I was drawn to this work because I know the impact that support from others can have. At different points in my life, I have benefited from people who helped me face challenges, understand myself more clearly, and move through difficult seasons with more honesty and direction. Those experiences taught me how powerful it can be to have someone help you feel less alone while also encouraging growth, accountability, and change. That shaped my desire to offer the same kind of support to others.

As a mature therapist, I bring together advanced clinical training, accomplished therapeutic skills, and extensive lived experience to support adults of all ages but specifically those who are 40 and older facing anxiety, trauma, depression, addiction, grief and major life transitions. I believe meaningful change happens through a collaborative therapeutic relationship built on trust, respect, and a genuine understanding of each person's unique journey. My approach is practical, trauma-informed, and focused on helping clients regain a sense of control, build resilience, and navigate challenges with greater confidence. Together, we work toward healthy, lasting outcomes while fostering balance among mind, body, and spirit. My goal is to help clients reconnect with their strengths, clarify what matters most, and create a life with greater meaning, purpose, and fulfillment. If you're looking for a therapist who combines professional expertise with real-world understanding, I would be honored to support you in taking the next step forward.

My name is Felicidad; I go by Feliz, but most call me Ms. Christmas :). I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), a licensed addictions counselor (LAC) and more than anything, a compassionate human being who understands that sometimes life has moments that may throw you for a loop. It happens to all of us, and sometimes you just need someone to talk to. You don't have to go it alone.

I am Grant Marylander, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Grief Counselor, and Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional practicing in Boulder, Colorado. My path to this work was not a straight one. I spent more than thirty years as an attorney before a close friend's terminal diagnosis changed everything. Sitting with him at the end of his life, I knew this was where I belonged — not in a courtroom, but in the hardest and most human moments people face. That conviction led me through palliative care, hospice grief counseling, and community mental health before I founded Share Your Grief. I work with two groups of people who, in my experience, often have more in common than they might expect. The first are individuals navigating grief, not only the loss of a loved one, but any loss that has quietly unmade a life: a diagnosis, a divorce, a career, an identity. The second are high-functioning professionals whose outward success masks an internal exhaustion driven by anxiety, perfectionism, and the relentless pressure to be more and do better. What I offer both groups is the same thing: a space where nothing they feel is too much, and a clinically grounded approach that goes beyond surface-level coping to address what is actually underneath. The impact I hope to have is not simply symptom relief. It is transformation — helping clients move from surviving their pain to understanding it, and from understanding it to carrying it with greater ease, self-compassion, and clarity about what they value most. Grief and anxiety have a way of stripping life down to what matters. My job is to help you find your footing in that stripped-down place — and rebuild from there.

You don't have to carry it all alone. What often feels like chronic stress, anxiety, or overwhelm is your nervous system signaling that you've been carrying too much for too long. I help women heal from trauma, calm their nervous systems, and feel more like themselves again. Hi! I’m Leah Swanson, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 10 years of experience in mental health across women's health clinics, schools, and private practice. As a woman, I deeply understand many of the challenges women face, including emotional overwhelm, relationship struggles, perfectionism, self-criticism, divorce and breakups, and career burnout. Many women are hard on themselves, overgive, overthink, and quietly wonder if they are enough. My goal is to help women develop a supportive inner voice, build healthier relationships, and create meaningful careers through nervous system regulation, evidence-based positive psychology, and somatic mind-body therapy.

I chose this line of work to provide others with the skills they need for walking their life path with their heads held high and love in their hearts. At some point we are all given difficult, transformative opportunities. I would be grateful to assist in honoring life's painful experiences and integrating them as they transform you into something greater. As a yoga teacher, therapist, and spiritual seeker who specializes in working with women I use healing modalities that shift the mind, body, and soul. My care will provide a safe space to cultivate an understanding of the symptoms present and how they fit into your life story. I will introduce tools to initially help you alleviate and integrate symptoms, but I hope they're more than that. My goal is for you to gain lifelong skills that leave you feeling empowered when faced with life's twists and turns. Healing is a difficult but beautiful, eye opening journey. I find stimulating the mind, giving the body a voice, and listening to the soul to be the three most important components of healing. My sessions incorporate techniques for relaxing and relating to the body, talk therapy for stimulating the mind, and practices for getting in touch with the soul.

Hi, I’m so glad you’re here! I’m a San Francisco native, a military veteran, and a lifelong art lover who finally found the courage to answer my truest calling during the whirlwind of 2020. I haven’t looked back since. I am deeply passionate about bridging the gaps in mental health care and destigmatizing therapy—because taking care of your mind should be as normal as taking care of your body. When I’m not in the therapist chair, my life is beautifully full. I’m a homeschooling mom to six incredible girls (yes, six!), married to my childhood sweetheart, and a big fan of making meals from scratch and catching a double feature at the drive-in movie theater. My Approach I bring that same blend of heart, dedication, and real-world chaos into my practice. I take a direct, down-to-earth approach, and I love working with people who are truly ready to show up, connect, and do the work. My space is for teens and adults navigating messy transitions, trauma, PTSD/CPTSD, bipolar disorder, and personality disorders. Whether you are running on fumes or struggling with a loud inner critic, my goal is to provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can drop the mask, laugh, cry, and be totally honest. Together, we’ll unpack the heavy stuff so you can finally learn to love, see, and choose yourself.

Hello! My name is Judy Branch, owner of Judy E. Branch Counseling, LLC, in Lone Tree, Colorado. I love helping clients find relief from the curveballs life is sure to throw, by creating a strong therapeutic alliance and listening carefully to correctly understand client perspectives and circumstances. I believe therapy should feel like a safe place to be fully yourself — without judgment, pressure, or having to “have it all figured out.” Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, family conflict, trauma, or self-doubt begin affecting everyday life.

My background in public schools and private practice has allowed me to support clients across many stages of life and experiences. I use a variety of evidence-based approaches and tailor therapy to your individual needs. My goal is to create a supportive, collaborative space where you feel heard and empowered to make changes at your own pace. In addition, I have a passion for those with chronic pain. Chronic pain can be debilitating. It can keep you from reaching your goals, enjoying the things you love, and from the things that you need. Through Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), there can be a way to get your life back. As someone who has also suffered from chronic pain, I know the struggle is real. The pain is real! If you are reading this, you are not ready to give up. It is ok to be skeptical, I get it because I have been there. Call, email, or schedule your first session and take the road towards recovery. All sessions are conducted remotely, allowing you to participate from the comfort and privacy of your own space. In our first session, we’ll talk about what brought you to therapy and what you hope to gain from the process, then work together to create a plan that feels realistic and encouraging. If you’re ready to begin I’d be glad to connect with you.

You may look like you’re holding it all together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, disconnected, or stuck internally. Many of my clients are high-achieving adults, athletes, young professionals, and adolescents navigating anxiety, ADHD, trauma, burnout, addiction recovery, identity shifts, and relationship stress. As a former Division I athlete and immigrant, I understand the pressure of performance, major life transitions, and the challenge of balancing expectations while trying to stay connected to yourself. Therapy with me is honest, collaborative, and focused on meaningful change, not just surface-level coping. I use evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, trauma-informed care, somatic approaches, and relapse prevention strategies to help clients build emotional regulation, healthier patterns, resilience, and long-term healing. I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults from diverse backgrounds and strive to create a space that feels supportive, culturally aware, and judgment-free. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, perfectionism, recovery, trauma, or simply feeling emotionally stuck, we’ll work together to better understand your patterns and create practical, sustainable change. Healing is not about becoming someone different it’s about reconnecting with yourself in a healthier, more grounded way.

I am Colorado's leading expert in work related issues and innovated new tools and concepts for work-related issues affecting mental health. My professional career as a worker peaked in 2022 and I decided I would benefit more by being self-employed instead, as about 10% of US workers currently are. I worked at a variety of inpatient and outpatient substance abuse and mental health units for many years. Working for myself has allowed me to work with clients with less restrictions from management, and I often keep a small caseload because that's my preference. It has also given me time to continue to research and publish work on the subject of working and mental health. I've operated my private practice since 2017 and went full time in 2023.

Hi, my name is Sylvia Eboigbe, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and the owner of Mindful Moments Therapy. I have six years of experience as a mental health therapist and have had the privilege of providing services across multiple states and cities, supporting individuals in a variety of clinical and community settings. Throughout my career, I have worked with diverse populations in school systems, correctional facilities, substance abuse treatment centers, intensive outpatient programs, and on a Native American reservation. These experiences have deepened my understanding of the many ways people navigate life challenges and the importance of culturally responsive, compassionate care. I support adults as they work through life transitions, emotional distress, and relationship challenges with greater self-understanding, balance, and self-compassion. My therapeutic approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), where we explore the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, along with mindfulness-based practices that help you stay grounded and present in the moment. I also incorporate strengths-based therapy, which focuses on identifying and building upon your existing resilience, values, and inner resources. Together, these approaches create a supportive space where you can increase awareness, develop healthier coping strategies, and move toward meaningful and lasting change. My goal is to walk alongside you in a collaborative and supportive way as you build insight, strengthen emotional well-being, and reconnect with your sense of self.

I'm Erik Petersen — a Licensed Professional Counselor, grief specialist, and couples therapist with over 20 years of experience walking with people through the hardest seasons of their lives. I know what it's like to lose a father young. To feel the ground shift beneath you before you were ready. To spend years searching for direction — and for someone steady enough to follow. That kind of loss doesn't just take a person. It takes the roadmap. And without it, you wander. That wandering shaped me. It's why I do this work, and why I do it the way I do. I founded Made Known Counseling because I believe the deepest human need isn't to be fixed — it's to be truly known. Known in the pain, the confusion, the grief that hasn't lifted, the relationship that's quietly unraveling. Known without being rushed toward an answer that isn't ready yet. I work with individuals carrying grief in all its forms — death, divorce, miscarriage, estrangement, infertility, and the losses that don't have a name but still take something from you. I work with couples who love each other but have lost the thread. And I work with men doing the kind of interior work that most rooms don't make space for — the searching, the silence, the long overdue reckoning. My approach is trauma-informed, relationally grounded, and faith-integrated for those who want that. I draw on EMDR, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and the Gottman Method — but what matters more than technique is presence. I practice online across Colorado and in-person near Grand Junction. If something in you says it's time — that's enough to begin. Helping You Mourn. Mend. And Find Meaning.

Frequently asked questions

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across the entire state. If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near your address.

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
