Effective Therapy | Congress Park Residents
Warm and supportive therapy for anxiety, trauma, couples concerns, sex therapy, and life transitions
In person therapy near Congress Park at my Speer Blvd office.
Online therapy for adults, individuals, and couples, throughout Colorado.
Congress Park has a calm, familiar feel to it, but even in a place that feels comfortable, life can bring moments that are hard to navigate. You might notice more stress than usual, old patterns showing up again, or a general sense that things feel off. When that happens, it can help to talk with someone who understands what you are working through and can offer steady support. If you live in or near Congress Park and want a space to slow down, reflect, and get grounded again, care is available close to home.
My name is Brooke Zalis, LPC , founder of A New Story Counseling. I work with individuals, and couples who want a space where they can feel understood, supported, and respected. My specialties include anxiety therapy, EMDR therapy, couples counseling, life transitions counseling, sex therapy, and online therapy across the state.
If you live in Congress Park and want thoughtful and effective therapy, my office on Speer Blvd is only a few minutes away.
Why Congress Park Residents Come to A New Story Counseling
Even though Congress Park has many strengths, it has limited therapy offices and very limited parking. Many people prefer to leave the neighborhood for therapy, especially when they want privacy or a specific specialty. These are the most common reasons people from Congress Park work with me.
A location that is very close to Congress Park
My office is located on Speer Blvd near the Cherry Creek Trail and only a short drive from Congress Park. You can reach the office easily from 6th Avenue, 8th Avenue, or Josephine Street. Most clients arrive from Congress Park in only three to six minutes.
More privacy than seeing a therapist in your own neighborhood
Congress Park has a close and familiar feel. Many people prefer to talk with a therapist in a nearby neighborhood where they are less likely to run into friends, coworkers, or other parents from their child’s school.
Easier parking compared to Congress Park
Congress Park streets are often full during the day. At A New Story Counseling you will find a small parking lot plus plentiful free street parking nearby. This makes therapy less stressful on busy days.
Specialties that are not always available within Congress Park
I offer anxiety therapy, EMDR trauma therapy, couples counseling, sex therapy, and support for difficult life transitions. Many people travel for these specialties when they want deeper work or more focused care.
A supportive and grounded therapy experience
Therapy works best when you can show up as yourself. My style is warm, collaborative, and steady. This allows you to talk about what feels heavy, explore old patterns, and learn skills to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
Flexible options for in person or online therapy
Many Congress Park clients come in person when they can and use online sessions when their schedule gets tight. Both formats offer the same level of support and connection.

About Congress Park and the Benefits of Support Nearby
Congress Park is known for its tree lined streets, older Denver homes, the community pool, and its easy access to the Botanic Gardens and Cheesman Park. It is a peaceful place to live, but many residents still find themselves overwhelmed by work, school, family responsibilities, or relationship stress.
Because therapy options inside the neighborhood are limited, many people choose to travel just a short distance for the support they want. My office on Speer Blvd is close enough to be convenient but far enough to offer privacy and a clear emotional boundary from your everyday routine.

You are welcome to come in person to my Speer Blvd office. If you prefer to stay home, need more flexibility, or want support from a private space, online therapy is available to adults, couples, and teens anywhere in Colorado.
