"I care deeply about the couples and adults I work with. I bring myself fully to every session, intending to be as real, human, and honest, as I can be. I encourage clients to show up similarly, to the extent possible, in therapy, in relationships, and in life."

- Diana Calvo

SERVICES

COUPLES THERAPY

Romantic relationships hold the potential to be both the most rewarding and the most troubling relationships in life. Couples seek counseling for a variety of reasons: wanting to start, wanting to end, a specific issue to work through, dynamics that have become untenable, or just wanting something more or better from the relationship. Couples counseling is an opportunity to explore the possibilities in your relationship.

90 Minutes - $200

DISCERNMENT COUNSELING

Discernment counseling is a specific form of short-term therapy catered to married couples considering divorce. When one partner wants to save the marriage and the other partner is undecided about how to move forward, discernment counseling can help. Couples are guided and supported through the process of making a clear decision on how to move forward.

ABOUT DIANA

Couples Therapist Denver Colorado

Diana Calvo (she/they) specializes in working with couples in crisis. She has experience working with relationships characterized by:

  • abuse, addiction, affairs, and chronic illness

  • poor communication, conflict, and little to no physical or emotional intimacy

  • past trauma that is largely unaddressed

  • serious consideration of separation, divorce, or ending

She has studied a variety of therapeutic modalities for working with couples, including Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT), Gottman, Imago, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Discernment Counseling, Internal Family Systems, Relational Life Therapy, and The Development Model from the Couples Institute.

 

Diana is well-equipped to support individual adults who are interested in addressing difficult childhood experiences that haunt them in adulthood. Common issues are low self-esteem, difficulty connecting with purpose and meaning, emotionally painful experiences in relationships, struggles with family members and romantic partners, feelings of emptiness, and symptoms of anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder. She is trained in Somatic Experiencing, a therapeutic modality used to process and release trauma energy from the body.

Diana's theoretical orientation to understanding the human experience is largely shaped by their study of family systems theory, attachment theory, and social justice theory. Their therapeutic approach is heavily influenced by Contemplative Psychotherapy and Buddhist Psychology. Additionally, Diana believes in the tremendous healing potential of being in and relating to the natural world.

Diana identifies as white, queer, monogamous, and a non-binary person. She can support interested clients to explore how identity, social location, power, and systems impact both their individual experience and their relationships. She has experience working with partners and individuals who identify as persons of color, queer, trans, non-binary, gay, lesbian, polyamorous, immigrant, and other marginalized identities.

Being a couples therapist is Diana’s second career. Previously, they worked in management consulting for 20 years in New York City. Their hobbies include easy cooking, coffee, and tending to a handful of indoor plants. They are divorced and in a committed non-married partnership.
