Therapists near me in Greenwood Village, CO

I became a therapist as a second career. In my first career, I worked in marketing and analytics. I graduated with a BA in Advertising with a minor in Marketing. After working in the advertising, research, and business, I went back to school to get my Masters in Counseling. I have experience working with eating disorders, athletes, anxiety, depression, divorce, conflict, life stressors and life transitions. I was a competitive runner about 10+ years ago which helps me understand athletes.

I help adults, kids and teens heal from the inside out by weaving together EMDR, attachment work, and nervous system regulation. If you’re navigating trauma, relationship hurdles, or a loss of self-worth. My work is grounded in the belief that you don’t need to be “fixed.” You may have learned to cope by staying busy, staying strong, or staying small — but those patterns made sense at one point.

Hello, my name is Shannon Dunnan. I specialize at working with individuals struggling with substance use, addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, life-transitions, relationships, attachment, and emotion regulation challenges. Reaching out for support can feel both brave and uncertain, but beginning therapy is an important step toward overcoming challenges and learning new ways to manage life’s obstacles. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and accountable space where you can grow, heal, and work toward meaningful change. I look forward to partnering with you to better understand the challenges you are facing and to help you move toward the goals you hope to achieve.

My name is Miguel Lopez, a Hispanic male (He/Him/His) and U.S. Army combat veteran who brings a unique perspective to my work as a therapist. Fluent in Spanish and passionate about guiding people through life’s challenges, I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Walden University, a Bachelor’s in Criminal Justice from Colorado Technical University, and an Associate’s in Criminal Justice from Pikes Peak State College. With over a decade of experience as a caseworker, substance abuse counselor, and therapist, I’ve had the privilege of working with diverse clients facing real-life struggles and in need of daily support. Life can be tough, and we all face difficult moments—whether it’s a breakup, divorce, grief, the loss of a loved one or pet, or even a job loss. In these times, having an unbiased person to offer support can make a world of difference. I see trauma as an unexpected part of life that is often hard to process, but with the right help, it can be managed and overcome healthily. I’ve personally experienced more than my share of trauma, grief, loss, sadness, depression, and substance use, and I sought help to work through them. My approach to therapy is centered on helping people in the best way possible, always with an open mind. I often use Maslow’s hierarchy of needs as a guide, because I believe mental health is hard to prioritize when physical needs aren’t met, or issues like homelessness or substance abuse are present. I enjoy working with clients from age 5 to older adults who face Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, PTSD, Mood Disorders, Personality Disorders, and other mental health or substance use challenges. It’s easy to fight battles alone and suffer in silence, but you don’t have to anymore—together, we can work toward healing and a better future.

I am a licensed therapist who helps adults move through anxiety, life transitions, relationship stress, and the emotional impact of trauma. My approach is calm, compassionate, and down to earth. I create a safe space where clients can slow down, feel understood, and learn practical skills that support real change. I blend Trauma Focused CBT, mindfulness, and strengths based work to help clients feel grounded and confident again. My goal is to help you reconnect with your sense of self so you can meet challenges with clarity and resilience. I believe healing happens when you feel supported, heard, and empowered to build a life that feels steady and meaningful.

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.

Hello, I'm Jon Nichols. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to empowering individuals to achieve emotional equilibrium and personal growth. I hold a Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology from Lesley University, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado and Virginia. Over the years, I have worked with diverse populations, addressing a wide range of emotional challenges. My therapeutic approach is insight-oriented and person-centered. Through a collaborative and non-judgmental process, I strive to empower clients to build resilience, develop coping strategies, and discover their inner strengths. I enjoy working with clients who are dealing with ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, Adolescence, Grief Loss, Divorce, Christianity, Religious Trauma, Narcissistic Relationships, Cross-Cultural Relationships, and Culture Shock.

I specialize in two things most therapists don't: sleep and health. Specifically, I help individuals who can't sleep, who are managing a chronic illness or medical diagnosis, or who've been trying to make lasting health behavior changes and keep hitting a wall. I hold dual board certifications in Clinical Health Psychology (ABPP) and Behavioral Sleep Medicine (DBSM), the latter being one of the most specialized credentials a psychologist can earn, and one that very few providers in Colorado have. Before going into private practice, I spent over a decade as an active duty psychologist in the U.S. Air Force, working with service members, veterans, and their families through some genuinely hard things. That experience shaped how I approach care: I believe in being collaborative, practical, and honest about what the research actually supports, and I don't believe in wasting your time. My availability is usually limited to Mondays, as I also work full-time as a professor training future psychologists and conducting clinical research.

I was born and raised in North Texas, where I studied Social Work at a bachelors and masters level. I started working in the mental health space in 2022, and had had the privilege of serving my community in a wide variety of roles before I eventually became a therapist. My passion for this work is constantly reaffirmed by having countless experiences with clients who demonstrate their ability to address and overcome life stressors, distressing, or traumatic experiences to begin their journey towards fulfillment. I specialize in treating clients who struggle with suicidal ideation, thoughts of self harm, clients experiencing depression, and clients who have experienced trauma. I work with adults aged 18-72.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker specializing in helping individuals manage depression, anxiety, and life’s challenges. My approach combines evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing with empathy and understanding to create a safe, supportive space for growth. I meet clients where they are and work collaboratively to identify goals, build coping skills, and create meaningful change. My goal is to empower you to feel more confident, resilient, and hopeful as you move toward the life you want.

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 am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with more than 15 years of experience in community mental health. I have worked across a wide range of settings, including outpatient therapy, crisis services, and intensive community programs, and have supported people through some of the most difficult moments of their lives. In addition to providing therapy, I have supervised clinical teams and led mental health programs, giving me a broad perspective on what truly helps people heal. I offer individual therapy to adults. I work with adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. I provide LGBTQ+ affirming care and am committed to creating a space where clients of all identities feel respected, understood, and safe to be themselves. My style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I believe therapy should feel like a steady place where you can be honest about what you’re going through—without judgment or pressure to be anything other than yourself. I focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship and helping clients develop practical tools while also making space for deeper healing and self-understanding.

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.

My approach is collaborative, practical, and grounded in evidence-based therapies. I work with adults of all genders, including individuals and couples, who are navigating emotional, relational, or life challenges. I focus on helping clients make sense of their experiences, rebuild self-trust, and develop tools that support meaningful, lasting change. Many clients leave therapy feeling more grounded, empowered, and better equipped to move forward with clarity and confidence.

In therapy with me, there’s no judgment, no fluff, and no “one-size-fits-all” solutions. We’ll start where you are whether that’s putting out fires in your daily life or addressing deeper wounds that keep pulling you back. I combine Brainspotting, practical tools, and direct conversation to help you manage today’s struggles while healing the past. My focus areas include anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, and domestic violence. I also work with therapists, first responders, and others carrying the weight of the world. My style is direct, compassionate, and grounded in the belief that healing is messy but possible. Together, we’ll create a space to explore your emotions, uncover patterns, and build strategies that work for you. It’s not about perfection it’s about progress and reclaiming your life on your terms. **If you try to book and there is no availability that works for you please reach out, directly via my website**

I am a therapist dedicated to a deeply collaborative healing journey. My practice is built on creating a genuine connection where authenticity and curiosity are our guides. Together, we work to uncover insightful perspectives and practical strategies, empowering you to approach life's challenges and opportunities in ways that deeply resonate with your personal values and aspirations for a more fulfilling future.

I'm not just a therapist. I'm a coffee enthusiast who starts each day with a pour-over and a quiet moment before the world wakes up. I'm an outdoor lover who believes fresh air and moving my body are non-negotiable whether that's a hike, 4x4ing, hitting the resort/ backcountry, a walk with the family, or just standing in the backyard feeling the sun. And I'm a family man. A partner. A parent. Someone who knows what it's like to be pulled in ten directions and still want to show up fully for the people around me. That life outside the office isn't separate from my work. It's what keeps me refreshed, grounded, and able to come back to this chair with presence and energy. I don't just talk about balance I live it, imperfectly and intentionally. The work I've done reflects that same groundedness. I've been shaped by a wide range of experiences: residential treatment settings where the stakes were high and the progress was hard-won. Outpatient practice where life happens between sessions jobs, kids, marriages, breakdowns and breakthroughs. I've sat with clients across the entire lifespan, from geriatric patients navigating legacy and loss to teens just beginning to ask who they are. That breadth taught me something: suffering doesn't discriminate by age, and neither does healing. Whether you're sixteen or sixty, whether you're processing trauma or just trying to feel less alone, the fundamentals are the same. You want to be seen. You want to be understood. And you want a way forward that actually fits your life. That's what I'm here for.

As a therapist, I am someone who genuinely cares about the mental health and well-being of my clients. I care about the whole person—their thoughts, emotions, experiences, relationships, identity, and the holistic expression of who they are. I believe therapy is not simply about treating a problem; it is about developing insight, building skills, understanding patterns, and creating the capacity to become a healthier and more authentic version of oneself. I love witnessing the growth process. There is something powerful about watching a person begin to understand themselves differently, recognize their own strength, and realize that they have choices they may not have seen before.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been providing mental health services since 2013. I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of New England and my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Wyoming. Throughout my career, I've worked with individuals who have experienced trauma, and I'm passionate about helping people reconnect with themselves and their strength. I also work closely with parents to build more structure and consistency in their homes, while supporting their own mental health growth. I started out working in the homes and communities of my clients through an intensive program, working with the families of children who were at risk for out of home placement, such as residential treatment or psychiatric hospitalization. This program was a 6 month therapeutic intervention, helping parents to better understand their children's needs, as well as helping children develop regulatory skills to help them be more successful, in their homes and communities. I provide virtual outpatient therapy to Colorado residents, working with individuals aged 15 and up who are struggling with daily functioning and searching for their true, authentic selves. My approach blends evidence-based methods, tailored to support you through distress and toward healing. I believe in meeting you exactly where you are, without judgment, and building a path forward together at a pace that feels right for you.

Hello! I am an LPC-MHSP in the state of TN. I am also fully licensed in both MS and CO. I have over 13+ years experience in the Mental Health field working within a variety of settings. I’ve always been deeply passionate about seeing others thrive and succeed. As my life experiences unfolded, that passion only grew stronger, shaping my desire to serve others and support them in building resilience through life's toughest challenges. I've also long been fascinated by the "why" behind human behavior, which led me to combine these two passions into a life of service-helping others step into and operate at their highest potential.

Welcome, my name is Jenilee Hopkins. I’m a passionate therapist who believes that healing begins in a space of safety, compassion, and genuine connection.

Hello, I'm Sandra Workman, MS, LPC, NCC, CMHC. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, or mood disorders, that disrupt daily functioning, relationships, work, and financial stability. Using evidenced -based approaches including CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, I help clients build practical skills, reduce stress, and create clear, achievable steps toward recovery.

I can help you get unstuck, ditch your guilt, and love your people better. I will also help you strengthen your boundaries and healing your past so that you can be your best self.

Hello, my name is Ana Paula. I am a bilingual (English/Portuguese) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC), with a passion for helping individuals and families navigate personal and relational challenges. My approach to therapy is rooted in understanding relationships and the patterns that can develop within families and other important relationships. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help clients better understand their emotions, attachment needs, and relationship patterns. Together, we work to identify unhealthy patterns, strengthen emotional connections, and develop healthier and more meaningful relationships.

Hello! I am Mackenzie, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing virtually in Georgia, Colorado, and Kansas. My goal as a therapist is to provide a warm and nonjudgmental space for young adults navigating life’s transitions and challenges. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief, and other adjustments that can come with life changes. My approach is collaborative and person-centered, with a focus on helping clients gain clarity, develop practical coping skills, and feel more confident navigating whatever comes next. Outside of work, you can usually find me outdoors hiking, taking long walks, or visiting a park with my husband and our two dogs. I also love exploring new restaurants, reading, and unwinding with a puzzle.

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.

I help clients who feel overwhelmed by worry, racing thoughts, tension, fear, or the sense that they cannot fully relax. My goal is to help you recognize the strength already within you and learn practical ways to feel calmer and more in control. Because anxiety is shaped by each person’s upbringing, life experiences, thought patterns, and current circumstances, I take time to understand your unique story. Together, we can identify what is fueling your anxiety and create a path toward greater confidence, progress, and peace.

Before I worked as a counselor I worked as a technical writer and software tester, and then as a caseworker in social services. I have also been a studio engineer with much work in audio and video editing and got to spend a year on the film festival circuit for a documentary I made about being an independent musician. All of those experiences I feel are helpful in working with clients from different backgrounds and perhaps in understanding that most of us want to find something meaningful in this life and often feel that we still don't know what our real calling.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 27 years of experience working with individuals and families from all walks of life. I specialize in treating adults and seniors who are experiencing challenges associated with emotional health, medical/physical health and the stressors that accompany those conditions. I have extensive experience in working to support clients with depression, anxiety, and stress related disorders. Additionally, I have expertise in navigating complex medical, mental and physical care needs in support of caregivers and families who are struggling to care for an aging loved one. Dementia care is an area of special interest and expertise as well.

Most of the people I work with look like they have it together on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or under constant pressure internally. They’re capable, driven, and tired of feeling like they’re just getting by. I’m a licensed counselor who helps adults and adolescents slow things down, understand what’s beneath the surface, and build practical tools that lead to real, lasting change.

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.

Hello! I'm happy you are here. My name is Jenny Miller. I'm a compassionate counselor with a heart for helping individuals navigate the complexities of life. My practice is built on the foundation of creating a safe, non-judgmental space where children, adolescents and adults can openly explore their thoughts and feelings. With a rich background in various therapeutic modalities, I bring a versatile skill set to my sessions. Seeking therapy is a courageous and powerful step toward understanding yourself, addressing emotional challenges and building the skills to lead a more fulfilling life. Whatever difficulties life throws your way, therapy can provide a safe, confidential space to explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences. I can help you consider new perspectives, develop coping strategies and gain insight into the underlying causes of emotional pain. Together we can help you build resilience, while working through past or present struggles in a compassionate, non-judgmental way. My philosophy is centered on the belief that everyone deserves to lead a peaceful, vibrant, and fulfilling life. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or just seeking personal growth, I am here to guide you through your journey with empathy and expertise

I’m Dr. Eunice Joo, a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps individuals and couples gain deeper clarity about their thoughts, emotions, and relationship patterns. My goal is to help people understand the underlying beliefs and assumptions that often shape their reactions, conflicts, and life decisions. When these patterns become clearer, people are better able to make healthier and more meaningful choices for their lives. As an immigrant myself, I understand the unique cultural challenges that many people experience while living between different cultures and value systems. The process of navigating identity, expectations, and belonging can often create confusion, inner conflict, and emotional stress. In my work, I help clients sort through these experiences so they can develop a clearer sense of identity, regain confidence in their values, and learn how to engage with different cultures without losing their own sense of self. My counseling approach focuses on identifying distorted thinking patterns and emotional triggers that may keep people stuck in cycles of confusion, self-doubt, or relational conflict. By helping clients recognize these patterns, I support them in expanding their psychological perspective and developing practical ways to respond more thoughtfully rather than react impulsively. For clients who value faith, I also offer Christian counseling that integrates biblical wisdom, prayer, and personal faith reflection with sound psychological insight. My goal is to help people experience healing, restore their sense of dignity and purpose, and move toward a more grounded and meaningful life.

Hi! My name is Stephanie. I have been described as an expressive, down-to-earth counselor who puts the clients needs first. I realize that talking to a counselor can be a vulnerable thing, so I prioritize the relationship that we build with each other. I like to set long-term goals to have direction, but follow the client weekly as daily stressors also impact functioning. I want you to leave feeling heard, validated, and challenged.

I am a multi-state licensed therapist across California, Colorado, Nebraska, and Texas, specializing in helping adults navigate deep-seated mental health challenges alongside intense personal and professional transitions. With vast clinical experience, I have served as a university career counselor, a specialist for healthcare professionals, and a dedicated clinician within both the US Navy Family Advocacy Program and the Department of Veterans Affairs. My practice provides a highly supportive, practical space for college students, working adults at all career stages, healthcare workers, service members, Veterans, and the LGBTQIA+ community. I blend empathetic listening with deep clinical insight to help you manage and heal from: --Core Mental Health & Neurodivergence: Anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, and identity exploration. --Trauma & Life Impact: Complex trauma, PTSD, grief, loss, and managing chronic medical conditions. --Daily Survival: Severe career burnout, relationship problems, and navigating life's overlapping pressures.

Hi! I am a LPC with fourteen years of experience in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, interpersonal struggles, and poor self-esteem. I specialize in using CBT based therapies. I also have a lot of experience treating trauma with EMDR and narrative-based methods. I believe that trauma plays a big role in the lives of people. Trauma comes in many forms and levels of impact. If we are able to process trauma and find healing, we can experience growth, wisdom, and strength of character. If not processed and healed, trauma can become a source of depression, isolation, anxiety and loss of identity. Secondary to the trauma treatment is focus on coping, communication, connections, identity building, and problem solving. We will work to build a better sense of power and control in your life, which is the core of emotional and psychological well-being.

I am a warm, down-to-earth therapist who believes you shouldn't have to edit yourself to feel understood. I work best with clients who are thoughtful, self-aware, and maybe a little tired of being told to "just stop overthinking" or "look on the bright side". My approach is collaborative and person-centered. I'm genuinely curious about your story and the experiences that have shaped how you see yourself, your relationships, and the world around you. I integrate mindfulness, narrative, and somatic approaches to help you understand both what's happening in your mind and what your body may be trying to tell you. I especially enjoy working with adults in their 20s and 30s navigating anxiety, trauma, relationships, identity, self-worth, and major life transitions. I also have a particular interest in working with LGBTQIA+ clients and creatives. As your therapist, you can expect me to be compassionate and validating while also gently challenging you. I'm not afraid to sit with the uncomfortable stuff, laugh with you when appropriate, or say, "What if we don’t have to figure this out right now?". I want therapy to be a space where you can be honest, curious, and completely yourself.

My name is Ashley Connolly and I am a licensed professional with over 15 years of experience treating a wife variety of mental health issues. I work collaboratively to help you become aware of your strengths and start finding solutions that will enhance your life. I believe within each of us lies the solution to any life challenge, and it is my role to help you uncover your innate wisdom and inner strength to heal. My style of therapy can be described as compassionate collaborative, holistic and directive. We will work together to develop your goals for therapy, and my approach will be tailored to your specific situation and personality. You can heal your life and I am here to help! I received my BS from Northwestern Universty and my graduate degree from Loyola University.

I also am in long term recovery and offer an intensive therapeutic sober coaching program.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience supporting individuals with complex and high acuity mental health needs. My work is grounded in trauma informed and trauma responsive care, with a strong commitment to creating inclusive, affirming spaces for BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent clients, and individuals in rural communities. I work across the lifespan, including children (7+), adults, older adults, families, and couples. My approach is collaborative and empowering, centered on the belief that clients are the experts in their own lives and require my clinical expertise. I often describe my role as “working myself out of a job” to help clients build the insight, skills, and confidence needed to advocate for themselves and navigate systems independently. As a trauma specialist, I tailor evidence based interventions to each client’s identities, needs, strengths, and goals. My primary approaches include Somatic Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)-(EMDRIA certification pending), Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. I also integrate Internal Family Systems informed interventions, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, exposure based strategies, mindfulness, and other approaches as clinically appropriate. I adapt treatment for neurodivergent clients and clients with intellectual or developmental disabilities because therapy should adjust to the person and not require the person to adjust to therapy. I am continually shaped by the courage, insight, and lived experiences clients bring into our work. Every advanced training, specialty, certification, and state license reflect lessons learned from clients. I carry their trust, stories, and influence into every session with gratitude and responsibility. To learn more about my clinical approach, specialties, services, book an initial consultation, and private practice, please visit Mapping Resilience Therapy Center at https://mappingresiliencetherapycenter.com/

I specialize in grief and loss, maternal mental health, faith-based counseling, and spiritual or existential exploration. I also have additional training in helping women who are navigating postpartum anxiety, trauma, and the emotional weight that can come with motherhood. We’ll gently explore the pressures that are keeping you stuck, so you can begin to feel more grounded and yourself again. My approach is warm, discerning, and grounded in the belief that meaningful healing often requires care that honors the complexity of what you are carrying. As a former school counselor, I also understand the difficulties families face. Whether you are moving through loss, adjusting to motherhood, wrestling with faith, or trying to find your footing in a season of uncertainty, you do not have to navigate it without support. If you are looking for a space that is thoughtful, compassionate, and deeply attuned to your experience, I would be honored to walk alongside you.

I'm fascinated by human existence. What you say, what you mean, what you've been through, how you've survived it, and how you're still standing. I pay attention to the details, the patterns, the stories you tell yourself, and the things you wish other people understood about you. I know what it feels like to feel unseen, overlooked, stuck, anxious, hopeless. I don't have life figured out, but I’ve spent years learning to sit with uncertainty, have hard conversations, and navigate the messy realities of being human. I won’t promise to heal you or have all the answers, but I will promise that I'm committed to helping you better understand yourself. I'm an out-of-the-box therapist. I bring passion, humor, authenticity, and insight.

After graduating in 2013 from the University of Houston - Clear Lake from the Marriage and Family Therapy program, I worked in the non-profit sector offering therapy services to both children and adults in the Houston area. I also have experience working in a school setting, and have a passion for working with teens and young adults. I am fully bilingual in both English and Spanish, and I am trained in different treatment modalities to help tackle problems with trauma, anxiety, and adjustment.

I’m a down-to-earth therapist who believes therapy should be a place where you can be honest about what’s really going on. I’m warm and easy to talk to, but I’m also not afraid to challenge you when I think it could help. My goal is to understand you as a whole person and help you make sense of what you’re experiencing while figuring out what comes next.

Hi! My name is Diane Bales MS, LMHC, LPC. I am passionate about what I do. I love walking with clients through their journey of healing. I am known for really caring about my patients and I think that shows. I use an eclectic approach to treatment. I feel that everyone is different and not one approach works for everyone. I want my clients to feel that they have accomplished or overcome something during their time in therapy. Note I do charge for No show and Late Cancellations $70.00

One of the things I value most about being a therapist is getting to know people beyond the version of themselves they feel they have to present to the world. I've always been interested in what shapes the way we see ourselves, how we make sense of our experiences, and why certain patterns can be so difficult to change, even when we recognize them. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I work with adults navigating anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma, identity, and major life transitions. I also specialize in PMDD, particularly the ways cyclical emotional changes can affect relationships, self-perception, and everyday life. My work is attentive to the influence of family, culture, and generational expectations, including the roles and responsibilities we may have taken on without ever really questioning them. My approach is relational, person-centered, and grounded in psychodynamic and attachment-based perspectives. I'm interested in understanding not just what's happening in your life, but what those experiences mean to you and how they've shaped the way you relate to yourself and others. My style is conversational, curious, and collaborative. I'll ask questions, share observations, and sometimes invite you to look at something from a different perspective. I don't believe every concern has a straightforward explanation or that recognizing a pattern automatically makes it easier to change. I value taking the time to understand those complexities rather than rushing toward a solution, while making room for you to show up as you are.

I am an experienced clinician who will meet you where you are at with a compassionate and non-judgmental approach. I've been trained in multiple modalities that are evidence based to help you meet your goals. My lens in therapy is attachment and trauma based, though I also have training in therapies that can immediately help with emotional regulation and tolerating distress.

Welcome! I’m Marianne, a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). Taking the step to start therapy can feel empowering, confusing, or a bit scary all at once. Because of that, my top priority is to provide a warm, relaxed, and completely judgment-free space where you can show up exactly as you are. I want you to know that I have a lot of deep empathy for people going through hard times because I have been there myself. I get how heavy and overwhelming life can feel, and I know firsthand what it takes to find your way through the dark. You truly do not have to carry it all alone. I am right here for you. Whether you are navigating daily anxiety, processing grief, or working through acute trauma, we will navigate it as a collaborative team. I lean on proven, practical tools like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to help you find real relief and feel more grounded. My goal is to always provide culturally responsive, trauma-informed care that moves at a pace that feels safe and right for you. I am here whenever you are ready to share—let's take that next step together.
