Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Aurora, CO covered by United Healthcare

Hello! I specialize in supporting teenagers and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relational wounds and trauma. My goal is to provide a safe and welcoming space for healing and growth. I am passionate about meeting you where you are and empowering you to take the next step towards reaching your goals.

I am client-centered in my approach, and I believe that treatment should be tailored to the individual client's needs and goals. I have training in multiple theoretical approaches, and am dedicated to helping clients heal from past traumas, rebuild their confidence and self-worth, and find meaning in their lives. I believe that although seeking therapeutic help can be intimidating, when we work together to create meaningful change, we can achieve increased life satisfaction and happiness.

It is my purpose to guide others toward their innate capacity for growth and wholeness.

I work well with individuals ready to go deeper into understanding their own inner wold, healing from past experiences, and developing greater compassion for oneself and others.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, anxious, or struggling to find balance in your daily life? You do not have to navigate it alone. I provide compassionate, personalized mental health care in a supportive and judgment-free environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered.

We want to show the world that we have everything put together. Many times, we are struggling to stay afloat. Our quality of life is affected, and we find struggle in our relationships. Communication within ourselves and with others is compounded. Finding a non-judgmental and unbiased environment to process individually and/or together with partners and families can help to note the specific problem(s). By better understanding the problem, we are more successful in finding solutions. If we are informed, we are better in our decision-making. Therapy is a unique process, just like your life is unique.

If we have not contacted a professional for help, we are still doing some level of work. The work in the search for the next step. It is when we are lost in asking ourselves “How can I do better? How can I do better for myself and others?”. That’s when the next step of reaching out for help is needed. I am a therapist. I am human. I understand.

I am a Clinical Mental Health Therapist with over 16 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults and families in community mental health, educational and private practice settings. Prior to that, I spent 20 years in pastoral ministry. I completed my Masters in Counseling Psychology in 2008 from Northwestern Oklahoma State University, and soon after moved to Northwest New Mexico/Southwest Colorado. My professional experience includes: Administrator of a Residential Treatment Center, Clinical Administrator for Children's Behavioral Health, Student Assistance Coordinator for a school district, Visiting Professor at a School of Social Work, Private Practice, Outpatient Clinical Manager, Health Services Coordinator for a school district, and Integrated Behavioral Health Provider in a family medical practice setting. In addition to working with high risk/high needs children and adolescents, I work primarily with trauma as well as anxiety and depression. I also serve as a Certified First Responder Counselor.

My name is Lori Stalcar, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 17 years of experience working with individuals and families in various treatment settings, including online, inpatient, outpatient, residential, and institutional environments.

I graduated with my masters from Regis University in 2022. I have worked in inpatient, intensive outpatient and outpatient. I’ve worked with clients of all ages with different backgrounds, and particularly enjoy working with patients with OCD and anxiety disorders.

Together, we can work toward building resilience, enhancing your well-being, and achieving the goals that matter most to you.
