Hello! My name is Bree. I consider myself lucky to be in a position to support people as they navigate the often absurd, messy, and unpredictable situations life throws our way. I bring warmth, authenticity, and respect for every person's story. I care deeply about honoring your lived experience and the bigger picture of the world you move through.
I approach all experiences with curiosity and respect, including those that are unusual, feel out of the ordinary, spiritual, or hard to explain. My goal is to help you make sense of your experiences in a way that is authentic and empowering, without judgment or jumping to conclusions or diagnoses. I believe it’s important to look at the whole picture and never rush to label or define what you’re going through.
I'm also trained in Restorative Justice practices, and can offer support to anyone who’s been impacted by harm-whether you’ve experienced it, caused it, or both. In addition, if you’re interested in exploring Restorative Dialogue, or are already engaged in the process, I can support you every step of the way.
Life can be overwhelming, and sometimes the challenges we face—whether it’s the stress of being a new parent, navigating a difficult relationship, managing trauma, or dealing with anxiety and depression—can feel insurmountable. I believe that every person has inherent strengths that can be harnessed to create positive change. In our work together, we will explore your unique needs and build practical, personalized tools that empower you to navigate life’s challenges with confidence.
With over 20 years of experience in diverse behavioral health settings, I bring a wealth of knowledge and understanding to help you navigate challenges. I specialize in maternal mental health, trauma, women's issues, relational issues, family conflict, substance use concerns, anxiety, and work or career-related stress.
My introduction to helping people and psychology both came about, as a result of following my mom’s example and the Bob Newhart Show. My mother was a natural people person with a keen interest and background in psychology. My take-away from the Bob Newhart Show drove home the needs for humor and light-heartedness as well as a genuine love for what you do. I believe that those qualities: love for people and my passion and seeing the humor in things truly define me, both as a therapist and a person. My academic journey led me to both bachelors and masters degrees from The University of Northern Colorado and included intensive training in Neuro-Linguistic Programming and Hypnotherapy during my sabbatical in between my degrees. With a strong theoretical base supporting me, I moved forward and was able to blend my education with twenty years of real-world experience. I went on and diversified my experience as I worked in community counseling, community corrections, Inpatient psychiatric hospitals, and private practice. Although our learning never ceases, I feel very comfortable and sincere in offering clients my wealth of experience, knowledge of human behavior, and most of all, a kind ear.

I became a Licensed Clinical Social Worker because I am passionate about helping individuals recover from religious trauma, relationship wounds, and patterns of people-pleasing and perfectionism. Through 10 years of bringing this passion to therapy, I have witnessed my clients gain radical self-compassion and build a strong, trusting relationship with themselves. From this deeply supportive space, they have learned to set and keep boundaries for self-care, find a clear understanding of their identity, and uncovered a deep and abiding ability to nurture and care for their pain and trauma. This has resulted in my clients gently leading themselves into the life they’ve been yearning for.
I deeply value a strong, trusting, and safe therapeutic relationship and the co-creation of this container for the work we do together. I value and trust your internal healing wisdom, and am committed to exploring and developing this together in safety.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Fort Collins
Searching for therapists in Fort Collins starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People may look for therapy for anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship concerns, grief, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare Fort Collins therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and therapy approach match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, somatic therapy, or couples therapy.
Fort Collins has a strong local care community, with options near downtown, south Fort Collins, and surrounding areas, but the right fit may also depend on schedule and format. Some people prefer in-person sessions in a therapist’s office, while others choose virtual appointments for more flexibility around work, school, caregiving, or transportation. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, free phone consultations, and how clearly their profile explains their style. If you are looking for a counselor in Fort Collins, Colorado, reading bios before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Fort Collins can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. You can browse therapists in Fort Collins, review profiles, and book directly when you are ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
