Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Grand Junction, CO

I hold a Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work from Walden University, with a concentration in trauma-informed care. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC), as well as certified in Art Therapy, Play Therapy, and Sandplay Therapy. My early career centered on supporting children and families navigating trauma, substance use, and instability, as well as individuals transitioning from incarceration and reintegrating into their communities. These experiences continue to shape my person-centered, integrative approach to care.

In my practice, I support adults and children through an individualized, holistic lens. My therapeutic philosophy draws from Person-Centered, Holistic, and Psychodynamic therapies—approaches that value empathy, self-awareness, and exploration of the connections between past and present. I believe all people have an innate capacity for growth, resilience, and healing when they are met with safety, compassion, and curiosity.

I'm a psychologist helping clients to navigate transition and overcome destructive patterns. I have expertise in treating anxiety, ocd, adhd, trauma, depression, addiction, recovery, and relationship challenges. I've had a private practice for over 10 years and work with adult clients at all stages of life. I earned my doctorate in Clinical Psychology at California Institute of Integral Studies, with intensive training at the Portia Bell Hume Center, Kaiser, UCSF, VA and the Jung Institute.

Hi there, I'm Leigh!

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and certified Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapist with 17 years in the Mental and Behavioral Health Field, 11 of those as a Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I have been trained in a number of empirically supported as well as alternative modalities and approaches to meet you where you are on your journey, including but not limited to EMDR, Somatic approaches, Internal Family Systems, DBT, and Solution Focused Interventions.

Life is full of ups and downs, and I have learned from both personal and professional experience that 'suffering in silence' is not really sustainable or healthy for anyone. You deserve to feel heard and to function at your best level. I have 6 years' experience post-graduation from the University of Texas with helping folks do just that. From nonprofits, to medical clinics, to correctional facilities, to teletherapy, I have connected deeply and partnered with many clients and families to trudge through some of their darkest hours and find more validation, calmness, and acceptance. My fluency in Spanish has given me opportunities to break down walls and connect with hundreds of clients whose cultural background is different than mine. I would be honored to have the chance to see if working together is a good fit for your healing journey.

My name is Danielle, and I was born and raised in Colorado Springs. As a former college athlete, I have always valued movement, balance, and living an active lifestyle. In my free time, I enjoy swimming, hiking, running, biking, and spending weekends in the mountains, along with being a mother to my two precious children! 🥰

I earned my Master’s degree from University of Denver, where I discovered my passion for psychology and understanding human behavior. Throughout my career, I have worked with children, adolescents, teenagers, and adults across a variety of treatment settings. I have extensive experience supporting individuals struggling with eating disorders, depression, anxiety, trauma, learning disabilities, autism, personality disorders, identity concerns, and other mental health challenges. I believe there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to therapy. I enjoy taking an integrative and individualized approach to treatment, meeting clients where they are while supportively walking alongside them throughout their journey. My therapeutic style is compassionate, empathetic, and client-centered. My goal is to help clients cultivate inner peace, self-acceptance, and resilience as they navigate life’s many transitions and adventures.
