My name is Pedro Zabala III, and I am a licensed professional counselor in Colorado with over 15 years of experience helping individuals through various mental health challenges.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and holistic, grounded in the belief that we all possess the inner strength and wisdom to overcome life’s challenges. I see my role as a guide, helping you uncover your resilience and empowering you to create lasting change.
I specialize in assisting clients in re-evaluating their relationships with substances and behavioral addictions, fostering self-awareness, and supporting their journey toward commitment and change. I also work with individuals facing:
• Anxiety Disorders: Generalized anxiety, social anxiety, and panic disorder.
• Depression: Major depressive disorder and persistent depressive disorder.
• Relationship Challenges: Improving communication and understanding.
• Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): Recovering from trauma and building resilience.
• Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD): Addressing intrusive thoughts and compulsions.
• Adjustment Disorders: Navigating life transitions and stress.
Additionally, I assist clients in managing stress, self-esteem challenges, identity exploration, and workplace issues. Together, we will develop therapy goals tailored to your strengths and needs, integrating evidence-based practices such as person-centered care, motivational interviewing, CBT, DBT, solution-focused strategies, and narrative therapy.
I hold a bachelor’s degree from Metropolitan State University and a graduate degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Northern Colorado. My diverse experience—spanning addiction recovery, family counseling, career guidance, and crisis intervention—enables me to provide comprehensive care.
