You want a therapist you can actually talk to, who listens closely, asks real questions, and knows what they’re doing. I work with teens, adults, and couples facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship problems, substance use, stress, anger, major life changes, or simply feeling stuck.

I’m dually licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Addiction Counselor and have worked in outpatient, inpatient, school-based, crisis, forensic, and co-occurring treatment settings. That experience has taught me to look beyond symptoms, understand the bigger picture, and tailor therapy to the person in front of me.

My style is practical, straightforward, open-minded, and collaborative. You do not need to know exactly what to say or have everything figured out before you start. We can begin with what is actually going on, make sense of it together, and focus on changes that matter in your day-to-day life.

Come as you are. We’ll go from there.

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 Therapist in Salida

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.
