Counseling
13135 W 2nd Pl D3532 Lakewood CO, 80228About
"I am someone who genuinely cares about my clients and am involved in this work because I want to be there for you. I'd like to congratulate you already on taking the first step in therapy." Colin advocates a well-rounded lifestyle as a professional counselor and in his personal life, and believes that overcoming any life problem requires a lifestyle change. Colin has a wide range of mental health competencies, and uses empirically based - or scientifically proven - methods. Hours are set to most convenience his client's and only a limited number of clients are accepted at one time in order to commit to their progress.
Colin primarily specializes in males, but is absolutely qualified and open to working with females in all of his capacities as well. His rationale for supplementary training in males comes from the understanding that males tend to exhibit mental health symptoms differently than females. Colin also utilizes video therapy as an option for his clients.
Colin accepts most insurance plans and offers out-of-network care.
If you are seeking thoughtful, empathetic, and professional support and/or guidance through whatever challenges you may be experiencing, or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, take a moment to look at what Colin has to offer and decide if it’s right for you.
