I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) with Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with over 12 years of experience working with children, youth, and families.
Hi there! My name is Sam. I am a trained person-centered therapist with 6 years of clinical experience supporting clients of all ages. I have worked with a wide range of client concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. I hold a master of science degree in clinical mental health counseling from the University of Wyoming along with a bachelor of arts in psychology from the University of Denver.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor for 20+ years I have gained a lot of experience to draw upon. I understand that seeking help can be one of the hardest things to do, so good job on acknowledging that talking to someone could be helpful.

I’m Matt Larock and I’m a licensed clinical therapist and a licensed clinical addiction counselor in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. I am trained in Somatic Experiencing trauma treatment and I’m also a certified nature-based coach. In a former life, I owned a 300-seat restaurant for 14 years. I’m no stranger to stress and addiction.
I help my clients navigate the challenges that have had them stuck for just a few months or stuck for over a few decades.
I work with men, women, teens, young adults and parents who want to stop white knuckling their way through life’s difficulties and get the tools to make changes that stick for the long haul.
I help men and women of all ages who have challenges with substance abuse, I help parents of struggling teens and young adults who are navigating how to help their child eventually become a thriving adult. I help young adults heal their past, take responsibility for their future and move forward in a healthy way. And I help all kinds of clients of all ages heal anxiety, trauma, stress and other difficulties.
It’s exhausting to keep trying the old way on the same issues. It’s exhausting to keep spinning your wheels. It’s exhausting to be mired in anxiety and it’s exhausting to let trauma go untreated for years and years.
I am accepting new clients.
We all need someone to listen to, understand, and support us, especially during times of uncertainty and transition. My goal is to create a safe, therapeutic space in which you feel comfortable to be yourself and share your fears, hopes, and struggles. As each client is a unique individual, I feel the process of counseling should be tailored to meet your specific needs. I believe you are the expert in your own life, and have the innate ability to heal.
I try every day to be an authentic human who loves and respects the individuality of all other humans. Being a clinical social worker for 25 years, is reflected in my personal values and faith system. My goal is to spread kindness like confetti which has spanned serving in Baltimore, Jacksonville, Atlanta and Eagle County, CO. I have a solution focused mindset, believe in the mind body connection and giving ourselves grace. Life is not always easy and sometimes we need short term professional support, some sunshine, a deep breath, a 20 second hug and some new found eyes on the situation.


Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Salida starts with getting clear on what kind of support you're looking for. Common reasons people seek therapy include anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and trauma. Look for a licensed provider — such as an LPC, LCSW, or psychologist — who has experience with your specific concerns. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and approach before you commit.
Salida is a small community, and the number of in-person providers can be limited. Virtual therapy is a practical way to connect with a wider range of licensed Colorado therapists from your home. Whether you prefer in-person sessions in the Upper Arkansas Valley or virtual visits, choosing a provider who fits your schedule and communication style matters just as much as their credentials.
Therapy in Colorado can be expensive without coverage, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Confirm your specific coverage on Headway to see what's available in your area.
