As a licensed Marriage and Family therapist who specialized early in working with under supported and marginalized groups. I don't think about relational therapy as something limited to the nuclear family model, rather as a way to see ourselves as parts of bigger systems. I am an ADHD Clinical Services provider who also has ADHD, so I know just what it is like to think outside and be outside the box. I studied literature in my undergrad and this helps me to help people understand and write their own life stories.
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 a Master's level licensed psychotherapist with almost 40 years of experience. I'm invested in your best outcomes, your emotional growth and success through this process. I work from a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach, pulling in mindful awareness work for clarity and creative skill-set development. We'll gently explore your family of origin, your current sense of self and related topics. We'll build a therapeutic plan that fits for what you're looking for.
From the moment we begin working together, my goal is to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can safely explore life's challenges, build self-awareness, and move toward meaningful change at your own pace. With nearly a decade of experience in the mental health field, I work with adults of all ages navigating anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, self-esteem challenges, and the impacts of addiction. There is a particular place in my heart for emerging adults as they find their footing through identity development, relationships, career pressures, and the significant changes that come with early adulthood.
Earning my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Adams State University and my LPC credential brought me to outpatient therapy in the Boulder area, where I offer individual counseling to adults building a fulfilling life. At the heart of this work is a belief in the resilience of the human spirit. I'm here to walk alongside you with care.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with 16 years of experience supporting individuals through a wide range of life experiences and challenges. Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work with diverse populations and address many different areas of mental health and personal growth.
I have a Master of Science degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I own a private practice, Inner Wisdom Guidance Counseling, working as a licensed mental health counselor and licensed professional counselor. I work with adults and couples, support women through midlife change and clients experiencing grief, loss, and life transitions.
I believe that we are experts in our own lives and that we possess an inner wisdom within us to guide us. We might get out of balance through our life's journey and become disconnected from our authentic self, which may cause symptoms of depression and anxiety. Having assistance would be helpful to navigate through difficult emotions, life transitions and traumatic events we may experience so we can return home to ourselves. I view the counseling experience as a partnership. I act as a guide, providing a safe space and tools to assist you in becoming clear, grounded, centered and better equipped to make choices that are right for you.
I am Betty Steer, a dual board-certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC) and a graduate of the University of Nebraska Medical Center. My mission is to change the conversation around mental health. Beyond my clinical practice, I am an active advocate for mental health. Choosing to prioritize your mental wellness is an act of strength. Whether you are seeking support for yourself or your child, you deserve a provider who treats you as a whole person, not just a diagnosis. I am currently welcoming new patients. You’ve carried this weight alone long enough—call or email me today to take the first step toward reclaiming your stability and joy
I have over 30 years of direct clinical experience. I work remotely at this time, and blend cognitive behavioral techniques with psychodynamic techniques, including dream work (if interested). I work with adults with a wide range of challenges. I cannot make your anxiety disappear; however, I can help you change your relationship to it.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or constantly on edge, your nervous system may be working overtime - not because you're doing something wrong, but because it's trying to protect you. Together, we'll make sense of what's happening beneath the surface and build practical strategies to help you reconnect with yourself and your sense of agency.
Do you ever feel unseen, unheard, or like you carried responsibilities no child should have had to? If that resonates, you are not alone. I work with adults and couples who grew up with an emotionally immature parent and still feel the effects on their relationships, self worth, and sense of self. Together we will explore these dynamics and how they shape your life today, and I will help you build the insight, confidence, and self trust to move forward. I also support people through anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, life transitions, and the relationship struggles that come with all of it.
I provide psychiatric medication management services that are tailored specifically to you and your needs. My practice revolves around working towards creating solutions that work for your life. Whether you are trying medication for the first time, looking to change medications, or wanting to taper off completely, we will go at your pace and process issues together as they arise. I take a full-person approach and will recommend treatments beyond medication. Medication alone is rarely a full solution so those that are ready to put in the effort to get to the core of the issues will work best with me
It can be uncomfortable to decide to seek out help and to share your worries with someone. I strive to create an environment that is nonjudgemental, confidential, and solution focused. I will integrate therapy into our sessions to cultivate insight, appreciation, and understanding of your past and current circumstances.
Controlled substances are used minimally and conservatively in my practice as many of these are not long term solutions. I work with adults of all races, ethnicities, and LGBTQIA2S+. The best way to get connected with me is to visit our website hhmhc.com and submit your information on the "Appointment Request" form.
Hello, I'm Carolyn. I want to help you feel more like yourself. Trauma, grief, stress, and change can all be uprooting to the self. I want to help you find your way back to you. I will empower you to find your voice, discover your desires, and explore the path that is right for you. It is a beautiful strength to ask for help. I would be honored to join you in that journey. Connection and understanding can help us all through the moments that feel most painful. No one should walk through life alone, if you'll allow me, I wish to walk along with you, and hold some of the weight.
I’m bilingual in Japanese and English and bring a multicultural lens to my work with individuals and couples. I work with clients who are navigating trauma, relationship difficulties, emotional disconnection, or patterns they understand intellectually but have difficulty changing. Therapy is a process of building emotional, mental, and physiological safety; exploring how your experiences have shaped the way you relate to yourself, others, and the world; processing unresolved emotions; and moving toward becoming more whole.
In therapy with me, you’ll find a space that balances comfort with challenge. We’ll explore what matters most, get curious about patterns, and use humor when it helps lighten the load. I work with individuals and couples, helping you reconnect with your strengths, make meaningful choices, and build relationships that feel genuine to you.
