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.

You don't have to carry it all alone. What often feels like chronic stress, anxiety, or overwhelm is your nervous system signaling that you've been carrying too much for too long. I help women heal from trauma, calm their nervous systems, and feel more like themselves again. Hi! I’m Leah Swanson, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 10 years of experience in mental health across women's health clinics, schools, and private practice. As a woman, I deeply understand many of the challenges women face, including emotional overwhelm, relationship struggles, perfectionism, self-criticism, divorce and breakups, and career burnout. Many women are hard on themselves, overgive, overthink, and quietly wonder if they are enough. My goal is to help women develop a supportive inner voice, build healthier relationships, and create meaningful careers through nervous system regulation, evidence-based positive psychology, and somatic mind-body therapy.

Hello Colorado adults and couples seeking growth and change through the therapeutic process! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Addictions Specialist with decades of experience in the field, all here in Colorado. I knew by age 16 - when I noticed peers and family openly sharing their pain and feelings with me, then took my first psychology class in high school- that I was meant for this work. My professional journey began in 1994 after receiving my BA in psychology. I worked in residential child care facility, suicide hotline, community mental health, substance use treatment/dual diagnosis, and inpatient at Boulder Community hospital. I was licensed as an Addictions Counselor in the late 90's. I earned my Master of Social Work from University of Denver in the early 2000's. It was during this time I had a profound experience with grief and loss and decided to focus my clinical studies and practice in this area. After getting married and having a baby boy, became licensed as a Clinical Social Worker and spent the next 24 years working in the child welfare system, primarily in clinical support. It was through this work that I became versed in trauma, attachment, strength-based work and resiliency. I retired in January 2026 from Denver County child welfare to grow my psychotherapy practice and, of the many hats I wore, this is far and away my favorite. My passion is psychotherapy with adults and couples. I support my clients through a trauma-informed lens. I tailor my treatment approach to each client's individual needs. I am warm, supportive, open-minded, non-judgmental. I consider it a privilege to partner with my clients in their healing.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Addictions Counselor in the state of Colorado. I received my Master's degree in Forensic Psychology from the University of Denver in 2017. After completing my Master’s Degree, I spent almost six years working with criminal justice involved clients - from substance abuse to domestic violence offenders. While I learned a lot doing that work, and it was extremely fulfilling to service victims and offenders, I decided to pursue working for myself within the private practice setting. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral and Dialectical Behavioral techniques in my sessions, as well as being trained in Brainspotting for trauma specific treatment. I strongly believe in the connection between physical health and mental health, and do my best to focus on both aspects with the clients I see. I feel fortunate to be able to hear and share in other's stories and be a part of their journey to wellness.

No matter what it is that you are going through, you don’t have to face it alone. I am a licensed therapist and addiction counselor who supports adolescents and adults with challenges related to depression, anxiety, trauma, relationships, self-esteem, belonging, purpose, spirituality, identity (including LGBTQIA2S+ and racial identity), grief, substance use and addiction, suicidal ideation, self-harm, men's issues, young adulthood, and life transitions of all kinds. If this sounds like you, I am here to help you process emotions, loosen conditioned beliefs and habitual patterns, and work toward a more kind, accepting relationship with yourself. As a contemplative psychotherapist, my approach rests on helping you reconnect with your brilliant sanity—or human beings' intrinsic nature of goodness and wisdom that we all lose touch with. Through our work together, I will support you to uncover your wisdom, intuition, and innate capacities for clarity, self-acceptance and self-compassion, and healing. Being human is hard, and just by being the human that you are, you are deserving of your own kindness, love, and care. It would be an honor to walk alongside you on your path toward whatever your heart yearns for most.

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 work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, past trauma, and co-occurring substance use, especially those who want to better understand how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected. I’m particularly well-suited for clients who are motivated for change—even if they’re unsure where to begin—and are open to a collaborative, skills-based approach to therapy. In my practice, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and challenge unhelpful thinking patterns, such as catastrophizing or all-or-nothing thinking, and replace them with more balanced, realistic perspectives. I incorporate techniques like cognitive restructuring, behavioral activation, and practical skill-building to support lasting change. I also utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an evidence-based approach that helps clients process traumatic experiences and reduce the emotional distress tied to those memories. This approach has been especially effective in helping clients experiencing trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and substance use challenges achieve meaningful, lasting relief.

I work primarily with adults and adolescents 12+ navigating trauma, anxiety, ADHD, burnout, and major life transitions. My approach is collaborative, structured, and grounded in evidence-based practices, including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). I look forward to working with people on an individual, voluntary basis. I worked for a long time on the involuntary end of treatment and still full heartedly believe in the capacity for change. I believe that the human spirit is intrinsically positive and we are all working towards being the best versions of ourselves with our available means. I applaud anyone reaching out to connect to another person in an attempt to better themselves, welcome you are in the right place. I help clients understand how past experiences and chronic stress continue to influence thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, while building practical skills for emotional regulation and sustainable coping. I place a strong emphasis on pacing, safety, and clarity, especially early in therapy, so clients feel supported while working toward meaningful change. I’m especially well suited to working with individuals who lead active lifestyles and value a therapy process that is goal-oriented, engaged, and applicable to everyday life. My goal is to provide a steady, supportive space where insight leads to action and progress feels both realistic and lasting.

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.

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.

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.

Starting therapy can feel intimidating, but we’ll show up authentically and use a bit of humor when life feels heavy. I’m excited to begin this healing journey with you. Let's get started!

Hi, I'm Kristin. I'm a Licensed Addiction Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado. I have worked in the field of co-occurring disorders since 2011, primarily in substance use treatment programs, jails, and with individuals struggling with serious mental illness. I began my private practice during the height of COVID-19 in May 2020. I specialize in relationship issues (boundary work, attachment styles, and interpersonal dynamics), as well as substance use and trauma. My best work is with individuals who have experienced significant conflict or trauma in their lives and seek to understand the impact of this experience and learn from it to enable purposeful movement forward.

I provide individual therapy for adolescents and adults in a supportive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment where clients can feel safe exploring their experiences and working toward meaningful change. My approach to therapy is client-centered, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive. I believe that each person has unique strengths, experiences, and goals, and I strive to tailor treatment to meet the individual needs of every client. I draw from evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Trauma-Focused CBT, and mindfulness-based interventions to help clients develop insight, build resilience, and create lasting change. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, substance use concerns, life transitions, relationship difficulties, and challenges related to self-esteem and identity. As a former Division I athlete and immigrant, I also have a special interest in supporting athletes, high performers, and individuals navigating cultural transitions, performance pressures, and major life changes. My goal is to create a collaborative therapeutic relationship where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. I view therapy as a partnership and work alongside clients to identify strengths, develop practical coping strategies, and move toward a life that aligns with their values and goals. Whether you are seeking support during a difficult time, looking to improve your mental health, or hoping to gain a deeper understanding of yourself, I am committed to providing a space where healing, growth, and self-discovery can occur. I look forward to supporting you on your journey.

With 20 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida and Colorado, I help people get unstuck from patterns that keep repeating—even when they know better. Not just talk about it—actually change it. I’ve worked with Veterans, caregivers, people dealing with serious illness, and those carrying anxiety, depression, grief, and burnout from holding too much for too long. Most of my clients aren’t new to insight—they already understand their patterns. They just haven’t been able to change them yet. I don’t do cookie-cutter therapy. We look at your actual life—your history, relationships, nervous system, and habits—and figure out what’s really driving things. Then we work on it in a way that’s realistic and doable—something you can actually sustain. I’m direct and I’m kind. I’ll call things out when needed, but I’m not here to shame you—I’m here to help you move. You don’t have to filter yourself or pretend you’re more okay than you are. Just show up as you are and we’ll work with that. I’m a secular, affirming therapist. You don’t have to explain or defend who you are here. I work with LGBTQ+ clients, people in nontraditional relationships, and anyone who’s tired of feeling like they don’t quite fit. I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, mindfulness, solution-focused therapy, and motivational interviewing—but more importantly, I use what actually works for you. I’m also trained in psychedelic therapy and integration. If you want a therapist who will sit quietly and nod, I’m probably not your person. If you want someone who will help you understand what’s going on, challenge what’s not working, and actually help you change things—we’ll get along well.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by state rather than a city?

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.

Will my therapist take insurance?

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.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Addiction?

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, Addiction, is filtering therapists in Colorado that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

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.

What happens during the first therapy session?

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.
