At its best, therapy isn’t about fixing what’s broken; it’s about uncovering what’s always been whole.

I’m Rivers Fleming, and I’m a therapist based in Colorado. My work is rooted in the belief that you already carry wisdom—even if it’s buried under years of shame, trauma, or just surviving in a world that doesn’t always know what to do with sensitive, queer, or questioning people. In the tradition of contemplative psychotherapy, this idea is called brilliant sanity—your innate wholeness is never lost, just obscured.

My approach blends a contemplative foundation with existential and psychodynamic work—the kind of therapy that gets beneath the surface. We explore patterns, wounds, and longings not just to feel better, but to understand why these things exist in the first place. This isn’t about slapping on a coping skill—it’s about curiosity, meaning, and liberation.

I’m a queer therapist with personal and clinical experience in the messy, radiant, beautiful complexity of LGBTQ+ life. I work with folks who are navigating identity, grief, trauma, life transitions, spiritual disorientation, and/or the aftershocks of psychedelic experiences that cracked something open.

If you’re craving a space where you don’t have to explain the basics of who you are, and where you're allowed to ask the big, weird questions—I’m here.

I currently offer online therapy for adults across Colorado, including Denver, Colorado Springs, the Front Range, Western Slope, and rural areas. Whether you're seeking a queer-affirming therapist, support for grief or life transitions, or a space to explore meaning and identity, we can meet from wherever you are—physically and emotionally.
