I believe the bravest thing we can do is embrace our true authentic self. Unfortunately, most of us have difficulty pushing through the negative messages that scream "YOU ARE NO BETTER THAN YOUR WORST CHOICE." We get stuck in our current experience as we wrestle with our fears, difficulty in our relationships and facing the grief of loss, convincing ourselves we do not deserve anything better than we can see right in front of us. I have a passion to help others find their authentic self and explore the barriers that may hinder them from expressing the powerful version of themselves that they long to embrace.

I work with men and women who struggle in their day to day lives to find joy and peace within their lives. So often we spent our time trying to be the person everyone else expects us to be and yet spend little time discovering and becoming our authentic selves. We all live in a reflective universe which will tell a story of ourselves by the world we create. Learning out true nature which is we are all worthy “NOW” and we all deserve unconditional love and respect. Isn’t it time to discover your true nature of gifts, talents and brilliance and begin to live the life you were meant to discover and enjoy? Take time to invest in self!

It is my goal to see the light reignite in a person's eye after they have given up hope for change. I have over 25 years of experience working collaboratively with my clients to find what works for them. I do not have preconceived notions of how to "fix" anyone. We work together to chip away at the issues and create a working plan that helps clients leave feeling better than before after each session. I work within the confines of the client's situation and help with creating realistic and viable solutions. The client plays an active role in my counseling practice.

I am a board-certified clinical mental health counselor who is considered an expert in my field. Using an eclectic style of therapy, my work focuses on implementing evidence-based practices along with holistic practices to improve the identification and treatment of mental illness. I do not believe in "fixing" people because I am not a mechanic and people are not machines. I do feel that everyone has their own journey, and each path may be different, but it never hurts to have a guide. No matter what your past consists of it does not define who you are.

Colby is passionate about life and about helping others to discover that same passion. He recognizes that we all go through life experiences that shape and form us into who we are today. Through those experiences, we can become stuck, discouraged, overwhelmed, feeling helpless, and hopeless. This can keep us from being able to maximize our happiness and joy. Colby uses a combination of therapy modalities to help us understand why we are the way we are, come to accept who we are, and then challenge ourselves to become our best self through intrapersonal and interpersonal growth.

A therapy session is a judgment-free space for someone to share what they’ve been struggling with. It’s a collaborative experience with a counselor who is there to listen and empower you to reach your goals. Everyone runs into some challenges over the course of their life, and counseling is a fantastic chance to raise their awareness of roadblocks to living the life they want to be living. Throughout counseling, you can expect to grow in awareness and perspective, work towards the goals you have for your life, and do it all in a safe, judgment-free environment.

“Dealing with stuff" is in your DNA. You know how to handle yourself in a crisis. You are a problem solver. Others can count on you when "the stuff hits the fan". But there is another side to you... one, no one REALLY knows. I help high functioning people overcome negative reactions to trauma. Whether it’s an explosive reaction to a minor inconvenience or not understanding your overwhelming sadness, trauma manifests in many ways. Dealing with trauma can feel like pushing a heavy boulder up a hill without a finish line in sight. The good news is that there are effective tools that will propel you towards healing & moving forward.

Providing for others, you have put aside your own needs. Work and personal relationships are intertwined. Talk about how to move forward. You have earned a timeout to evaluate and determine your next steps; listening to yourself talk aloud about what has been on your mind and heart can give you clarity about what you want. Give yourself the gift of time.

Men's Issues Therapists
Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.
How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.
What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
