Therapists in Mountain View, CO

As a person passionate about holistic health and well-being, I appreciate and value when the mind and body are in harmony. I currently hold two master’s degrees and two professional licenses. I am a Physician Assistant, with over 30 years of experience in pediatric and adolescent patients. I am a licensed professional counselor candidate, who graduated from Colorado Christian University. When working with clients, I listen well. I use a person-centered, warm, and understanding approach, as well as integrative systems of counseling. I have worked with diverse people of all ages and walks of life. Supporting your goals is my priority.

Starting an inner journey on a path to self-healing and understanding can seem like a daunting task. It can be confusing, often goes against logic, and opens us up to the very things that caused us to retreat from a full life in the first place. I understand the trepidation that comes from starting on such a journey and the various obstacles that arise during this exploration. This journey does not have to be taken alone.

Whatever your goals might be, being in therapy forever is likely not one of them! As an experienced therapist, with a directive and compassionate style, we will work together so that you can get the most out of your time in therapy. I view my clients as individuals and not a number or a diagnosis, each with a unique set of circumstances and challenges. Using an evidence based foundation, I tailor my approach to these specific needs and identities. I enjoy working with individuals who are ready to move past trauma, grief, mood disorders or relationship issues in a collaborative and pragmatic process.

I provide psychotherapy for individuals with various difficulties in living, using techniques that are supported by evidence. Psychotherapy can help build your coping skills for now and for your future. In addition to working with diverse individuals from across the lifespan, my work focuses on those with chronic medical conditions. I work best with individuals who are looking to develop or refine coping skills and relaxation techniques as well as those who are looking to develop insight into their difficulties.

Are you feeling stressed, sad, in pain, anxious…or all of the above? Do you think you "should" feel happy, but you don't--and you're not sure why or what to do about it? Or maybe you're grieving a loss or a trauma & feeling lost yourself. No matter what you're facing, I'm here to help!! Since 2007, I've counseled diverse people from all walks of life. I use empathy, honesty, humor, & compassion in all my work. Combined with your innate wisdom & your courage in starting this process, we'll develop a safe, supportive therapeutic alliance that allows you to heal your past & live a happier, healthier, & brighter present & future.

Coming to that place in our lives where we realize we need help from beyond ourselves brings with it feelings of vulnerability and even fear. Caring about ourselves enough to reach out and find the specific help we need is a wise and brave step. Congratulations! You have decided that you are worth entering into the journey towards hope, peace and renewal. Hope, grows in us a desire to overcome our difficulties and challenges. It drives us to persevere in our journey to create the best version of ourselves we can imagine. Whatever your current issue is, I would be honored to be considered for the role of your counselor/companion.

I am dedicated to providing a safe and supportive environment for my clients. I’m passionate about offering culturally sensitive and affirming care to all, recognizing the unique experiences and backgrounds that each person brings. My mission is helping clients navigate life's challenges, reduce suffering, and achieve personal growth and resilience. I believe in the power of a therapeutic relationship grounded in trust, empathy, and non-judgmental support.

Whether you desire to prepare for marriage, strengthen your marriage or work on individual issues, I can assist you with reaching your goals. I am a Board Certified, Licensed Professional Counselor as well as a former pastor with over 20 years of ministry and counseling experience.

I love working with individuals and couples who are ready to do the work to make real, lasting, and meaningful changes in their lives to meet the goals they have. Helping others challenge themselves to grow and improve their relationship with themselves and others is a great privilege for me, and the counseling profession is one of which I am truly grateful to be a part.

I want to help bring authenticity and change to your life the way you want it to. I'm Nick (they/them), and I’m dual licensed in two states working with FL and CO clients. I work with queer issues and gender exploration/transition, codependency and relationship problems, anxiety disorders, neurodivergence, chronic illness, trauma, and grief/loss. I also work with non-monogamous/poly clients. I’m here to provide a safe and respectful place for you to be seen and heard. You're not alone and you don’t have to keep telling yourself everything is “fine” or normal in your life - let's find a better "normal" for you to live.

Changes in life can cause feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, insecurity, and lack of direction. They may create a struggle within your personal identity as you move through life and have new experiences. Despite these challenges, you are trying your best to keep your head above water. But there's a feeling in you that wants more from life. You want to connect with others, develop deep and lasting relationships, form a stronger sense of self, and be confident in who you are. You want to feel empowered - to feel strong, self-reliant, and in control of your life!

I am a Sexual Recovery Therapist (SRT) with specialization in sexual addictions and couples/marriages. I also work extensively with teens struggling with sexual compulsivity issues. My clients learn to replace destructive behaviors and avoidance of intimacies through healthy and meaningful interactions. As a pastor for three decades, I also have a passionate desire to assist pastors and their spouses. Pastors face some unique challenges in maintaining sexual purity and having healthy marriages. I offer them a safe, confidential, and proven place to find solutions.

It is vulnerable to be looking for help. This is especially true when your life is constantly changing and you are being overwhelmed by both the choices and expectations you have for the future. It is common in life to feel stuck. You know you are stuck when you feel like you never meet the hopes you have for yourself, are deeply burdened by the fear of making the wrong decision in life, and are exhausted by the expectations of others. You are trying to keep it together, your job, kids, and social life, but it's just not working.

Do you scroll through your social media and wonder why you aren’t living your “best life”? You might say, “why does it feel like everyone else has their sh*t together and here I am, struggling to 'adult' on a good day?" Do you feel like you’ve lost your chance to live the life you always thought you'd have? Maybe you’ve achieved success, but are drowning in keeping up with your own unrelenting standards. You're exhausted from performing and disappointed that you always have to miss out. You know there is more to life than your job, but you can't seem to find that work/life balance. Life has become about keeping up versus living.

Our culture can place extreme and undue pressure on us to perform at extremely high levels, whether in our jobs, our relationships, or our families. Many times these expectations require us to ignore the limitations of being human, and as a result, we live with a persistent fear of not being enough. Relearning how to work with our limitations, rather than ignoring them, is the path to finding our happiness and fulfillment, yet requires us to address courageously much of what we have been taught and believed about ourselves.
