To find the right therapist, you may want to see if they offer an introductory, 15-minute consultation call. At High Rockies Counseling, we offer these calls at no cost to you to see if we are a good fit. You should feel that you can talk freely and openly with your therapist and that they can provide a safe space for you to discuss what you’re needing help with.

Therapy from a licensed therapist for anxiety, depression, and PTSD includes evidenced based treatments that are studied and proven to work for these types of issues. Depending on the individual, certain types of therapy may work better than others. At our practice, we use a blend of CBT, DBT, EMDR, and several other evidenced based techniques to treat depression, anxiety, and PTSD.

If you have an insurance plan that covers mental health, your cost can vary from $0-$125. You can call your insurance to see if it covers mental health sessions and if you have a deductible for mental health counseling. If you do not have insurance, the self-pay fee is $125. Talk to us if you cannot afford the full fee, as there may be other programs available to you or sliding scale spots to help with the cost of therapy.
