Support for the worry, tension, and overthinking that make it hard to feel present in your own life.

Overview

When worry takes up too much room

Anxiety can feel like a mind that will not slow down, a body that stays on alert, or the urge to avoid situations that feel overwhelming. Even when you are keeping up on the outside, the effort can leave you worn out.

At Gravity Counseling, anxiety therapy starts with understanding your experience and what you want to change. Your therapist works with you to notice patterns, explore the pressures around you, and practice ways to respond with more choice.

A conversation is a place to start.

You can ask questions and talk through what you are looking for before deciding on next steps.

  • Anxiety
  • Life transitions

I am a counselor candidate whose clinical background is rooted in serving some of the community’s most vulnerable populations.

This work has directly shaped my commitment to providing a safe, welcoming space free of judgment.

In my practice, I focus on helping individuals manage anxiety, navigate life transitions, and safely explore aspects of identity.

Hello, I’m Jessica. People from all walks of life experience challenges and stressors that can be overwhelming and impact their well-being. Counseling can provide you with a safe place to talk about these stressors, gain the tools to overcome challenges, and achieve balance and fulfillment in life.

I believe in the power of therapy to help you gain insight about your thoughts, shift your outlook, and increase awareness of your feelings, needs, and desires, to help you live your best life.

Using a collaborative strength-based approach, I help guide and empower you to quiet worrisome thoughts, explore painful patterns in your life, and provide practice in coping, self-care, and personal growth. In a non-judgmental, compassionate, and supportive way, I can help you find relief and change patterns of behavior in your personal life and relationships.

I began my journey in the field by working in various residential treatment programs for adults and adolescents while earning my Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology and integrative therapeutic practices at Metropolitan State University of Denver. In 2017, I graduated from the University of Denver with a Master of Arts degree in clinical mental health counseling with a specialization in substance abuse.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC). Over the past 7 years, I have been working with adults in community mental health, providing individual therapy and crisis evaluations. I also have experience working with children and adolescents, offering in-home individual and family therapy for over 2 years.

I specialize in working with adults battling depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use concerns, and clients navigating life transitions. My approach is eclectic, tailored to suit the unique needs of each client.

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.

Questions about Anxiety Therapy.

Do I need an anxiety diagnosis to start?

No. You can reach out because worry, stress, or feeling on edge is affecting your life. Early conversations help clarify what support fits your needs.

What approaches do your therapists use?

Gravity clinicians draw from approaches such as CBT, ACT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care. Your clinician can explain their approach and work with you to choose a focus that fits your goals.

Will I have to face everything that scares me right away?

You and your therapist discuss goals, readiness, and pacing together. You can ask questions, name concerns, and talk about what feels manageable.

Can I meet with a therapist online?

Secure telehealth is available across Colorado when clinically appropriate. A consultation can help confirm clinician availability, privacy needs, and whether the format fits your goals.
