Coaching by Julie Colwell, Ph.D.

My emphasis is on facilitating my clients’ growth through their own deep knowing. I offer my presence, powerful tools of transformation, and a steadfast view of my clients as whole. To this end, I love to work with folks who are looking to empower themselves. I coach my clients in developing the following:

• Complete access to emotional experience and expression;
• Personal integrity;
• Taking responsibility for creating their own life circumstances;
• Willingness to create change easefully and playfully.

I received my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Colorado in 1988 and have been licensed as a psychologist in Colorado since 1991. Since beginning with a psychodynamic/systems perspective, I have shifted my emphasis to a much more body-centered orientation. Though I was trained to be rather traditional (learning to assess and diagnose), I now find that orientation to create a one-up, one-down relationship with clients that actually obstructs real change. I now operate from a position of facilitator, supporting you to discover your essential self and your own true power.
I generally work in a framework of 50-55 minute sessions, and am happy to create a structure that works for you (longer or shorter sessions).

Because using insurance requires giving you a diagnosis, and so starting with a frame of psychopathology (which is not how I see you), I do not accept insurance.
