Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Durango, CO

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who welcomes clients ages 14 and older. I am a mother and retired Army veteran who served in military intelligence as a Chinese Cryptologic Linguist.

My work as a forensic interviewer for children who experienced abuse and neglect strengthened my ability to sit with difficult stories and provide safe, trauma-informed care. My lived experiences with trauma, abuse, and autoimmune illness have also shaped my understanding of the mind-body connection.

Hello, I'm Liz! I have over 5 years of experience working inpatient, outpatient, and varying levels of severity. I enjoy getting to know people and be an extra ear to their troubles. I can be sarcastic at times, and consider myself a person talking to people!

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Colorado who works with individual and couples. I offer therapy to treat symptoms of anxiety, depression and trauma and specialize in support for new and emergent parents as they navigate pregnancy, birth and postpartum. My therapy style is relational and non-judgmental; reverent and light-hearted.

Before entering the mental health field, I had what was my dream job: guiding outdoor trips in the United States and abroad. Though this work was invigorating, what felt the most meaningful to me was walking alongside people as they embarked on a life-changing experience, whether backpacking through a storm or exploring a new country. I became a therapist because I saw an opportunity to provide life-changing experiences of a different kind. Prior to starting my therapy practice, I worked in an outpatient community mental health clinic with young people and their families. My most exciting adventure yet, becoming a mother to my daughter in 2025, led me to find my passion in supporting new parents.

With over 30 years in the mental health field, I bring a deep understanding of the therapeutic process and a strong commitment to helping people thrive. I have served as a therapist, clinical supervisor, clinical director, and adjunct professor in settings such as group homes, outpatient clinics, mental health centers, schools, and now private practice. I especially enjoy working with clients who are open to growth, even when it feels challenging.

Hello, and welcome. I'm Christine Laster, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 21 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life's challenges. I earned both my Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) and Master of Social Work (MSW) from Metropolitan State University of Denver.

Throughout my career, I have worked in a variety of settings, including child welfare, school social work, and domestic violence services. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of trauma, resilience, and the unique challenges people face at different stages of life. In addition to my clinical work, I am an adjunct professor at the University of Denver, where I have the privilege of teaching and mentoring graduate-level social work students.

As both a mental health and addiction professional, I bring a compassionate and holistic perspective to my work with clients. I understand that each person’s experiences are unique, and I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel comfortable exploring challenges, building on their strengths, and working toward meaningful change.

My educational background reflects my commitment to understanding the connection between mental health, trauma, and overall well-being. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Health Promotion with a minor in Psychology from Colorado State University–Pueblo, followed by a Master of Social Work with a concentration in Mental Health and Trauma from the University of Denver.

I am a neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-informed therapist who specializes in working with children, teens, and families. I have extensive experience supporting clients with autism, adhd, anxiety, big emotions, and challenging behaviors. I also enjoy providing parent support and coaching.

As a parent of 2 neurodivergent children, I bring both professional expertise and lived empathy to my work. I offer telehealth (primary) in-home, and community-based sessions so I can meet clients where they feel most comfortable.

Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy spending time outdoors, riding my horses, and being with my family. These activities help me stay grounded and connected to what matters most in life. I value balance, authenticity, and meaningful relationships, and I bring those same values into my work with clients. I strive to create a welcoming, supportive environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves and working toward their goals.

Hi, I'm Jennifer! I'm glad you're here. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and as a second-generation Asian American, I understand the cultural and generational dynamics that come with family life - it's close to my heart. I work with individual adults to help them feel more connected, more confident, and less overwhelmed by life's ups and downs.

So much of our wellbeing comes down to the relationship we have with ourselves and others, and I specialize in helping people build ones that feel more meaningful and congruent. I've spent over a decade in this work, and what stays the same is that I show up as myself — and I want you to feel safe doing the same.

Starting therapy can feel daunting, so I'm proud of you for being here. My hope is that you leave feeling heard, understood, and a bit more balanced than when you walked in.

Hi there, I'm Jena, and I'm here to help! I've been a therapist for over 20 years, primarily specializing in crisis intervention. At this point in my career, I'm ready to collaborate with my clients and help them grow to their greatest potential. I understand how hard life can be and I'm ready to walk beside you in your journey.

Here's the honest truth: the license on my wall is fresh. The decade of experience behind it is very much not.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with over 10 years of practicing psychotherapy, and I specialize in the kind of work that tends to find people in the middle of life asking big questions — Who am I now? Is this what I signed up for? Why is my anxiety running the show?
