As a licensed therapist in Colorado, I specialize in working with first responders, dispatch, military service members, veterans, and their families. These professions demand strength, resilience, and the ability to perform under pressure, but the experiences that come with service can also take a significant toll. Whether you're struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, burnout, or difficulty adjusting after critical incidents, therapy can provide a space to process what you've carried alone.
My style is straightforward, practical, and trauma-informed. I integrate EMDR, CBT, and mindfulness-based approaches to help clients process traumatic experiences, reduce symptoms, and reconnect with the parts of life that matter most. I believe therapy should feel like a partnership—not a lecture—and I tailor treatment to fit each individual's goals.
About me
Hello my name is Kimberly S. Roberts, LMSW. I've worked as a social worker/Therapist in many capacities for 34 years. I was born and raised in Iowa where I lived for 50 years until I moved to Colorado in 2017. I graduated with my master's degree in social work from the University of Northern Iowa in 2010. It was then I began working as a LMSW in emergency departments which I continue to do. I received my LCSW certification in 2/2021 and began my journey as a therapist shortly thereafter. I have extensive experience working with trauma of all kinds and utilizing many different types of modalities. I love animals and living in the mountains where nature provides me with therapy. I was a foster child and aged out of the foster care system and am a strong advocate for children. I work with couples and work with children and families working on co-parenting.
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.
My journey into therapy began with a deep curiosity about human resilience and the desire to help others find strength through life's hardest challenges. I'm a firm believer in the powerful role that therapy can play in alleviating distressing symptoms, facilitating positive growth, and increasing functioning in all areas of life. I value clear, open, and direct communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will be an empathetic partner to help you accurately self-reflect. When difficult topics arise, I'll help you deeply understand yourself in the conflict.
Life is filled with many ups, downs, and uncertainties creating overwhelming stress, anxiety, and changes in one's mood. I am here to help you navigate your way through your journey towards healing, and wholeness, and to thrive in life. I offer therapy for those who may be experiencing life changes or transitions, having difficulties in their personal relationships, depression, anxiety, and other challenges that may be affecting their thoughts, mood, and/or quality of life. My experiences have given me the valuable opportunity to work with people from diverse cultural, ethnic, and sexual backgrounds.
My name is Samantha McGirt, and I am a licensed therapist in North Carolina, Georgia, and Colorado. As an integrative therapist, I draw from a variety of evidence-based approaches—including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mind-Body Therapeutic Approaches, and more—to equip my clients with effective coping skills and strategies for lasting change.
I specialize in working with individuals who are experiencing or have experienced trauma, high levels of stress, PTSD, anxiety, mood disorders, workplace challenges, or major life transitions. My client base includes, but is not limited to, First Responders and Medical Professionals, Educators, Women navigating hormonal-based mood disorders or perinatal concerns, Parents, Corporate employees, Military personnel and spouses, as well as anyone seeking support and growth through therapy.
My goal is to create a safe, collaborative space where clients can heal, build resilience, and thrive in life.
My goal is to provide a safe, supportive and culturally sensitive environment where we can explore your concerns, develop goals, discover strengths, and develop coping strategies. The therapeutic relationship can be a vehicle for change; therefore, I am dedicated to providing the best clinical services to meet your needs.
I am a compassionate, grounded, and collaborative therapist who believes in meeting clients where they are and supporting them at a pace that feels safe and manageable.

My style is warm but direct, and I aim to create a space where clients feel understood, supported, and empowered to move toward meaningful and lasting change.
My name is Bonnie. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I've worked with a variety of clients in a variety of situations both inpatient and outpatient. I'm a good listener and believe that most people know themselves better than anyone else. My job is to allow clients to explore all of their options in a safe, comfortable environment. I accept people where they are, not where others think they should be.

I’ve been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 25 years, working with diverse populations. For the past two decades, I’ve focused on veterans and their families, gaining a deep understanding of their unique needs and those of their loved ones. Additionally, I’ve worked with individuals facing chronic health issues, relationship challenges, and trauma, anxiety or depression. Throughout my extensive career, I’ve had the privilege of training in various therapeutic modalities, including Hypnosis, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). I firmly believe that the most effective approach lies in blending these modalities to tailor a treatment plan that best suits your individual needs.
I tend to be very positive and cheerful in general. I have a storied life with many challenges I have overcome to find success in many ways and love helping others overcome and find their own successes. My degrees in philosophy, psychology and social work and part of an art degree inform and influence my work with clients. I am open to working with the approaches and tools that work best for you!
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.

I’m a Colorado native who is most at home on a dirt trail, and firmly believes that nature and community are our best medicine. My journey started internationally, spending years leading gap-year students around the world in places like India and East Africa to help them find their footing in a big world. Now, I bring that same spirit of exploration into the therapy room, helping adolescents and young adults heal from trauma, understand their purpose in an ever-changing and challenging world, and navigate life’s messy transitions. Together, we’ll work to turn your "where do I fit in?" into a confident sense of belonging.
Hi, I'm Chelsea, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a passion for working with individuals navigating anxiety, identity, and life's many transitions. I believe that real, lasting change doesn't come from a technique or a worksheet, it comes from the relationship we build together.
Research consistently shows that the therapeutic relationship is the most powerful predictor of meaningful growth. That's why I'm deeply committed to creating a space where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and never judged. A place where you can show up exactly as you are. Whether you're stepping into something new, feeling stuck in place, or simply trying to find your footing, I'm here to help you navigate every step of the way.
My approach is collaborative at its core. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions, because you are not a one-size-fits-all person. Together, we'll explore what's keeping you stuck, uncover your strengths, and work toward the kind of change that actually lasts at a pace that feels right for you.
If you're ready to take that first step, I'd love to connect.
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 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.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado and Texas and a Licensed Addiction Counselor in Colorado I have made the commitment to help others as they face adversity so as to develop a loving and compassionate relationship with themselves. I bring a wealth of experience and specialized training in addictions and mental health to my practice and there is one common theme I have noticed throughout my career, which is our self-talk. We are our own worst enemies, and this wreaks havoc on our self-esteem.
I am a compassionate, open-minded therapist with six years of clinical experience in Texas and recent practice in Colorado. I specialize in supporting adults through anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges, using a strong foundation in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I provide culturally sensitive, LGBTQIA‑affirming care and strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients are met where they are.

I am a therapist that enjoys using client centered strategies to help clients better understand themselves and how they exist in the world around them. When I look at my journey through life, I have found that some of the greatest changes I have made were through conversations with others who helped me to see the world from a lens of choice. I have learned over the years that choice relates to actions, that in turn influence dynamics of empowerment and advocacy. Empowerment, advocacy, and perseverance are terms easy to grasp by definition, but much more difficult to follow through with in our day to day experiences. I believe that healing and growth really begin to set in when decisions are made to accept the current reality of ones life and then further commit to strategically apply necessary changes. Over time, I have noticed that therapy often can help people (myself included) gain a greater sense of self efficacy and self confidence, especially when we learn how powerful our thoughts and actions can be! In other words, it is ok if there are things happening in our day that we would rather not go through, however we also have a choice in how we respond in that day. I value the importance of a healthy and healing therapeutic relationship! I also value the process of exploring how trust and hope participate towards how we experience the world.
I’m Pedro Zabala III, a licensed professional counselor in Colorado with over 15 years of experience helping individuals navigate emotional challenges, addictive patterns, and major life transitions. My work centers on supporting clients who feel stuck between who they’ve been and who they want to become. I believe every person carries an innate capacity for healing, even when life feels overwhelming or unclear.
I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, OCD, relationship stress, identity exploration, and workplace or career-related challenges. I also specialize in helping clients re-evaluate their relationships with substances and behavioral addictions, approaching this work with compassion and without shame.
My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in your lived experience. I integrate person-centered therapy, motivational interviewing, CBT, DBT, solution-focused strategies, and narrative therapy. Together, we explore your story, build practical skills, and move toward meaningful, sustainable change at a pace that feels right for you.
Hi! I’m Chelsea, I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, & women’s health. Life can certainly be a lot and sometimes we all need a space to process what’s going on without judgment.

Abeke "Kay" Baker, LMFT, is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a 2011 graduate of Mercer University School of Medicine’s Master’s program in Marriage and Family Therapy. With a career in mental health and social services that began at just 14 years old, Abeke brings over 18 years of hands-on experience to her work. She began as a youth counselor with the Red Cross Lock Key Kids safety program and has since served in diverse roles, including Program Director for Howard County Parks and Recreation in Columbia, MD—supporting youth and young adults with developmental disabilities, autism, and maladaptive behaviors—as well as working in inpatient crisis stabilization settings for both adolescents and adults.
Founder of All 1 Family, Inc.
Abeke is the founder of All 1 Family, Inc., a nonprofit community mental health organization based in Atlanta, GA. The organization is dedicated to supporting the mental wellness of LGBTQ+ individuals—especially people of color—by offering a safe, affirming space for clients to explore their identities and experiences with the support of culturally competent therapists. All 1 Family provides low-cost counseling services, including individual, family, group, and couples therapy. The clinicians—many of whom identify as LGBTQ+ or allies of color—bring lived experience and deep empathy to their work.
Founder’s Statement
“While working across inpatient and community-based mental health settings—providing crisis intervention, assessments, and psychotherapy—I noticed a troubling pattern: many LGBTQ+ individuals were seeking support but struggled to find providers who were affirming, empathetic, and nonjudgmental. This gap often led individuals to delay or forgo much-needed care. All 1 Family was born from the belief that everyone deserves a safe space to be seen, heard, and supported.”
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in substance abuse. For the past three years, I have helped adult individuals heal from mental health and substance abuse issues, utilizing a multifaceted approach to have therapy meet your individual needs. I have training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Addictions Counseling, and trauma. I have experience in depression, anxiety, addictions, relationship conflicts, trauma, and abuse. I see therapy as a collaborative process to guide you to greater self-awareness, trust, and sense of meaning. My approach focuses on self-love, learning how to heal through traumatic and difficult experiences to find strength and resilience. I use an interpersonal, non-judgmental approach to provide you with the foundation to create a stable and sustainable life. My goal is to help empower you to manage difficult emotions, find purpose and passion, in order for you to live a life aligned with your personal goals. If you are feeling stuck in your relationship, in your interpersonal life, let’s work together to help you heal and find the answers you are searching for.
Stepping into counseling is a second career for me. Before this work, I spent many years as an accountant, but I found myself wanting deeper, more meaningful connection with people. That desire to sit with others in their real, human experiences is what led me to become a counselor.
I’ve personally navigated many of the same challenges that bring people into therapy. This doesn’t make me an expert in anyone else’s life—it simply means I understand, on a human level, how vulnerable it can feel to open up, and how much courage it takes to work toward change. I believe change is a gradual process, and each person moves at the pace and in the way that fits them best. My role is to offer empathy, support, and a space where your experiences are met with respect and understanding.

Hello! I’m LuAnn, a licensed clinical social worker and Grow therapist based in Colorado. If you’re reading this, you’re likely looking for professional support, and I’m glad you’re here.
A little about me: I am a neurodivergent female originally from the Southeast Coast, though I’ve called the Colorado mountains home for nearly twenty years. I’ve been in the mental health field for over 30 years, working with people of all ages, backgrounds, and walks of life.
I tend to work best with those who prefer an informal, authentic connection and can appreciate a bit of humor along the way.
When I’m not in session, my husband and I run a small sanctuary for special-needs cats.
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 clinician who is dedicated to providing compassionate and effective care to diverse populations. I challenge clients to consider new perspectives that encourage introspection and promote personal growth. It is important that I meet my clients with an outlook of empathy, curiosity, and cultural competence, while cultivating an atmosphere of advocacy, collaboration, and empowerment. I am also a huge proponent of incorporating mindfulness, movement and nature into therapy to enhance the connection between the mind and body and our environment. My intention is to motivate you to achieve your goals and support you in discovering and loving your authentic self.
I am a dedicated therapist who believes that every individual possesses an innate, unbreakable resilience. My practice is rooted in a client-centered philosophy, meaning I view you as the expert of your own life. Together, we will tap into your internal strengths to navigate life’s challenges, fostering a space where you feel truly seen, heard, and empowered to create lasting change.
I’m a compassionate counseling professional dedicated to helping individuals feel understood, supported, and empowered as they navigate life’s challenges. I believe that meaningful change begins in a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can speak openly and explore your thoughts and emotions without fear. My role is to walk alongside you in that process, offering guidance, insight, and practical tools that support your growth.
My approach is collaborative and tailored to each person’s unique experiences, values, and goals. I draw from evidence-based practices while remaining flexible and responsive to what works best for you. Whether you’re facing anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, or simply feeling stuck, I focus on helping you build self-awareness, strengthen coping skills, and develop a clearer sense of direction.
I strive to balance warmth and empathy with honesty and gentle challenge, helping you recognize patterns that may be holding you back while also honoring your strengths. Clients often describe my style as grounded, approachable, and supportive, with a focus on real-life application.
Ultimately, my goal is to help you feel more confident, resilient, and connected—to yourself and to others. I’m committed to creating a space where you feel heard, respected, and capable of meaningful, lasting change.
Hello, I am Stormy
I can help you feel empowered to reach your goals, make changes that you want in your life, recover from trauma, anxiety, and depression, and manage life stress. I use a person-centered approach, which focuses on you as a whole person and the individual needs that you have.
I have been working in community mental health for almost 10 years. I have a Ph.D. in community psychology and am a licensed counselor. I have been practicing counseling since 2016, and I have provided virtual counseling since 2019. I have experience working with adults, children, adolescents, and couples.
Beginning therapy can be overwhelming and scary. I will be here to work with you through those feelings and provide you with an environment that is safe and compassionate.
Life can feel heavy sometimes—and trying to hold it all together gets exhausting. If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break, you’re not alone. I help adults work through anxiety, stress, trauma, and relationship challenges in a way that feels real, supportive, and actually helpful. My approach isn’t one-size-fits-all—we focus on what you need and what works in your day-to-day life. No pressure, no judgment—just a space to process, gain clarity, and move forward. My goal is simple: help you feel more like yourself again, but stronger, more confident, and in control.
As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I’m passionate about helping individuals, couples, and families strengthen their relationships and navigate life’s challenges with confidence. I believe that healing and growth occur through connection, and I strive to create a safe and supportive space where every voice matters. My approach integrates Gottman Method Couples Therapy (Level 3 trained), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Family Systems Theory, along with evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness. Whether you’re navigating communication struggles, parenting challenges, or major life transitions, my goal is to empower you to build trust, deepen emotional bonds, and foster lasting harmony in your relationships. Together, we can turn challenges into opportunities for growth and transformation.
For more than twenty years, I've sat with people at the edge of what they thought their lives could be — helping them break free from anxiety, depression, trauma, and the relationships and transitions that keep them circling the same painful ground. What I've learned in all those years is this: you are not broken. You are, more often than not, simply disconnected — from your own knowing, from what matters, from the quiet intelligence that has been trying to reach you all along.
My work weaves the science of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with the ancient wisdom of Vedanta and mindfulness — traditions that have mapped the human heart for millennia. Together, they offer more than symptom relief. They offer a homecoming.
But there is a deeper current running beneath everything I do. My private practice includes shamanic work, animal communication, and soul-level intuitive channeling — ways of listening that reach beyond words, beyond technique, into the territory where real transformation lives. Clients often tell me they feel seen in a way they've never experienced: not just heard, but known.
This is not therapy as maintenance. This is therapy as awakening.
When you work with me, you get a guide who is fully present, deeply attuned, and grounded in something far older and larger than any single method — someone who trusts that your life is trying to become something, and knows how to help it get there.
Ready to stop coping and start living?
Let's talk.
In my practice, I utilize an integrative approach that draws from a variety of evidence-based modalities. I believe that no single therapeutic method works for everyone, which is why I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each individual I work with. My toolkit includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps clients identify and change negative thought patterns; Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which focuses on building skills for emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness; Person-Centered therapy, which emphasizes empathy and unconditional positive regard; Solution-Focused therapy, which concentrates on finding practical solutions to present challenges; EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), which is particularly effective for trauma processing; and Psychoeducation, which empowers clients with knowledge about their conditions and coping strategies.
