Hello my name is Dr. Dave Matheson, PhD, LPC. I am an Licensed professional counselor in the state of Colorado.
It sounds like you are interested in creating some change in your life and counseling is a great place to start. Here is how I view counseling and the struggles we are up against.
The problems we struggle with seek to define and marginalize our identities as humans. The power that various problems seek to have in our lives can leave us feeling lost, helpless, and alone. Counseling can be a great place to begin to separate our identities from our struggles, where the problem does not get to define us as humans. My goal is to join you in this process and support the creation of a new identity, where the problem no longer gets to hold the mirror from which our own reflections are seen.
Hi, my name is Zach, and I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Denver Seminary’s CACREP accredited program. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado, and I work largely with LGBTQ+ individuals, specializing in religious trauma and spirituality, existential distress, eating disorders and body image, relationship issues, and grief and loss.
Hi and thanks for checking out my profile! I specialize in working with couples and individuals experiencing relationship issues. I also provide Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy. My education is in clinical mental health and I have a wide range of clinical experience. I focus on the emotional connection between couples and helping individuals build thriving relationships with themselves and others!
My goal is to provide you with a safe, emotional space where you will feel comfortable, relaxed and know that you are being heard. I want you to be able to express yourself freely without any fear of judgement. Healing takes place when you are able to be open, honest and vulnerable. Throughout my practice, it has been an honor to help facilitate extraordinary transformation in the lives of my clients. Believe me when I say that, “Anything is possible,” as I have witnessed my clients overcome trauma, grief, depression, anxiety and hardcore drug addiction.
Often, our feelings of shame, hurt and fear rob us of the opportunity to experience true joy and fulfillment in our lives. Do you find yourself running from these feelings or always fighting against them? Instead, I can help you embrace them and work through them. It is through this process of transformation where you learn to find acceptance, meaning
and purpose in your life. This leads to living with self-authenticity, and this is when you experience true joy and fulfillment. I look forward to being your catalyst for change. Together, we will take this journey and progress at your own pace. I encourage you to take the first step and make an appointment. Your life is worth it!
I am a licensed psychologist with over 33 years of experience. I strive to provide a compassionate, integrative approach to mental health, helping adults navigate life's challenges by honoring the whole person.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Boulder
Searching for therapists in Boulder starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Boulder therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and approach match your needs. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist focuses on methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Boulder is a smaller market, so local in-person options may be more limited depending on your schedule, neighborhood, and preferences. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Colorado. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can also show how a therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Boulder can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
