Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Colorado Springs, CO


Each of us has experienced difficulties in our lives that have impacted how we see ourselves, others and God These experiences can result in anxiety, depression, grief, sadness and pain. Exploring these events from a holistic perspective allows us to find healing and wholeness-body, mind and spirit. I especially enjoy working with young adults, believing that the sooner we can be free from our skewed perspectives, the more we can walk in wholeness and health. A healed perspective allows us to make healthy choices for our future. I believe clients who have a safe place to share their story can find lasting healing.

I offer individual counseling. I am trained in EMDR. I am a wife, mom of four including an adult child with special needs, and a grandmother. I have experienced healing in many areas of my life and believe that healing and wholeness is possible for my clients!

I help people create meaningful, lasting change in their lives—on their terms. My work is rooted in real-life experience.

J. Olivia Drumm

Therapist

Virtual • Colorado


I specialize in working with anxiety, trauma, PTSD, identity exploration, family dynamics, depression, stress, and relationship challenges.

I also support clients navigating creative blocks, life transitions, cultural identity, and the emotional effects of childhood experiences. Many of the individuals I work with describe feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to put their experiences into words — and that’s okay. Healing isn’t about perfection or having a polished story. It’s about beginning where you are.

My journey into becoming a therapist began well before I was born — shaped by the inheritance of generational mental health patterns within my family. As a teenager, I turned to art-making as a way to express and process what I didn’t yet have language for. That process sparked curiosity and eventually led me to explore psychology, anthropology, indigenous healing traditions, and later, art therapy as a modality that honors both mind and body.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Salida, CO

Searching for therapists in Salida starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, or a life transition. As you compare therapists, look for specialties, therapy styles, and experience that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their approach, what sessions may feel like, and whether they have experience with the concerns you want to address.

In a smaller city like Salida, the number of local in-person therapists may be limited. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Colorado. Consider what fits your schedule, whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions, and how soon a therapist is accepting new clients. Reading profiles before you book can also help you compare communication style, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is available.

Therapy in Salida can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and schedule directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
