Feeling anxious and/or
depressed
? Flat and uninspired in your life? Are you just going through the motions without actually enjoying your life? Or maybe you have changes you want to make but have not been successful? Life is full of ups and downs, grief and loss, changes in relationships, and changes within ourselves, just to name a few, are all factors that complicate life, and sometimes make it hard to live our life to the fullest.

Verified
I specialize in attachment and trauma concerns, relationship concerns, anxiety,
depression

Every person has developed their own means of coping and navigating their world. Sometimes these ways of coping have been necessary for survival, but they are not allowing room for further growth. Old survival patterns can sabotage relationships, keep you feeling stuck, and drain life of joy. I want to partner with you as you explore new ways of coping and thriving, and break old patterns. I seek to create an environment where your strengths are honored and built upon as you learn to navigate your external and internal world with greater freedom.
Sharon R Carter
Psychologist, PhD

It's easy to feel overwhelmed these days. Crazy-busy lifestyles, excessive work demands, financial worries, work/life imbalances, relationship conflict, worry about the future..to name a few of the issues that can exhaust our reserves and lead to emotional distress. I have over 30 years of clinical practice as a psychologist, helping adults, couples, and adolescents who have been affected by
depression
, anxiety, anger, trauma, grief, relationship conflict, and mood disorders. Clients not only recover from their current distress, but also to learn how to become more resilient and "bullet-proof" against future stressors.
Kris Abrams
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, MS, MA
Verified
Each one of us is capable of living a life of authenticity, connection, meaning, and joy. Yet so much can get in the way. Early on, we're taught to believe that something is wrong with us - we're the wrong size, the wrong gender/sexuality/race, have the wrong talents/goals. We're taught to strive for a limited vision of success. On top of these cultural pressures, many of us experience trauma such as emotional/physical abuse. Is it any wonder that so many people suffer from unhappiness,
depression
, anxiety, self-criticism, and disempowerment?
Rachel Shockley
MSW, SWC
Verified
I enjoy working with professionals, young adults and teens who feel stressed, anxious, or
depressed
. If you're stuck, overwhelmed, or feel shame or confusion about your behavior, if you need someone to hold space for you so you can actually think - we'll probably be a good fit. If you're afraid to speak what's on your mind or say what you're feeling, if you're sure no one could understand, let's do this. I use a collaborative approach and an increased awareness of the present moment, as well as the mind and body, to help you survive plunging into your own depths, and returning to make empowered changes that increase your wellbeing.
Sarah Barnes
Counselor, LPC
Verified
Throughout life’s journey experiencing struggles, sickness, and loss, we sometimes find ourselves in need of the kind of unbiased support and unconditional positive regard that a counselor can provide. We benefit from the sacred space that’s held just for us during therapy, and the healing that occurs in the relationship between ourselves and the counselor, and of course in the healthier relationship we develop with ourselves and others. When we experience the darkness of
depression
, overwhelming anxiety, trauma, loss, crisis of identity or faith, or even indecision, our personal guidance systems can become temporarily blocked.
Kristin Lauer
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC, NCC, PMH-C
Verified
Modern life can leave us stressed out, disconnected from each other, and disconnected from ourselves. Human beings have an incredible capacity for adaptation and growth. I believe that therapy is an effective way to tap into the resiliency for which we are all capable. Everyone experiences life’s up and downs, which can include trauma, difficulty adjusting, trouble in interpersonal relationships, mood regulation, self-destructive behaviors, anxiety,
depression
, and many others.
Miranda Day
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Verified
Add to that the stress of everyday life and it can quickly become overwhelming, causing anxiety,
depression
, confusion, and grief.
No one gets through life alone. No matter how much you subscribe to the "pull yourself up by your boot-straps" method, at a certain point, that breaks down and you're forced to ask for help. I certainly would not be where I am today without the many people who have been there for me throughout my life. Now, more than ever, we need to lean on each other for support and connection.
Marlene Schafer
Drug & Alcohol Counselor, MC, LAC, NCC
Verified
Life can be challenging and sometimes difficult to navigate. Our struggles, whether it be emotional (worry, anxiety,
depression
) or behavioral (acting out and/or using substances), can greatly impact the quality of our lives. During our time together, I want to help you live beyond the symptoms you report and help you to connect to what matters most. It is said, “knowing what is important to us doesn’t really improve our lives but acting in line with what is important to us does.” If you are ready to develop clarity of purpose and meaning in your life, please contact me. My passion is to see you live a more meaningful life.
Renee Dixon

I am a license social worker with over 12 years of experience working teens, families, and individual in various settings. I enjoy helping to empower families and individuals to overcome past and present struggles in order to live healthy, full, hope filled lives. I believe in the importance of finding the root issues in a persons life in order to find true healing. I offer therapy to help address issues such as anxiety,
depression
, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and loss.
Robert T. DeMoss
Psychologist, PsyD
Verified
Psychotherapy is much more than the removal of symptoms. I help individuals embrace their lives! I work with adults, aging adults, and adolescents who may have symptoms of anxiety,
depression
, learning disorders, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorders, brain traumas, Autism spectrum disorders, PTSD and all emotional concerns. I'm particularly interested in working with clients who have PTSD and/or those in 12-step programs who need additional help to supplement their step work; who want to work with a therapist who understands and supports the 12-step approach.
Margaret Mary Hawkins
MSW, ES
I believe in creating a safe emotional space for healing and growth. I believe that growth and healing is within the client. I am here to help guide that growth through empowerment, various techniques and the bond that is established in the relationship. I believe that empathy, humor and honesty are essential to healing. Sometimes we feel blocked or held back in our life due to
depression
, trauma, relationship problems, limiting beliefs, or we just feel as though we are not achieving our full potential. I believe that not one technique works all the time and that a combination of various techniques is valuable.

Depression Therapists
Depressive disorders are characterized by persistent feelings of sadness and worthlessness and a lack of desire to engage in formerly pleasurable activities. Depression is not a passing blue mood, which almost everyone experiences from time to time, but a complex mind/body illness that interferes with everyday functioning. It not only darkens one's outlook, it is commonly marked by sleep problems and changes in energy levels and appetite. It alters the structure and function of nerve cells so that it disrupts the way the brain processes information and interprets experience.
Despite feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness, depression is a treatable condition. It can be treated with psychotherapy by depression therapists in Durango. As with many illnesses, the earlier treatment begins, the more effective it can be and the greater the likelihood that recurrence can be prevented.
Psychotherapy addresses the thinking patterns that precipitate depression, and studies show that it prevents recurrence. Drug therapy is often helpful in relieving symptoms, such as severe anxiety, so that people can engage in meaningful psychotherapy.
