Many of the clients I work with come to therapy carrying challenges that are rooted in relationships—past or present. While trauma can occur in many ways, it most often develops within the context of our connections with others. My ideal clients are those who sense that their life isn’t where they want it to be, even if they can’t yet identify the “how” or “why.” The beliefs they’ve developed about their experiences can lead to distorted views of themselves and their worth, making it difficult to form the deep, meaningful relationships they desire. In our work together, my first goal is to build the trust and rapport needed for a genuine therapeutic relationship. From there, I’ll help you identify what needs to change and support you in taking the steps necessary to create that change—while also holding you accountable in a compassionate, encouraging way. Many people are used to mistaking criticism for motivation, especially from themselves, but that pattern can shift. I truly love what I do, and I strive to create a therapeutic space where you can feel grounded, safe, and fully yourself. Together, we’ll address the work ahead in a way that feels both manageable and empowering. If you’re ready to begin your path toward healing, I’m ready to walk that journey with you. I look forward to meeting you and getting started.

I have a Ph.D. in Counselor Education and Supervision and am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the States of Colorado and Texas, US I am a Nationally Certified Counselor in the US, and a Licensed Sex Offender Treatment Provider in the state of Texas, US. have 6+ years of experience in the mental health counseling field. I use an approach which integrates Choice Theory (understanding that our choices lead to consequences, and everything we do/don't do is still a choice) along with evidence-based Cognitive Behavior Therapy. I strongly believe that the relationship between a client and counselor is the necessary ingredient to support change. I am competent and experienced in providing professional counseling in clinical mental health counseling; correctional counseling; sexual abuser specific counseling; adult and juvenile; pornography addictions; adjustment to major life changes; personality disorders; relationship and communication counseling. I have experience and training in online and face to face environments and believe in the “meet them where they are” strengths-based approach to counseling. With experience providing counseling services to individuals, juveniles, and groups, I have worked with clients experiencing active suicidality and suicidal ideation, as well as with clients with active hallucinations and delusions. I have experience with clients from many cultures, races, and ethnicities. These include but are not limited to members of the neurodivergent, BIPOC community, LGBTQIA+ communities, and clients with varied religious and legal backgrounds. I have extensive experience working with justice involved individuals including those with substance use, sexual abuse, guilt, and shame over past behaviors, and those with active psychopathy, and those with neurodevelopment challenges and neurodivergence. I hold sexual abuser specific licensure in Texas, ADHD/ASD level one adult diagnostic assessment and treatment training, and have completed level one Gottman Method couples counseling and enjoy working with partners looking to expand their relationships. Working with clients to help them find their answers to their questions is a joy. Helping other humans learn communication techniques that help them learn to listen and speak to be heard. Watching change unfold and people find their personal path through pain, fear, and hopelessness is an ongoing benefit of working in the counseling field.

I am a State of Colorado licensed Mental Health provider and have been for nearly 30 years. I grew up in Michigan and attended Wayne State University achieving a BA in Psychology and a MSW. Early on in my career, I enrolled in a 2-year Intensive Family Therapy program at what was then The Ann Arbor Center for the Family. It was at the exciting time when Family Systems Therapy had just revealed itself to the profession. I completed that program and many other advanced trainings throughout the years. Many of the clients I have served throughout the years have found me through my work in health care, hospice, schools, foster care and adoption, pregnancy services, serving the disabled and their caregivers including their animal caregivers. In the year 2000 I completed a 1000 hour Massage Therapy Program at The Boulder College of Massage Therapy. Soon after I became nationally certified in Massage & Bodywork Therapy and State of Colorado licensed. My dual careers have allowed me to practice from a Somatic perspective with a trauma-sensitive focus. Several years ago, as an EMDR therapist, I discovered The Flash Technique and have been finding my clients are responding well to this in trauma resolution therapy. Needless to say, I love learning and I’ve accumulated a variety of expressive art tools I sometimes use in my sessions. Clients often learn the therapeutic value of sound therapy, dance & movement therapy, clay therapy and I introduce them in my virtual sessions and in-person sessions. My greatest gift in all my life has been the ability to embrace my innate curiosity and express it to help others.

Hi, I'm Dale. Turns out life is not so easy after all. We find ourselves dealing with situations we would not have expected. At times, we feel that things are getting out of control or have already done so. Perhaps you have decided, or someone has encouraged you, that it is time to partner with someone professionally. Perhaps I can help. We were created to work in teams. But working with or coping with others is often one of the greatest challenges. We can also just be imperfect in the roles we perform in life. Early in my adult life, I set out on a mission to serve others. I worked in many capacities related to this life purpose of helping others increase their capacity for healing, coping, forgiving, and self-management. It encourages me when a person in need shows the courage and strength to reach out, open the door, or get on a video call to team up with me or another provider/helper. Trust the process, your inner spirit, and that there is good intended for your life beyond suffering, confusion, or pain you are currently experiencing. I have served 20 years as an officer, counseling military service members and their families. I have multiple deployments as a mental health provider. I also have experience working with individuals in psychiatric hospitals, the justice system, the mission field/church, and elementary and middle school education and counseling. Additionally, and perhaps most importantly, I have experienced my own ups and downs. I am a family man with a wife and 4 children, three are now adults. One small part of my life experience is living with pain from a traumatic accident. I had extended multiple surgeries, hospital stays and have progressed from bedridden to walking without assists. I have experience with suffering, disappointment, and recovery. God is the center of my life, and my service to ALL is based on respect for personal decision making, love and honesty. This process is not about me. It is about you, and me meeting you where you are. And you, at some point, moving forward assured of the person you want to be and the tools to get there. I specialize in a range of areas including anger management, family relationships, grief/bereavement, suffering and pain, military/veteran issues, multicultural/diversity issues, PTSD, intimate/romantic relationships, sex/intimacy, sleep disorders, spirituality, stress, trauma, aging and life transition issues, depression, anxiety, ADHD, medical issues/physical health, and parental and family support. My approach is holistic and tailored to meet your unique needs in a therapeutic relationship. If you're ready to take the next step, let's connect and work together towards your goals. I look forward to partnering with you on this journey.
