Many of us spend so much time taking care of everyone else that we forget what it feels like to take care of ourselves. We push through stress, trauma, loss, relationship challenges, work demands, and daily responsibilities because that's what we've always done. Over time, that constant pressure can leave us feeling exhausted, disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck.
As a Psychologist Candidate with a PhD in Clinical Psychology, I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, adjustment to changes, ADHD, autism spectrum level one concerns, relationship difficulties, and challenges related to stress, identity, and personal growth. I have a particular passion for working with first responders, veterans, healthcare professionals, and other helping professionals who often carry significant responsibilities while putting their own needs last.
Our work isn't about fixing what's "wrong" with you. It's about understanding your story, recognizing what has helped you survive, and developing tools that help you move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and resilience. My approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and tailored to your unique needs, goals, and strengths so that therapy feels meaningful, practical, and supportive of the life you want to create.
Hi and welcome! I'm Kiara, and I'm so glad you're here. One of the hardest parts of starting therapy is taking that first step and choosing to show up for yourself. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, navigating a major life transition, or simply looking for a space to better understand yourself, you've already done something meaningful by being here. You don't have to have everything figured out before you begin. This is a space where we can slow down, explore what has brought you here, and move forward together at a pace that feels right for you.
I've had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, young adults, and older adults through some of life's most challenging moments. My experience includes supporting individuals and families navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, substance use, and relationship and family conflict. I've also worked alongside older adults as they process loss, adapt to changes that come with aging, and rediscover purpose in new chapters of life. Through each experience, one thing has remained true: healing looks different for everyone.
Whatever brings you here, we don't have to figure it out alone. Together, we'll make sense of what's been weighing on you, better understand the experiences and patterns that have shaped your life, and build practical tools to help you move toward the life you want to create. I look forward to being part of your journey.
As a therapist, I have a deeply held belief in the power of listening and acceptance. It can be scary to trust in yourself, especially when you are suffering. Therapy with me is a space to let go and be yourself: no masks, no judgment, just curiosity, acceptance, and compassion. I provide this space for clients of all backgrounds. My clients would describe me as calm, warm, and adaptable.
I am passionate about supporting clients healing from trauma, dealing with ADHD, and dealing with anxiety. I use ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) to help you unhook from difficult, tangled thoughts and feelings and to live according to your values. I also use EMDR to support clients healing from trauma. Together, we will collaborate to figure out what has you feeling stuck and what actions you can take to move toward a full, meaningful life.
I’m a therapist who integrates DBT, CBT, and mindfulness-based approaches to help clients better understand themselves, manage emotions, and create meaningful change. My style is compassionate, direct, and collaborative — I believe growth happens when people feel both supported and challenged. I work to help clients build insight, strengthen coping skills, improve relationships, and move toward a life that feels more grounded and intentional.
Hi, I’m Miranda Puente, LSW, a licensed social worker based in Pueblo, Colorado. I offer both in-person and telehealth therapy services. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, and I’ve worked extensively with individuals experiencing acute and complex mental health challenges, including schizophrenia, borderline personality disorder, major depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mood-related concerns.
I use a client-centered and collaborative approach to therapy, drawing from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I also incorporate trauma-informed, strengths-based, and solution-focused techniques, always tailoring my approach to fit each person’s unique needs and life experiences.
I truly love helping people on their journey toward healing and growth. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and respected. I believe therapy works best when it feels genuine and human, and I’m committed to walking alongside you as you build coping skills, reconnect with your strengths, and move toward meaningful change at your own pace.
Most major insurance plans are accepted here, so cost isn't what's standing between you and feeling better — and we'll handle the paperwork.
Our counselors are trained to help you work through what's hard — not just talk about it. When you're ready, we're ready.
