Grief counselors and therapists in Lafayette, CO

I love helping people develop skills to improve their lives, communication and relationships. It is important to know that one theory does not meet everyone’s needs, therefore I use many different approaches to helping my clients to build their own best version of themselves.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and work with adult clients (18+) who are looking to create a sense of self-understanding and stability in their lives. My style of counseling is compassionate & direct, collaborative & transparent.

With over 17 years in the mental health field, I have worked with youth and adults across inpatient, outpatient, and partial hospitalization (PHP) settings. For the past 10 years, I have specialized in trauma, supporting clients navigating mood and trauma-related challenges, including combat, developmental, and complex trauma.

I am trained in EMDR, CBT, and CPT, and I approach therapy with openness, curiosity, and respect for each client’s unique story. I believe therapy should feel collaborative, affirming, and grounded in genuine connection.

I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Denver and am passionate about helping clients heal, grow, and reconnect with themselves.

I’m a board-certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience in healthcare and more than a decade as a nurse practitioner. My work blends evidence-based medication management with an integrative, trauma-informed lens. I believe effective care looks beyond symptoms to understand the person as a whole.

I’m a Colorado‐licensed therapist with over 20 years of experience helping people move through life’s hardest moments. I work with a calm, steady presence and a deep respect for each person’s story. My style is warm, direct, and grounded in real‐world experience. I care about creating a space where you feel understood, supported, and never judged. My goal is to help you feel stronger, clearer, and more connected to yourself.

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.

Most people who finally reach out have been putting it off for a while, waiting to feel ready or wondering whether what they're going through is serious enough to count. I'm Victoria, a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 10 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and seniors navigating anxiety, depression, relationship stress, and the life transitions that knock you off your footing. I also hold specialized certifications in substance use, so if that's part of what you're carrying, you're in good hands. Clients often describe me as approachable, honest, and steady.

Reaching out can be hard and I am here to help begin the process of healing and being there to help us become a better you. My goal and desire is to help teach you and provide you the essentials to overcome your obstacles. When life gets overwhelming at times, we forget to take care of ourselves. Depression and anxiety does not have to be a part of your everyday life.
