Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Salida, CO covered by Aetna

Hi! My name is Jenn! I believe that healing begins with feeling truly seen, heard, and accepted. Throughout my own life, I have experienced some dark and difficult seasons, and it's those that brought me to this field of work and shaped the therapist I am today. Life has taught me the importance of kindness, compassion, open-mindedness, and the power of having someone beside you when life feels overwhelming.

I take a fresh, integrative approach to individualized psychotherapy, tailoring my treatment approach to each client's unique needs and goals. My work is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps clients better understand and regulate their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and reactions.

I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), helping clients develop greater acceptance of difficult emotions and circumstances that may be out of their control while taking meaningful action aligned with their personal values. With seven years of experience as a Group Facilitator and Individual Therapist in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I utilize evidence-based skills and mindfulness practices to help clients improve emotional regulation, increase self-awareness, and build resilience.

You might look like you have it together from the outside: steady job, functioning relationships, managing the day to day. But inside you're running on fumes, and you're tired of just pushing through. I work with young adults, college students, and adults navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, and the frustration of feeling stuck without knowing why. I'm also an Army veteran, and I bring firsthand experience of what pressure, resilience, and major transitions actually demand. If faith is part of how you make sense of life, it's welcome here. If it's not, that's fine too. Clients often tell me I'm surprisingly easy to talk to.

Sometimes the hardest part is just deciding to reach out. I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are navigating anxiety, trauma, family stress, and the weight of experiences that are hard to carry alone. I am affirming and experienced in working with LGBTQIA+ and transgender individuals, and I welcome clients across a wide range of backgrounds and life circumstances. Whether you are dealing with the effects of trauma, anxiety that has become hard to manage, or stress that has quietly built up over time, I want our work together to feel like a genuine partnership.

Hi, I'm Tyler. I work with adults navigating complex trauma, dissociation, and gender-affirming care — especially folks who've spent years holding it all together and are ready to stop performing that for a while. If therapy has felt clinical, rushed, or like you had to translate yourself to be understood, you're not alone in that. As a transmasc therapist using he/they pronouns, I know this work from both sides of the room. I'm committed to a space where all the parts of you — the ones that kept you safe and the ones you're still getting to know — are welcome.

Hi, I'm Dorothy, a licensed counselor with 30 years of experience in the mental health field. As an artist and a lifelong student, my goal as a therapist is to help you become your own best friend. I work with adults, teens, and children in both individual and family therapy settings, tailoring my approach to meet the unique needs of each client.

Hello, I am Jenny Agbortogho, a licensed psychologist with over 20 years of experience in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). While I have worked with a wide range of clients, my focus is with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, and co-occurring substance use difficulties. With a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology and training in motivational interviewing, trauma-informed care, and strengths-based treatment, I value the interpersonal connections that are made within therapy sessions. I also have expertise in developing healthy lifestyle patterns and have seen the power of mindfulness and self-compassion in helping people improve their lives.
