Find your path with Forest Path Psychiatry

Life Is Too Short To Stay Lost


Trauma, chemical imbalances, toxic relationships, stress, grief, triggers (and so much more) can all hurt our mental health and balance. Our intended life path disappears beneath our feet, and we're suddenly only on a path of survival. Lost in our minds and circumstances, we do not thrive in our relationships, school, jobs, dreams.

Don’t spend another day setting your goals aside. Gain the confidence to do the things you want to do, as we support you in creating the freedom and independence you wish for…and need. Transform your darkest moments into your most powerful stories, because the world needs you. Contact us today, and start creating a life you love living.

Connection and Humor
Can Light the Darkest Spaces


"We believe that true healing transcends symptom management, and that connection and humor can become a beacon of light in the darkest of moments. You shouldn‘t have to hold parts of yourself back; it is possible to embrace the full spectrum of human experience – including the highs, the lows, and everything in between – with courage, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to living authentically."

A Message from Our Founder on Mental Health Treatment

"The ending of mental anguish and pain, the letting go of mental illness, the cloak you've known for so, so long...is an idea that can seem as difficult as the pain itself. Healing, creating, and finding mental safety are some of the hardest - but most deeply rewarding - activities of humanity. We will guide you through your healing and growth. We can do this together. You will discover your life is worth living - in radiant, vivid, color." -Holly Werstein, PMHNP-BC, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner in Colorado
