About Teal Flanigan, LCSW, LAC, SEP
I am originally from California, but have called Colorado (Denver) my home for the last fifteen years. Travel is a big part of my life and I often find myself abroad in other countries as well. I’m definitely a beach over mountains person but I do love having the mountains close by.
These days, when I’m not working, I’m often spending time with my new baby, my partner and our dog, Mochi. When I get a chance I still love playing in my garden, doing something in the kitchen, and spending time with friends and family.
I am the same person during session as I am outside of session; laid back, a little goofy, genuinely curious about others’ lives, and compassionate. I use she/her pronouns.
Therapy and Consultation
I provide therapy online to clients (located in Colorado, Indiana, Florida and Nevada) and in person (located in Denver, CO) as well as EMDR consultation (located anywhere) to other therapists who want to strengthen their therapeutic practices.
I have spent many years studying the body, our nervous system and how life events can impact our whole selves. Sometimes it can feel like life is challenging and overwhelming and maybe healing isn’t possible. We know that our bodies and nervous systems respond to help protect us in times of stress or trauma but sometimes the patterns that develop later seem unhelpful.
Healing is possible
Thankfully, our brains, bodies and nervous systems are designed to return to overall health. I can help provide a safe container and emotional space to find the way back towards balance and well-being within your whole system.
I primarily use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Somatic Experiencing (SE) in my practice. These “bottom up” approaches focus more on work with the body and nervous system to restore a sense of emotional wellness rather than “top down” approaches which focus more on changing thoughts and behaviors.
Find your way to healing
Whether you’re looking for therapy or consultation, I’d love to connect!
