About Roads & Rivers

Roads & Rivers was founded by Jennifer Thorstad (LPC) in 2016, and has since grown into a flourishing therapy and counseling practice that helps families and individuals in the greater Denver area, find direction and hope.

The metaphors of the ‘road’ and the ‘river’ underpin the philosophy of our practice.

Winding Road Therapeutic Journey

“Every journey taken always includes the path not taken, the detour through hell, the crossroads of indecision and the long way home.”

―Shannon L. Alder

The ‘road’ is not only representative of your unique journey through life, but is also a place of meeting, and of connection.

At Roads & Rivers we aim to meet you, the weary life traveler, in ‘your moment’ (at a certain point on your road), to be fully present for you, and to journey alongside you for a while, so that you can find direction and healing.

Winding River in Green Field Therapy in Denver Colorado

“River is time in water; as it came, still so it flows, yet never is the same.”

― Barten Holyday

The ‘river’ is representative of the ebb and flow of life.

The river is constantly changing, but it also encapsulates a wellspring of hope to revive lost and weary life travelers. Sometimes you just need someone to show you the way. At Roads & Rivers we aim to help you find the anchor of hope within the river of your life.
