LGBT therapists in Longmont, CO

Hi and thanks for checking out my profile! I specialize in working with couples and individuals experiencing relationship issues. I also provide Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy. My education is in clinical mental health and I have a wide range of clinical experience. I focus on the emotional connection between couples and helping individuals build thriving relationships with themselves and others!

Hi, my name is Zach, and I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Denver Seminary’s CACREP accredited program. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado, and I work largely with LGBTQ+ individuals, specializing in religious trauma and spirituality, existential distress, eating disorders and body image, relationship issues, and grief and loss.

Hello! Nice to meet you! I am a board-certified, Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience. I specialize in child/teen therapy and improving family communication. I enjoy helping people look at challenges in different ways. I am a member of a certified therapy dog team with my Corgi, Olive. I am also a Global Career Development Facilitator and enjoy coaching people through transitions.

I specialize in helping clients reconnect with the power that’s already within them. You’re in the driver’s seat, and I’m the passenger here to support, guide, and travel alongside you. With a trauma-informed and person-centered approach, I work with adults of all ages on challenges like anxiety, depression, and complex trauma. As a clinician who identifies as LGBTQIA+, I also aim to be a supportive and empowering presence for those navigating identity, belonging, and self-trust.

Growing up neurodivergent, I knew my life purpose was to learn to navigate a world that wasn't meant for me and to help others do the same. As a therapist, former teacher, & crisis responder, I understand what it takes to navigate toxic stress in a world that wasn't built for your brain or nervous system. I had a period as a young adult in which I was disabled by neurodivergent burnout and had to reshape my entire life trajectory. I had a therapist that truly saw me - it was the support I needed to create my future self. Today, that same passion drives my clinical work. You are not broken, and your adaptations make complete sense given what you’ve been through.

​

I earned a BA in Psychology/Human Services, went on for an MSW and have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2017. I have extensive experience as a school clinician, respite business owner, and non-profit director. I opened my therapy practice in 2019. ​ My practice focuses on supporting neurodivergent and gifted teens and adults, women, LGBTQ+/ENBY/Trans*, and BIPOC folks facing burnout, trauma, grief and major life pivots. Whether you are processing trauma, recovering from betrayal, navigating divorce, parenting, facing loss, health changes, or untangling the burnout of masking or people-pleasing, our work centers on helping you drop the mask, establish meaningful boundaries, and step into grounded self-worth. Your future self is waiting! In our sessions, you can expect warm, down-to-earth collaboration rooted in real-world strategies. When you’re ready to prioritize your own healing, I invite you to connect with me. Outside of being a therapist, I am a proud single momma to a neuro-spicy kiddo and a pittie. I enjoy crafting, travel, making art, yoga, dancing, and the outdoors.

My name is Shannon Hansen, MS, LMFT. I work with adult individuals, couples, and a variety of relational dynamics, offering a warm, compassionate yet unconventional therapy environment. In addition to teletherapy, I offer equine assisted psychotherapy and nature-based therapy for those who are wanting a more engaging therapeutic experience. I love offering a safe space to metaphorically, and literally, get messy in the deep dive of gaining a better understanding of the human experience. With the support of myself, the animals, and many other beings of the natural world, together we will dive in and emerge with the resources and understanding that will help you thrive in life and relationships.

It is one of my core beliefs that every person is the expert on their own life and experiences. As a therapist, I aim to be a witness to your journey and a source of feedback, clarity, and support. Through evidence-based techniques and compassionate guidance, I help clients develop coping skills, improve self-awareness, and cultivate resilience. I have a background in schools and special education, a Bachelors degree in Psychology and Master of Social Work with a concentration in Mental Health.

I enjoy working with clients ages 16+, but most of my clients are 25-50. My clients come from a variety of backgrounds and careers such as educators, engineers, nurses, students, stay at home parents and those between careers.

I was born and raised in Cincinnati, OH and hold a Master degree from Xavier University. You can expect a safe and comfortable environment as we dialogue to help you sort through emotions. We may delve into your past but we won't dwell there because your energy is needed in the present moment as you look within yourself to find peace and the power to be your true self.

PLEASE NOTE: I am licensed in CO/FL/TX but accept insurance only in CO/FL/TX. Self pay option is available at $95 for in person sessions and $60 for tele-health.
