Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Grand Junction, CO

I am a licensed clinical therapist with experience working in both crisis settings and long-term trauma-focused therapy. Early in my career, I worked at a crisis center where I completed my internship and later worked for several years supporting individuals in high-stress and emotionally difficult situations. This experience helped shape a calm, grounded, and compassionate approach to therapy.

I specialize in EMDR-informed therapy, trauma, attachment wounds, codependency, grief, and relational patterns. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck in repeating emotional or relationship dynamics despite having insight into their patterns. My approach focuses on helping clients move beyond survival-based coping and create deeper emotional healing and lasting change.

I use a collaborative, person-centered, and attachment-based approach tailored to each client’s needs. I work with adults from diverse backgrounds and strive to create a supportive space where clients feel emotionally safe, understood, and empowered throughout the therapeutic process.

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.

As a graduate of the University of Southern California and an active-duty Navy Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals and families around the world including children, teens, spouses, GS employees, retirees, and active-duty service members.

I believe that healing happens when people feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. My goal is to create a supportive, collaborative space where you can explore life's challenges, build on your strengths, and move toward meaningful, lasting change.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master of Social Work and more than 11 years of experience supporting individuals, families, and communities. Throughout my career, I have worked in a variety of settings, helping people navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and complex systems. Before becoming a social worker, I spent several years as a grassroots community organizer, advocating alongside individuals and communities to address systemic barriers and promote social change. That experience continues to shape my belief that every person's story is influenced by both their personal experiences and the larger systems around them.

My approach is compassionate, culturally responsive, and strengths-based. I recognize that seeking therapy is a courageous step, and I strive to create a space where you can show up as your authentic self without judgment. Together, we'll identify your goals, build practical tools, and work toward the life you want to create.

Whether you're navigating a difficult season, processing past experiences, or simply looking to better understand yourself, I would be honored to support you on your journey.

Hi there! How's the search for a therapist going? Amidst your sea of options, here's what you need to know about me: I use holistic approaches that value my clients’ trust in their own body and emotions. I specialize in religious trauma, postpartum, and parenthood issues, depression, anxiety, and other traumas. I am a sex-positive LGBTQ+ ally who is HAES aligned. I support Black Lives Matter. Let's talk if that feels in alignment with what you're looking for.

I have been providing individual and couples therapy since I graduated with my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2015, and I specialize in treating adults.

Two decades of clinical excellence.

Dr. Cindy Ruelas-Tafolla's path to becoming a clinician began at age 13 with the sudden loss of her father — an experience that planted the seed of her life's purpose: to be the kind of support she needed during her own darkest moments.

She earned her Bachelor of Arts in Law and Society from UC Santa Barbara, her Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California, and her Doctorate in Social Work (DSW) from USC.

Over two decades, she has served as a Medical Social Worker, Case Manager, and Behavioral Health Therapist — bringing doctoral-level depth, board-certified credentials, and genuine compassion to every client she works with.

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.

My name is Glen Alan Ensinger. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado. I lived in Colorado for over 1 year and was licensed last March. I have been licensed as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois since 2002. I have provided crisis counseling and domestic violence counseling for perpetrators and victims. I completed my master's degree at Western Illinois University which included a practicum and internship at White Oaks in Peoria, Illinois. This is a substance abuse program. I have worked at a school for children with behavioral problems and also have provided counseling and crisis services at a community mental health center. For approximately 10 years I was on clinical staff for the University of Illinois College of Medicine in Peoria, Illinois where I provided counseling services for clients in the HIV program. I worked over 8 years at the 9th Judicial Court in Illinois as a court services therapist. I have a private practice that includes working for programs that helped children either get adopted or return home from the foster care program (or help parents get the children returned to them). My primary work has been with families, couples and children. I use dialectical behavioral therapy, rational emotive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and general Rogerian therapy to help people live more successful lives.

I am a multi-state licensed therapist across California, Colorado, Iowa, Nebraska, and Texas, specializing in helping adults navigate deep-seated mental health challenges alongside intense personal and professional transitions.

With vast clinical experience, I have served as a university career counselor, a specialist for healthcare professionals, and a dedicated clinician within both the US Navy Family Advocacy Program and the Department of Veterans Affairs.

My practice provides a highly supportive, practical space for college students, working adults at all career stages, healthcare workers, service members, Veterans, and the LGBTQIA+ community.

I blend empathetic listening with deep clinical insight to help you manage and heal from:

Core Mental Health & Neurodivergence:

Anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, and identity exploration.

Trauma & Life Impact:

Complex trauma, PTSD, grief, loss, and managing chronic medical conditions.

Daily Survival:

Severe career burnout, relationship problems, and navigating life's overlapping pressures.

I believe healing happens when we no longer carry our stories alone. I strive to create a space where you're celebrated and understood exactly as you are now. Together, we'll deconstruct stories shaped by shame to create narratives rooted in agency, authenticity and self-compassion.

As a queer, non-binary, non-monogamous therapist with lived experience of trauma, I specialize in working with queer, transgender, and non-monogamous adults (18+) navigating complex trauma (CPTSD), identity formation, depression, anxiety and neurodivergence.
