Therapists in Pueblo, CO
Many of us can benefit from mental health services at some point in our lives. From working parents to graduate students, we all experience stress and change that can get overwhelming at times. When it comes to finding a therapist, Pueblo, CO may offer a greater variety of choice than surrounding rural areas, but finding counseling services isn’t always easy even in more populated areas.
One reason for this is that in the field of psychotherapy there are a number of evidence-based approaches and techniques. Which will be most effective can depend on the treatment plan, the challenge itself, and the preferences of the individual. While a nearby clinic may offer counseling services, they may specialize in play therapy which is not necessarily effective for eating disorders or substance misuse. Like traditional medicine, psychology has many specializations, and it can be essential to find a therapist with experience in treating your population.
That’s where online therapy can help. With online therapy through a platform like BetterHelp you get access to over 30,000 mental health professionals who have expertise in a variety of specialties, and experience working with diverse populations. Simply fill out an online questionnaire, and BetterHelp will match you with a therapist that meets your individual needs. And because therapeutic alliance can be so key to success, if you need to change therapists, you can do so at no additional cost.
Online therapy with BetterHelp can also be a solution for those who don’t have the time or bandwidth to attend in-person sessions. Online sessions fit easily into any busy schedule. And for those who are concerned about finding a safe and non-judgmental space, video chat, and text messaging options allow you to talk to your therapist from the comfort of your own home or office. Although not covered by insurance, for many people, therapy costs can be more affordable through BetterHelp, due to lack of office overhead cost.
If you are part of the Pueblo community and have been thinking about therapy for any reason--to process past experiences, heal the breach with a family member, or gain the tools necessary to manage the stress of daily life, reach out to BetterHelp for a simple way to get started on your wellness journey.

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.

I am licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Colorado (since 2011), and received my M.A. in Counseling from Colorado Christian University. Although I have experience providing therapy around a variety of issues, my areas of focus include grief and loss, depression, & transitions/life changes. I'm also passionate about working with clients around compassion fatigue, an issue many of us in service and caretaking-related fields experience at some point. It is my strong belief that we, as humans, were designed to connect, to be seen and known fully, but isolation and brokenness are often the reality. Augustine wrote about "the unobserved life," referring to the cruciality of self-reflection. I am here to facilitate a more observed life for the purpose of deeper self-awareness, insight into our own strengths and weaknesses, a greater sense of purpose and direction, as well as cultivating empathy and understanding for others. Pain and sorrow are often the means by which we grow. Rather than offering a band aid or "feel better fast" approach, which, I believe, is antithetical to the deep soul work we actually need, I will walk alongside you in your pain, whatever that pain may look like. Research shows that the modality of a therapist matters much less in terms of treatment outcomes than the quality of relationship between therapist and client. As such, I implement an eclectic approach, often using aspects of several different models including CBT, DBT, and existential therapy, but believe the most poignant and lasting change occurs as a result of the genuine human connection found in the therapeutic relationship. I look forward to working with you!
