Grief counselors and therapists in Monument, CO

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University. I work with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, and relationship difficulties, including recovery from emotionally unhealthy or narcissistic dynamics. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, respected, and understood. I am passionate about helping clients reconnect with their strengths and move toward meaningful, lasting healing.

I believe meaningful change begins with feeling understood. As both a therapist and Air Force veteran, I value authenticity, resilience, and the importance of genuine human connection. Clients often describe me as approachable, thoughtful, and direct when needed. I strive to create a space where you can show up as you are and feel supported as you work toward your goals.

I work with adults and older teens navigating addiction, trauma, co-occurring mental health concerns, and life transitions. I am experienced in supporting veterans, first responders, and those impacted by a loved one's substance use. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for change, my goal is to help you better understand your experiences and move forward with greater confidence.

My journey began with a deep commitment to serving others, which led me to work within the Georgia state prison system. There, I honed my skills in providing support to those navigating difficult circumstances, gaining invaluable experience in crisis intervention and rehabilitation.

Following my time working in the prison system, I had the privilege of working with the U.S. Army, where I provided counseling services to military personnel and their families. As a military spouse myself, I understand the unique challenges faced by military families and am deeply committed to offering tailored support to help them thrive.

My career path then took me to Palmer Lake Recovery, where I worked with individuals struggling with addiction. This role allowed me to develop a deep understanding of the complexities of substance abuse and recovery, and I am dedicated to helping my clients achieve lasting sobriety.

Outside of my professional life, I find joy in spending time with my husband, sweet cocker spaniels, and my adult children. My family and pets bring me great happiness and balance, and I understand the importance of a strong support system in maintaining mental health.

I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and support you on your journey toward wellness. Together, we can navigate the challenges you face and uncover the strength within you to create a fulfilling and meaningful life.

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

Hello, I'm Liz! I have over 5 years of experience working inpatient, outpatient, and varying levels of severity. I enjoy getting to know people and be an extra ear to their troubles. I can be sarcastic at times, and consider myself a person talking to people!

Hi, my name is Tami and I have 18+ years of experience specializing in working with adults around issues of trauma, depression, substance abuse, and anxiety.

I have been working in the field of Social Work since 1998. Over the years, I have lived and worked in many different states from the East Coast to the West Coast. I have worked with people in a variety of settings including college campuses, substance abuse treatment programs, the Special Victims Unit of the District Attorney's office, child welfare, crisis centers, and programs serving folks experiencing psychosis. All of these experiences have enriched my life and provided opportunities to learn and grow as a therapist.

I have also walked my own journey of recovery over the years and have had the pleasure of working with a number of caring and talented therapists and mentors who have helped me with my own healing. I am forever grateful to the role they have played in guiding and supporting me along the way.

We are all on a journey. Sometimes we have the honor of supporting others and sometimes we are honored to receive support. If I can be of support to you at this time, please reach out!

My passion has always been to empower others to live their fullest, most authentic lives. I believe that each of us holds the strength, wisdom, and resilience we need within—we simply need the space, support, and encouragement to uncover it. I’m driven by a deep desire to help others overcome self-doubt, reconnect with their inner voice, and build a life aligned with their values, passions, and purpose.

"What matters more than what you know is how much you care" is a phrase I took with me from one of my professors in Grad School. I believe that statement embodies who I am and what I bring to the practice - lots of care! With that said, I have been in practice either working in both alternative and traditional high schools, as a school-based therapist in a facility school for students with special needs, and/or in the private setting since 2016. I have worked with a wide range of ages and populations, not just kids/teens but adults too! My experience includes helping those struggling with depression, anxiety, ADHD, divorce/parenting/blended families, grief/loss, sexual abuse and other traumas, autism, intellectual disabilities with co-occurring mental health diagnoses, immigration issues, and even college/career counseling. I really enjoy working with all ages! I was a double major at University of Northern Colorado, studying both School Counseling and Clinical Mental Health. I completed all of the coursework for both tracks and the School Counseling internship, graduating in May 2017.
