You feel isolated, unseen, and disconnected from the relationships and people around you. And although from the outside your life is great, the truth is you're running out of steam. You support others all day but when it comes to you, there isn't much left. After reviewing every therapist's website within 50 miles and even trying out a few, you know it's not a good fit.
And fit is everything! Boundaries and professionalism are especially important to you and you do not want to have to worry about if your therapist has the same standards. Let me hold the space and the boundaries. I'm Dr. Irene Summers Temple and you can call me Irene. My pronouns are she/her/hers. As a Woman of Color, I understand the unique experience of navigating professional and sometimes personal spaces in which you are the only person like you.
I specialize in serving People of Color and am LGBTQ+ affirming. As a counseling psychologist (licensed in Colorado and South Dakota) I am trained in multicultural therapy and consultation for racial, spiritual, gender, and sexual identity development.

Services
I work with adults of all races, genders, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and spiritual identities.
My clients are therapists, therapists-in-training, educators, physical therapists, social workers, social change agents, personal trainers, massage therapists, and medical professionals.
The work we do together is in-depth and collaborative.
Who you are personally, professionally, and spiritually are inextricably linked.
In our work together, you learn to give yourself permission to do your own work.

At work, in your community, and sometimes in your own family people don't seem to understand or even see you for who you really are.
You find yourself going between worlds.
People expect you to be one way at work, another with your friends, and even with family, there's an expectation that you'll fit into yet another box.
Coaching may feel similar to therapy.
We do an in-depth exploration of where you are in life and what strengths and limitations have brought you to this point.
Coaching is different from therapy in that we do not focus on diagnosing, identifying, or alleviating psychiatric symptoms.

You are a therapist who takes your ethics very seriously.
Many counseling and psychology graduate programs are great, but they still don't address all of the unique identity groups and clinical concerns that reflect our society.
You don't want to do harm, but fear that you don't have the skills necessary to practice competently.
With clinical consultation, we can meet in-person or using video chat to discuss your clinical concerns about working with clients with diverse gender and sexual identities.

A New Client Intake session is required for all desiring individual and couples therapy.

An individual intake is require for each member of the couple prior to beginning couples therapy.
For every appointment after the intake, you are billed as a couple at the rate below.
I no longer accept insurance.
Many people choose not to use their insurance because insurance companies often require a lot of personal health information.
