Hi, I am Stephanie, and I'm glad you have reached out for counseling! That is the first and sometimes hardest step. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia and Colorado, with a Master's in Professional Counseling, and I practice in both states.
I am a clinician who believes that you are the most knowledgeable when it comes to your experience. I use skills building and resource tools to support you in claiming what you need from therapy. My approach combines tangible tools, affirming and safe practices, as well as somatic exercises to navigate what is bringing you into therapy. I blend my training in Contemplative Psychotherapy and Buddhist Psychology with my passion for Loving-Kindness Anger Practices and Awareness in order to create a therapeutic space that can hold the vastness of your lived experience, with endless abundance to hold all that arises in session.
The past is a good place to visit but certainly not a place to stay
I have been a practicing clinical social worker since 1995. During my graduate school training, I learned a lesson about clinical work with children, teens, and adults that psychiatrist Dr. Meeks reinforced in his book "The Fragile Alliance." The lesson was about the gift of trust that people give their therapist and how we, as clinicians, must honor and keep that trust to strengthen the fragile alliance of therapy. I have cherished this gift of trust each time it has been offered by someone in my practice.

I am an integration and trauma specialist, harm reductionist, licensed marriage and family therapist, and licensed professional clinical counselor in the states of California and Colorado. I have been working in the helping professions for over 2 decades. I obtained a B.A. in Business Administration, with an emphasis on Human Resources from Intercontinental University in 2004, and a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from Argosy University in 2017. I focus on integrating daily life experiences to develop self-determination and support you to build the life you want to live. My experience as a therapist ranges from mood disorders, eating disorders, and substance use. I have worked with adolescents and adults in various settings including Residential Treatment Programs (RTC), Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP), Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) and outpatient.
I am a transpersonal psychotherapist, life coach, healer, and artist with extensive experience in trauma/PTSD and dual-diagnosis work (substance and disordered eating issues). My approach recognizes that challenges often stem from trauma, and lasting recovery requires working with all facets of your being. I offer unique, holistic paths to healing, including both online sessions and in-person work at my retreat center for those who want to connect with nature. I provide compassionate guidance and effective tools to help you unlock deeper self-discovery and lasting growth.

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.
