Adventure Based Healing, LLC offers sex therapy, couples therapy, and trauma-informed psychotherapy grounded in the belief that healing is an active, relational, and deeply human process. Just as adventure invites curiosity, courage, and growth beyond familiar terrain, therapy can help individuals and couples explore patterns, reconnect with their bodies and relationships, and move toward meaningful change. Mischa has won awards for her work from the Department of Veteran Affairs Office of Women's Health, VA Western Colorado and the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists. Adventure-based healing reflects the understanding that growth rarely happens by staying still. Healing often involves navigating uncertainty, building trust, and learning to respond differently when old patterns no longer serve us. In therapy, this may look like: • Exploring intimacy, desire, and sexual wellbeing with curiosity rather than shame • Strengthening emotional and physical connection in relationships • Processing trauma in ways that restore agency, safety, and embodiment • Learning how to stay present with discomfort while moving toward what matters In the future, offerings may expand to include individual and couples intensives that thoughtfully integrate nature and the outdoors as part of the therapeutic venue for healing. As many insurance companies do not cover sex therapy, Mischa works with individuals financially and offers sliding scale pricing for individuals and couples that are highly motivated to take their recovery to the next level. Discounts offered to Service Members, Veterans, and Public Servants.
