Dr. Kylie Rogalla
Greetings! My name is Kylie, and I have been a practicing counselor and counselor educator for the past 14 years. I hold a doctorate in Counselor Education and Supervision, a Master's degree in School and Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Coaching. I have experience serving a wide variety of young clientele within alternative high schools, private elementary schools, and a program serving youth with diverse special needs. My primary clinical practice has been serving women, children, and families in crisis and recovering from trauma. This included six years in emergency non-profit shelters for clients facing intimate partner violence and comorbid substance abuse. I'm currently a professor in a Master's level counseling program where I teach and supervise counselors-in-training, write and publish research in the field, and present at local, state, and national conferences. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Licensed Clinical Addictions Counselor (LCAC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), and a Board Certified-Telemental Health (BC-TMH) provider as well. My therapeutic approach intentionally integrates various theoretical models dependent on client need. I believe deepened self-awareness is fundamental to long-term positive change. We all have blind spots, and this is often where our most painful pieces are buried. I believe I can help clients increase their holistic self-awareness by shining light onto irrational beliefs, cognitive distortions, existential anxieties, and potential insecure attachment styles. Most people in our lives respond or react to our overt behaviors. I'm interested in understanding the intent behind such behaviors, which is often out of awareness (unconscious). Many of us suffer various forms of trauma, and our brains and bodies create intricate defenses to protect ourselves from future pain. No one is broken, "crazy," or hopeless. Some simply need help understanding why they think, feel, and act the way they do in response to psychological threat. When we feel heard, seen, and validated for our circumstances, the defenses that no longer serve us start to loosen their grip on our lives.

Therapy is about renewed hope- kind of like seeing light emanate from a dark tunnel or getting an ah-ha moment that helps you activate change in a 'safe' place. It is seldom easy but is always an opportunity to move forward. Over the last 30 years, I've watched families, children and individuals decide to heal. What a pleasure! Collaboratively, we too can explore with grace and honesty the issues that hold you back. Here the goal is growth, whether in your relationships, families, spirituality, communication skills, or your work place. I am here to journey with you! My passions are to watch marriages recover, to see children laugh again, and to support you as you gain insight into how God wants to touch your life. Specialties include working with children, marriages, and groups. This can include everything from healthy boundaries to communication to other-awareness. I use a variety of techniques to match all ages and stages of life. Music, art, play, laughter, role-playing, poetry, journaling, talking, prayer and thought-stopping are some of these techniques. I look forward to sharing renewed hope!

Alberto Fernandez Gonzalez
I am a bilingual therapist with over 4 years of experience as a Mental Health Counselor in New York and Colorado. I specialize in working directly with individuals. My approach to therapy is clear and direct. By creating a safe space for exploration and compassionate inquiry, I help clients explore, identify, and understand the underlying patterns in their lives that lead to feeling stuck and dissatisfied. While gaining awareness of our mental processes is crucial to our healing journey, true transformation also requires effective tools that we can apply to our daily lives and relationships. My clinical approach, combined with training in somatic experiences, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and trauma-informed psychotherapies, along with a clear and communicative style, can be very effective in helping clients achieve positive, lasting change in their lives.

Michael Capre
"I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul" - William Henley. People want to feel in control. But, when people experience internal or external change, and resist such, they can feel a loss of control. Such a loss can manifest itself in a variety of ways. By identifying values, increasing insight, developing integrity, and practicing self-care, people can regain control. I have worked in a variety of settings and with a variety of populations. Presently, I specialize in adolescents and adults experiencing depressive, anxiety, or personality symptoms. In addition, I have experience in helping clients with anger management, career difficulties, and coping with life changes. My primary techniques include Cognitive-Behavior, Psychodynamic, and Existential therapies. I love my work, and I look forward to working with you - let's get started.
