Elsa Atcherley, LPC

About me

I am an individual therapist licensed in Colorado with over 10 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. . I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, OCD, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My therapy style is warm, and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I believe in individualism, meaning each person is unique with unique needs. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, person centered, problem solving therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs, as well as specific approach.

It takes courage and strength to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!
