Hi my name is Mark Miller, CEO and lead therapist At Your Convenience Mental Health and Relationship Counseling of Denver (AYCMARC). I designed AYCMARC is for busy and nocturnal people. We are open when everyone else is closed. AT AYCMARC we believe that Your day off is your day off and should be used for fun, Not Therapy! At AYCMARC you can receive quality mental health counseling, addiction counseling, career counseling, and relationship counseling and/or mental health assessment, career assessment, and psycho-neurological assessment at your convenience. At AYCMARC we know that life happens when most mental health, addiction, career, relationship counseling, and assessment practices are.open. We Also understand you cannot leave early without risking your job. Until now your only option was to race to the counseling center after work so you are not over 15 minutes late and turned away because of your tardiness, but are still expected to pay for the session. The last choice is not receiving the help you or family needs. This may be fine for some people, but what if you court ordered? What if you cannot handle or cope with your issues without professional help. At AYCMARC we believe that you should not have to suffer because of inconvenient mental health, addiction, assessment, career, and relationship counseling practice hours. AYCMARC recognizes that you are busy after work taking the kids here or there, trying to get supper ready and other chores. At AYCMARC we know how hard it is for you to squeeze counseling in the mist of all this. This is one of the reasons why we are open late; for the busy person and family who wants to heal or strive for wellness. AYCMARC also realizes that some people work late at night, your nights are days and days are nights. Research on sleep is clear there needs to be consistency with a sleep schedule. Inconstancy of sleep hour can cause insomnia. It is no wonder why you have sleeping problems because most mental health, addiction, and relationship counseling practices are making you get up in the middle of your night on your day off.

Tina Cushman is a Child, Adolescent and Family Therapist offering counseling, therapy and consultation throughout Denver and the southern suburbs (Centennial, Greenwood Village, Cherry Hills Village, Littleton, Highlands Ranch, Aurora, Parker and Lone Tree). For over a decade I have had the honor to work with children, adolescents and their parents to help through difficult or transitional times. I specialize in working with children and teens on issues such as divorce/blended families, anxiety, ADHD, depression, self-injury, school performance and relationship issues.

Tapping, which is also known as EFT or Emotional Freedom Techniques, is an extremely powerful mind-body technique that can help you rewire your energy system, reprogram your subconscious beliefs, clear your resistances to achieving your goals, and remove your old programming that is keeping you stuck. The benefits of Tapping include: reducing your stress, worries, procrastination, cravings, unhappiness, insecurities/self-doubt, unwanted feelings, and other self-sabotaging beliefs and behaviors. By identifying and removing your emotional blocks and disempowering beliefs in both your conscious mind and your subconscious mind you are able to change your inner reality which can then change your outer reality.

I believe in a holistic approach to mental health. This philosophy focuses on moving towards core values and learning to recognize behaviors that prevent us from seeking those values. I practice Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques, which use acceptance and mindfulness strategies together with commitment and behavior change strategies to increase psychological flexibility. We can use Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy to manage issues like anxiety, depression, and stress. Interpersonal psychotherapy and insight-oriented therapy are other treatment modalities that are helpful when dealing with social skills challenges. I also offer Walk & Talk Therapy. This style of therapy has been around for several years, and it is a big contrast to sitting on a couch talking about problems. More evidence is pointing to the connection between the mind and body. Because movement improves our physical health and mental clarity, this type of therapy is very effective for those people who feel stuck.

When we understand ourselves and our desires, we access our power. I help you learn what you want, and clear the obstacles out of your way. When the unconscious dictates our thoughts and behaviors, we are adrift in its hidden urges, fears, and conditioning. Getting to know ourselves brings these mysterious workings into the light, so that we can choose what we do with them. If you're feeling lost at sea, I can help you find your boat and compass. Once you're back at the helm, riding out the waves can be exhilarating! Gender and Sexual Expansion I know that in navigating the world as a queer person, it can be challenging to find the right fit in a therapist. Whether you identify as non-binary, trans, genderfluid or anywhere on the spectrum of non-heteronormativity, it's critical to talk with someone who gets it. When it's time to further explore a facet of your identity, sexuality or relationship, you can feel safe expressing yourself with me as you are without your therapist assigning your struggles to your lifestyle or identity. I counsel sex workers, individuals in polyamorous or other consensual non-monogamous relationships, and participants in kink or BDSM lifestyles. When you walk into my office, you can rest assured that you will be met with compassion and non-judgement.

In life, we all go through transitions and transformations, which sometimes prove to be difficult. These are the times we often need connection, support and acceptance. I am here to provide you with a safe place to untangle, to rediscover your true self, to heal and to simply be. I strive to create a warm and trusting environment in which you can feel comfortable to explore your stuckness, while finding your flow again. My job is to help you reconnect with yourself and life itself. I believe that every person has the resources inside of them to provide themselves with healing, love and self-acceptance. My commitment is to assist you in experiencing changed lives through understanding your inner resources better and finding balance. I would be honored to bear witness to the beauty of your transformation and healing. Nina Alenko Danhorn

Even in times like these, while anxiety is contagious, so is genuine connection and compassion. If you are struggling with stress, anxiety, PTSD, depression or spiritual growth--I would love the opportunity to talk to you about what a better tomorrow would look like. I use clinically-minded, cognitive behavioral tools to help implement positive change for deeper personal fulfillment, presence authenticity and joy by creating a therapeutic space that is non-judgmental, safe and adaptable to what you need. I use person-centered practices and can implement meditation, poetry, walking therapy and art therapy in session as well. I offer traditional talk and tele-therapy with practices based in: CBT, ACT, person-centered and mindfulness. I use research-based methods to provide treatment based in effectively proven methods. I use positive psychology throughout session and am happy to refer you to resources that help outside of session, whether that's a book, meditation, yoga, etc. Creating a compassionate, safe and non-judgmental space for personal growth and fulfillment is of utmost importance in my practice. I sometimes incorporate meditation, art therapy and mindfulness techniques in session (if you feel these techniques would be a good fit for you) to address anxiety, trauma and difficulties coping with major life transitions.

Hello! I offer counseling with the combination of genuine support and compassion, reliable therapeutic skill, and the opportunity for healing through creative expression. I provide guidance and an open space for artistic and verbal support for individuals who are ready to move forward in their journey of cultivating optimal health and wellness. Through thoughtful expression and insightful exploration, my clients will learn to nurture and grow reliable qualities within themselves to call upon for safety, security, health, and strength both presently and in the future. Many clients come to counseling and art therapy seeking emotional stability, skill-based counseling, support for challenging situations and behaviors, personal insight and healing, optimal holistic health, and personal growth. This is also a safe, productive space to explore and work through difficult experiences a person has gone through, or a challenging situation they currently face. Through skill, confidence and self-esteem building, as well as cultivating a positive self-concept, my clients can prepare themselves for the challenges they may encounter in their futures related to -Social pressures -Depression, anxiety, and mood challenges -Eating disorders and body image issues -Nourishing, meaningful relationships -Positive choice making -Healthy coping skills -Social interactions and expectations Viewing counseling as a tool for healing, growth, and preventative health allows individuals to gain the knowledge about healthy coping skills and behavioral modifications both before they encounter difficulties, and to utilize as skills for working through pre-existing struggles. Within this perspective the client will feel stronger about their personal strength and beliefs while feeling more able to cope healthfully with any challenges that may arise.

I am a creative therapist. With a Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting, and a Master's degree in Social Work, I often find myself bringing that creativity into my practice. I believe that each client's needs are unique, and I tailor my skills to your needs. I have had a broad range of clinical experience, specializing in cognitive behavioral, motivational interviewing, and EMDR therapy. I believe that my past experience with residential, day and outpatient treatment, managed classrooms and educational settings has given me a large arsenal of skills and abilities. Also, experience with multiple and varied populations has heightened my ability to see the underlying issues and assist my client's in recognizing and altering their current behavior to reach their goals. I was trained in EMDR at the beginning of 2009, and am now a certified with EMDRIA. I have had significant success with issues such as communication skills, anxiety and stress reduction, depression management and reduction, release of past traumatic memories (ie. abuse, serious accidents, witnessing horrific events, etc), relationship issues, parenting skills, behavior management, and grief and loss.

All of my clients--whether individuals or couples--share one commom theme in their experience: they feel stuck and wish not to be. They feel stuck in how they have always addressed the same problem and feel hopeless about things changing for the better. It may be a perpetual, limiting, yet hard to identify thought pattern that feeds upon the feelings and actions it generates. It may simply be a bad habit that no one has thought to challenge or dared to question. The stuckness may stem from a long standing circumstances in your past that you have never felt completely free from. Or it may be something completely new that has you overwhelmed. Whatever the case may be for you, I invite you to contact me to see if I might be a good fit to help you get unstuck.
