Therapists for college students near Denver, CO
You worry about everything- literally everything. You toss and turn at night, waking up exhausted, and unprepared to start the day. It is like you are on auto pilot- just going through the motions. You are constantly in your head, unable to enjoy the present, and time with friends. You feel anxious and on edge most of the time, you wish you could just relax. Others see you as someone who has it all together, without a care in the world- how little they know. Let’s face it, you hide the worry and anxiety well. But lately, it has been getting harder to manage. The anxiety you continuously try to bury, is creeping its way up, and you are feeling overwhelmed. You have been contemplating therapy for so long, not sure if it will even help. But you’re ready now, you know things need to change, and you can’t go through life like this much longer. Now imagine... Imagine being able to finally be present in your everyday life, and actually enjoy your time with family and friends. Imagine finally being able to relax and sleep. Imagine waking up energized and ready to start the day. You’re ready to take the driver’s seat, and no longer allow anxiety and worry to take control. And I can help. I am trained in EMDR and DBT and specialize in helping people like you who struggle with excessive worry. I am a Christian and offer faith-based counseling for those seeking it. However, I work with people no matter their religious affiliation or lack of one. I provide only online counseling. It is time to cross off “find a therapist” from your to-do list. I look forward to hearing from you.
Hey there! I am so glad you're here. When I was growing up, I quickly learned that there were few places I could be truly myself and accepted just as I am. As a therapist, I've discovered many of us share that same story. We learn to conform and perform in response to the pressure of our world telling us who to be, and we are left confused, ashamed, and exhausted when it becomes too much to maintain as adults. In my work with clients, I offer space for you to be exactly who you are, wherever you're at, so that together, we can discover a life that feels good and enjoyable to live, based on your most authentic values and desires. In my practice, I work with members of the LGBTQ+ community, those struggling with body image and disordered eating, survivors of bullying, and folks wrestling with religious trauma. Together, we will explore your unique goals, the pain and behaviors that may be holding you back, and how to create satisfying relationships, both with others and yourself. It is a brave first step to reach out for support when you need it, especially when life feels difficult, and I would be honored to hear your story and explore working with you toward a greater sense of worth and hope. You can contact me through my website or via phone call/ text, and I will respond in 1-2 business days. I look forward to hearing from you!
A need to always look put-together and strong can be destructive and exhausting. It seems like the harder you try, the harder it gets. The pressure to appear “all good” invalidates the emotions we all experience as human beings. Living in a culture of toxic positivity only reinforces the idea that negative thoughts and feelings are somehow inherently unhealthy. In therapy, outdated notions are challenged and you will not be invalidated for feeling…anything. Many of my clients have internalized beliefs about who they should and shouldn’t be- and most of these beliefs are false. Therapy is a non-judgmental space where you can truly express yourself without fear of being judged or shamed. Many of the clients I work with identify with being anxious, perfectionists who want better relationships. I also work with adults who know or think they may be on the autism spectrum. Overall, therapy can be great tool to get a better grip on life as well as for treating a specific diagnosis.. Whatever your background, your struggles, your ambitions, we will work together. Feeling better is within reach.

Starting college is a major life transition that can be exciting, but also challenging and overwhelming. Adjusting to new routines, increased academic demands, and changing social circles is difficult for many students. Nearly 76% of college students report experiencing moderate to severe stress or distress, with anxiety, loneliness, and depression being especially common during this stage of life. If you’re feeling stuck, anxious, or isolated, therapy offers a supportive space to process tough emotions and big changes. Together, we can develop coping strategies that build resilience and self-compassion, helping you navigate these challenges and rediscover your inner strengths. Change is hard, but you don’t have to figure it out alone!

I believe, together, we can help build this life you imagine. I specialize in working with adults who struggle with anxiety, stress, and life transitions.

Hello! My name is Christian Lee Vasquez, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), and I am the owner of CLV Counseling. I see counseling as a way to learn how to better cope with life in the present, while healing traumas & life-altering events from the past and worries of the future. If you feel comfortable partnering with a counselor who actively works to avoid shaming, judging, blaming, and guilting others in and out of the office, we will be a good match. I am currently offering in-person and video-sessions to best meet your needs. I really encourage you to explore through my site to get a sense of my voice and energy, as well as services offered. Having been in therapy myself for anxiety & life transitions, we'll partner together and identify pathways to achieve your goals while also creating a supportive therapeutic space & relationship. I enjoy working with folks who are anywhere on or off the gender spectrum, and in any type of relationship configuration (sex-positive therapist) CLV Counseling offers a comfortable & safe environment for everyone. I encourage you to fully explore my website and please feel free to call or email me with any questions.
Are you your own worst critic? You are the first one to point out your faults, and a part of you continues to feel like you’re not doing enough. Do you put the needs of others before your own - feeling that sick-to-your-stomach guilt when saying “no”? Do you find yourself escaping in work, hobbies, and relationships to avoid sitting with your thoughts and feelings? If these feel familiar, I am with you, and I would love to be a support for you. Let’s quiet that inner critic that can be so very loud, and make space for a voice with a bit more kindness. Let's work together towards more self-trust, self-compassion and self-esteem. I take a very relational approach to therapy. I want our time to feel like an exhale - a space where you can show up as you are, share openly, & feel understood. I enjoy bringing my personality into the space with humor and shared interests. Clients who work with me share that I am warm, thoughtful and compassionate, while also creating a space for growth. If you are interested in working together, please reach out for a free consultation. Don't see your concern listed in my profile? Let's chat and explore whether we would be a good match in working together.

Larson Mental Health is a mental health private practice offering psychotherapy and medication management to patients ages 6 and up. We have a diverse group of providers, both male and female, with varied specialities.
Transitions, even positive ones, often bring up feelings of being out of control. We are more likely to turn on auto pilot and rely on behaviors that don't really promote our own wellbeing. I really enjoy working with folks navigating these stages of life and truly finding peace in riding the waves of life. I have specialized training in disordered eating, anxiety and trauma. I utilize EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral therapy most often in my practice. The most important thing for me is for my client to feel connected and safe exploring their relationship with emotions within the therapeutic relationship. Whether you are totally new to therapy or are just coming back, I meet all my clients wherever they are. You don't need to be ready to make changes to start the process!
