LGBT therapists in Salida, CO

“Have you been carrying a lot, but haven’t had a place to truly unpack it?” I offer a client-centered, collaborative approach to therapy, creating a supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and respected. Sessions move at your pace, with a focus on understanding the root of what you’re experiencing—not just managing symptoms. I use evidence-based approaches tailored to each individual’s unique needs and experiences. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, life transitions, and self-esteem. My work includes supporting adults from all walks of life, including veterans, LGBTQ+ individuals, men and women, human trafficking victims, domestic violence victims, high-acuity clients, and those receiving care at different levels of intensity. My goal is to help clients gain insight, build effective coping skills, and move forward with greater confidence and resilience.

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.

Welcome! Hi, I'm Dr. Sarah Muñoz (she/her). I have a PhD in Counseling Psychology and have experience working in college counseling centers and private practice. These experiences have shaped my commitment to meeting clients where they are and providing thoughtful, individualized care that honors their unique experiences, strengths, and goals. I create a therapeutic space where clients feel seen, valued, and supported. I believe healing happens through trust, collaboration, and cultural responsiveness. I focus on concerns related to trauma, religious and spiritual concerns, substance misuse, anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, suicidal ideation, and identity exploration.

Hi, I’m Laura and I specialize in helping women and teens heal from trauma, whether it shows up as anxiety, overthinking, people-pleasing, or feeling completely disconnected from themselves. I experienced trauma growing up and know firsthand how it impacts the whole body.

Through Somatic therapy, Brainspotting, and EMDR, I help clients release what’s stuck in their bodies and rebuild trust in themselves—because healing isn’t about “getting over it,” it’s about feeling safe again.

Therapy should be accessible and affordable, you deserve to life a live free of self judgment and doubt. I offer a warm, affirming, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore all parts of yourself. My approach is collaborative, helping you to find skills and ways of thinking that actually make a difference. My role is to walk alongside you as you slow things down, make sense of what’s happening inside, and reconnect with your own clarity and voice.

I’m bilingual in Japanese and English and bring a multicultural lens to my work with individuals and couples. I work with clients who are navigating trauma, relationship difficulties, emotional disconnection, or patterns they understand intellectually but have difficulty changing. Therapy is a process of building emotional, mental, and physiological safety; exploring how your experiences have shaped the way you relate to yourself, others, and the world; processing unresolved emotions; and moving toward becoming more whole.

Welcome! I'm Austin and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Colorado. I am fully licensed as of July 2026 but prior to this, I have worked in both outpatient and correctional settings as a provisionally licensed counselor and intern. I work with clients 18+ with presenting issues including depression, anxiety, grief, and more to improve areas such as emotion regulation and distress tolerance. I also enjoy working with those in the LGBTQIA+ community and am a member of the community myself!
