Are you feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you? Maybe anxiety or OCD is keeping you from living your life in the way that you would most enjoy. Or perhaps you are challenged by losses or life transitions which are difficult to face alone. Having a safe place to express your thoughts and feelings can make a difference.

I became a therapist after seeing the benefits of counseling and art therapy on both personal and professional levels. I’m a licensed professional counselor since 2011 and a board certified art therapist since 2022. I hold a Master’s degree in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology with a concentration in Art Therapy. In addition to my degree, also have significant training in a variety of evidence based treatments, including ERP, CPT, Motivational Interviewing, CAMS and ACT.

My experiences with hospice patients and caregivers, seniors, people in addiction recovery, people in crisis, people struggling with anxiety, trauma, life transitions, cultural and social justice concerns, have inspired me to offer therapy in private practice. In my spare time, I love to cook, sing, hike, and make art.

Autumn Kiser

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Fort Collins, CO


I am a licensed therapist and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional based in Colorado and Wyoming. My approach to therapy is Christian-based drawing from a range of person-centered and evidence‐informed therapeutic methods. At the heart of my work, I believe each individual has the capacity for change and growth. Even when life feels heavy, there is always a part of us that holds the gift of resilience, wisdom, and healing grace. My role is to help individuals reconnect with that part to create a grounded, supportive space where they can feel understood, regain a sense of control, and move toward the changes that matter most to them.

Jasmine Aranda

Therapist

Virtual • Colorado


I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside individuals as they navigate life’s challenges for more than 30 years, including 16 years as a Licensed Professional Counselor. I specialize in trauma, grief, anxiety, and addiction, and it has been an honor to support people through some of the most difficult and meaningful times in their lives.

I work with individuals who may feel overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or uncertain about how to move forward—often carrying pain, patterns, or experiences they have held for a long time. Together, we work to better understand what may be getting in the way, build on existing strengths, and create meaningful steps toward healing and change. My goal is to help clients move forward in a way that feels empowering, authentic, and aligned with who they are and the life they want to create.
