I am accepting new clients.
We all need someone to listen to, understand, and support us, especially during times of uncertainty and transition. My goal is to create a safe, therapeutic space in which you feel comfortable to be yourself and share your fears, hopes, and struggles. As each client is a unique individual, I feel the process of counseling should be tailored to meet your specific needs. I believe you are the expert in your own life, and have the innate ability to heal.
I earned my doctorate degree in clinical psychology from the University of Denver and have been in private practice for over ten years. I consider it an honor to be in relationship with my clients and to help them better understand themselves and change their lives. I strive to celebrate and create a safe space for all aspects of your identity.
I am a published researcher and licensed professional counselor with a Masters Degree in Clinical Psychology.
I am trained in the scientist-practitioner model and strive to ensure my clinical approach to therapy is informed by up-to-date and cutting edge research. I strive to create a safe and judgement-free therapeutic relationship where we can collaborate to accomplish your goals.
I help highly sensitive persons navigate the stressors and challenges in the world to find their authentic self and a life worth embracing. Do you think deeply about the world, yourself, and those around you? Do you experience a profound sense of empathy, feeling more deeply than most people around you? Do you find challenges in communicating your inner most thoughts and feelings with others? Do feel lost and want to find a way to get back on track? I am here to guide you on your journey.
I am Betty Steer, a dual board-certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC) and a graduate of the University of Nebraska Medical Center. My mission is to change the conversation around mental health. Beyond my clinical practice, I am an active advocate for mental health. Choosing to prioritize your mental wellness is an act of strength. Whether you are seeking support for yourself or your child, you deserve a provider who treats you as a whole person, not just a diagnosis. I am currently welcoming new patients. You’ve carried this weight alone long enough—call or email me today to take the first step toward reclaiming your stability and joy
Hi, I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with six years of experience supporting people through life’s challenges. I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and empowering. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, build helpful coping tools, and move toward the life you want.
Welcome! I know reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, and my hope is that from our first session you'll feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are. I'm warm, down-to-earth, and bring a sense of curiosity, humor, and authenticity into my work. I believe therapy doesn't have to feel overly clinical, it's a collaborative space where we can talk honestly about what's going on, celebrate your strengths, and work through the messy parts of being human together. I have experience supporting adults, couples, and teens through anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, and substance use concerns, and I tailor our work to what feels most helpful and meaningful to you. Whether you're looking for practical tools, deeper self-understanding, or simply a place to exhale and be heard, I'd be honored to be part of your journey.
Hi there! How's the search for a therapist going? Amidst your sea of options, here's what you need to know about me: I use holistic approaches that value my clients’ trust in their own body and emotions. I specialize in religious trauma, postpartum, and parenthood issues, depression, anxiety, and other traumas. I am a sex-positive LGBTQ+ ally who is HAES aligned. I support Black Lives Matter. Let's talk if that feels in alignment with what you're looking for.
I have been providing individual and couples therapy since I graduated with my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2015, and I specialize in treating adults.
I believe counseling is a collaborative process and starts in the first session as we work together to understand your concerns. My first intention for you is to feel empowered, nurtured, and strengthened by the work we do together. I will work with you to create a safe and trusting space in which you can explore challenges that have hindered your ability to take full advantage of your potential. Together we will work on resolving difficult issues to promote increased self-awareness, understanding, and connection.
Welcome, and thank you for being here. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified Public Accountant. This unique combination allows me to help clients navigate both emotional struggles and practical life stressors with greater clarity and confidence. I provide a supportive space to understand the patterns shaping your life and develop practical tools for lasting change. If you’re looking for a therapist who will support you and meet you where you are, I would be honored to walk alongside you!
