I’m really glad you’re here.

Many of the people I work with are used to being capable, thoughtful, and strong for others, but inside, something feels off. You might be dealing with anxiety, depression, burnout, or a sense that you’ve lost connection with yourself. Sometimes it’s not just about what’s happening right now, but patterns that have been quietly shaping your life for a long time.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Colorado, with over 20 years experience working across a wide range of settings, including community mental health, mobile crisis and co-response, skilled nursing, public health, and critical access hospitals. This background allows me to meet you where you are, whether you’re navigating everyday stress or something more complex, to bring both depth and compassion to our work.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, life transitions (career, relationships, health, identity shifts), and the lingering impact of stress or past experiences.

As a licensed clinical social worker with a master’s degree from The National Catholic School of Social Services, I bring extensive experience from my work in university-based teaching hospitals and ambulatory care clinics. My practice focuses on supporting adults and their caregivers through challenges such as anxiety, depression, complex medical conditions (acute and chronic), medical trauma, loss, grief, and significant life transitions.

I have a specialization in guiding individuals and their caregivers through the cancer journey, encompassing every phase—from diagnosis and treatment to recovery, survivorship, and end-of-life care. I have also worked extensively with patients undergoing stem cell transplants, CAR-T and immunotherapy.

My training and experience also includes helping individuals manage disorders of the brain-gut interaction. Support, education and strategies address the connection between the mind and gastrointestinal health. Recognizing that everyday stressors can greatly affect your well-being, I adapt my clinical approach to suit a variety of life situations, always tailoring care to meet your unique needs.

Hi! I'm Molly. I love being a therapist and feel so honored to be trusted with the tender work of healing. I'm a licensed clinical social worker, which basically just means that I'm a therapist who looks at both the person and their relationship with their larger environment. I've worked with ages 1-70+, diagnoses across the board, and in a variety of settings - a psychiatric hospital, medical detox for substance use, community mental health, intensive outpatient, residential, and in-home. Maybe you've been in some of those settings yourself! Wherever your path has taken you, I'm happy to walk alongside you in this present chapter.

Hi There! My name is Jess, and I am so glad you have stopped by my page. I have over 8 years of experience specializing in Anxiety, Trauma, Relationships, Mood Disorders, and Women's Issues.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Colorado with a lifelong passion for teaching and healing. My own journey through trauma and growth deepened my calling to support others. By blending professional expertise with personal insight, I offer a grounded, compassionate space where clients feel understood, supported, and empowered in their healing.

I work with individuals and couples from a variety of backgrounds and life experiences. Alongside my professional growth, I’ve continued my own journey of authenticity and self-love — deepening my understanding of what true healing requires. This led me to create Heartfelt Holistic Healing, a practice that looks beyond symptoms to the root of what’s really going on. Together, we move toward lasting, meaningful healing from the inside out.

Since seeing how the community health system hasn't worked for many in the Southwest, I want therapy to be accessible for my clients. So, I can come to you or my office or virtually! I am 1 of only a couple Spanish-speaking therapist in our region, so I work a lot with the immigrant community. Although I am not Latine, I have worked alongside the Latine community for over 10 years and it is a cultural home for me. Whether I am speaking English or Spanish, my personality still comes through. I also work in homelessness, so I'm comfortable with issues like housing insecurity, substance use, psychosis, suicidality & case management.
