Counseling, EMDR Therapy & Hypnosis in Parker, CO

Support for individuals, couples, & families navigating anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, family conflict, trauma, and life transitions.

Hi, I’m Carlene

I provide counseling in Parker, Colorado, and secure telehealth sessions across Colorado for individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, family conflict, and major life transitions. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, genuinely understood, and able to show up exactly as you are.

Before becoming a counselor, I spent more than 20 years in corporate leadership, managing teams across multiple countries and helping people navigate challenges, growth, and change. While I enjoyed that work, I found myself drawn to the deeper human side of every conversation. I realized that what I loved most was connecting with people, listening to their stories, and helping them discover strengths they often didn't realize they had.

Who I Help

I work with individuals, couples, adolescents, and families facing emotional, relational, and life challenges that may feel difficult to navigate alone.

What to Expect When We Work Together

Starting counseling, Trauma therapy & EMDR, or mediation can feel like a big step. The process begins with a conversation, not pressure. The goal is to understand what brought you here, what kind of support you need, and whether working together feels like the right fit.

From there, sessions are shaped around your goals, comfort level, and the type of care that makes sense for your situation. Whether the work focuses on healing, communication, family transitions, or personal growth, the process is designed to feel supportive, collaborative, and grounded in practical next steps.
