Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Salida, CO

My name is Glen Alan Ensinger. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado. I lived in Colorado for over 1 year and was licensed last March. I have been licensed as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois since 2002. I have provided crisis counseling and domestic violence counseling for perpetrators and victims. I completed my master's degree at Western Illinois University which included a practicum and internship at White Oaks in Peoria, Illinois. This is a substance abuse program. I have worked at a school for children with behavioral problems and also have provided counseling and crisis services at a community mental health center. For approximately 10 years I was on clinical staff for the University of Illinois College of Medicine in Peoria, Illinois where I provided counseling services for clients in the HIV program. I worked over 8 years at the 9th Judicial Court in Illinois as a court services therapist. I have a private practice that includes working for programs that helped children either get adopted or return home from the foster care program (or help parents get the children returned to them). My primary work has been with families, couples and children. I use dialectical behavioral therapy, rational emotive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and general Rogerian therapy to help people live more successful lives.

Hello! I have 15 years of experience working with depression, anxiety, and trauma in various work settings. I specialize in trauma, ADHD and Perinatal Mental Health. I am trained in EMDR and am very passionate about continuing to learn all I can in these areas.

I provide a safe, affirming space for folks experiencing trauma, bipolar, psychosis, depression, identity exploration, and spiritual awakening. My approach is relational, collaborative, and rooted in deep respect for your lived experience. Together, we go beneath the surface, using mind-body awareness and the wisdom held in your nervous system as a doorway to what words alone can’t always reach. We move safely toward what’s been difficult to express, noticing how emotions live in the body and letting that awareness guide the healing, so you can begin to feel lighter and move through life with a greater sense of freedom.

I often say “we” when talking to clients because I’ve lived through many of the circumstances they find themselves in . I know they need information to better understand what they are dealing with . Additionally , I believe they need empathy and patience as they move forward toward the best days of their lives .

I’m known for creating a supportive space where clients don’t have to have everything figured out. I work especially well with people who are used to being capable, independent, and “holding it all together,” but are finding themselves overwhelmed, burned out, disconnected, or unsure of what comes next.

Originally from the East Coast and now in Colorado, I bring a blend of East Coast directness and Colorado’s appreciation for the outdoors, movement, and personal growth. My goal is to help you reconnect with yourself, build a stronger sense of identity, and feel empowered to take on life’s challenges.

With more than 30 years of experience, I've helped individuals navigate anxiety, ADHD, trauma, and life's many transitions with compassion, understanding, and practical support.

I know reaching out for help isn't always easy. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to move toward greater confidence, healing, and peace of mind.

My name is Mark Priday and I have been a professional counselor for more than 25 years. I am very excited to return to private practice. Helping my clients is something I enjoy so much. Professionally I have worked in a variety of settings including hospitals and residential treatment centers. Personally, I have been married for over 36 years and have two grown children with one wonderful grandchild (so far?). I draw on my personal experience often when doing marriage and couples counseling as this is a great resource. I am active in my church community and serve in my congregation's eldership. Thank you for taking a few minutes to view my website and I look forward to meeting you.

I use a collaborative, holistic, and culturally aware approach to support clients in achieving their mental health and personal goals. With an educational background from Tufts University and the University of Denver, I specialize in helping individuals, partners, caregivers, and families navigate life's challenges using evidence-based methods, creating a space for growth and healing for clients of all backgrounds.

Many of the people I work with are high-functioning by every external measure — capable, driven, the one others lean on — while privately carrying anxiety, burnout, shame, or a quiet sense of disconnection from themselves or the people they love. If that's you, you don't need to be told to slow down. You need someone who can help you understand the patterns underneath it and actually change them.

I'm a licensed psychologist with a Ph.D., working with adults and couples. My style is warm and direct: I'll listen closely, and I'll also tell you what I'm seeing. The aim is lasting change — understanding what's been driving the pattern so you can do something different, rather than just managing symptoms.

I graduated from the University of Colorado Colorado Springs (UCCS) with a Masters Degree in Counseling and Human Services in 2017. As an LPC, I have been in private practice since 2020. I primarily work with clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and life stressors and transitions. Before private practice, I worked at an agency on a specialized team providing trauma therapy for adolescents and their families who have experienced complex trauma.
