My work as a therapist has given me the privilege of supporting people from many different backgrounds, cultures, and walks of life. Through these experiences, I've come to appreciate that while our stories are unique, many of us share similar struggles: wanting to feel connected, understood, accepted, and at peace within ourselves. I view therapy as a collaborative process rooted in curiosity, self compassion, and growth. Whether you're navigating a difficult chapter or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I aim to provide a space where healing, insight, and meaningful change can emerge.

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.

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.

Hello! My name is Judy Branch, owner of Judy E. Branch Counseling, LLC, in Lone Tree, Colorado. I love helping clients find relief from the curveballs life is sure to throw, by creating a strong therapeutic alliance and listening carefully to correctly understand client perspectives and circumstances. I believe therapy should feel like a safe place to be fully yourself — without judgment, pressure, or having to “have it all figured out.” Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, family conflict, trauma, or self-doubt begin affecting everyday life.

Hi! My name is Rachel, and I have a passion for supporting all people through the many unique journeys and roads of life. I view therapy as a space where we both bring expertise and respect to our work. I approach getting to know a client from a strength-based and trauma informed lens. This means I will always see the good in you, even if it may feel hard to see within yourself. I am here to provide a listening ear, a new perspective, and see if things could be better. I am not here to judge your past, rather, reflect on how you were (and are) doing the best you can at any given time. We all have struggles, and I work to connect with you on a human level. While I do not make light of dark experiences, I often use humor and sarcasm to help us connect. Sometimes we laugh so we don’t cry; either or neither is okay in our work. Your goals, hopes, worries, and safety are my priorities, with you always consenting to what we discuss and do in session. I also use my experience with my own chronic illness, neurodiversity, and trauma to help clients feel less alone in their struggles.

Hi, I’m so glad you’re here! I’m a San Francisco native, a military veteran, and a lifelong art lover who finally found the courage to answer my truest calling during the whirlwind of 2020. I haven’t looked back since. I am deeply passionate about bridging the gaps in mental health care and destigmatizing therapy—because taking care of your mind should be as normal as taking care of your body. When I’m not in the therapist chair, my life is beautifully full. I’m a homeschooling mom to six incredible girls (yes, six!), married to my childhood sweetheart, and a big fan of making meals from scratch and catching a double feature at the drive-in movie theater. My Approach I bring that same blend of heart, dedication, and real-world chaos into my practice. I take a direct, down-to-earth approach, and I love working with people who are truly ready to show up, connect, and do the work. My space is for teens and adults navigating messy transitions, trauma, PTSD/CPTSD, bipolar disorder, and personality disorders. Whether you are running on fumes or struggling with a loud inner critic, my goal is to provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can drop the mask, laugh, cry, and be totally honest. Together, we’ll unpack the heavy stuff so you can finally learn to love, see, and choose yourself.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 12 years of experience 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 draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT). I believe therapy should help people become more confident in understanding themselves and responding to life's challenges. My goal isn't to provide all the answers, but to help clients leave with the perspective and a different way of navigating challenges. Before entering outpatient practice, I spent many years working in crisis services and involuntary treatment settings. That experience reinforced something I continue to believe deeply: people are often capable of far more change than they realize. Everyone has the capacity to get better and make positive changes. I especially enjoy working with people who are curious, reflective, and invested in their own growth. Many of my clients are professionals, entrepreneurs, healthcare workers, first responders, and others balancing demanding lives while striving to live with greater purpose and intention. As someone who is neurodivergent myself, I also understand firsthand both the strengths and challenges that can come with ADHD, and I enjoy helping clients build systems that work with their brains rather than against them.

I work with women and LGBTQ+ adults who are ready to stop repeating the same relationship patterns and start building a healthier relationship with themselves. You may find yourself questioning your worth, losing yourself in relationships, struggling to trust your own decisions, or feeling stuck in patterns you know no longer serve you. Together, we'll explore where those patterns began, strengthen your self-trust, and create lasting change rooted in emotional safety and self-respect. My approach integrates attachment-informed, trauma-focused, and evidence-based therapy with practical tools that support meaningful change beyond our sessions. I believe healing involves the whole person, recognizing the impact of relationships, trauma, nervous system regulation, physical health, hormones, and life transitions on emotional wellbeing. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Sex Therapist, I also support clients navigating intimacy, sexuality, sexual trauma, religious shame, relationship transitions, and recovery from intimate partner violence.

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.

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.

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.

I'm Erik Petersen — a Licensed Professional Counselor, grief specialist, and couples therapist with over 20 years of experience walking with people through the hardest seasons of their lives. I know what it's like to lose a father young. To feel the ground shift beneath you before you were ready. To spend years searching for direction — and for someone steady enough to follow. That kind of loss doesn't just take a person. It takes the roadmap. And without it, you wander. That wandering shaped me. It's why I do this work, and why I do it the way I do. I founded Made Known Counseling because I believe the deepest human need isn't to be fixed — it's to be truly known. Known in the pain, the confusion, the grief that hasn't lifted, the relationship that's quietly unraveling. Known without being rushed toward an answer that isn't ready yet. I work with individuals carrying grief in all its forms — death, divorce, miscarriage, estrangement, infertility, and the losses that don't have a name but still take something from you. I work with couples who love each other but have lost the thread. And I work with men doing the kind of interior work that most rooms don't make space for — the searching, the silence, the long overdue reckoning. My approach is trauma-informed, relationally grounded, and faith-integrated for those who want that. I draw on EMDR, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and the Gottman Method — but what matters more than technique is presence. I practice online across Colorado and in-person near Grand Junction. If something in you says it's time — that's enough to begin. Helping You Mourn. Mend. And Find Meaning.

At the heart of my work, I believe each individual has the capacity for change and growth. Even when life feels heavy, there is always a part of us that holds the gift of resilience, wisdom, and healing grace. My role is to help individuals reconnect with that part to create a grounded, supportive space where they can feel understood, regain a sense of control, and move toward the changes that matter most to them.

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 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.

My work as a counselor has allowed me to sit alongside people from many different backgrounds and life experiences, often during some of the most overwhelming or uncertain seasons of their lives.

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 Will. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Neuroscience from The Ohio State University and my master’s in Clinical Psychology from University of Denver. I see therapy as a space where we can slow things down, sit with what’s really happening underneath the surface, and better understand the patterns, emotions, and protective responses shaping your experience. I’m here to help hold and explore feelings with you, not judge or push them away. We can resist to acknowledge certain emotions because of a lot of things; shame, “shoulds,” self-judgment. beliefs we’ve absorbed from others. But mostly because its just becomes a reflex established in childhood that kept us safe. Feelings do not have to be objectively true or rational (the amygdala tends not to care about that) to deserve our attention and empathy . When we slow down enough to acknowledge and hold space for them, emotions can return to their original purpose: giving us information about our needs, wants, boundaries, and experiences instead of quietly driving behaviors underneath our awareness. I won’t lie — this work can feel challenging and even awkward at first. Most of us were never taught how to truly sit with ourselves. But in my experience, this kind of work creates deeper and more lasting nervous system change than only relying on coping skills to manage emotions. Your emotions and feeling are who you are, when the are free to be expressed and acknowledged my clients find parts of themselves that were previously thought to be loss.

Frequently asked questions

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across the entire state. If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near your address.

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Trauma and PTSD, is filtering therapists in Colorado that work with patients with similar concerns.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
