Close-Up Talk Radio Spotlights David Clift of Connexus Counseling Center

Denver, CO – Life isn’t always the dream we want it to be.  Situations and events occur that often are simply out of our control and beyond our power to resolve to our satisfaction. When faced with complex decisions and consequences, there are many roads to travel.   After some time, we may begin to wonder why we aren’t completely satisfied with our life, while others appear to be living the dream we were promised.  To some, the idea of reaching out to another seems ridiculous. For those feeling stuck in the sticky situations that life presents, there are counseling professionals like David Clift of Connexus Counseling Center who can truly help people find their way.

From adults to adolescents, individuals to couples: Psychotherapist David Clift has assisted people through a wide variety of obstacles and personal issues. His typical client struggles with overwhelming feelings of anxiety, depression, rage, grief, abandonment, or isolation and have drained their resources for knowing how to manage them all.  Many past or current situations can induce such a state for people, and David brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the varying difficulties people face.  

“I work with people who genuinely feel stuck. The series of patterns people go through over the course of their lifetime become all they know and they seem to fall back on these patterns that continue to bring the same negative results,” says Clift. “I offer a bottom up, whole-person approach to each individual situation and work with people to bring out more effective skills that will enable them to get out of the rut they’re in. Traditional therapeutic methods only treat an isolated part of the person.”

David’s impressive educational background includes a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from the University of Colorado and a post-Master’s certification in Clinical Sex Therapy, in addition to staying current with the latest research in body oriented approaches.  His methods center around establishing and maintaining new pathways in the brain that become the new response when faced with familiar challenges.  His fresh and cutting-edge approach to psychotherapy allows him to reach maximum and lasting results with each individual/couple that he works with. 

“I don’t maintain an expert status in the room. My clients are the experts on their own lives and what they need, yet can only define this in terms of what they have known.  This is why they stay stuck and why changes are likely to be temporary.  I work with people, provide them a safe and non-judgmental relationship, and introduce and encourage new strategies, tools, and perspectives.  This allows them to shift away from old and un-useful ways of thinking and feeling, and tap into new and liberating ways to approach their challenges.  This experience of safety and acceptance triggers their innate capacity and ability, many for the first time in their lives, to identify and face the roots of their struggles and find fresh ways to empower themselves.”

David is genuinely intrigued by each situation a client may share. He cherishes the experience and truly values the importance of his work with people. Acceptance is a key factor behind the work of therapy.  No matter what anyone has done to cope or react to their challenges, they have always been doing the best they can with the knowledge, skills, and resources available to them.  David offers his highly effective services to people of all ethnicities, backgrounds, and alternative lifestyles, including those who identify as homosexual and transgender.

David Clift of Connexus Counseling Center will be featured on Close-Up Talk Radio with host Jim Masters at www.blogtalkradio.com/closeuptalkradio on July 20th and August 24th. Both shows will air live at 12pm EDT on their respective dates.
