Top Holistic Therapist in Northern Colorado

Hi, I’m Yesim (pronounced Yeh-shim).

My name means Jade—a stone associated with balance, grounding, and protection. In many ways, that reflects the kind of space I aim to create with my clients.

I’m a second-generation Turkish American who grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan. After living and traveling in different states, I found my home in Colorado—where the mountains and nature continue to ground and restore me.

Taking care of myself matters to me, not just personally, but because it allows me to show up more fully in my work. When I’m not with clients, you’ll likely find me spending time with family, friends, and animals, or doing things that bring me back to myself—reading, gardening, cooking, yoga, climbing, hiking, or traveling. I tend to value both depth and play—quiet, grounding moments just as much as spontaneity, connection, and a good laugh.

Becoming a therapist didn’t feel like a single decision—it felt like a natural unfolding.

I’ve always been drawn to people’s inner worlds and the depth of the human experience. As a child, I was often told I was “too sensitive.” Over time, I’ve come to understand that sensitivity as one of my greatest strengths.

That part of me shows up in the therapy room—it allows me to attune, notice what isn’t being said, and meet clients with genuine care and compassion.

We all experience pain. And at the same time, I’m continually struck by people’s capacity to grow, heal, and make meaning out of what they’ve been through.

Over the years, that curiosity and care have shaped the way I practice and the work I’m most drawn to today.
