The Boulder Psychotherapy Institute (BPI) trains therapists and graduate students in Gestalt Therapy and Applied Existential Psychotherapy (AEP). AEP interlaces Gestalt and other experiential therapies with the insights of contemporary existential and psychodynamic approaches. Jungian and expressive arts orientations may be included in some workshops. Our faculty and staff also provide individual, couples and group therapy – and supervision.

We are a hub for therapist community building – and a center for referrals in the Boulder-Denver area.

We offer services to both local therapists and the public. Over six hundred therapists use our free Networking List. The public is invited to use Find a Local Therapist to search for information about therapists and therapy.

Hello.I am a licensed, experienced therapist with a calling for my work. My style is warm, direct and practical intermixed with a spiritual focus.I work with a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression and relationship. I have a special interest in choice, change and transition. Together, we will develop an action plan detailing specific steps to practice and experiment with along the way. We may try Brainspotting, a powerful new tool to resolve stuck issues and traumas. I have many ideas, tips and tools and look forward to hearing from you today.

Review of Betty Cannon's Sartre and Psychoanalysis

"Every once in a rare while a text comes along whose intellectual impact is such that it makes one want to shout: 'Please, whatever you do, READ THIS BOOK!' Betty Cannon's Sartre and Psychoanalysis is such a book... Her arguments and conclusions, as well as being stunningly original, shed light not only upon psychoanalytic practice, but (if implicitly) upon psychotherapeutic practice in general... I cannot praise this book too highly. For anyone interested in existential analysis, and most especially anyone practising such, Cannon's text is required reading. Thankfully, it is also pleasurable and eloquent reading, admirable for its clarity, authority and lack of academic pretension. In other words: a text destined to become a classic in the field."

—Ernesto Spinelli, author of Practising Existential Therapy: The Relational World and other influential books on existential psychology, in Existential Analysis, July–Sept. 1992, no. 3.
