Brian Espe
Hi! I'm Brian and I'm a therapist based in Colorado. I've dedicated the last decade of my life serving people in need of support to overcome a variety of issues. I care about the people I work with dearly, and this drives me to provide them with the best mental health services possible every time they show up (and sometimes when they don't). I have extensive training and experience using a variety of therapeutic modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy, but I prioritize the therapeutic relationship above all else. I specialize in adolescent issues, depression, anxiety, anger management, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and men's issues. I'm a fully licensed clinical social worker in North Carolina, New Hampshire, and Colorado, and have a sliding scale for services because I believe everyone should have access to therapy regardless of their financial situation. If you would like to make changes in your life, or would just like to talk through something, please feel free to reach out.
I can’t lift weights or do exercises for you, but I can help you develop exercises for your mind so you can strengthen your emotional fitness.
