You've built a life that looks like success. So why does it still feel like something's missing?

Therapy for high-achieving adults and couples navigating ADHD, anxiety, OCD, and relationship stress

In-person in Greenwood Village & Denver, CO, and online across Colorado, Texas, Arkansas, and Illinois.

Who We Are


You’re driven, capable, and accomplish more in a day than most people do all week. You’ve checked the boxes—education, career, relationships, routines. Yet there’s a persistent hum of overwhelm.

You might feel behind, not quite enough, or like you’re unraveling beneath a very polished surface.

This isn’t a character flaw. It’s what anxiety, stress, burnout, ADHD, and unresolved relationship stress often look like in high-performing adults.

At Nix Baker Wellness, we specialize in helping individuals and couples understand the patterns keeping them stuck—so they can feel more grounded, connected, and clear about what to do next.

Nix Baker Wellness and Therapy provides high-quality therapy that respects your intelligence—and actually works at your level.

We offer therapy in-person in Greenwood Village & Denver, CO and online across Colorado, Texas, Arkansas, and Illinois.

Our Services


ADHD Therapy for High-Achieving Adults

In-person in Greenwood Village, CO and online

Many high-achieving adults with ADHD look “successful” on the outside while feeling chronically overwhelmed, exhausted, or behind on the inside. You may be intelligent, capable, and driven—yet still struggling with focus, follow-through, emotional regulation, or burnout.

ADHD therapy isn’t about fixing you. It’s about understanding how your brain works and learning strategies that actually fit your life.

In therapy, we focus on:

  • Adult ADHD symptoms that often go unnoticed or misdiagnosed

  • Executive functioning challenges like time management, organization, and procrastination

  • Emotional overwhelm, shame, and self-criticism common in high performers

  • Co-occurring anxiety or relationship stress

Anxiety Therapy for Professionals

In-Person in the Denver Tech Center and online

Anxiety in high-achieving adults often shows up as overthinking, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or feeling like you can never fully relax. You may be successful in your career but constantly on edge, mentally exhausted, or afraid of slowing down.

Anxiety therapy helps you move out of constant “high alert” mode and into a steadier, more grounded way of living—without losing your drive or ambition.

Our work may include:

  • Managing chronic stress and burnout

  • Reducing rumination, worry, and performance anxiety

  • Untangling anxiety from ADHD symptoms

  • Learning tools to calm your nervous system—not just your thoughts

OCD & ERP Therapy

In-Person in Greenwood Village & Denver, CO

Telehealth available in CO, IL, TX, & AR

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) in high-achieving adults rarely looks like the stereotype. OCD in high-performing adults and teens looks more like:

  • Intrusive thoughts you can't turn off

  • Rituals that eat hours of your day

  • Certainty that never quite arrives, no matter how much you check

  • Research to reassure yourself

  • Perfectionism

  • Mental rituals that are hard to turn off

You've probably been managing it alone for years. Maybe you didn't even know it was OCD.

Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is the gold-standard, evidence-based treatment for OCD — and it's fundamentally different from talk therapy. It works by breaking the cycle that keeps OCD in charge

Common OCD presentations we treat:

  • Perfectionism and Performance OCD

    • The need to do things "just right" — redoing work, over-preparing, never feeling finished.

  • Intrusive Thoughts and Harm OCD

    • Disturbing thoughts that horrify you, followed by guilt and shame for having them.

  • Relationship OCD (ROCD)

    • Relentless doubt about your partner, your feelings, or whether your relationship is "right."

  • Health Anxiety OCD

    • Persistent fear of illness that reassurance — from doctors, Google, or anyone else — never fully quiets.

  • Pure O

    • Primarily mental obsessions with no obvious external rituals — one of the most commonly missed OCD presentations.

  • Food Allergy OCD

    • When legitimate allergy awareness crosses into OCD territory, including hypervigilance, avoidance, and rituals that expand far beyond what safety actually requires.

  • Emetophobia (Fear of Vomiting)

    • A specific OCD presentation that goes far beyond ordinary disgust. This is the fear of vomiting, seeing others vomit, or encountering vomit. The fear leads to compulsive behaviors such as restrictive eating, social avoidance, and a life increasingly organized around one fear.

Couples Therapy and Marriage Counseling

In-person in Greenwood Village, CO and Online in CO, IL, TX, & AR

Couples often seek therapy when communication breaks down, trust is damaged, or the relationship feels emotionally unsafe. For high-functioning couples, this can be especially painful—everything may look “fine” from the outside while, behind closed doors, they feel deeply disconnected. Nix Baker Wellness and Therapy specializes in:

  • Infidelity

  • Betrayal

  • Communication

  • Reconnection

Couples therapy offers a structured, supported space to slow things down, understand what’s really happening, and decide how to move forward

Discernment Counseling for Couples deciding whether to stay together or separate

In-person in Greenwood Village & Denver, CO and Online in CO, IL, TX, & AR

Are you or your partner unsure whether to stay or go? When one partner is leaning out of the relationship and the other is unsure—or still fighting—traditional couples therapy may not feel like the right fit. Discernment counseling is designed for couples facing this crossroads.

Rather than trying to “fix” the relationship, discernment counseling helps you gain clarity and confidence about your next step.

Discernment counseling helps couples:

  • Slow down impulsive decisions

  • Understand how the relationship reached this point

  • Explore whether to pursue reconciliation, separation, or divorce

  • Make thoughtful decisions with less regret and resentment

This service is especially helpful for high-achieving couples who value intentionality, clarity, and emotional responsibility.

Betrayal Recovery Therapy

In-person in Greenwood Village & Denver, CO and Online in CO, IL, TX, & AR

Infidelity and betrayal don't just damage a relationship — they destabilize your entire sense of reality. You start questioning your own perception, your judgment, and everything you thought you knew about the person you built your life with.

Betrayal trauma is real, clinically documented, and not something you can simply decide to move past on a timeline that makes sense to anyone around you. It requires a specific kind of support — not generic couples counseling, and not pressure to forgive before you're ready.

Betrayal recovery therapy at Nix Baker Wellness is designed for individuals processing the aftermath of infidelity and couples deciding whether and how to rebuild. We work at a pace that honors the weight of what happened — and helps you make your next decision from a clear, grounded place rather than a reactive one.

Work in this area may include:

  • Stabilizing your nervous system so you can think clearly and function

  • Making sense of what happened without excusing it

  • Deciding what you actually want — independent of pressure or guilt

  • Rebuilding trust, or rebuilding yourself, depending on where this leads

About Brittany Baker, LCSW

A smiling woman with blonde hair and green eyes, wearing a black sleeveless top, sitting on a yellow chair in a brightly lit room with a lamp and plant in the background.

I'm Brittany Baker, LCSW-S — a licensed clinical social worker with 14 years of experience specializing in anxiety, ADHD, OCD, and relationship crisis work.

I work with high-achieving adults and couples who are used to handling things on their own—but have reached a point where that’s no longer working. Many of my clients are people who are used to being the most capable person in the room and still can't figure out why they feel so stuck. 

What therapy with me can help with:

  • ADHD in adults and teens

  • Anxiety and chronic stress

  • Perfectionism

  • OCD and intrusive thoughts

  • Relationship conflict and disconnection

  • Infidelity and betrayal recovery

  • Communication challenges

  • Deciding whether to stay or leave a relationship

My approach to therapy is direct, practical, deeply relational, and grounded in understanding how anxiety, ADHD, and relationship dynamics intersect with high-pressure lives. I’ll work hard with you, tell you the truth, collaborate with you, and respect your intelligence and lived experience.

Therapy here isn't about starting over. It's about finally understanding yourself clearly enough to move forward.

You don't have to have it all figured out to start.

If you've been waiting until things get bad enough, or until you have more time, or until you're sure therapy will actually help — this is the sign to stop waiting.
