Mckenna Joosten · LCSW, LAC

Capitol HillTelehealthWaitlist

Mckenna works with individuals experiencing loss, trauma, depression, anxiety, and addiction through creative, goal-centered care.

  • Loss and grief
  • Trauma
  • Addiction

I am a licensed clinical social worker with 5 years of experience working with individuals experiencing loss, trauma/negative experiences, depression, anxiety, and addiction. In my practice I believe that everyone’s unique experiences are best met with creative solutions.

Through the use of different modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), solution focused therapy, and narrative therapy we can create a specific plan that fits your lifestyle and goals. Through therapy we are able to start at the goal of how we want to feel and/or behave and work backwards by creating specific steps to get there.

I hold a few beliefs through my practice and these include: the person you spend the most time with is yourself so how we talk to and about ourselves matters; we get the best results when we look at all aspects of health including physical, emotional, spiritual, financial, social, and all others; and we cannot stop all bad things and pain from happening in life, but we can work hard to cope with them in a way that is effective for us. I look forward to hearing your story.

Dale Gibson · LPC, LAC

Capitol HillTelehealth

Dale helps adults navigate addiction, chronic pain, and mental health challenges using EMDR and Acceptance Commitment Therapy in a safe, supportive environment.

  • Addiction
  • EMDR
  • Chronic pain
  • Mental health challenges
  • ACT

I specialize in helping adults navigate addiction and mental health challenges. I received my Masters in Addiction Counseling in Psychology from Colorado State University.

Using Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), I provide a safe, supportive environment where you can explore your experiences, gain insight, and develop practical strategies to manage stress and build healthier coping mechanisms for lasting change.

My ideal client feels overwhelmed by life’s challenges, such as stress, anxiety, or negative patterns that no longer serve them. They need a safe, non-judgmental space to explore their emotions and behaviors, seeking guidance to break free from cycles that hold them back.

Their goal is to understand themselves, heal from past wounds, and create healthier, more fulfilling habits. Ultimately, they want to feel empowered, confident, and at peace, with support to achieve a balanced, meaningful life.

Kassidy Johnson · LCSW

Capitol HillTelehealthWaitlist

Kassidy supports adults navigating mental health challenges, substance use, identity development, life transitions, and sustainable change.

  • Substance use
  • Identity development
  • Life transitions

Hi. I’m Kassidy, and I’m so happy you’re here. I support adults navigating mental health challenges, substance use, identity development, and life transitions.

I am deeply systems-minded, attuned to the many internal and external factors that shape well-being, and I believe strongly in people’s capacity to grow, heal, and adapt.

In my work, I help my clients make sense of their internal world while building external structures that support sustainable change. I draw from Motivational Interviewing (MI), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused principles, integrating these modalities in a way that aligns with each person’s strengths, goals, and experience.

I have a particular passion for supporting individuals navigating complex relationships with substances, whether exploring patterns of use, building insight, strengthening coping skills, or working toward readiness for change in a way that feels empowering. I approach these matters through a harm-reduction framework.

My style is relational and holistic, rooted in transparency and thoughtful pacing that meets you where you are while supporting where you want to go. I strive to balance compassionate support with gentle accountability, honoring your lived experience while inviting meaningful change.

Tykwa Goshay · LPCC

Capitol HillTelehealth

Tykwa supports teens ages 15+ and adults navigating trauma, anxiety, chronic stress, and life transitions with a warm, direct, collaborative, and practical approach.

Works with teens ages 15+ and adults

  • Trauma
  • Anxiety
  • Chronic stress
  • Emotional regulation
  • Chronic pain and disability
  • Neurodiversity
  • Grief
  • Relationship challenges
  • Life transitions

Life can be demanding, even when we appear capable of handling it. I work with teens and adults ages 15+ navigating trauma, anxiety, emotional regulation, chronic stress, chronic pain and disability, neurodiversity, grief, relationship challenges, and major life transitions.

My approach is warm, direct, collaborative, and practical. I help clients understand patterns, make sense of their experiences, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop tools for meaningful change. As a U.S. Navy veteran, I also understand military culture, identity transitions, and adapting when life does not unfold as expected.

I value individuality and believe therapy should have room for both seriousness and personality. Outside the therapy room, I’m an artist and playwright who enjoys cosplay, anime, classic literature and philosophy, biology, exploring different cultures, and learning about the many ways people understand and express themselves.

You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy, and therapy doesn’t have to be perfect to be productive. If you’re looking for thoughtful conversation, practical growth, creativity, and a therapist who will see you as an individual rather than a diagnosis, we may work well together.

Fenton Lawler · LSW

Capitol HillArvadaTelehealth

Fenton supports children and adults navigating complex trauma, anxiety, depression, and relational stress with a warm, collaborative approach that affirms neurodiversity and recognizes the impact of trauma.

Works with children and adults

  • Complex trauma
  • Suicidal thoughts
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Relational stress
  • Neurodiversity

Hi, I’m Fenton! I’m a trauma and neurodiversity-affirming therapist for adults and kids navigating complex trauma, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, depression, and relational stress. I’m especially passionate about working with autistic and ADHD folks and the LGBTQIA+ community.

With my background in mental health crisis work, I am comfortable sitting with you in the hard moments. I won’t ask you to mask or minimize what you’re experiencing. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in validation, honesty, and humor. My goal is to help you build a meaningful life and be present with you in moments that feel like no one else could.

My work draws primarily from DBT, IFS, somatic work, and existential therapy. We might explore your thoughts and emotions, notice what’s happening in your body, or understand the different parts of you that are trying to protect you. Before becoming a therapist, I worked as an electrical engineer. That background still shapes how I work: I’m curious about why your patterns developed and how your relational, cultural, and developmental history has shaped you.

I offer in-person therapy in Arvada and Denver, as well as telehealth across Colorado. Reach out for a 20-minute consultation to see whether we might be a good fit.

Portrait of Amber Haden

Therapist

Amber Haden · LPCC

Capitol HillTelehealth

Amber supports college students and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, OCD, and life transitions, helping them build confidence, self-compassion, and resilience.

  • Life transitions
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • OCD

I graduated with my Master’s degree in Counseling at the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC). My journey started at the University of Kansas, where I earned my Bachelor’s in Psychology and also had the incredible experience of being a student-athlete on the rowing team.

I was drawn to the field of mental health counseling because I believe that change, while often challenging, is also one of the most powerful opportunities for growth. Life transitions, whether it’s stepping into adulthood, navigating relationships, adjusting to new roles, or facing unexpected challenges, can stir up uncertainty, self-doubt, and stress. I know firsthand how overwhelming those seasons can feel, and I have seen how supportive and healing it can be to have someone walk alongside you during those times.

Therapy provides a safe space to pause, reflect, and make sense of change in a way that feels empowering rather than isolating. My passion lies in helping others navigate these transitions with greater confidence and self-compassion, so they can move through challenges and also discover new strengths along the way.

I’ve had the privilege of working with people facing challenges like anxiety, depression, OCD, and life transitions. I feel especially drawn to supporting college students and young adults as they navigate who they are, build resilience, and take meaningful steps toward growth and healing. When I am not in session, I enjoy being outside, reading books, and spending time with my friends and family.

Shannon Miller · Counseling Intern

Capitol HillArvadaTelehealth

Shannon provides individual and couples counseling for adolescents and adults, with a warm, collaborative approach and a passion for supporting neurodiverse clients and diverse and marginalized populations.

Works with teens and adults

  • Neurodiversity
  • Anxiety
  • Trauma

Hello! I believe that genuine therapeutic connection and a collaborative environment can foster healing, safety, and confidence throughout the therapy journey. My goal is to create a space where you feel truly safe, heard, and supported. I meet each client where they are and use evidence-based practices to create an individualized and intentional plan for therapy.

I currently work with adolescents and adults and provide both individual and couples counseling.

I am working toward specializing in chronic illness, medical trauma, and disability. My own experience with chronic illness showed me the importance of having medically informed mental health providers. Illness, injury, and chronic conditions can be isolating and misunderstood, and I hope to provide a welcoming and validating space for those navigating these experiences.

Neurodiversity is another area of focus for me, and I have a strong passion for supporting neurodiverse clients. I also work with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and other mental health concerns. I am passionate about working with diverse and marginalized populations and providing multicultural care.

My approach is warm, open, compassionate, and judgment-free. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, somatic practices, artistic therapies, and trauma-informed approaches. I also offer faith-based spiritual integration when desired by the client.

I believe nobody should have to carry their struggles alone. You are welcome here just as you are!
