Couples therapists in Durango, CO

I am currently accepting new clients. Do you ever feel unseen, unheard, or like you carried responsibilities no child should have had to? If that resonates, you are not alone. I work with adults and couples who grew up with an emotionally immature parent and still feel the effects on their relationships, self worth, and sense of self. Together we will explore these dynamics and how they shape your life today, and I will help you build the insight, confidence, and self trust to move forward. I also support people through anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, life transitions, and the relationship struggles that come with all of it.

Hi, I'm Alejandra Hartbeck, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) providing virtual therapy to individuals across Colorado in both English and Spanish. I have experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and other emotional concerns. My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, build practical coping skills, and work toward meaningful, lasting change. I believe therapy should be collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs.

Greetings and thank you for checking out my profile! I've worked with kids, teens, adults and families for over 20 years, and have a passion for helping people feel better.

Emotional distress stems from learning unhealthy habits and patterns. This has motivated me to focus on healthy integration of our emotional experience, which can lead to healing from depression, anxiety and trauma. To best help you with healing from these patterns, I use research backed methodologies including ACT, CBT, and EMDR.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, life transitions, or past experiences? Do you want help making sense of your story and reconnecting with yourself? I work with children, teens, and adults navigating growth and healing. With 17+ years in education and 10 as a school counselor, I offer a warm, down-to-earth space to feel heard. I believe each of us has an inner child worthy of care, and I can help you gently reconnect. Whether you’re feeling stuck or seeking clarity, I’m here to walk alongside you. My specialties include trauma, life transitions, and managing anxiety. I’m currently accepting new clients.

I am a queer therapist and have been a licensed therapist for over a decade. I graduated with my Masters in Mental Health Counseling in 2013, and have focused my career on the intersection of eating disorder treatment and the queer community. I am passionate about my community role and am excited to meet you! I have experience working with clients who are struggling with health disabilities, chronic conditions, ADHD, OCD, end of life issues and more. I encourage you to book a session to see if we're a good fit!

Most of us haven’t made it through life without a few bruises. Sometimes we lose touch with ourselves along the way, shaped by what we’ve been through and the weight of those experiences.

That doesn’t mean anything is wrong with you. It means you adapted. Sometimes beautifully. Sometimes painfully. Often both.

Therapy is a space to slow down, get curious, and gently begin untangling what you’ve been carrying. Together, we can explore your story with compassion, reconnect with who you are beneath old patterns, and move toward a way of living that feels more aligned, grounded, and authentic.
