MEET LINDSEY

 

therapy for trauma, anxiety and depression

Hello and welcome! I’m Lindsey Gallop (she/her), a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado. I’m grateful our paths have crossed! In my practice, it is important to create a compassionate and authentic space where you can show up exactly as you are—no judgment, no pretense, just real, human connection. Once this foundation is set, we can safely explore and help you move through trauma, anxiety and depression together. As a trauma therapist, I specialize in helping teens and adults heal through past wounds, reconnect with their bodies, and build deeper, more meaningful relationships.

about me + my philosophy

As your therapist, my hope is for you to feel safe, seen, and accepted for exactly who you are and where you’re at in your therapy journey.

In our work, I hope we can create a supportive and empathic space committed to sharing, growing, crying and laughing together. I will celebrate your strength to feel it all and be a safe home base for you to do this work alongside.

Ultimately, I view therapy as a process of moving collaboratively towards healing and transformation, however you define that for yourself.

I believe that mental health is impacted greatly by the systems of oppression at play in our society. Together, I hope we can explore your intersecting identities and the impact that societal prejudices, stigmas, and privileges have had on your experience.

My work is rooted in the belief that our attachments/relationships with others are incredible vessels for healing - and often the cause of our pain - and that effective trauma therapy should focus on allowing your nervous system to fully process the memories, emotions, and sensations that are stuck in your body. As your therapist, I’ll be in your corner, honoring your body's capacity to feel while guiding your nervous system toward healing.

outside of the office,

you can expect to find me hiking, skiing, and spending time with the people I love. I love cuddling up and watching movies, playing card games, or trying a new restaurant. My hope for this upcoming year is that I get the chance to travel more and adopt a dog.

 
 
 
 

About You.

In the past:

  • You may have experienced significant trauma, including sexual trauma, childhood abuse or neglect, medical trauma, or relationship abuse. 

  • Emotions like anger, fear or sadness weren’t “okay” to feel - your parents either pulled away from you when you felt them or shamed you for feeling them 

  • You may have been conditioned to blame yourself for the things that happened to you

  • Your relationship with your parents felt unpredictable or chaotic 

Today, you might:

  • Feel unworthy of love

  • Use avoidance and humor as a way to cope 

  • Experience dissociation, especially during more intense moments, and struggle to stay present in your relationships

  • Have difficulty remembering some or most of your childhood

  • Feel a deep sense of shame about some parts of yourself or your past 

  • Attend to others’ needs before your own, also known as the “fawn response” 

  • Find yourself apologizing for having needs or wants, or not voicing them at all 

  • Feel a sense of hopelessness or stuckness in life

what it’s like to sit in session with me.

In our space together, I strive to join you in the healing process by collaboratively creating a safe and affirming container to do this work together. This looks like helping you uncover and access your own resilience, being right there alongside you as we move through the heavy together, and always making room to celebrate the good.

My style privileges the rawness of human connection, the innate wisdom of your emotions and nervous system, and is grounded in social justice principles.

My approach to therapy is relational, experiential, and trauma centered. This means that we will focus on the here-and-now experiences in therapy together and use them to access the deeper layers of your story, emotions, and the trauma stored in your body. Through this, our work will go further than talk therapy alone.

i view the therapy relationship as sacred, unique, and cultivated over time. I look forward to collaborating in this process together.

As a trauma therapist, I specialize in various trauma therapies, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), which are both evidence-based therapies that focus on helping your nervous system heal through trauma, not just understand it.
