My name is Kalena Castaneda (she/her) and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and am a Nationally Certified Counselor. I am also a Certified Personal Trainer. I am a full believer in taking care of the mind, body, and soul.
In order for us to feel the joys of life, we must do all three. Which is why I have tried to incorporate each aspect into my own practice. Something I had never seen, and something I've always wanted to do. I look forward to meeting new humans who truly want to find new ways to connect with and understand self.

Hi, I'm Riley Naylor, and I'm so glad you're here! I received my Master’s in Clinical Counseling from Grand Canyon University, and for the past four years, I've dedicated myself to supporting women through some of life's toughest challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and more. I believe that everyone deserves a safe space to explore their feelings and find the resources they need to thrive.
My approach to therapy is rooted in positivity and strength-based techniques. I focus on building on the unique strengths of each individual, helping them navigate life's stressors and transitions. Whether you're dealing with childhood or adolescent development issues, career counseling, or work-life balance, I'm here to support you. I have a particular passion for helping parents manage the unique dynamics of family life and supporting those experiencing chronic illness and medical gaslighting.
I have specialized training and certifications for adult trauma that is based in some of the best research and most qualified practitioners in our field.
As a former art teacher, I love incorporating art and creativity into my sessions. I find that creative expression can be a powerful tool for processing emotions and life experiences. My goal is to create a therapeutic environment where you feel comfortable asking the hard questions and exploring new ways to advocate for yourself.
When you work with me, you can expect a collaborative and empathetic approach. I'm here to listen, support, and guide you as you work towards your goals.
Outside of therapy, I enjoy exploring my own creative pursuits and spending time with my family. These personal experiences enrich my work and help me connect with my clients on a deeper level
If you're ready to take the next step in your journey, I'm here to help. Let's work together to build a brighter, more fulfilling future
I am an Indigenous, Latina, and Somatic-based therapist from the Sonoran Desert. I am bi-lingual in English and Spanish. Working to remove the barriers that trauma creates is my expertise. I hold my B.F.A in Dance, a Master’s degree in Somatic Psychology/Dance Movement Therapy, and I am EMDR and DARe certified. In my professional career I have worked as an educator and therapist, with over 25 years of experience, serving diverse ethnic and LGBTQ communities. I currently see clients in person in Tucson, Arizona, and I have flexibility in scheduling after the initial consult. I am licensed in Arizona and Colorado. I can see clients via virtual visits in both states.
I'm a psychologist helping clients to navigate transition and overcome destructive patterns. I have expertise in treating anxiety, ocd, adhd, trauma, depression, addiction, recovery, and relationship challenges. I've had a private practice for over 10 years and work with adult clients at all stages of life. I earned my doctorate in Clinical Psychology at California Institute of Integral Studies, with intensive training at the Portia Bell Hume Center, Kaiser, UCSF, VA and the Jung Institute.
Welcome! I'm Austin and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Colorado. I am fully licensed as of July 2026 but prior to this, I have worked in both outpatient and correctional settings as a provisionally licensed counselor and intern. I work with clients 18+ with presenting issues including depression, anxiety, grief, and more to improve areas such as emotion regulation and distress tolerance. I also enjoy working with those in the LGBTQIA+ community and am a member of the community myself!
Hi, I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with six years of experience supporting people through life’s challenges. I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and empowering. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, build helpful coping tools, and move toward the life you want.
I have found my own personal healing to be intimately connected to nature, and it is here that I believe that we can all begin to rediscover our intrinsic humanity and let go of those things that distract us from our higher selves. In my spare time, I work as an outdoor educator and manage my own private practice and guide Outdoor Retreats
I believe it is helpful and important to translate what is discussed in session and in telehealth meetings into lived experience and real change.
I am excited to work with folks 12+ who don't want therapy to feel like a doctor's office. I have experience working with anxiety, low self-esteem, disconnection, and trauma, as well as folks navigating difficult diagnoses and changing life circumstances that leave them feeling stuck, afraid, or alone.
I am a holistic therapist who believes meaningful healing happens through authentic connection, self-awareness, and a compassionate understanding of the experiences that shape us. I was born and raised in Colorado and received my undergraduate education from California State University and Masters of Science from National University in 2019. I bring a trauma-informed, relational, and integrative approach to my work with clients. I specialize in supporting adults navigating childhood trauma and attachment wounds, grief, life transitions, and the process of reconnecting with themselves. My practice also includes specialized support for psychedelic preparation and integration and Colorado’s emerging natural medicine landscape, when appropriate and within my scope of practice. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe enough to be honest, curious enough to explore, and supported as you move toward a life that feels more authentically your own.
I am a Licensed Holistic Clinical Mental Health Counselor and the founder of Be Transformed Counseling. I help individuals move from hurt to wholeness by supporting healing of the mind, body, and spirit. My approach blends evidence-based therapy with holistic practices, while providing a safe, non-judgmental space for growth. I support clients navigating stress, life transitions, emotional pain, and personal transformation. It is my honor to walk alongside you as you pursue clarity, healing, and lasting change.
