Renee Joyce
Hello! You are doing great by getting started!! I hope you start to feel a bit better now that you’ve taken this next step in your therapy journey. My name is Renee and I am passionate about working with folks who feel overwhelmed, stuck, burned out and who feel like they just need a break in life or clarity for what to do next. Most of my clients have experienced trauma, anxiety, fatigue, stress and overwhelm and many have been fighting so hard for things to feel different within themselves, their relationship, work, family or other areas of their lives. Clients initially describe experiencing one or more of the following: *High Anxiety, rumination or overthinking, panic, deep fear of making a mistake or letting others down or not being accepted *Difficulty focusing or staying motivated, wanting to get ALL the things done yet it is feels hard to start with just one *Overwhelm with trying to do everything and feeling like there is not enough time, energy or support *Crash outs with long periods of spiraling or numbing on the couch or in bed and a pile of laundry or dishes waiting *Taking on too much at work, at home and/or in relationships and not feeling the same energy or effort reciprocated *Trying to heal or stop conflict in a relationship yet feeling like something is still their fault or that nothing improves *Trauma flashbacks, memories, nightmares, triggers, feeling stuck in fight, flight or freeze mode *High people pleasing efforts yet still feeling hurt lonely or dissatisfied in friendships, family or relationships *Shame-deep shame or guilt, fear of failure, not feeling like “enough” or feeling like “too much” *Desiring to really follow their dreams or figure out who they and what they are passionate about yet struggling to know where to start or to believe in themselves right now *Stuck in a survival pattern of work/school, eat, sleep, repeat and wanting more out of life If you related to any of those experiences, please book your first appointment with me! We will start by getting to know who you are right now at this stage of your life, what is working for you and what isn't so we can set goals that feel right for you. We also go at the pace that feels comfortable for you. I believe people can grow, heal, change with the right tools, skills, supports and time. My approach is strength-based, client-centered and I incorporate evidenced based techniques and resources to help you along your path forward. Many clients work on short-term goals to experience relief or improvement within 4-12 sessions. Several clients also continue deeper work for longer term therapy to strengthen personal development, self-understanding, trauma recovery and more. My primary areas of focus are in: ADHD, Anxiety, Attachment, Autism, Break ups, Burnout (at work, school or parenting), Conflict in relationships, Communication, CPTSD, Dating, Divorce or Separation, Identity Affirming Care+, Complex Grief and Bereavement, Neurodivergence, PTSD, Stress, Sensory Overwhelm and Adults with dysfunctional or toxic parents or family, and Adults who were once in foster-care. I work with persons aged 18 and beyond through individual therapy. I look forward to learning more about you and in working with you to support your goals! With gratitude, Renee Joyce Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Christine O'Neill
Hello! I am a therapist with a passion for helping people to make positive changes in their lives. Throughout my 17 year career I have worked with many different populations in a myriad of ways and have found that most people want to have a better life and just need that catalyst to make it possible. My style lends itself to be more on the coaching side and I often times have clients work on different small tasks outside of the therapy session. I would consider my counseling style to be warm, interactive, and goal oriented. Humor is a tool I use regularly to bring reality to difficult situations and to show that while life can be tumultuous, there should always be room to find laughter. I have extensive experience in mood disorders, teen issues, addictions, life changes, divorce, and family issues. I lend more towards messaging and live messaging therapy as I feel it gives the client more time to really think about what they want to say and to be able to better absorb the responses. You have taken the first and often times hardest step towards improving your future! I hope to hear from you soon and I look forward to working towards a more fulfilled life.

Hello! Please Note: I would like to extend my expertise in treating trauma to those who have been affected by recent shooting at Club Q in Colorado Springs. Please reach out for help, you don't have to go it alone. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, a certified addictions counselor, and Licensed Professional Counselor with over 35 years of experience working in a variety of clinical settings and diverse populations. As of recent, I have been incorporating into my traditional practice, alternatives to treatment as a Preparation and Integration Specialist. I have a very special interest in assisting our Veterans, First Responders, Law Enforcement and their families regarding trauma informed care/PTSD. I sincerely believe that addressing any trauma struggles in a manner that the client finds beneficial, will also assist with anxiety, depression, relationship and addiction issues. I work to provide a safe space for my clients to address issues in order to feel better and to promote the acquisition of a skill set for future problem solving. I would love to work with you if you are a resident of Colorado, USA. My therapeutic approach is a mix of philosophies, techniques and styles which I feel have been effective in my 35 years of experience as a clinician. I believe that something unique to my practice is the idea that education around what is troubling us is valuable; for example, becoming familiar with how PTSD effects our Central Nervous System and so forth. I believe knowledge is power and I hope to empower my clients to live happier, fuller lives.

Allow me to help put 'life' back into living with a new perspective. I do not provide faith based therapy nor prayer in session. If this is the type of therapy you are looking for, I will not be a good fit and recommend seeking someone with a seminary background. Thank you very much. I care. Let's talk!

Eric Martinez
When imagining my ideal client, I see individuals from diverse backgrounds—LGBTQ+ youth navigating identity and acceptance, juveniles facing emotional and behavioral challenges during critical developmental years, adults striving for personal growth or healing from past trauma, and men working to overcome stigma around mental health and express vulnerability. Each client brings a unique set of needs: the need to be heard without judgment, to feel safe in their identity, to rebuild trust, and to move toward a more empowered and authentic self. My approach is grounded in existential-phenomenological psychology, which means I focus on understanding each person’s unique lived experience—how they make meaning, face uncertainty, and navigate questions of identity, purpose, and connection. Alongside this foundation, I integrate evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I tailor my approach to meet the needs of each client—whether that’s a teen struggling with identity, an adult working through anxiety or life transitions, someone processing trauma, or a man learning to express emotion in a safe and healthy way.
