ABOUT THE PRACTICE

Our Approach

Lumen Therapy helps couples, individuals and families improve their most important relationships, health and well-being. Our therapists each have a long standing commitment to excellence in private practice, research and other therapeutic settings.

We have created our practice around the belief that each person deserves a safe, caring place in which to heal and grow. We see our role as guides and facilitators who will help you embrace your emotional responses to life’s twists and turns as we empower you with tools and resources you can use throughout your life. While healing takes time, you will feel empowered and stronger with each step you take in your therapy journey.

For many people, COVID-19 has created additional pressure and stress in life. We are attuned to the shifts our clients have experienced and can help you develop healthier coping responses and strategies for moving forward.

At Lumen, you will find a culturally responsive, racially conscious, LGBQ+ and trans/non-binary affirming atmosphere. We meet you where you are, and we help you celebrate your unique gifts and strengths.

She earned her master’s degree in couples and family therapy from Regis University in Denver and is currently pursuing certification in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). With specialized training in both EFT and the Gottman Method, Jana excels in helping individuals, couples, and families navigate complex emotional landscapes and discover effective strategies for growth and connection.

Jana’s professional journey began during her undergraduate studies at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, where she was involved in Campus Connections — a transformative program providing integrated mental health services to at-risk youth in the juvenile justice system. Her commitment to empowering others continued as an AmeriCorps volunteer, where she offered academic and social-emotional support to inner-city youth. While living abroad as a teacher for students with developmental disabilities, Jana further broadened her cultural perspectives, which have helped shape her inclusive and empathetic approach to therapy.

Personally, Jana has also experienced the transformative power of therapy in her own life.

These insights significantly deepen her understanding and improve her capacity to meaningfully connect with her clients.

She values time spent with her family and friends and prioritizes fostering love and connection in her own relationships.

WHO WE ARE

Natasha Amiri

About Natasha

Born and raised on the west coast, I grew up surrounded by the natural beauty of California, spending weekends hiking, camping, and boogie-boarding with my Afghan-French family. After college, I met my wonderful partner, a Colorado native, and we’ve shared 15 amazing years together. Now living in Colorado, we enjoy exploring the Rocky Mountains, hiking, mountain biking, and photographing wildflowers, often accompanied by our beloved hound, Oakley.

My relationship with my partner has shaped my approach to life and therapy. Together, we focus on maintaining respect, adoration, and authenticity—values I bring into my work with couples. I’m passionate about helping others cultivate positive, compassionate interactions in their relationships, fostering understanding and reducing conflict.

My fascination with healthy relationships began early, influenced by role models who embodied compassionate communication and authenticity. This passion led me to study positive psychology, attachment theory, and cultural systems in my academic studies. I’ve always been drawn to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of change.

Growing up in a multicultural household, I learned to value diverse perspectives and the uniqueness of each individual. As a Couple and Family Therapist, I use a systemic, attachment-based, and Emotionally-Focused approach to help clients build stronger emotional connections. I’m dedicated to guiding couples through the process of breaking negative patterns and fostering a deeper, more fulfilling partnership.
