Colleen is knowledgeable, professional, and understands my mental health defects. She is giving me the tools to overcome my issues and can maintain sobriety in the future. I would recommend her to anyone!

I was very skeptical about therapy in general and Colleen completely changed my mind about that. I look forward to sessions with her all week and feel like the best frame of mind i am in all week is following sessions with her. Her knowledge and expertise are second to none, and she is always able to send me in a positive direction, no matter where our conversation goes

She is very understanding and communicates on your level. She also gives real life situations to help you understand how to use. Tools to help you through life.
