Welcome!
I’m Cole. I live in Mancos with my wonderful wife, 2 energetic kids and our pets. My kids challenge me to be a better person, parent, and therapist with their boundless energy and curiosity, (and are also the reason for my gray hair). I’m an introvert who loves to spend my time with good tv, movies, podcasts and books. Through my own therapy, I am learning to find balance with my need for quiet and the over-stimulation of my life.
I work with people who have realized that they need to learn how to feel their feelings more deeply, so they can show up for themselves and their people. If you're navigating feelings of disconnect, inner agitation, or a quiet disappointment in yourself, especially in the wake of early trauma, I understand. My aim is to help you gently release pent-up emotions, quiet the inner noise, and bridge the distance to your authentic self, so you can truly connect with those who matter most.
I love working with EMDR, parts work, and values/beliefs that keep us stuck. I can show how these theories and approaches can help you release pent-up emotions, quiet the noise, shrink the distance of dissociation and communicate with your emotional parts.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who is trained in EMDR, attachment theory, parts work, and dissociation. I graduated from Adams State University in 2014, and after some time working on the local crisis team and outpatient community mental health, I started my private practice in 2017.
In 2024, I expanded my practice into the Mancos Valley Center for Trauma and Attachment and began adding other amazing therapists, educating and providing training and support for interns, and growing our outreach into the Mancos and Durango communities. In that time, we have started offering services to kids, families, teens, couples, veterans and adults in a group and individual formats.
Our primary focus at MVCTA is to offer a safe environment where you and your family can learn to rewire your responses to hard, scary and traumatic situations and reconnect with what and who matters the most to you.
We look forward to hearing from you!
