Ana Paula Castro-Papa

Negative emotional patterns are what I help individuals, couples and families recognize and change. I am Ana Paula Castro-Papa, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Denver, Colorado. I have worked with addiction in various settings, and I also work with clients on challenges that are personal and relational.

I use a systemic approach, with attention to the family and relationship settings where unhealthy behaviors take shape, and I work with clients to build healthier patterns in their place. I am an emotionally focused therapist, trained in emotionally focused therapy (EFT), emotionally focused individual therapy (EFIT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Attachment theory guides my attention to deep feelings like fear, loneliness and hurt instead of everyday disagreements.

Sessions are compassionate and collaborative. I can help clients address past trauma that affects relationships with family and loved ones. I also provide parent training, reunification therapy and court-ordered family therapy.
