Grief counselors and therapists in Arvada, CO

Many of the people I work with are going through some kind of transition.

Sometimes that looks like anxiety that’s getting harder to manage, feeling stuck in the same patterns, or navigating changes in relationships, identity, or life direction. Other times it’s grief, stress, or a sense that something just isn’t working the way it used to.

You might find yourself overthinking, shutting down, or reacting in ways that don’t quite make sense, even to you. You may understand things logically, but still feel stuck emotionally.

My background is in clinical mental health counseling, and my work is grounded in approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I also have advanced training in working with relationship dynamics, which often show up even in individual therapy.

Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a journalist. That still shapes how I work today. I pay close attention, listen for patterns, and help you make sense of your story in a way that feels clear, grounded, and meaningful.

I am an experienced psychotherapist with a passion to help individuals in their healing journey, addressing issues such as depression, anxiety, and relationship difficulties. My area of expertise is trauma recovery. I strive to create safe environments for clients to explore their experiences while supporting them in building fulfilling lives. I earned my Master of Social Work from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2002 and have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2009.

Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, grief, or depression take hold. If you’re feeling stuck, exhausted, or unsure of how to move forward, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your feelings at your own pace.

Hi! I'm, Justin Landen. I am a licensed therapist in Colorado.

Difficulties and unresolved trauma from our past can influence our present in ways unknown to us. Our mind is very good at hiding our wounds from itself, and when this occurs, it can hijack our ability to experience life with curiosity, trust, and flexibility. Over the past 25 years of my practice in Colorado, I have found profound meaning in helping clients navigate these unseen hurdles. As a Licensed Professional Counselor who earned my degree from Naropa University, it is a true privilege to help adults, seniors, and couples establish a safe, empowering baseline for their care. I work with clients who are experiencing problems that are typically long-standing, repetitive, and significantly interfering with their life, specializing heavily in trauma, complex PTSD, dissociation, anxiety, and depression. Whether you are living with emotional pain, chronic shame, or disconnection from yourself, I look forward to walking alongside you on your path toward healing, helping you fully embody your true self.

I earned my doctorate degree in clinical psychology from the University of Denver and have been in private practice for over ten years. I consider it an honor to be in relationship with my clients and to help them better understand themselves and change their lives. I strive to celebrate and create a safe space for all aspects of your identity.

I have been in practice over 20 years. As a young man struggling with depression and anxiety, therapy saved my life. My lifes purpose is to pay back the favor and help those who continue to suffer. I have extensive experience with chronic pain, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and relationships.

I work with every client as a unique individual. Rather than looking at what is “wrong” with a client, I focus on the inherent health of the individual. I believe many behaviors, feelings, and styles were at one point a healthy and creative adjustment to a difficult situation. I assist people in developing awareness around this process and empower them to make new choices that may serve them better.
