Hi, I’m Taciana, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 11 years of experience supporting adolescents and adults through life transitions, emotional challenges, and difficult circumstances. I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely heard, understood, and respected, and I take a collaborative, strengths-based approach that meets you where you are. My practice integrates evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT-informed strategies, compassion-focused therapy, person-centered therapy, and culturally responsive care. I’m especially passionate about helping clients better understand themselves, navigate intense emotions, reduce self-criticism, and develop practical tools for creating meaningful change. I see therapy as a space where we can honor both the challenges you’ve experienced and the strengths that have helped you get this far.

I am dedicated to helping people find solutions in a direct and focused manner. I see therapy as a collaborative process where we work together as partners. I take a clear and caring approach.. Your well-being is my ultimate concem. I have been practicing for over 30 years and have masters and doctoral degrees. I have written articles and appeared on both radio and TV.. I enjoy travel, exercise, hiking, camping, and activities with family and friends.

I’m a warm, engaged therapist who genuinely enjoys working with the complicated stuff—the patterns that don’t make sense, the coping strategies that worked until they didn’t, and the parts of yourself you might not quite know what to do with. My approach is curious, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I’m an active participant in therapy: I’ll ask questions, help you make connections, offer another perspective when it might be useful, and gently challenge you when we’ve built the trust to do that. You don’t need to have everything figured out before you walk in, and there will probably be some dry humor along the way.

I’m Michael Heckendorn, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado and a National Certified Counselor. I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults, and new fathers. Many of the young adults I work with are trying to understand who they are, what they want to do with their lives, or how to manage the expectations and uncertainty that come with adulthood.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with adults and mature teens navigating stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, burnout, and major life transitions. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable individuals who appear to be functioning well on the outside while internally feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck, or unsure why life no longer feels like theirs. My approach is practical, collaborative, and grounded. Therapy is a space to slow down, think more clearly, and better understand the patterns driving stress, overthinking, emotional disconnection, and relationship struggles. Together, we work toward meaningful changes that feel sustainable in everyday life. I use structured, evidence-based approaches including CBT, ACT, DBT, mindfulness-based strategies, and attachment-focused work to help clients respond more effectively to stress, relationships, and internal pressure. Before becoming a therapist, I spent more than 20 years in leadership and project-based roles across multiple industries and cultures, including over a decade working throughout Latin America. I speak Spanish fluently, and that experience continues to shape how I connect with clients navigating pressure, responsibility, identity shifts, and relationship stress. My goal is to help you feel more steady, self-aware, confident, and connected in your everyday life and relationships.

Hi, I’m Aaron. I specialize in helping adults ages 18–64 who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or anxious about the future.

For more than a decade, I have had the privilege of walking alongside people as they navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic illness, chronic pain, and life's unexpected challenges.

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.

Do you find yourself overthinking everything, especially your relationships, conversations, or whether you’ve disappointed someone? Maybe you’re the person everyone depends on, yet you’re quietly overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally exhausted. You may have a hard time setting boundaries, constantly put other people’s needs ahead of your own, or find yourself seeking reassurance even when part of you knows everything is probably okay. Hi, I’m Ash. I’m a licensed therapist providing virtual therapy to adults in Massachusetts, Virginia, and Colorado. I specialize in working with people who struggle with anxiety, relationship patterns, low self-confidence, people-pleasing, perfectionism, emotional overwhelm, and difficulty putting themselves first. Therapy with me is more than having a place to vent. I want to help you understand why these patterns keep happening and, more importantly, learn how to change them. Together, we’ll identify the thoughts, behaviors, relationship dynamics, and emotional patterns that are keeping you stuck. We’ll work on practical ways to manage anxiety, communicate more effectively, set boundaries without drowning in guilt, build confidence in your own decisions, and stop allowing fear or other people’s reactions to determine your choices. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and active. I’ll listen and validate your experiences, but I’m not a therapist who simply nods for 50 minutes. I’ll ask questions, offer honest feedback, gently challenge patterns that may no longer be serving you, and give you practical strategies to use outside of therapy. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. You just need to be willing to get curious about yourself and begin making changes. My goal is to help you feel more confident, grounded, and in control of your life and eventually trust yourself enough that you don’t need therapy to do it.

As a transpersonal therapist, I view therapy as a holistic healing container, in which I am a fellow traveler on the path to wholeness.

I have been on a personal journey of self-discovery and awakening for over a decade through meditation, yoga, practicing massage therapy for 5+ years, deepening an understanding of healing through the body mind spirit connection. I arrived in the field of counseling as a culmination of my personal journey, from a desire to serve others on the path to healing and integration.

Hi, I'm Taylor. I'm so glad you're here. It’s no small thing making the decision to sign up to talk to a stranger about the overwhelming and very often draining circumstances that you’re in. I want to highlight how much being on this site, and looking through profiles is such a significant step toward your mental health goals. Anxiety and improving self image are at the core of my work. I focus on helping clients develop flexible thinking and self-compassion — practical tools that help you step away from self-criticism and patterns that keep life feeling heavy. The goal of this work isn't about becoming a perfect version of yourself. It's about learning to navigate life's challenges with greater flexibility, confidence, and self-understanding.

Hi, I'm Shelly — a licensed professional counselor with a passion for helping people find their footing when life feels overwhelming. My journey in mental health began decades ago in music therapy, working in psychiatric settings where I first witnessed the remarkable capacity people have to heal when given the right support and a safe space. That foundation shapes the way I work to this day — with attunement, creativity, and a deep belief in each person's capacity to heal. I specialize in anxiety, OCD, trauma, and addiction recovery, using evidence-based approaches including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients build real, lasting skills rather than just temporary relief. I have a particular heart for neurodivergent individuals — including those with ADHD and autism — who may have spent years feeling misunderstood. You do fit — sometimes it just takes the right space to discover that. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. Good therapy isn't just about insight — it's about leaving each session with something you can actually use. I'll meet you where you are, move at a pace that feels right, and work hard to make sure our time together is meaningful. For clients who desire it, I welcome the integration of faith and spirituality into our work. I believe healing touches the whole person — mind, heart, and spirit — and that for many people, faith isn't separate from their healing but central to it. I hold that with care and without pressure. Whether you're navigating a specific struggle or carrying a weight you've held for too long, you don't have to do it alone. Reaching out is the hardest step — and I'm really glad you're here. I'd love the opportunity to connect.

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.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes therapy works best when it's collaborative, honest, and centered on your goals. I take a client-centered approach, working to understand your unique experiences while balancing genuine validation with thoughtful challenges that promote growth. Building a strong therapeutic relationship is a priority because meaningful change often starts with trust. I also bring humor into the process when appropriate—therapy can be serious and productive without feeling overly formal or clinical.

I am a bilingual licensed professional counselor and EMDR certified provider in Colorado. My background includes experience working with a variety of mental health conditions, such as mood disorders, personality disorders, trauma disorders, suicidal ideation, anxiety, depression, and psychosis. I have experience supporting survivors of intimate partner violence, human trafficking, migration trauma, war trauma, and cultural challenges. I work primarily with adults navigating trauma and life's challenges who want to understand how past experiences may be affecting their present life, and work to shift the patterns that are contributing to their distress. My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. I aim to create a space that feels grounded, warm, and genuine--where people can slow down, explore themselves on a deeper level, and feel less alone in what they are carrying. I work at a pace that feels safe and manageable to my clients, while building insight and creating meaningful change. I am a calm, curious, open, empathetic, and insight-driven clinician who deeply values and respects the unique needs, qualities, and hopes of each individual I work with.

With over a decade of experience supporting adults, adolescents, children, and families, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside people as they navigate meaningful and challenging chapters of their lives. My therapeutic approach is grounded in DBT, CBT, solution‑focused therapy, and client‑driven interventions. Blending these modalities allows me to tailor our work to your unique needs rather than relying on a one‑size‑fits‑all method. I strive to create a collaborative, supportive environment where growth feels possible and where you feel genuinely heard. My goal is to offer an experience filled with encouragement, compassionate challenging, and meaningful conversations that help you identify and overcome the barriers that have been getting in your way. Together, we work to build insight, strengthen resilience, and create new pathways toward the life you want to live. From the beginning, our therapeutic relationship is centered on partnership. We focus on understanding your goals, exploring what has been holding you back, and identifying the strengths you already possess. Therapy is not about perfection—it’s about progress, empowerment, and discovering what becomes possible when you have a safe space to explore, heal, and grow. If you’re seeking a therapist who will meet you where you are, honor your experiences, and walk with you as you create meaningful change, I would be honored to be part of your journey. My commitment is to offer individualized support that helps you move toward the version of yourself you’ve always hoped to become.
