Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Monument, CO

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.

You may look like you are holding everything together while feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted underneath. I work with adults navigating trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, substance use and recovery, co-occurring concerns, and difficult life transitions.

With 19 years of behavioral health experience, I bring extensive experience in addiction and recovery and am trained in EMDR through the Francine Shapiro EMDR Institute. I understand that people are more than a diagnosis and that the ways we learn to cope often make sense in the context of what we have lived through—even when those same patterns are no longer helping us today.

My style is warm, genuine, and direct. I offer a nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard while also doing meaningful work toward change. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, and I tailor therapy to your needs, goals, strengths, and readiness.

I offer IN-PERSON APPOINTMENTS in Goodyear, Arizona, serving the West Valley, as well as virtual therapy throughout Arizona, Wisconsin, Colorado, Michigan, Florida, and New Jersey.

We'll meet at your readiness level and make meaning of the tough choices, navigate the hard edges, or forge a path through uncharted territory. I am a psychotherapist living in Colorado. I earned my MSW from Fordham University and have enjoyed previous work as a crisis therapist in hospital settings.

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.

Natalie is a compassionate ANCC Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 15 years of experience. She provides care to a diverse patient population in Florida, offering both virtual and in-person psychiatric services. Additionally, she extends virtual psychiatric care to patients in Colorado.

Her approach emphasizes individualized treatment plans and a client-centered methodology. Natalie's primary objectives are to ensure that every client feels heard, to educate clients on participating in their health journey, and to deliver professional care.

Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you’ve spent a long time trying to manage everything on your own. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. I believe therapy should be a place where you can be honest about what you’re experiencing while feeling empowered to make meaningful changes at your own pace.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship concerns, stress, and challenges related to substance use and recovery. I also have experience supporting military service members and their families and understand that the experiences that bring someone to therapy are often complex and deeply personal.

My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that you are the expert on your own life. Rather than simply telling you what you should do, I work alongside you to understand where you are, identify what may be keeping you stuck, and develop practical tools that fit your life and your goals.

Hi, I'm Darrien. During my time as a therapist, I have seen the inter-workings of all levels of care, ranging from inpatient hospitalization to private practice. Most of the clients I have worked with have been in crisis, recovery, and acute stress which has prepared me for individual therapy in a way that allows me to hold space for all aspects of the client, their past, present, and their future. I specialize in helping adults experiencing addictions with co-occuring mood disorders.
