About Melissa Raddatz
About Aaron Eigler
Relationship and Family Therapy Clinical Intern
Nurturing relationships are essential to our survival. And, they require work. That's where I come in! Whether you're in a relationship or single, deep connection is at the foundation of a meaningful life. Let's collaborate to design a life you can truly feel proud of. Whatever your individual or relational issue is (communication, sex, anxiety/depression, stressful life events, etc) they're all related at the end of the day. I work with monogamous and polyamorous/CNM relationships, and I specialize in working with men and intimacy-related issues. I have couples therapy training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and The Gottman Method.
I want my client's true selves to show; the silly, the wild, the tame, the scary, all of it. Walls come down when we feel free to be ourselves. I aim to meet you where you are while tailoring therapy to your specific needs, utilizing various techniques such as experiential exercises, mindfulness practices, and guided exploration of core beliefs and values. I'm excited to work with you to create stronger, happier, and more vibrant relationships full of pleasure and meaning.

About Francine Bejarano
Relationship and Family Therapy Clinical Intern
For as long as I can remember I have wanted to be a person for others to lean on when they are going through a difficult time. I believe that giving folks a safe space to be vulnerable in sharing their experiences can be empowering and an opportunity to foster growth.
My passion is working with couples, helping them to reconnect, increase intimacy, learn about the wounds that were caused during early childhood, and creating a safe space with their significant other to share within. I currently practice from an Emotionally Focused perspective grounded in Attachment theory which posits that early childhood experiences and the messages we received greatly impact our relationships as adults.
I am in the process of completing a master's degree in counseling with a focus on couples and family therapy at the University of Colorado-Denver with an anticipated graduation date of summer 2023. Working towards EFT certification and having completed the Externship in 2022 and starting Core Skills in the summer of 2023.
Let me help you reconnect with your loved one and strengthen the bond you worked so hard to create over time.

It is so important for you and your partner to truly understand each other on a deeper level.
