Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Grand Junction, CO

Hey there! I'm Annestazia (she/hers) and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor that understands starting therapy can be overwhelming- especially if you're struggling with holding everything together on the outside while feeling anxious on the inside. I work with adults across all stages of their life experiences, but have specialized training in recovery from substances, trauma, ADHD, emotional regulation, and life stressors including grief and loss, relationship troubles, anxiety and depression.

Life can be overwhelming, and sometimes the challenges we face—whether it’s the stress of being a new parent, navigating a difficult relationship, managing trauma, or dealing with anxiety and depression—can feel insurmountable. I believe that every person has inherent strengths that can be harnessed to create positive change. In our work together, we will explore your unique needs and build practical, personalized tools that empower you to navigate life’s challenges with confidence.

With over 20 years of experience in diverse behavioral health settings, I bring a wealth of knowledge and understanding to help you navigate challenges. I specialize in maternal mental health, trauma, women's issues, relational issues, family conflict, substance use concerns, anxiety, and work or career-related stress.

Hi. My name is Melinda. I have been working in the field of Mental Health and Substance Use/Abuse since 2005. I have been trained and offer resources for CBT, DBT, Solution-Focused, Mindfulness, Trauma-informed and many other styles of therapy.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) specializing in mental health and trauma, I provide compassionate, client-centered care. I believe healing is a holistic process that addresses both mind and body. Working collaboratively with clients, I create a safe space to explore experiences and heal from past wounds.

You to become an expert "on you".

You learn about your defenses, your triggers, and your trauma. You learn what your style pertaining to being challenged and attached?

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who works primarily with children, adolescents, young adults, and families navigating emotional intensity, relational stress, and life transitions. My practice focuses on helping young people feel more regulated, understood, and confident in who they are, while supporting caregivers in strengthening connection and emotional safety at home.

I have training in attachment-based and experiential therapies, including Emotion Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), and I incorporate trauma-informed approaches to help clients build insight and resilience. I am especially passionate about supporting youth through nature-based therapy and providing affirming care for LGBTQ+ clients.

My background includes working with adolescents experiencing anxiety, depression, family conflict, identity exploration, and emotional dysregulation. I strive to create a space where clients feel safe, respected, and empowered to grow.

Something brought you here. Maybe it's the anxiety that won't quiet down, the depression that won't go away, your reliance on substances holding you back, or the weight of traumatic experiences you've been carrying longer than you can remember. Or maybe it's something else entirely. I'm Bradley — a master's level mental health and addiction counselor who knows what it means to be human and how to navigate the challenges of our full human experience. I spent over three decades in business, technology, consulting, teaching, training, and military service before devoting my life to service. Since 2015, I've worked as a mindfulness, meditation, and contemplative wisdom teacher, a somatic practice guide and natural medicine facilitator, a researcher, writer, and now as a therapist. Today, I help my adult clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and the deeper questions that often lie beneath them. I also support people through major life transitions, grief and loss, existential inquiry, identity exploration, career alignment, family dysfunction, relationship dynamics, and more — combining evidence-based practice, modern neuroscience, applied psychophysiology, and contemplative reflection into a holistic approach that focuses on the root causes and conditions that cause suffering in our lives. I know what it is to stand on one side of the doorway and I know what it is to stand on the other side of that very same doorway — and now I help others cross the threshold for themselves... If I can help you cross that threshold, if you're ready, then I'm here.

As your Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I want you to know that I am here for you every step of the way. You can trust that I am fully committed to your well-being and dedicated to providing you with the highest quality of care.

Something positive, warm, and uplifting about me as your PMHNP is that I genuinely believe in your strength and resilience. I see your potential for growth and healing, even during the toughest of times. Together, we'll navigate through the challenges.

I’m really glad you’re here.

Many of the people I work with are used to being capable, thoughtful, and strong for others, but inside, something feels off. You might be dealing with anxiety, depression, burnout, or a sense that you’ve lost connection with yourself. Sometimes it’s not just about what’s happening right now, but patterns that have been quietly shaping your life for a long time.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Colorado, with over 20 years experience working across a wide range of settings, including community mental health, mobile crisis and co-response, skilled nursing, public health, and critical access hospitals. This background allows me to meet you where you are, whether you’re navigating everyday stress or something more complex, to bring both depth and compassion to our work.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, life transitions (career, relationships, health, identity shifts), and the lingering impact of stress or past experiences.
