I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Addiction Counselor in the state of Colorado and have worked with diverse populations for over 15 years. No matter the issue whether it is substance abuse, trauma, relationships, family of origin, parenting, depression, anxiety, or fear; developing clarity around reasons we behave and react as we do is vital in self-examination. When we develop awareness around problem behaviors and responses to circumstances, we begin the evaluative process of returning to right-mindedness (seeing vs. defending against). Correcting thoughts and observing our perceptions and projections allows us to do the work necessary to modify what isn't working. My approach to working with clients is relational and client focused. This means I meet you where you are while listening and guiding sessions so you feel heard and understood. My primary objective is to support you with practical solution-focused strategies as you progress toward your treatment goals. Transformation only happens when we are willing! Asking for help demonstrates your willingness to look inside and use your strengths and resources to take responsibility for your life. Willingness allows you to consider a different way to self-examine so you create the life that you desire! One free from isolation, shame, guilt, and blame. A return to loving yourself! I look forward to hearing from you!

Hello, my name is Melissa and I am an MSW and LCSW, with more than 15 years in the mental health field. I graduated with honors in 2005 from Indiana University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology. In 2009, I obtained a master's degree in social work from Indiana-Purdue University. I received my clinical social work license from the state of Indiana in 2011 and then from the state of Colorado in 2015 after I traded in cornfields for mountains. Over the last 15 years I've been lucky enough to work with a lot of different populations in many different settings. I sort of feel like I've done it all, like if the mental health field was a menu I've ordered almost everything on it. I hope that means that I bring many years of well-rounded experience to the table. A famous author once said, “The most important things are the hardest to say… because words diminish them. Words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they are brought out.” That’s why I’m so glad you’re here. Therapy and talking to someone about your fears and anxieties and other things you’re going through can be really helpful. Those thoughts and feelings that seem really overwhelming? You may realize they are actually pretty tiny when we bring them into the light and take an honest look. Or maybe they’re not. Maybe they’re as big as you thought they might be. And, we can do something about those, too. My therapy style is a relaxed mix of CBT (thinking about thinking), DBT, solution-focused, and motivational dialogue. But, maybe the most important thing to know up front is that therapy and therapists are not a ‘one size fits all’. If we talk and you decide I’m not quite what you need, that is absolutely okay because you are the most important part of this process. You are the driver. This is your time to get to know yourself better in a safe and confidential space so that you can live a life that feels like it’s really yours. I’m really glad you’re here.

Hello! If you are exploring Better Help, it is likely that you are struggling with something significant in your life. Finding the right person to help you through these challenges is very important. If you don't have a good relationship with your counselor, you won't make the progress you are hoping to achieve. I want to provide you with some information about me in order to help you decide if my experience and style is the right match for you. I am a professional counselor based in Casper, WY and licensed in Wyoming and Colorado and a National Certified Counselor. I have been counseling individuals since 2003 when I graduated with a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology. In 2018 I graduated with a Ph.D. in General Psychology, which added to my knowledge base. Throughout the years, I have worked in a variety of settings including private practice, community mental health centers, and schools. I have worked with people of all ages experiencing a wide variety of struggles, from everyday issues to depression and anxiety. My approach is client-centered and I use theory and techniques from humanistic therapy, solution-focused therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavioral therapy. I understand that each person's experiences and needs are unique and I will tailor our work to fit your goals. We can interact in the modality that is most comfortable to you - live voice, live video, or live chat. In between live sessions, we can use the messaging system to discuss scheduling and outside assignments, share thoughts and questions that come up between sessions, and share and discuss journal entries (if you use that feature). My availability is primarily in the evenings and on the weekends. I know finding a counselor can be difficult and I would be honored to take this journey with you.

I am a therapist, licensed in Colorado, with a specialization in international disaster psychology from the University of Denver. My academic training has equipped me with the expertise to work with individuals and communities affected by traumatic events, acute and chronic civil conflict, natural disasters, and health-related pandemics. As a member of a Muindi family from Kenya and coming from an Asian (Indian) background, I understand the complexities of cultural diversity and its impact on mental health. My personal experience as part of a religious minority, compounded by having LGBTQ+ family members, has given me insight into the intersection of culture, religion, and sexual orientation. With 5 years of professional work experience, I have successfully helped clients navigate stress and anxiety, LGBTQ+ related issues, trauma and abuse, and depression. I am dedicated to creating a safe and open environment where clients can freely express their thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment.

I am licensed in Colorado with 10 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, abuse, & anger management. I also have experience working with depression. You don’t have to keep pretending you’re okay. You’ve been strong for too long—navigating life, love, and pain like you’re supposed to have it all figured out. But deep down, something’s off. You’re tired. Maybe you’re losing yourself in a relationship that’s no longer healthy. Maybe you’re struggling to set boundaries, speak your truth, or stop people-pleasing. Or maybe you’ve been through trauma that still echoes in how you love, trust, and show up. I’m Rich Yeager, LPC, and I help men, women, and older teens heal the parts of themselves that life tried to bury. I work with people who are ready to stop performing and start living, especially when it comes to relationships, self-worth, and emotional clarity. Whether you’re trying to rebuild after a toxic relationship, struggling to communicate with your partner, or still carrying pain from your past, this is the work that matters. My style is real, grounded, and straight up. I blend clinical tools with soul work—trauma recovery, boundary setting, inner child healing, and relationship repair. This isn’t surface-level stuff. We go deep, but we do it honestly, empowering, and focused on results. You weren’t meant to just survive love—you were meant to heal in it. You weren’t meant to stay silent—you were meant to be seen. If you’re ready to stop shrinking, stop repeating the same patterns, and start rebuilding a life and love that actually feel good, you’re in the right place. Let’s get to work.
