Find a therapist in Colorado Springs, CO — covered by insurance

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 18+ years of experience as a trauma therapist serving active-duty and veterans, and first responders.

I've specialized in play therapy with both trauma and neurodivergent populations and have a decade of work as a state-approved domestic violence treatment provider.

This work has equipped me with a lens to identify symptoms of trauma at all ages and stages of development, as well as an understanding of communication and relationship dynamics in couples and families.

I have experience with somatic and sensory work that applies to self-regulation and conflict resolution. I am also licensed in the State of Colorado as a natural medicine clinical facilitator in the use of Psilocybin.

I have grown to specialize with ADHD, Autism, and other forms of neurodivergence, taking a trauma processing approach to release any shame or negative perceptions related to these experiences of the world. I find that these things can be such a gift if we can learn to support ourselves and develop systems tailored to our lifestyles. My approach aims to help you heal what is limiting you, develop the tools that fit for your unique experience, and re-connect with the essence of who you are.

"What matters more than what you know is how much you care" is a phrase I took with me from one of my professors in Grad School. I believe that statement embodies who I am and what I bring to the practice - lots of care! With that said, I have been in practice either working in both alternative and traditional high schools, as a school-based therapist in a facility school for students with special needs, and/or in the private setting since 2016. I have worked with a wide range of ages and populations, not just kids/teens but adults too! My experience includes helping those struggling with depression, anxiety, ADHD, divorce/parenting/blended families, grief/loss, sexual abuse and other traumas, autism, intellectual disabilities with co-occurring mental health diagnoses, immigration issues, and even college/career counseling. I really enjoy working with all ages! I was a double major at University of Northern Colorado, studying both School Counseling and Clinical Mental Health. I completed all of the coursework for both tracks and the School Counseling internship, graduating in May 2017.

I believe in utilizing a strengths-based approach to help my clients in becoming the best versions of themselves.

I currently offer individual counseling focused on trauma and co-occurring disorders, including substance abuse issues.

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with over 25 years of experience working in schools as a school psychologist. I have been married for 30 years and have three adult sons.

As a licensed clinical social worker, it is my honor to offer safety, support, and understanding as you bravely step into the exploration of a richer, more fulfilling life. I practice primarily Internal Family Systems to address life challenges with trauma, anxiety, depression, and grief.

Living with anxiety and depression can lead to feeling exhausted and joyless. I use several methods to treat those symptoms in adult women, teenagers, and children aged 12+. My goal is to help people learn to enjoy life again. Other focuses of mine are women going through parenting challenges and life transitions and college students and their life transitions, and insomnia. Sleep is so important and can affect mental health on a daily basis.

I am a licensed marriage and family counselor in Colorado. I have a bachelor's degree in Communication, a bachelor's degree in Psychology and a master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. I love working with couples and individuals struggling with relationship issues. I have extensive experience with high conflict couples and military families. I believe that most relationship struggles can be solved and am honored to guide my clients to resolution and peace in their relationships.

I am always honored when I am able to join my client's on their journey of discovery for a while

I'm Kathryn Konicek, founder and owner of Evolve Therapy & Consulting. I am dedicated to helping you cultivate the life you want—without judgment. Seriously, fuck judgment! Whether you're navigating intense life transitions, or recovering from trauma, I work to provide a safe, compassionate space where you can show up exactly as you are, with all the messy, real parts of your story.

I offer virtual or in-person therapy sessions in Castle Rock, Colorado. I know what it's like to struggle with depression, addiction, and narcissistic abuse. I became a therapist and an energy healer after going through my own "dark night of the soul." Many clients tell me that they relate to me because I have been though similar experiences and know what it's like to push through depression, and overcome addiction and trauma. My goal isn't to help you merely mask symptoms, but to help you navigate through them while healing the underlying roots, staying grounded, and discovering your most authentic self and a life of fulfillment and thriving.

I take a fresh, integrative approach to individualized psychotherapy, tailoring my treatment approach to each client's unique needs and goals. My work is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps clients better understand and regulate their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and reactions.

I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), helping clients develop greater acceptance of difficult emotions and circumstances that may be out of their control while taking meaningful action aligned with their personal values. With seven years of experience as a Group Facilitator and Individual Therapist in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I utilize evidence-based skills and mindfulness practices to help clients improve emotional regulation, increase self-awareness, and build resilience.
