I’m a licensed professional counselor with over 30 years of experience. I began counseling as a pastor working with individuals, couples and families. I left the pastorate and now I am a fulltime psychotherapist and loving it. I practice psychotherapy from an integrative/holistic paradigm. My general approach is “person-centered”. This means that I don’t come with an agenda. You are the agenda. My goal is to know you, to hear the narrative of your life and come alongside you and resource you to help you respond in a healthy way to whatever you are facing in life. I am a certified Brain Health Coach which means I am trained to look at mental health from the perspective of the latest neuroscience research as it relates to psychotherapy. I am trained in EMDR and practice from a trauma-informed paradigm. I will draw from the full spectrum of therapeutic approaches and interventions to help you better understand you and your world.

Hello! I am a therapist with a passion for helping people to make positive changes in their lives. Throughout my 17 year career I have worked with many different populations in a myriad of ways and have found that most people want to have a better life and just need that catalyst to make it possible. My style lends itself to be more on the coaching side and I often times have clients work on different small tasks outside of the therapy session. I would consider my counseling style to be warm, interactive, and goal oriented. Humor is a tool I use regularly to bring reality to difficult situations and to show that while life can be tumultuous, there should always be room to find laughter. I have extensive experience in mood disorders, teen issues, addictions, life changes, divorce, and family issues. I lend more towards messaging and live messaging therapy as I feel it gives the client more time to really think about what they want to say and to be able to better absorb the responses. You have taken the first and often times hardest step towards improving your future! I hope to hear from you soon and I look forward to working towards a more fulfilled life.

I believe in treating whole people: thoughts, beliefs, emotions, experiences, patterns, and behaviors, because I have seen the connection between all of these variables, and the power in identifying these connections. I am looking forward to meeting you, and I celebrate your decision to seek help. It is a difficult thing to do, and you are already heroic and daring in your search. Self-reflection and self-exploration are the beginning of exquisite growth. “And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.” - Anais Nin

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.

Underneath the pain from past challenges and fear of the future lies our most authentic selves. Whether that grief stems from childhood wounds or wounds created along the way. I work with individuals who are fatigued by the weight of their traumatic burdens and recognize that they are-and can be more-than what the trauma narrative describes.

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.

Find a therapist near you in Grand Lake, Colorado

Finding a therapist near you in Grand Lake, Colorado starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals. Colorado is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities, which can make it challenging to find care. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist through tailored matching, so you can begin care from home or wherever works for you. 

The network includes over 30,000 licensed therapists globally, and over 4 million people have used BetterHelp to find support through online therapy. During matching, 93% of user preferences are met, which helps you connect with a therapist suited to what you are looking for. Whether you are searching for help with anxiety, trauma, affordable or insurance covered therapy, weekend or flexible scheduling, or virtual sessions, you can find a therapist and get started when you are ready.

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?

Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In Colorado, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.

Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Colorado, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.

What concerns can therapists help with?

Therapists can help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and stress, depression, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem and identity, people-pleasing and fear of rejection, insomnia and racing thoughts, workplace stress and burnout, substance use, parenting and co-parenting stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family challenges. Therapists on BetterHelp may draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), depending on your needs and goals. You can explore support for specific concerns on pages such as generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and eating disorders.

Please note that therapists on BetterHelp do not provide psychiatric medication management or formal diagnoses.

Online therapy vs. in-person therapy in Colorado

In-person therapy takes place at an office and may involve travel and set appointment windows.

Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.
