Lucia Cordeiro Drever is a psychotherapist working primarily with couples and psychedelic-assisted therapy in Longmont, CO. Her studies at Naropa University provided her with an expansive ability to be with people in their profound experiences. Before therapy she spent 14 years as a Yoga therapist and teacher trainer, traveling to India annually. She is now pursuing a PhD in Clinical Sexology, is a TEDx speaker and is writing a book on sexuality. Lucia's work with couples mainly involves helping partners understand one another and take responsibility in order to find a safe and fulfilling partnership. Her work with psychedelics helps people access deep parts of themselves that were previously unavailable.

I work with children, adolescents, and families to provide effective techniques for parents and their anxious, challenging, moody children. Studies show that there are certain practices that work to facilitate improvement with children and families. I use these evidence-based treatments, meaning my work is informed by what the science says. Between sessions I ask clients to notice patterns or practice new skills in order to help them accomplish their goals in a timely manner. Throughout treatment, the client and I evaluate the effectiveness of therapy and their satisfaction with treatment to help clients get the results they want.

My areas of specialty include behavior therapy and CBT in the treatment of ADHD, acting out behaviors in children, and anxiety disorders across the lifespan. My website is www.Parentingmadepleasant.com

I specialize in grief and anticipatory grief work with children and families, often in the context of medical complexities that persist as chronic conditions, sometimes moving towards end of life. I have experience in both adult and pediatric Palliative Care and Hospice environments which inform my practice. I also enjoy work with children and families going through adjustment periods or life transitions. Defining what quality of life means and how to get there is key in my work with clients.

I am a licensed psychologist with 30 years experience in Aurora and Denver. Specialities: Anxiety, Depression, substance abuse, couples counseling, Employee Assistance program. Psychological testing. special interest in Veterans issues.
