New Patients at A New Story Counseling in Denver, CO

Start a Better Chapter: Your Journey Begins at A New Story Counseling

Taking the first step toward mental wellness is a powerful decision, and at A New Story Counseling, we are honored to support you in that transition. Led by Brooke Zalis, our practice provides a safe, compassionate environment where you can explore your challenges and rewrite the narrative of your life. Whether you are seeking a fresh perspective on personal struggles or looking to strengthen your connection with others, our goal is to ensure your first visit feels welcoming, professional, and entirely focused on your unique needs.

The clinical foundation of our practice is built upon a diverse array of specialized services that address the complex layers of the human experience, ensuring that every individual, couple, or partner receives care that is scientifically grounded and personally tailored. Brooke Zalis and her team specialize in high-impact treatments such as anxiety therapy, which helps patients identify the root causes of their stress while developing practical tools for daily regulation. For those navigating the complexities of human connection, we provide comprehensive couples therapy and sex therapy, focusing on restoring intimacy, improving communication, and resolving long-standing conflicts that may be hindering a relationship’s growth. We also recognize that life is rarely static, offering dedicated life transitions counseling to support those experiencing the upheaval of career changes, relationship endings, or other major identity shifts. By integrating these various modalities, we ensure that our new patients have access to a holistic spectrum of care that addresses both the mind and the heart.

A unique and highly effective component of our clinical offering is EMDR therapy, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, which is a specialized approach designed to help patients process and heal from traumatic or distressing life experiences. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR focuses on the brain’s natural ability to heal, helping to neutralize the emotional charge of painful memories so they no longer dictate your present reactions. For our new patients who may have busy schedules or live outside the immediate Denver area, we are proud to offer online EMDR therapy, maintaining the same rigorous clinical standards and efficacy as our in-person sessions. This specialized service is complemented by our broader online therapy platform, which provides a flexible and secure way to access anxiety therapy or couples counseling from the comfort and privacy of your own home. We believe that accessibility is a cornerstone of effective healthcare, and our virtual options ensure that high-quality therapeutic support is available to you whenever and wherever you need it most.

As you prepare for your first session at A New Story Counseling, we want you to feel empowered and informed about every aspect of your care, from our clinical philosophy to the practicalities of insurance and scheduling. We provide a wealth of resources for our new patients, including a comprehensive library of wellness articles, frequently asked questions, and clear information regarding the various insurances we accept. We serve a wide geographic area, welcoming individuals from Denver CO, Lakewood CO, Englewood CO, Glendale CO, Aurora CO, and Edgewater CO to our conveniently located Speer Boulevard office. Our commitment to you extends beyond the therapy room; we strive to create a therapeutic community where you feel seen, heard, and deeply understood. By choosing A New Story Counseling, you are choosing a path of self-discovery and healing that is supported by clinical excellence and genuine human compassion. We look forward to helping you turn the page and begin the next chapter of your journey with confidence, clarity, and a renewed sense of hope for the future.
