Hello, I'm Laura. As a compassionate and experienced masters level counselor, I help individuals navigate their emotional struggles with evidence-based therapy.

I believe that healing occurs within the therapeutic relationship. I have always been an empathetic person who has been passionate about helping others solve problems and unlock the potential people didn't know they had. Eventually, I decided to make a career out of doing this. It's without a doubt, my life purpose. When you are ready to reach out, you will receive a warm, prompt and caring response.

I’m Gloria, a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and self-esteem concerns.

My experience includes working with individuals experiencing PTSD, anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, and the effects of trauma and major life changes.

I provide therapy in both English and Spanish.

Credentials and Experience

I'm a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma and Colorado, a board-certified counselor (NCC), and hold a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision - which means I don't just practice therapy, I train and supervise other therapists. That clinical depth shapes everything about how I work with clients.

My specialization is neurocounseling: integrating what we know about the brain and nervous system into practical, grounded therapy. I also hold specialized training in telehealth - so working with you virtually isn't a workaround, it's where I do my best work.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, burnout, trauma, identity, and the particular kind of exhaustion that comes from holding everything together for too long.

Hello! My name is Jenny Johnson and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) in Colorado Springs. I have been in the counseling field for 8 years, and I have worked with people who struggle with substance use problems, or who have loved ones that are struggling with substance use, people who battle with mental and emotional turmoil, and trauma survivors.

I am a double board-certified Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience across the continuum of psychiatric care, including acute psychiatric emergencies, inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, geriatric mental health, intellectual and developmental disability services, and healthcare management. I hold a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) and am currently completing my Doctorate, reflecting my ongoing commitment to clinical excellence, evidence-based practice, and lifelong learning.

Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals and families navigating a wide range of psychiatric conditions, from situational anxiety and depression to severe and persistent mental illness. My clinical experience includes extensive work with schizophrenia and psychotic disorders, bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), trauma-related conditions, and mood instability across the lifespan. I am particularly experienced in caring for geriatric patients, individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and patients with complex medication regimens requiring careful evaluation, simplification, and long-term stabilization.

I also work closely with college-aged patients and adults who are navigating academic pressure, career transitions, family dynamics, identity development, and the cumulative stressors that can emerge during periods of high responsibility or change. Many of my patients are high-functioning individuals who appear “put together” on the outside but struggle internally with anxiety, rumination, intrusive thoughts, emotional dysregulation, or burnout. Others are managing chronic psychiatric illness while striving to maintain independence, relationships, and quality of life.

I have been practicing 25 years. I have walked the path of life and its difficulties through lived experience
