Tatiana Turo-Handy, PsyD., PMH-C
Psychologist, PsyD. PMH-C
Dr. Tatiana Turo-Handy | Licensed Psychologist (CO) | Bilingual: Spanish & English | PSYPACT‑Authorized
Becoming a parent is one of the most profound transitions in life and it can also be one of the most challenging. I specialize in supporting individuals and families through the full spectrum of the perinatal journey, including fertility struggles, pregnancy and postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, birth trauma, perinatal grief and loss, and the complex emotional adjustment to parenthood.
I also work with adults experiencing generalized anxiety, depression, and interpersonal difficulties, offering a grounded, culturally responsive, and collaborative therapeutic space.
As a bilingual psychologist, I provide care in both Spanish and English. I also conduct comprehensive immigration psychological evaluations, including N‑648, T‑Visa, U‑Visa, VAWA, and Asylum evaluations.

Averill Hovey
Art Therapist, MA, MA, LPC-S, ATR-BC, EMDR
I believe therapy is most meaningful when you feel genuinely seen, understood, and able to show up as yourself. My approach is warm, collaborative, creative, and grounded in the belief that there is no single way to heal or create change.
I work with adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, relationships, life transitions, and the many complicated seasons of being human. As a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor, Board Certified Art Therapist, and EMDR therapist, I draw from talk therapy, art and expressive approaches, EMDR, and other experiential methods. You never need to consider yourself “artistic” to benefit from creative work, and we will always shape therapy around what feels useful and authentic to you.
I see my role not as someone who has all the answers, but as someone who can help you slow things down, notice patterns, understand yourself more deeply, and discover possibilities that may be difficult to see when you are in the middle of things. Therapy can hold both seriousness and humor, reflection and action, vulnerability and strength.
Above all, I hope to create a space where you can be curious about yourself without judgment and where the work feels human, connected, and uniquely yours.

A Different Lens Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, LPC, ADHD-CCSP, NCC
If you've spent years being the person who holds everything together, you're probably very good at looking fine. Underneath, it can feel like running a marathon every day just to keep up with things other people seem to do without thinking. Maybe you've been treated for anxiety for a long time and still sense that something is missing from the picture.
I work with adults who are starting to wonder whether ADHD is part of their story, and with those who already know and are tired of advice that boils down to "be more organized." I'm ADHD-certified, I have ADHD myself, and I've spent years working in healthcare, so I know both the clinical side and what it's like to live it. My goal is to help you make sense of your patterns without shame, and to find ways of working with your brain that last longer than one good week.

Somatic Spiritual Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MDiv, SEPc, Registered Psychotherapist
At Somatic Spiritual Counseling, we offer mindfulness- and body-based therapy for people who want to understand themselves more deeply and feel more at home in their lives. Our practitioners bring different specialties to the work, including somatic trauma therapy, couples counseling, support for depression and anxiety, transpersonal psychology, LGBTQ+ concerns, spirituality, and spiritual emergence.
Rather than focusing only on the stories you tell about what has happened, we at Somatic Spiritual Counseling also pay attention to what your body and nervous system are communicating. Through somatic healing, mindfulness, and compassionate exploration of unconscious patterns and beliefs, we help you work with what may be difficult to reach through talk therapy alone. Our approach to somatic spiritual counseling is grounded, individualized, and designed to support meaningful, lasting change.

Tori Buckley
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I mostly work with clients living and loving in unconventional ways (including artists, entrepreneurs, highly sensitive people & spiritual types) and work to cultivate a safe place for all people, most frequently working with clients in queer, ethically non-monogamous, & kinky relationships. Most of my clients are wanting to work on issues mostly unrelated to but within the context of these communities and lifestyles, and are tired of spending so much time explaining the context to therapists unfamiliar with their world. I also work with folks looking to explore these aspects of themselves for the first time.

Johanna Isaacs
Psychologist, Psy.D., PsyPACT Participant
Do you find yourself gripped by worry and struggling to get enough things done in a day, no matter what you do? You may be fed up with your endless to-do list that never gets done, feeling guilty that you are not good enough. You might not even remember a time things didn't feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you're ready for some relief. You're ready to make choices in your life that line up with what is important to you. You're ready to learn new skills to feel calm everyday. Most of all, you're ready to embrace who you are and enjoy your life.

Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Welcome! I'm a clinical psychologist with nearly a decade of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. I see children, adolescents, and young adults aged 5 and up with depression, chronic PTSD and dissociation, anxiety, OCD, and ADHD. My clients present with a range of concerns, including anxiety, ruminative thoughts, shame feelings, and perfectionism. Having had extensive experience in both psychodynamic psychotherapy and Trauma Focused-CBT, I take an integrative approach when working with clients-I collaborate with you and your child to tailor your goals and address needs for treatment.
While we would tailor treatment to further draw out and address your goals, I work to help you get to know yourself-to name and regulate a range of feelings, identify negative beliefs about yourself, others, or the world, and find healthier ways to cope with strong feelings. I also consider how your past history is relevant to your present relationships.
The decision to seek therapy is such a courageous one. I think, oftentimes, we can tell ourselves that we can "think through" or "solve problems" entirely on our own-it's so difficult to reach out for support! I work at a pace that feels manageable for you or your child, focusing on creating a warm and collaborative alliance for therapy and assessment.

Melaney Flaniken
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, B.S., Integrative Health Studies M.S., Clinical Mental Health Counseling
My counseling is rooted in trauma-informed care, existential exploration, and evidence-based practices like CBT and ERP. Whether you’re facing anxiety, navigating a life transition, or simply longing for more meaning and connection, we’ll work together to create a space where your voice matters and your goals guide the way.
You won’t get a one-size-fits-all approach here. Instead, you’ll be met exactly where you are—with compassion, curiosity, and a belief in your capacity to grow and heal.
If you're ready to explore your story, shift what’s no longer working, and step into a more empowered version of yourself, I invite you to reach out. Your healing starts with a single conversation—and I’m here when you’re ready.
