Fountain, Colorado is in the heart of El Paso County and is only 10 miles south of Colorado Springs. Some of the major points of interest in the city include Cheyenne Mountain State Park, with hiking, biking, camping, and picnicking; Fountain Creek Regional Park, that has 460 acres of trails, fields, ponds, and picnic spots; and the Big Johnson Reservoir, which is a large open space with a 280-acre lake.

Fountain has plenty of dedicated professionals experienced in helping with these issues.

Naomi Kaplan
I am a licensed clinical social worker, licensed in the states of Colorado, Kansas and Missouri. I have been in my chosen filed as a clinical social worker for over thirty years. I started working in the schools as both a school social worker and as a school based mental health therapist all in Colorado. Most recently, I have spent the last ten years of my practice working with adults who struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, caregiver issues, aging, life transitions, grief and loss. I am described as empathic, kind, a good listener, insightful, and highly ethical. It is my belief that as a therapist it is not your job to cater to me but my job to make therapy right for you. I believe a collaborative therapeutic process is crucial in creating a lasting and trusting relationship between a therapist and a client. Because of this, you will find that I utilize a variety of therapeutic models in my practice, adjusting accordingly for my clients. I enjoy and can work with people of all backgrounds, although I am not a Christian counselor. I look forward to partnering with you in your journey toward emotional health and healing. I am humbled and honored to work with you.

I have come to counseling a little bit later in life than some; I had already completed a successful career and was looking for something different. I completed graduate school in Texas and have since become licensed in both Texas and Colorado. The majority of my work is in general counseling and I also work with couples and families. I have worked for University of Texas schools as well as for the University of Alabama. While working in the UT system schools I helped with veterans issues and transition. During Covid I provided counseling for military families and have provided counseling with agencies contracted to provide those services.

Alison McCandless
Hi all! I am Ali and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have worked for a community mental health agency in Chicago for the past 3 years and I am originally from Southern California. I just recently moved to Denver, CO this summer. I am currently licensed in Illinois and Colorado. My experience is working in community mental health, I engaged with low-income folks with various mental health needs, such as life stressors, mood and psychotic disorders, anxiety, depression and trauma. I believe everyone has a story to tell and that each one matters. I use different approaches depending on client’s needs. I engage Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic model and strengths-based approach. In addition to building in coping skills or behavioral modification, I take time gathering client’s history in order to help the client make connections and meaning of their past experiences. I value using biopsychosocial assessment which gages client’s level of functioning and prevalence of symptoms. In 2023, the world can be and feel like a messed-up place… getting support for your mental health is important. I serve my clients without judgment and with hope. If you think we would be a good fit, I would love to meet you and support you in your therapy journey!
