I am not accepting new clients

what clients have said it feels like to work together

from past coaching sessions

🌿 like finally having space to admit, “this is a lot.”
🌿 like learning to rest without guilt.
🌿 like sorting through the noise and finding your own voice again.

🌿 like coming home to parts of yourself that have been quietly waiting.

You don’t have to do it all alone.
You’re allowed to receive support ~ gently, at your own pace.

 

“I loved having a time and space to work with Des on how to move forward with my goals and not feel stuck. Having that time together to dive into the challenges, and come out of a session with more clarity, helped move me forward. Des was also able to support me with a variety of challenges that were connected and holding me back—whether in family, relationships, or business.”

— Patty, Coaching Client

"If you are considering coaching-focused personal or career therapy, Des is probably the single most important investment you could make. My goals going into our coaching work were to gain ownership and confidence at work. Not only did she push me to grow outside of my comfort zone, but she also helped me reflect on my behaviors and untangled lots of my hidden and previously-conditioned thought patterns." — Fei, Coaching Client

"I'm absolutely thrilled to share my heartfelt thoughts about Des, my incredible coach, whose impact on my life has been nothing short of transformative. From the very beginning, Des created a warm and gentle space that allowed me to explore and embrace all facets of myself. Her empathetic approach and keen understanding made me feel not just heard, but truly understood." — Yahaira, Coaching Client

how my approach is different

You don’t need to be more productive, more positive, or more “healed” to deserve support.

I support women who have spent years holding it all together—often at the cost of their own needs. Together, we slow down, got honest, and explore what is underneath the overfunctioning.

This work is compassionate, relational, and rooted in trauma-informed care.

You don’t have to figure it all out at once. There’s still room here for your pace.
