At New Growth, therapy is more than talk — it’s a return to your natural rhythm. Just as the seasons shift, roots reach deep, and branches stretch quietly towards the sun, we believe growth happens when you’re given the right conditions: safety, compassion, and space to breathe. We offer individual counseling grounded in clinical wisdom and a deep respect for the ways we grow when we listen inward. Rooted in authenticity and guided by curiosity, our work together invites you to slow down, tune in, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that may have been pushed aside. You don’t need to have everything figured out. You just need a place to begin. Together, we’ll untangle what feels heavy, explore what’s been holding you back, and nurture what’s been waiting to emerge. Let’s find the path forward together — one that feels steady, grounded, and uniquely yours.

I am so happy you are here! I am dually licensed as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Substance Abuse Counselor (SAC) and have been practicing as a therapist since 2021. Clients often come to me when they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in patterns they want to change but haven’t been able to shift on their own. My role is to help you develop a deeper understanding of your inner self so you can better recognize patterns, emotions, and needs that may be driving your thoughts and behaviors. From that place of awareness, we focus on self-growth and healing by building insight, emotional regulation skills, and healthier ways of coping.

Karmen Seltz is a psychotherapist who believes that the therapeutic relationship can build the foundation to make change. Therapy can help you make complicated decisions simpler and reinforce your successes. Often, it is a matter of helping you unlock the solution that is waiting inside you. Many successful people struggle with doing everything “perfectly,” and it can be exhausting. Therapy offers an opportunity to build self-care habits and learn new ways to cope, and taking this time for yourself will have a positive effect on your relationships as well. Karmen works with adults, couples, and families who are struggling with mood disorders, trauma, and substance use disorders. I have years of experience helping people make changes in their lives. I look forward to working together.

The students I work best with are often balancing a lot at once. They may be trying to keep up with classes, work, family responsibilities, relationships, or uncertainty about their future while also managing stress, anxiety, burnout, or self-doubt. Many of the students I see are high-achieving and hardworking, but underneath the surface they feel overwhelmed, exhausted, stuck, or like they're carrying more than other people realize. Some are adjusting to college life, navigating major life transitions, or trying to figure out who they are and what they want for themselves. You do not need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, academic stress, confidence, or simply feeling lost, therapy can provide a supportive space to better understand yourself and develop tools to move forward. My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free environment where you can be yourself, explore what's getting in the way, and build the skills and confidence needed to thrive both in college and beyond.

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with more than 15 years of experience in community mental health. I have worked across a wide range of settings, including outpatient therapy, crisis services, and intensive community programs, and have supported people through some of the most difficult moments of their lives. In addition to providing therapy, I have supervised clinical teams and led mental health programs, giving me a broad perspective on what truly helps people heal. I work with adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. I provide LGBTQ+ affirming care and am committed to creating a space where clients of all identities feel respected, understood, and safe to be themselves. My style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I believe therapy should feel like a steady place where you can be honest about what you’re going through—without judgment or pressure to be anything other than yourself. I focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship and helping clients develop practical tools while also making space for deeper healing and self-understanding.

I take a holistic approach to well-being, recognizing the deep connection between physical, emotional, and mental health. Whether you’re facing stress, anxiety, life transitions, health concerns, or simply feeling stuck, I will meet you where you are.

I also see clients in person in Broomfield, CO. I specialize in anxiety, depression, life and school stress, self-esteem issues, and college transition concerns. I am passionate about supporting college students through the unique challenges they face. I believe in creating a safe, non-judgmental space where students can explore their feelings, build resilience, and develop the tools they need to thrive academically and personally. I’m here to offer guidance and support, whether you're dealing with academic pressure, personal struggles, or just looking for someone to talk to. I look forward to working with you and helping you find the balance you need to succeed.

The students and young adults I work with are often at a crossroads in their lives. They may be questioning who they are, where they belong, what they want for their future, or how to move forward after a difficult experience. Some are navigating trauma, identity exploration, relationship challenges, or major life transitions, while others simply feel stuck and want to better understand themselves. Through WellQor, I provide convenient online therapy for students and young adults, and WellQor accepts most major insurance plans to help make mental health care more accessible. I believe therapy can be a place to step back from the pressure of daily life, gain perspective, and reconnect with what matters most to you. My style is supportive, honest, and collaborative. I will listen without judgment, but I also believe growth often comes from being willing to look at patterns, beliefs, and experiences that may be holding you back. Together, we can explore your story, identify what is getting in the way of the life you want, and work toward creating a future that feels more authentic and fulfilling. If you are someone who is curious about yourself, open to growth, and looking for a therapist who will both support and challenge you along the way, we may be a good fit.

Many of the students I work with are in a season of growth, change, or self-discovery. They may be questioning their next steps, struggling with confidence, navigating relationship challenges, or feeling pressure to have everything figured out. Some come to therapy because they're feeling anxious or overwhelmed, while others simply want a space to better understand themselves and build a stronger sense of direction. Through WellQor, I provide online therapy that fits into a busy student lifestyle, and WellQor accepts most major insurance plans to help make care more accessible. I enjoy working with students who are ready to invest in themselves, explore patterns that may be holding them back, and develop tools to navigate life's challenges with greater confidence. I am especially passionate about supporting women, individuals facing life transitions, and those working through self-esteem concerns. My approach is warm, flexible, and collaborative. Rather than focusing only on what's wrong, I help clients recognize their strengths, build self-awareness, and create meaningful changes that align with their values and goals. If you're looking for a supportive, nonjudgmental space to grow, heal, and gain confidence in yourself, I'd be honored to be part of that journey.

Hi, I'm Alexandria! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Wisconsin, and I work with people of all ages who are facing life's challenges. Whether it's anxiety, depression, grief, or just feeling overwhelmed, I'm here to help you feel supported and understood. I'm especially drawn to helping people through big life transitions, because I know firsthand how much change can affect you. In first grade, my teacher described me with one word: thoughtful. That has stuck with me ever since. My care for people and natural empathy have shown up in every job I've had, and during the pandemic I knew it was time to fully commit to a career helping others. What I love most about being a therapist is the chance to advocate for and support people. My approach is built on compassion, collaboration, and respect for your unique story. I'll truly listen and stay with you until you feel ready to face things with confidence. Asking for help is a strength, not a weakness, and I'd be honored to work alongside you. I look forward to meeting you! Alexandria Scheer, LCSW

Hi, my name is Amy and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's in Social Work from the University of Wisconsin in Milwaukee. I started out as a medical social worker, so I understand how health conditions can affect both the body and the mind. I am trained in Grief and Loss, Trauma Informed Care, EMDR, Reiki, and Mindfulness, and over my six years with WellQor I have grown to love working with seniors and mature adults. I have been a helper my whole life, so becoming a therapist felt like a natural step. I believe people are generally good and that we are all doing the best we can with what we have been given, and I bring that mindset into every session. My style is eclectic, drawing on person centered and strength based work, solution focused therapy, EMDR, and cognitive behavioral therapy. I keep your needs, goals, and quality of life at the center of our work. As your therapist, I promise to listen, support, encourage, and walk with you through whatever comes, especially through big life changes and shifts in health.

I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for close to ten years, and I help teens, young adults, older adults, couples, and families work through anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief, and substance use. You do not have to be in crisis to begin therapy. Choosing to reach out simply means you have decided to invest in becoming the healthiest version of yourself, and I would be glad to support you in that. My style is warm, supportive, and free of judgment. I draw on cognitive behavioral therapy, DBT, mindfulness, and solution focused and trauma informed approaches, and I shape our work around what fits you. For clients who want it, I also offer faith based and Christian counseling. On your good days and your hard days, I will be a steady presence, helping you process what you are facing and find a way forward. I see clients through WellQor, where I provide therapy entirely online, so you can meet with me from wherever feels comfortable. If you would like to begin working together, visit the WellQor website and fill out the Get Started form. A patient liaison will then text you with the next steps and help get you on my schedule. I look forward to meeting you.

Life isn’t what you expected. Something happened. Something happened that you never imagined would happen to YOU and it threw all of your life plans off course. Or maybe you look in the mirror today and just don’t recognize the person you see. Either way, your life has taken a turn and you’re in territory you never prepared for, never anticipated. You feel lost, scared, and alone. Guess what? You’re not. I can help you process the unexpected, regain control of yourself, and move forward to create life-altering change and establish a reality that is probably better than you can visualize right now. All you have to do is reach out. Together we'll identify what isn't working for you anymore (maybe it never has). We’ll direct attention to the solutions - working together to create a treatment plan, a way forward, using a combination of evidence-based practices. You deserve specialized care. I can provide that along with a caring, non-judgmental, safe space to explore and grow. I provide video psychotherapy to people in CA and WI. Want a free 10 minute phone consultation? Please call or email today to schedule!
