I have been a therapist for over a decade, supporting various client types. I have a Master's Degree from Colorado Christian University, and enjoy working with people from various backgrounds. I am EMDR trained, and also enjoy working with various other modalities including IFS parts work and Somatic techniques.
It is an honor for me to work with people who have courage to reach out for support. My service is really unique because we offer, besides in person and virtual counseling, my herd of 6 equines to support you in finding peace of mind and quality of life . I specialize in a number of evidence-based psychotherapeutic techniques .
Hi! I'm a Master's level licensed psychotherapist with almost 40 years of experience. I'm invested in your best outcomes, your emotional growth and success through this process. I work from a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach, pulling in mindful awareness work for clarity and creative skill-set development. We'll gently explore your family of origin, your current sense of self and related topics. We'll build a therapeutic plan that fits for what you're looking for.
Healing isn't about forgetting the past. It's about changing the way it affects your present. Whether you're working through anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorder recovery, or difficult life transitions, therapy can help you better understand the patterns that have been keeping you stuck while creating healthier ways to move forward.
With nearly a decade of experience working with adults, I provide a warm, collaborative, and supportive space where you can feel understood without judgment. My goal is to help you make sense of what's contributing to your current challenges, build on your existing strengths, and develop practical tools that support meaningful, lasting change. Whether you're navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, eating disorders, grief, ADHD, or relationship concerns, we'll work together to help you feel more grounded, confident, and connected to yourself.
I am a psychologist who specializes in the treatment of trauma-related disorders and sexual functioning. I have received specialized training in a variety of treatment modalities, including EMDR, Prolonged Exposure, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I have also completed specialized certification in the area of sex therapy to address difficulties in sexual function and its impact on other areas of your life.
I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner who works from the belief that people are not broken—and that many of the struggles we call “mental illness” make sense when we look at trauma, context, and lived experience. I’m especially attuned to the ways mental health systems, stigma, and labels can unintentionally cause harm, and I aim to practice in a way that feels respectful, collaborative, and deeply human.
My approach is unconventional and trauma-informed, influenced by perspectives like those of Gabor Maté, which emphasize compassion, curiosity, and understanding symptoms as meaningful responses rather than defects. I do not believe in rushing to pathologize the human experience. As Joni Mitchell once reflected about depression, sometimes what we’re feeling is not an illness to be fixed, but a signal—an honest response to pain, loss, or a world that has not been kind.
Hello! My name is Jenny Johnson and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) in Colorado Springs. I have been in the counseling field for 8 years, and I have worked with people who struggle with substance use problems, or who have loved ones that are struggling with substance use, people who battle with mental and emotional turmoil, and trauma survivors.
I have over 30 years of direct clinical experience. I work remotely at this time, and blend cognitive behavioral techniques with psychodynamic techniques, including dream work (if interested). I work with adults with a wide range of challenges. I cannot make your anxiety disappear; however, I can help you change your relationship to it.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I provide a warm, supportive space where children, adolescents, and their families feel heard and empowered. I earned my Master of Social Work from Florida Atlantic University and have experience providing therapy in school, community mental health, foster care, and telehealth settings. I work with children and teens experiencing anxiety, depression, behavioral and academic concerns, emotional regulation difficulties, family conflict, and peer relationship challenges.
My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Through creative telehealth sessions using interactive activities, screen sharing, and games, I help children build coping skills, confidence, and resilience in an engaging way. I also partner closely with parents and caregivers to support lasting progress at home and at school while fostering a trusting environment where children feel safe expressing themselves within the boundaries of confidentiality.

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.
