I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 6 years of experience supporting individuals through challenges related to anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, and life transitions. I work with adolescents and adults who are seeking clarity, emotional balance, healthier patterns, or a supportive space to process what they are carrying. My goal is to help you feel understood, grounded, and empowered as you move toward healing.

I hold a master’s degree in psychiatry and mental health and a master’s degree in nursing from Rocky Mountain University. I use evidence-based approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based strategies, and motivational interviewing, to help you understand patterns, build coping skills, and create meaningful, sustainable change.

You deserve support that honors your story and meets you where you are. My approach is collaborative and compassionate, helping you move forward with clarity and confidence. If you are ready to take the next step toward healing and renewed peace, I would be honored to walk with you.

I’m an RN and LCSW with experience in community mental health, medical social work, and group therapy. I work with adults 18+ and seniors 65+ who are navigating life transitions, stress, anxiety, or simply need a supportive place to talk things through. I also provide therapy to those in the medical field, experiencing burnout and compassion fatigue. I am especially interested in clients facing eating disorders, grief and loss as well as looking at career change.

Clients describe me as approachable, caring, and practical. My goal is to create a safe space where you feel comfortable sharing your story without fear of judgment. I use CBT, cognitive behavioral therapy, SFBT, solution focused brief therapy as well as a strengths based approach in therapy. I believe healing starts with being heard. In our sessions, you’ll have space to tell your story, share what brought you to therapy, and explore new perspectives.

My style is collaborative and supportive — I’ll help you reframe unhelpful thoughts, practice practical coping skills like journaling and mindfulness, and problem-solve to create realistic solutions for your future. I became a therapist after working as an RN for many years. I realized that I was interested in exploring a client's back story regarding stress. I am a dog lover, and also enjoy going to the gym, and watching documentaries.

I am Mallory, a licensed social worker and therapist with a Master of Social Work (M.S.W.) and a Doctor of Social Work (D.S.W.). My path into this work was shaped by a genuine belief that every person deserves compassionate, individualized care—and that the therapeutic relationship itself is one of the most powerful vehicles for change. I've worked across clinical, educational, and community-based settings, which has deepened my understanding of the social, structural, and personal forces that shape mental health. 

My practice is grounded in evidence-based frameworks, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and motivational interviewing. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all therapy—I tailor my work to what each client actually needs, drawing on both advanced clinical training and years of close listening. 

Whether you're in the depths of a depressive episode, exhausted by anxiety, learning to live with a bipolar diagnosis, or simply carrying more than you should have to carry alone—you deserve support that takes you seriously. When you're ready, I hope you'll reach out and schedule an appointment. That first step is often the hardest, and I'll meet you there.

As a therapist, I focus on building relationships grounded in trust, empathy, and collaboration. I strive to create a safe environment where clients can strengthen coping skills and heal from past trauma. I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 30 years of experience working with children, youth, and young adults facing anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, autism, and other developmental disabilities. My experience includes roles as a behavioral specialist, therapist, and school social worker. 

I use a person-centered approach while incorporating cognitive-behavioral techniques. As a licensed trauma specialist, I understand our past experiences can impact our present—and I believe the brain continues to grow and adapt, making healing possible. Although the work can be challenging, we will build the tools and resilience needed for healing together. 

I believe growth, self-compassion, and healing matter more than perfection. I look forward to working with you as you take meaningful steps toward healing and growth. Reaching out for support can be difficult, but you've already taken the first step. I invite you to schedule a time for us to connect and determine whether I am the right fit for your journey.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with experience helping individuals on their path to healing. My career began living in a tent and working as a lay therapist at an outdoor psychiatric hospital for adolescents. This experience, combined with growing up in a rural area during a time of family illness and the early loss of both my mother and father, deeply informs the perspective I bring to my work today. I typically work with individuals and families navigating trauma and addiction, women processing the grief of being Motherless Daughters, and those in the aging process seeking to integrate a lifetime of experience.

My style is supportive, relational, and grounded, born from years of witnessing the resilience of the human spirit. Whether you need structured CBT skills, Internal Family Systems (IFS) work, or deep grief processing, I provide a warm, intuitive space to co-create your wellness plan. I am passionate about helping you reclaim a sense of hope and possibility. 

I approach my practice with curiosity and a genuine love for people (and dogs). Healing is a profound and rewarding labor, and it would be my privilege to support you through it. You deserve a space where you can finally be heard without judgment. If you are ready to bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be, I welcome you to reach out.

I work with individuals, couples, and families, supporting clients as they navigate life transitions, emotional challenges, and relational concerns. I am deeply committed to helping people strengthen self-efficacy, build insight, and move toward meaningful personal growth through a collaborative and supportive therapeutic relationship.

I earned my master’s degree in family and consumer sciences from New Mexico State University. My approach is strength-based, empathetic, and grounded in unconditional positive regard. I value building strong therapeutic rapport and frequently incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients reframe unhelpful thought patterns and overcome obstacles.

I believe you are more than your struggles or past experiences. Together, we will identify your strengths, set meaningful goals, and create practical tools to support progress between sessions. I strive to offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel supported, encouraged, and empowered as you move forward in your healing journe

Christine Fatherree, LCSW, brings over 25 years of experience in the mental health field, working in a variety of roles to support adult clients seeking growth, healing, and clarity. She is deeply committed to helping individuals explore their concerns and make meaningful changes in their lives.

Christine works with adults experiencing depression, grief, life transitions, and trauma (though not military-related trauma). She understands that beginning therapy often starts with important questions—and that exploring those questions can lead to real transformation. Her therapeutic approach is tailored to each client’s needs, drawing from a range of evidence-based practices including traditional Talk Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

(EMDR). This flexible approach allows Christine to offer personalized support that meets you where you are.

Christine is genuinely curious about your story and provides a safe, non-judgmental space to explore both your inner world and life circumstances. While therapy can be challenging, it can also bring moments of insight, relief, and even humor.
