Erika Alhashmi

I am a dually-licensed professional counselor and addiction counselor with the State of Colorado. With nearly two decades of experience in working with a myriad of issues whether it's improving life satisfaction/balance, health and wellness, couples relationship or managing societal pressures and expectations. I also have experience in treating mood disorders, depression and anxiety disorders, substance use related disorders, trauma and stress-related disorders in addition to grief work.

My work includes individual, couple, and group work in both in-patient and out-patient settings in addition to performing mental health assessments. I use a blend of emotionally focused, existential, attachment, cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavioral, and psychoanalytic therapy.

Whether it's individual, couples, or family therapy, my practice is challenging and direct but not judgmental; am open-minded and willing to let individuals explore options in life that may be very different from my own. I am someone who doesn't rush to diagnose and pathologize, and who has a keen understanding of the intricacies of life and the human experience.
