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.

No matter what it is that you are going through, you don’t have to face it alone. I am a licensed therapist and addiction counselor who supports adolescents and adults with challenges related to depression, anxiety, trauma, relationships, self-esteem, belonging, purpose, spirituality, identity (including LGBTQIA2S+ and racial identity), grief, substance use and addiction, suicidal ideation, self-harm, men's issues, young adulthood, and life transitions of all kinds. If this sounds like you, I am here to help you process emotions, loosen conditioned beliefs and habitual patterns, and work toward a more kind, accepting relationship with yourself. As a contemplative psychotherapist, my approach rests on helping you reconnect with your brilliant sanity—or human beings' intrinsic nature of goodness and wisdom that we all lose touch with. Through our work together, I will support you to uncover your wisdom, intuition, and innate capacities for clarity, self-acceptance and self-compassion, and healing. Being human is hard, and just by being the human that you are, you are deserving of your own kindness, love, and care. It would be an honor to walk alongside you on your path toward whatever your heart yearns for most.

I’m Christopher McDonald, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor with extensive experience supporting adults, young adults, and veterans. As an Air Force Reservist, I understand firsthand the unique challenges that military life can bring, including transitions, stress, and service-related trauma. My work spans college counseling, addiction recovery, and community mental health, which allows me to meet clients where they are and provide guidance tailored to their needs. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s difficulties and uncover the strengths they already possess. Whether someone is facing anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, or significant life transitions, I offer a compassionate, judgment-free space where your story matters and your goals guide the work we do together. I believe therapy is most effective when it is collaborative, so I partner with clients to build practical coping skills, increase self-awareness, and develop resilience that lasts beyond our sessions. My approach integrates evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and I also incorporate faith-based guidance when requested. I seek wisdom from my Christian faith and, with consent, sometimes include prayer in sessions to support clients in connecting with their spirituality. Ultimately, my goal is to empower you to make confident decisions, manage stress effectively, and grow into your best self. I take pride in creating a space where clients feel heard, supported, and equipped to face challenges with strength and clarity. Together, we will work toward meaningful, lasting change in your mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

I’m a licensed professional counselor with over 12 years of experience working in crisis response, clinical assessment, and trauma-informed care. I work primarily with adults and adolescents 12+ navigating trauma, anxiety, ADHD, burnout, and major life transitions. My approach is collaborative, structured, and grounded in evidence-based practices, including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). I look forward to working with people on an individual, voluntary basis. I worked for a long time on the involuntary end of treatment and still full heartedly believe in the capacity for change. I believe that the human spirit is intrinsically positive and we are all working towards being the best versions of ourselves with our available means. I applaud anyone reaching out to connect to another person in an attempt to better themselves, welcome you are in the right place. I help clients understand how past experiences and chronic stress continue to influence thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, while building practical skills for emotional regulation and sustainable coping. I place a strong emphasis on pacing, safety, and clarity, especially early in therapy, so clients feel supported while working toward meaningful change. I’m especially well suited to working with individuals who lead active lifestyles and value a therapy process that is goal-oriented, engaged, and applicable to everyday life. My goal is to provide a steady, supportive space where insight leads to action and progress feels both realistic and lasting.

My counseling style is empathic and conversational, grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion. We'll incorporate your experiences, feelings, and values into a meaningful life story. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, narrative, and evidence-based strategies while allowing space for rediscovery, growth, and repair. I specialize in depression, self-esteem, substance use and misuse, men's mental health, and relationship issues. Relationships are often the most important things in our lives, and all treatment holds this at its core. When we pursue change, we strengthen our relationships and become better partners, parents and friends. I strive to meet the client where they're at and tailor the approach based on their needs. My style is empathic and supportive. We will figure out where and how you'd like to make changes, uncover the patterns that have kept you stuck, and do the rewarding work of letting go of the things that aren't working for you anymore.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Addictions Counselor in the state of Colorado. I received my Master's degree in Forensic Psychology from the University of Denver in 2017. After completing my Master’s Degree, I spent almost six years working with criminal justice involved clients - from substance abuse to domestic violence offenders. While I learned a lot doing that work, and it was extremely fulfilling to service victims and offenders, I decided to pursue working for myself within the private practice setting. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral and Dialectical Behavioral techniques in my sessions, as well as being trained in Brainspotting for trauma specific treatment. I strongly believe in the connection between physical health and mental health, and do my best to focus on both aspects with the clients I see. I feel fortunate to be able to hear and share in other's stories and be a part of their journey to wellness.

I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, past trauma, and co-occurring substance use, especially those who want to better understand how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected. I’m particularly well-suited for clients who are motivated for change—even if they’re unsure where to begin—and are open to a collaborative, skills-based approach to therapy. In my practice, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and challenge unhelpful thinking patterns, such as catastrophizing or all-or-nothing thinking, and replace them with more balanced, realistic perspectives. I incorporate techniques like cognitive restructuring, behavioral activation, and practical skill-building to support lasting change. I also utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an evidence-based approach that helps clients process traumatic experiences and reduce the emotional distress tied to those memories. This approach has been especially effective in helping clients experiencing trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and substance use challenges achieve meaningful, lasting relief.

You're exhausted, wondering if anyone is going to reach your teenage son with ADHD. I was that kid and found my way through. Your son is struggling the same way I did. ADHD, too much homework, too little interest, too many people telling him to just try harder. I didn't get real support until the end of high school. Treatment changed the trajectory of my life. I went from community college to the University of Florida, then to a Master of Social Work from Florida State. My bachelor's was in Education Sciences with a specialization in Educational Psychology, which means I understand how ADHD plays out in a classroom, where so much of your son's pain probably lives. School is hard enough for these kids already, which is why I see clients in the evenings and on weekends. Therapy shouldn't add to what school is already taking from him.

I am a trauma-informed therapist who believes meaningful change happens when people feel truly seen, understood, and safe enough to be honest. My work is rooted in the understanding that our thoughts, emotions, nervous system, and relationships are deeply connected—and that healing requires addressing all of them, not just one part. I work with individuals and couples navigating trauma, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, relationship distress, and life transitions. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed, stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand, or disconnected from themselves or the people they love. Some are carrying the impact of past experiences that still show up in their present, even when they “should be fine by now.” In our work together, I provide a structured yet compassionate space where insight turns into action. I draw from evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, and the Gottman Method, tailoring treatment to each client’s needs and goals. Therapy with me is collaborative, practical, and grounded in real-life application—not just insight, but skills and meaningful change. My goal is to help clients develop emotional regulation, clarity, and confidence—so they can respond rather than react, communicate more effectively, and feel more secure in themselves and their relationships. Over time, clients often report feeling less controlled by anxiety or past experiences, more connected to their values, and better equipped to build the life and relationships they want. Healing is not about becoming someone new, it’s about reclaiming parts of yourself that were lost, protected, or silenced along the way. I’m here to walk alongside you in that process.

Hi, I’m Josh Burke, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing therapy across, Colorado, New York and Vermont. I’ve spent over 12 years working with individuals navigating a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, and major life transitions. I understand that reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable. Because of that, I place a strong emphasis on building a genuine, trusting relationship from the start—one where you feel supported, understood, and able to be honest about what you’re going through. My approach is both relational and goal-oriented. I primarily use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), which means we won’t just talk about what’s wrong—we’ll also focus on what matters to you and how to move toward it in practical, meaningful ways. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or navigating a significant transition, our work will center on helping you better understand your experience, develop new ways of responding to stress, and take steps toward the life you want to live. I tailor therapy to each person, recognizing that no two paths forward look the same. I believe change is possible—even when things feel difficult—and I aim to walk alongside you in a way that feels collaborative, grounded, and forward-moving.

I work with clients who want to better understand themselves, manage overwhelming emotions, and develop practical strategies for coping and growth. My approach is collaborative and tailored to each person’s experiences. I prioritize creating a safe, nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore feelings at their own pace. Many of the people I work with feel stuck or uncertain about how past experiences affect their present lives.

I am drawn to clients who are curious about their inner world and ready to take steps toward meaningful change, even when it feels challenging. My goal is to walk alongside each client with warmth, respect, and understanding, empowering them to feel more confident in themselves and their choices. Therapy is a journey, and I’m honored to guide clients as they explore, heal, and grow.

Hi, I’m Sarah! I'm a licensed therapist who offers online therapy for adults in Ohio and Colorado. Many of the people I work with are doing their best — but feel stretched thin, stuck in the same patterns, and unsure of how to calm the noise in their mind and body. In therapy, we’ll gently take a look at what’s going on beneath your patterns — with your stress response, thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and the experiences that shaped them. My style is practical and supportive. I use evidence-based approaches like CBT and mindfulness, and I also bring in body-based and energy-psychology tools when they’re helpful — so we’re not only talking about what’s hard, we’re building skills that help you actually feel different over time. I aim to create a space that feels safe, warm, and grounded — where you can understand yourself with more compassion and feel empowered to move toward the life and relationships you most want. Please note: I do not currently provide substance abuse treatment or services for clients actively struggling with substance use. If substance use is your primary concern, I encourage you to seek support from a provider who specializes in addiction and recovery. I currently offer remote individual therapy sessions for adults only. I do not provide couples therapy through my therapy practice or through Grow. I do, however, work with couples separately through my coaching practice, which is outside of Grow Therapy. You can learn more here: https://sarahschweppe.com/couples-coaching

My therapeutic style is straightforward, and I invite open communication about clients’ experiences in therapy throughout the process. People would likely describe me as direct and straight to the point. Most often, I practice through the lenses of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), attachment theory, and existential theory. How I help clients reach goals: I believe clients are capable of developing their own solutions, and that a collaborative therapeutic relationship can support meaningful progress toward the life they want. I hope that by working together, we can organize and achieve your goals, whatever they may be. If you're unsure of what direction you want to head, we can work on that together, too. My journey to becoming a provider: I am a prior service turned mental health professional. I served in the U.S. Army as a combat medic from 2009 to 2012, with one deployment to Iraq. After my service, I switched over to mental health, starting with working in an inpatient mental health facility. I have since worked at a substance use clinic, a private practice, a team practice, and taught psychoeducational classes alongside DHS. I hold two master’s degrees, in addition to a bachelor’s and an associate's degree. I bring specialized knowledge and clinical focus in trauma, sexual concerns, and disordered eating.

At the heart of my practice is the belief that you possess an incredible capacity for deep growth and healing. I provide a compassionate and collaborative space where you can explore the challenges that stem from anxiety, stress, trauma, and more. It's common to feel like something's missing, or that you're not quite good enough – constantly thinking happiness depends on getting "this" or waiting for "that." But this kind of thinking often leaves us on the receiving end of life, instead of actively shaping it.

I’m Chad Stiles, PhD, LMFT, and I provide trauma-informed therapy for individuals, couples, and families who feel stuck in painful patterns and want a more grounded way forward. Many of the people I work with are carrying the impact of trauma, relationship conflict, emotional disconnection, anxiety, depression, betrayal, or life transitions that have started to affect how they see themselves and connect with others. My approach is collaborative, practical, and compassionate. I draw from Solution-Focused Brief Therapy and IFS-informed parts work to help clients identify what is already working, understand the protective patterns that may be keeping them stuck, and build realistic steps toward change. I believe clients are the experts in their own lives, and therapy works best when we slow things down enough to notice strengths, patterns, emotions, and possibilities that may have been hard to see before. In sessions, I aim to create a space where you can be honest without feeling judged, pressured, or blamed. Whether you are seeking support individually or as part of a relationship, my goal is to help you move toward more clarity, emotional safety, connection, and confidence in your next steps.

I am a therapist who works with adolescents, teens, and adults across all stages of life. I believe that every individual has a unique story, which is why I take an eclectic approach to therapy—drawing from a variety of evidence-based modalities to meet each client's specific needs rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach. My practice is grounded in authenticity, empathy, and unconditional positive regard. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to explore their challenges and strengths. I work with individuals facing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, attachment issues, codependency, emotional regulation challenges, trauma recovery and personal growth goals. Together, we collaborate to develop insight, build resilience, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change that aligns with each client's values and goals.

I’m Niambi Bloom, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, milspouse, mom of two, and dog mom. I earned my BA in Psychology from New York University and went on to complete my MSSW at Columbia University, focusing on Clinical Social Work in Health, Mental Health, and Disabilities. Over the years, I’ve worked in crisis settings, supported families as a birth doula, and taught cultural competency to future providers. My journey to becoming a therapist began with curiosity about the human mind and passion for helping others. Working in crisis settings, as a birth doula, and teaching cultural competency, I noticed pregnant and postpartum moms often lack needed mental health support. This fueled my commitment to creating a safe space for this community.

This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation.
