More about Colleen
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I offer a warm, caring presence where clients feel truly seen and heard. I support individuals navigating trauma, life transitions, and neurodivergence. I believe healing begins by building a more compassionate relationship with yourself—through both rest and action. My goal is to empower you to develop self-trust and make meaningful changes aligned with the life you want and deserve. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify and shift limiting core beliefs, creating a space for both healing and accountability.
