Colleen Casson, LPC — Therapist in Arizona

Hi there, I'm Colleen!

I see therapy as a collaborative partnership, and I strive to provide a safe and supportive space in which to explore barriers and rediscover your authentic self.

My focus

I work with adults of all ages, genders, and gender identities. LGBTQ+. I have specialized training in working with the effects of childhood trauma and dysfunction. I also work well with anxiety and panic, life transitions, personal growth, interpersonal challenges, and general mental health.

My approach

I offer therapy using a variety of treatment modalities. My approach towards therapy is trauma-informed, consent-based, and client-centered.

My communication style

I would describe my communication style as providing a safe, compassionate, and collaborative space for my clients during therapy.

My journey to mental healthcare

My own history of growing up in a dysfunctional family and various traumatic experiences are what attracted me to the field of therapy. Knowing how the work of my own therapy continues to change me, and witnessing the post-traumatic growth in others, are what drive me to do this work.

My goals for you

I help clients explore what they most want for themselves and what may be getting in the way.
