Kristen Ezsol, MA, LPC

Welcome!

I’m so glad you’re here! I would love to help you make sense of what you’ve been through and reconnect with more of who you are—especially in your relationships with others and with yourself. I work with clients in person in Denver, CO, and online throughout Colorado, as well as virtually with clients in South Carolina.

I bring a warm, compassionate, and genuine approach to the therapy room. My work is trauma-informed, emotion-focused, body-centered, and deeply relational. You’ll hear me talk a lot about being gentle and kind toward yourself, getting curious about your experiences, and peeling back the layers to explore the needs, emotions, and parts of yourself that may have gone unseen or unmet.

My approach is also highly experiential. Rather than simply talking about what’s happening, we’ll slow down and become curious about your present-moment experience—including what you notice in your emotions, your body, and our therapeutic relationship. Some of my most profound experiences of growth and connection have happened when I’ve felt deeply seen and heard in the therapy space. I genuinely believe there is something transformative about having another person sit with us, make sense of our experiences alongside us, and help undo the feeling of aloneness.

As an advocate for racial and social justice and equity, I believe our context matters. Our experiences are shaped by our relationships, families, communities, identities, and the larger systems we live in. You are the expert of your life, and every part of you and your story deserves space to feel held, understood, and respected.

I’ve been working in the mental health field for over six years, with most of my training focused on Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)—approaches that incorporate attention to the body, emotions, and nervous system.

My background in culinary arts, holistic nutrition, and hospitality also shapes my relationship with this work. I’ve loved learning about the body for years, and when I began exploring the connection between the body, emotions, and trauma, I knew I had found my fit. I believe our bodies hold important information about our experiences, and learning to listen to and feel more at home in our bodies can be an important part of healing.

Ultimately, I hope therapy can help you develop a deeper understanding of yourself, feel more connected to your emotions and needs, and experience greater ease and safety within yourself and your relationships. Most of all, I would love to help you feel more at home and at ease in your body.
