Mary Jackson

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Grand Junction, CO


I began this journey just seeking to learn about psychology and the nature of human behavior. The more I learned, the more I became fascinated with how resilient humans are in the face of significant challenges. However, what I found was that people will continue to live with underlying pain, because of the stigma previously put on people seeking help with mental health and trauma issues. I found that people created their own ways of coping and it often involved creating more harm. I knew at this time that I wanted to help people begin to face tough emotions and move toward healing the emotional pain.

I received a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology in 1991 and a Master of Science Degree in General Psychology in 1993 from Pittsburg State University, Pittsburg, KS. I later went back for another Master of Science Degree in Counseling Psychology from Avila University in Kansas City, MO in 2014.

I have worked in the areas of domestic violence, at-risk youth, at-risk families, foster and adoption, and addiction. I specialize in working with trauma and addiction.

Risa Stutz

Therapist

Virtual • Colorado


If you're feeling stretched thin—anxious, exhausted, or stuck in patterns you can't quite name—you don't have to keep pushing through it alone. I'm Risa, an LCSW with over 10 years of experience helping adults move from overwhelmed to grounded.

I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma and PTSD, grief, anger, relationship strain, identity questions, and difficult life transitions. Many of my clients look high-functioning on the outside while struggling underneath—racing thoughts, disrupted sleep, burnout, or a quiet sense that something needs to change.

Over my career I've supported clients in community mental health, geriatric care, veterans' health, and corrections—settings that taught me to meet people across very different circumstances without judgment. I earned my Master's in 2012 and have practiced ever since, with particular experience supporting women and the LGBTQIA+ and transgender community around identity, relationships, and self-worth.

Whatever brought you here, my aim is for you to feel understood from our very first conversation.

Therapist

My name is Celeste and I'm an LPC in CO. I work I have always wanted to be a person that could have a positive impact on someone’s life. A person they could talk to with no judgment but instead empathize with them in a safe environment. Sometimes all that is needed is someone to actually hear what they are saying. I enjoy working with people to help them learn how to understand feelings and where they come from. To help them to communicate effectively, express themselves fully, and achieve their individual goals.

Whitney (Bree) Duran

Therapist

Virtual • Durango, CO


My primary focus is working with adolescents, families, and adults, though I have a range of experience working with people of all ages and many different demographics. In particular, I have a strong background in working with at-risk youth, kinship caregivers, and foster/adoptive families. I also have a background of working with young adults transitioning to independent living, as well as adults of all ages.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Colorado, and have been practicing as a therapist since 2022. Prior to this, I worked with youth, adults, and families in a variety of case management roles, including in schools, domestic violence shelters, shelters for those without housing, and families experiencing various systems involvement. This has given me an understanding of the many challenges life can bring, and equipped me with the tools to support you in navigating various barriers and difficulties.

Therapist

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.
