Therapists in Fort Collins, CO

I work with clients who feel stuck; stuck in the emotion and negative thoughts associated with life's stressors. Clients, who are beginning to realize that there will always be the struggle of relationships or money matters or health concerns or..., yet understand that they can begin to develop a different outlook, belief system.

We all have spirit. The spirit to move toward meaning in this limited time we have. We often need support in this chaotic world, to speak our truth- And a space to set expectations aside but for an hour at a time. To decide what we want to be and how we want to show up in this moment. And what we want to leave behind as a legacy to family, community, and the world. It would be a privilege to provide a space for you to explore this.

Hello! My name is Chris, and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate. I work primarily with teens, young adults, and college students.

I focus on creating a warm and open environment through respect for your dignity and belief in your unique strengths and talents.

Life can be overwhelming, and Western culture does not readily offer the tools to help us navigate the impact. We end up carrying stress, anxiety, trauma, and depression in our bodies, and if the the cycle continues, we can end up burnt out. In the confusion, we may turn toward substances, behaviors, and other strategies to cope, which ultimately leave us more burdened than before. As hopeless as things can seem, there are always opportunities to change your inner and outer patterns. Over time, these small changes can redirect your life toward alignment, fulfillment, and ease grounded in the present moment.

Sometimes we find ourselves struggling over things we "shouldn't" or feeling down, anxious, or stuck "for no reason." We often criticize ourselves for struggling or try to grin and bear it, but these options often make things worse or at best maintain the status quo. Therapy, however, can help us learn how to navigate life's challenges and be kinder to ourselves in the process. Within the context of a genuine, empathic, collaborative, and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship, my goal is to help you learn about yourself, and together move you towards living the life you want.

My ideal client is someone who demonstrates a genuine commitment to enhancing their understanding of mental health matters. I value clients who actively engage in a collaborative effort to identify evidence-based solutions for their concerns. A crucial aspect of our partnership involves maintaining an open mind and dedicating sincere effort towards achieving progress in their mental and emotional well-being.

How we experience mental health concerns is reliant on several variables. One of the ones that is our overall health. Have we been diagnosed with a chronic or terminal illness? It is not just how we “feel” about our illness; it is also how our body is reacting to our illness or healing. Another variable is family history and dynamics. What has been our family history with both mental and physical health? What is my role with my family? These are only a few examples of topics to consider. Lastly, another variable is my perception of self. It is not a question of how I see my behavior, but it is a matter of what is my “why” in life.
