Michael Heckendorn

My name is Michael Heckendorn, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Colorado and a nationally certified counselor (NCC) through the National Board of Certified Counselors. I have over a decade of experience in the mental health field in a variety of settings, e.g., community mental health, university settings, public schools, and private practice. I specialize in adolescent and young adult complexities.

I utilize an eclectic approach to counseling, pulling from several different theories and modalities -- humanistic, logotherapy, choice theory, and trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy. I specialize in several areas including mindfulness, self-concept, dialectical behavioral therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy. I use a variety of approaches because I recognize that not all strategies work for everyone. Plus, I want you to receive a therapeutic experience that suits you.

When working together, you can expect to be met with genuineness, empathy, and unconditional positive regard. Our sessions will always be engaging, thought provoking, and challenging.
