Sarah C. Benoit
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC, LMHC, PLLC
Engaging in therapy can be a big decision. It can feel intimidating and uncomfortable. Most people do not like to feel uncomfortable. My goal is walk beside you in your journey to healing and wellness so that you are open to the vulnerability and risk taking associated with growth and personal progress. Having been in this field for 20 years, I have gained the clinical and academic skills and knowledge needed to effectively do this work. More importantly I value being in relationship and compassionately hold space for you. We all do things when we are ready even if we don't realize it. That being said, I believe in working at your pace and being respectful of your process.

Vida Mendez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, EMDR II
It’s like a video stuck on a loop that keeps playing over, and over, and over… You can’t get the images out of your head. Looking over your shoulder, being easily frightened; it wasn’t you before, but it is now. Things look bleaker than they did before it happened. Remembering or not remembering, you’re unsure of which is worse. Is this your new normal? To others, you look like you’re keeping it together. It couldn’t be farther from the truth. You’re hiding behind a thin veil of normalcy and you're worried about what would happen if the curtain were pulled back.
So is there any good news? Yes! With the right therapy, trauma-related struggles are some of the most treatable mental health conditions. I am trained in an approach called EMDR which helps you recall disturbing experiences and reprocess them. This causes your memories to feel more neutral or even peaceful when recalled- bringing harmony back to your life
It's time to deal with the past and that’s why you’re still reading. Give me a call today to schedule a free 20-minute phone call. It's not too late to get back to who you are and what you want your life to be! I am located in Loveland, CO and I am licensed to provide teletherapy to anyone in Colorado and Massachusetts.

Marissa Cashman
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Obstacles and difficulties often occur in life. Seeking guidance from a licensed professional can be a wonderful way of gaining coping skills and a different perspective. Feeling anxious and apprehensive when meeting with a therapist for the first time is understandable. However, once the process begins, that worry usually washes away. My goal is to use empathy, humor, and clinical skills to help you obtain insight, clarity, and courage becoming your most authentic self.
