Christopher Cannon
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, CAS, SEP
If you’ve done years of talk therapy and still find yourself stuck in the same patterns, part of the story may be held in your body. As a licensed counselor and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, I work directly with the nervous system, helping you notice what’s happening physically in the moment and giving old survival responses room to settle and finish.
I came to this work through my own developmental trauma, addiction, and depression. That history helps me meet people struggling with alcohol, drugs, or pornography without judgment, whether you’re aiming for abstinence or harm reduction. I hold a Colorado Certified Addiction Specialist credential and have been in practice since 2014.
I also work with complex PTSD, adoptee struggles, and couples, drawing on PACT and attachment-based approaches. More than twenty years of meditation and a master’s in Mindfulness-Based Transpersonal Counseling from Naropa University inform everything I do, so spiritual questions are welcome. Expect warmth, curiosity, and some dry humor.
Online therapy is available to Colorado residents. Clients outside Colorado can work with me through somatic coaching by video. Private pay, superbills available, free consultation.

Pat Reynolds
Therapist, LCAS, DOT-SAP, LAADC
Choosing a counselor is an important decision. My approach is built on the belief that healing occurs through connection, trust, and hope.
With more than a decade of experience working with individuals affected by substance use disorders, I understand that recovery is not a one size fits all process. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered.
My professional experience, specialized training in addiction counseling, and commitment to individualized care allow me to meet clients where they are in their journey. I combine clinical expertise with practical strategies that promote growth, accountability, and long term success.
My goal is simple: to help people discover their strengths, overcome obstacles, and move forward with confidence and purpose.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Finding a therapist shouldn’t feel overwhelming—or like a guessing game. At Nour Counseling, we take the time to actually listen before we match you, so you’re not left scrolling through profiles trying to figure it out on your own. We consider what you’re looking for, what you’ve experienced in past therapy (what worked and what didn’t), and the kind of connection you want to feel in the room. We’re also clear about our values—our clinicians are culturally responsive and affirming, and we hold space for clients navigating complex identities and sociopolitical realities without minimizing or dismissing them. Our goal is simple: to help you get connected to a therapist who not only has the right expertise, but who genuinely feels like a good fit.
