Lindsey Rutledge(She/Her/Hers)

Dr. Lindsey Rutledge is a Psychiatrist and Jungian Analyst located in Ken Caryl, CO. Dr. Rutledge has extensive experience helping people work through the challenges created by past trauma. These challenges may present as self-doubt, intense rumination, difficulty making decisions, or an inability to trust others. She also works with clients who have dissociative disorders and struggle to feel connected to themselves and others. Dr. Rutledge enjoys bringing a sense of curiosity and hope into each session, and she maintains a nonjudgmental and empathetic style. She encourages clients to speak openly about their thoughts and feelings, even when this is difficult. Clients discuss the meanings behind their dreams and draw meaning from their inner worlds. She also teaches clients how to practice breathwork and grounding exercises, which are helpful tools to use in moments of distress. Many clients discover a greater meaning their lives after working with Dr. Rutledge, and develop coping strategies to employ when necessary. When appropriate, Dr. Rutledge prescribes medication that can diminish the impact of mental health symptoms. Dr. Rutledge earned an MD from Creighton University School of Medicine and completed a residency at Montefiore Medical Center. She has also completed additional training in trauma and dissociative disorders at Sheppard Pratt, a psychiatric hospital outside of Baltimore. Most recently, she completed Jungian Analytic Training with the C. G. Jung Institute of Colorado, which is accredited by the International Association of Analytical Psychology. She runs a biweekly dream group, where clients can explore their own unconscious and the deep connections that develop when a group of people share this work.
