Do you spend too much time staring at a screen, constantly bombarded with an avalanche of information? Are you looking for an effective way to cope in a world that never stops putting you under pressure? My sessions can help you find healthy ways to unplug and refocus. I am a highly trained and compassionate counselor who specializes in helping clients who suffer from anxiety and depression.

I am a licensed professional counselor with experience working with individuals, families and groups. I enjoy working with clients of all ages, but I have a special affinity for early adolescents and teenagers. My experiences as an educator serve as the foundation for working with these clients and their families. I use a client-centered approach and believe my clients are experts in their own lives. I view my role as therapist as a facilitator who assists clients in discovering their own truths and gaining a deeper sense of themselves.

The life you dream of dreams of you too. Do experiences of depression and anxiety hold you to a narrative that no longer suits you? Do you feel lost and overwhelmed by the ever-changing external pressures of work, school, and other events that life loves to throw at us? Is your life understimulating, and you find yourself just going through the motions without ever genuinely enjoying the present? Do you want to live a life that feels fulfilling? Do you want to cultivate deeper relationships with others and yourself? Do you want to feel like you have the power to make your wildest dreams come true? You deserve it all

The choice to begin therapy can feel daunting. Yet, with the right support, the process can also be empowering. Being seen and heard is the first step towards healing. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, loneliness, relationship issues, trauma, life transitions, family conflict and parenting challenges. I utilize an attachment-based and systemic lens to examine your inner world and work towards shaping a supportive environment for healing and growth. I would be honored to walk alongside you as you deepen your relationship with yourself, gain copin​g ​s​kills and accomplish your goals.

Are you confused about why you are feeling the way you are feeling? Do you wish things were different? Are you feeling disconnected from others or yourself? Current neuroscience and research tells us that about 90 to 95 percent of the way we think, feel, and act is unconscious and automatic. In my practice, I help people understand why they are acting, feeling, and thinking they are so they can begin change their internal reality. I partner with my client’s to educate and empower them to understand themselves better so they can begin to live more intentionally and pursue their passions in meaningful ways.

Joey Stoops is a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate. He holds a masters in clinical mental health counseling from Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado. He works with adolescents and adults in individual telehealth sessions. Joey's approach to therapy is that there are no bad parts of ourselves, but that parts of ourselves cause suffering by being disconnected from the Self. By reconnecting lost parts with our Self we can live more empowered and authentic lives. The stories we tell are an important part of who we are. And they often lead us to the unprocessed pain we carry.

If you have found yourself in the midst of feeling lost, anxious, depressed, grieving a loss or just needing to talk to someone, please call me and make an appointment today. I believe one of the purposes in my life is to sit with those suffering through their humanity and to let them know they’re not alone but a part of a larger self. I believe grace meets us where we are but doesn’t leave us there. I want my clients to be able to embrace and learn from their weak days to help them get stronger and transform into the best versions of themselves. “I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.” -Carl Jung
