Lead Therapist

Natalia Aíza is a multicultural, multilingual counselor with a modern approach. Her therapeutic style is warm and welcoming, but also practical. Natalia believes that therapy should be time-limited and goal-oriented. She aims to empower her clients and encourages both children and adults to be active participants in their own therapy. Natalia works alongside her small therapy dog, Miszu.

Natalia has worked in Community Mental Health organizations in both China and the United States. She created a play therapy program at an orphanage in Shanghai.

Natalia is passionate about social justice and access to mental health care. She provided hospital-based therapy to children with serious medical conditions and offered therapy at a free clinic for the Latinx community in Westminster.

Currently, she offers therapy at Kairos Wellness Collective in Central Boulder.

Natalia believes in the healing power of exercise and the outdoors. Any appointment can be converted into a walking session in the trails around Boulder.

Natalia provides services in English, Spanish, Polish, and Mandarin.
