Hello! Thank you for your interest. My name is Chandra and I specialize in play therapy for children, parenting support, and relationship based therapy for adults. Welcome to my practice!
My inspiration as a counselor is to help people connect with their own wisdom and to learn how gentle, open, respectful curiosity can help them manage stress and create more meaning and authentic relationships with themselves, their loved ones, and others.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Synergetic Play Therapist, I have a masters in counseling psychology, specialized training in play therapy, and further training in mindfulness, managing states of stress, parenting, and child development.
Two personal virtues I value greatly are learning and curiosity. I will bring these two attitudes to the therapy room and with you to ensure that we develop concepts and theory that fits your experiences. I am currently completing my PhD in Counselor Education with my dissertation focusing on neuroscience-informed treatment. Our internal signals are as powerful as our external reactions. Together, we can use these techniques to quantify treatment!
I became a licensed professional counselor because I am passionate about helping adults who have the desire to have balance in their life.
Dealing with life challenges is overwhelming. And sometimes it is difficult to get back on track especially when you find yourself short of your expectations. The influence of culture, society and technology can create a false sense of personal inadequacy.
“How we relate to whatever we're experiencing is even more important than the experience itself " -Bruce Tift
I believe we all have a natural impulse towards evolution and health. Through training and discipline we can greatly accelerate this process.
Survival strategies needed in childhood, arising from our intelligence, are no longer appropriate and can cause unnecessary suffering. These outdated approaches are primarily unconscious. I provide a safe non judgmental space to get to know your patterns with an attitude of kindness. This awareness can give you the freedom to choose the direction you want instead of being driven by historical conditioning.
For over 10 years, I've had the opportunity to support people through some of life's hardest moments. My journey has taken me from working with youth in residential treatment to helping families involved in foster care, adoption, and divorce, as well as individuals involved in the justice system. I also spent time working at an eating disorder and substance use treatment center before becoming a high school counselor, where I currently work. Throughout every role, one thing has stayed the same; I genuinely love helping people and have always been passionate about mental health.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Colorado
Searching for therapists in Colorado means choosing from a wide range of licensed therapists across urban, suburban, and rural areas. Your options may vary depending on where you live, what kind of support you want, and whether you prefer in-person or virtual care. If you’re looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, or life transitions, start by looking for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Location and scheduling matter when comparing Colorado therapists. Someone in Denver may have access to many nearby offices, while someone in Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, or a mountain or rural community may want to include virtual sessions in their search. Some people prefer meeting in a therapist’s office, while others choose virtual appointments for more flexibility. As you narrow your options, review whether each therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand communication style, session structure, and what to expect in the first appointment.
The cost of therapy in Colorado can be a significant investment 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 by verifying your insurance, showing estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and connecting you with licensed therapists who are accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage for your location and plan as you search — making it easier to find a therapist who matches your needs, accepts your insurance, and has availability.
