Erin McClure
Hello! It takes courage and strength to know when to seek a happier or more fulfilled life through counseling and so I thank you for taking that first step. I have 9 years of experience in the counseling field and have been a licensed as a Professional Counselor in both Wyoming and Colorado for the last 6 years. I believe the most important part of counseling is building a trusting, comfortable and collaborative relationship so that is what I strive for most. I therefore vow to create a safe and non judgmental space for you as we begin our work together. My theoretical orientation is Person Centered or Rogerian in nature as I believe everyone is different and therefore everyone's view of his or her own world and the ability to change it is different as well. I also practice Strength Based and Solution Focused counseling as well to help clients meet the goals they set for themselves. I hold a Masters Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Argosy University in Denver, Colorado. I have worked with clients ages 2 years old through the lifespan and enjoy the diversity of working with many different clients of different backgrounds. I have worked in private practice, community mental health agencies and school districts in order to help people overcome obstacles and reach their ultimate goals in life. Everyone needs to feel heard and connected at different times in their life and that is what I am here for!
Deedra Ivie
Hi, I’m Deedra Ivie. My goal is to help you find the strength that is already inside of you and bring that to light. Each client is different and has needs unique to their upbringing and life circumstances. I enjoy learning about your past circumstances, ways of thinking and current situation to find the best way to move forward to achieve progress and find peace. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with most clients suffering from depression and anxiety. I work with you to identify the exact feelings you are experiencing. Then we work on identifying the thought behind the feeling. After we find the exact issue prompting your emotions, we work to change the thoughts. We discuss coping skills to help you find relief in the midst of your intense emotions. If you are experiencing more extreme emotions I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy. For DBT, I walk you through the different stages of mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness. Distress tolerance and mindfulness are both a good place to start to help you find some relief from your symptoms. Then you can move forward to work on recognizing and regulating your emotions. Interpersonal effectiveness can also be very helpful. This helps you learn how to relate to others in your life in a healthier way. I graduated from Colorado Christian University with a Masters in Counseling. I have worked in Community Mental Health Centers, Treatment Facilities and I have a private practice. I am married with 4 children, whom I homeschool. Most of my time is spent with my family outdoors. We also have pigs, goats, dogs, chickens, bees and I garden. I look forward to finding out more about you and how I can help.

Jean McBride
Hello and thanks for your interest. I am a marriage and family therapist licensed in Colorado. I have been working with individuals, couples and families for 27 years. I consider my work one of the most important experiences of my life, and I feel honored to be invited so deeply into peoples’ lives. I believe in people and their ability to make changes. My counseling style is warm, intuitive and interactive, and I view our process together as a joint venture, with a focus on empowering my clients. I have written three books: Encouraging Words for New Stepmothers, Talking to Children About Divorce, and most recently, Raising Resilient Children with a Borderline or Narcissistic Parent. For 25 years I authored a curriculum and taught court-ordered classes for divorcing parents in Colorado, with just over 25,000 parents in total attending.

Melanie Hotz
Hello! My name is Melanie Hotz, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in Colorado with over 10 years of experience working with adults. I have a Bachelors's degree in General Psychology with a minor in Criminal Justice; I graduated with a Master's degree in Clinical Counseling from the University of Northern Colorado in 2008. I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) with a Person-Centered approach; I utilize mindfulness techniques along with CBT to help one learn tools to help manage uncomfortable emotions. I strive to meet clients where they are and adjust therapy to meet the needs of my client. I have experience with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and adjusting to changes in life. We all have a dialogue going on in our minds every day, many times we are not aware of how this "self-talk" affects our mood and choices in life. Using CBT I help clients become more aware of what they are telling themselves, how it affects them, and how to shift negative thoughts to be more neutral or positive. Therapy is hard, but I am here to help you achieve your goals. I can't do it for you, but I can be here to support you as you journey through the rough roads in life and hopefully help you get to the smoother road ahead, or find better equipment for the rough spots. I look forward to meeting you! Melanie
Dr. Michael Galvin
Dr. Michael Galvin I have over 40 years of experience as a psychologist with a wide variety of problems, first in a mental health center, and then in private practice. I have taught and trained therapists in three universities and also worked in executive coaching. I am now mostly retired, but still do a fair amount of training and consulting, and like to see a few clients. I studied quite a few of our traditional therapy methods and practiced them for many years, and I was always adopting what I thought was better. Then I discovered two approaches which impressed me as more effective than anything I had seen before: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Energy Psychology, and I now specialize in Energy Psychology. These methods have now been around for a couple of decades, are backed by a large body of research, and are producing rapid and lasting results for people. They can be applied to almost any condition and are especially effective with anxiety- and trauma-related issues. I would be happy to talk with you about getting the help you need.
Alexa Argianas
Do you find yourself struggling to manage overwhelming moments or thoughts? Have previous life experiences left you with feelings of confusion and self-doubt? Life itself is stressful enough, no one should have to navigate the change process on their own. I specialize in work with teenagers and adults, pairing cognitive and behavioral strategies to re-frame current issues and practice skills that will encourage the self-empowerment needed to make long-term changes. I have over 5 years of experience working with primary and secondary victims of childhood sexual abuse and human trafficking. As a licensed clinical social worker, with specialties related to abuse, neglect and family conflict I utilize strategies from Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Solution Focused Therapy to guide clients as they navigate their own thoughts, feelings and behaviors. As a certified social caseworker I am especially skilled in navigating internal and external resources to help clients help themselves. We will work together to determine what goals and changes are most important to you, and how you can achieve them. I root my practice in the belief that partnership, transparency and a client’s self-determination are most important. I strive to create a supportive connection that allows opportunity for validation, challenge, and growth. I will cultivate a supportive relationship, follow your lead, and hold you accountable to the changes you’d like to see in your life. I look forward to working with you to identify what your goals are and a potential plan to empower you to reach them.

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour.

- Counseling with a psychiatrist: $150-$500
- Counseling with therapists: $100-300

While many psychologists in Delta may not take health insurance, some therapists in the state of Colorado may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session.

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Delta?
One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a Delta therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide.

Counselors and therapists are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions in Delta therapy sessions.
Delta therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs.

How should I prepare for my first therapy session with a Delta counselor?
Before seeing your Delta therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the therapy process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, you can let our therapists know if you have any concerns about therapy or feel unsure about what to talk about. Delta therapists here may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy in Delta.
Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine?
Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what therapy entails. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or condition to attend therapy. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback and advice from a therapist. A Delta licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.
Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find through therapy with a Delta counselor can be dependent on your process.
People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.
Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?
Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based psychologist in Delta, Colorado can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
Delta has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online therapy to assist clients in their healing journey.

Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.
Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?
The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
