Meet The Team
Steffi Butler, LMFT, CAST
Owner/ Psychotherapist / Clinical Supervisor
Often we find ourselves wondering why we do the things we do, why our relationships don't turn out the way we hope or how to change the way we feel. Healing from pain and hurt in our past can pave the way to a whole and full life. Besel van der Kolk says, “Neuroscience research shows that the only way we can change the way we feel is by becoming aware of our inner experience and learning to befriend what is going on inside ourselves.”
​
I enjoy having a wide variety of clients dealing with a range of issues. I see couples, indviiduals (men and women) as well as teens - typically 13+ years and older. I am trained in EMDR, IFS, and body work. I employ the Gottman method in couples work.
Research demonstrates spirituality is a key element to our whole healing. The integration of faith is a key part of what makes my style unique and effective.
Clients have remarked that they appreciate my direct approach and my relatability. I genuinely enjoy my clients and watching them heal and grow.

Andrew Hiemstra, LMFT
Psychotherapist
Whether you're an adult managing the stress of work or relationships, a teen navigating the trials of growing up, or a child trying to make sense of big emotions, life can be difficult! Everyone can use a helping hand sometimes and that's why I'm here. I've had the pleasure of working with children, their families, and individuals for over 10 years. Together we'll develop goals specific to your needs and identify individualized tools and strategies to help you achieve them. I employ system-based marriage and family theories such as DBT, Solution Focused Therapy, and Internal Family Systems. I offer a warm, non judgemental space where we can work together to tackle life's challenges.

Michelle MacIlvanie, LPC
Often we find ourselves in the journey of transition, loss, trauma, or relational wandering. We wonder how to find our way and how to discover who God has designed us to be. Healing the pain in our past and attentiveness to the present open the path to wholeness for ourselves and those we love.
“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.”
― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
With over a decade of experience across the lifespan, I enjoy the integration of modalites, including person-centered psychotherapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Internal Family Systems. I am happy to engage in Christian counseling for those who desire. I offer a warm, attentive approach.
Michelle is an Arizona native, who loves spending time her her husband and small children. Clients have appreciated Michelle's compassion and thoughtful insight. Michelle primarily sees adult individuals age 21 and older and couples.

LMHC Intern - Holly Currier (August Start Date)
Interns are student therapists who have completeld all of their clinical coursework and are working toward completing their client hours prior to licensure. They are closely supervised by Steffi, our owner and clinical supervisor. They have weekly case consultation sessions and some sessions are recorded and reviewed for traiing purposes. Interns allow us to provide clients with a less expensive option and still have the benefit of highly trained therapists.

The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination. –Carl Rogers
​
Life is a journey with some easy and some difficult to navigate paths that often feel isolating.
We are not meant to journey alone. We are designed for connection. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, or issues with decisions, transitions, navigating life, or feeling alone, it would be my joy to sojourn with you. My background as a registered nurse and unique life experiences have prepared me to be a compassionate, holistic, ethical professional counselor.
I work with individuals of all ages, integrating multiple theoretical models rooted in person-centered psychotherapy, with a mindset of curiosity, strengths, and the inherent ability to achieve goals and cultivate change. We may explore relationships, beliefs, thoughts, behaviors, and the unconscious. Autonomy and collaboration are extremely important to me in the therapeutic process. I will aim to create a safe, unbiased, empathetic, and encouraging environment in which to progress toward your goals.
I am willing to engage with faith and spirituality for those who desire and consent, as I believe its integration in the therapeutic space can elevate hope, resilience, and growth.
I am currently a master's intern student at Colorado Christian University. I have earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Metropolitan State University of Denver and an Associate of Science in Nursing from Hillsborough Community College.
We are so excited to have Holly on the team!
