Zachary Peterson, LCSW — Therapist in Colorado

Hi there, I'm Zachary!

I have a passion for helping individuals navigate life's challenges, self-image, and managing trauma. Speaking for the heart, suffering in silence is extremely painful, and getting help could relieve that pain and possibly save your life.

My focus

I specialize in anxiety, depression, PTSD, family issues, Trauma and Abuse, OCD, and self-image. I have worked with clients with different backgrounds with different struggles in life.

My approach

I implement Diversity, Equality, Inclusion, Intersectionality, Power Balance, and anti-racism as a foundational framework in therapy before applying modalities like Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT). I use CBT to accept your full intersectionality and meet you where you are from a trauma-informed, holistic perspective.

My communication style

In my therapy sessions, I want individuals to have a sense of voice in a safe and brave environment. My environment allows you to express yourself and be yourself.

My journey to mental healthcare

What attracted me to become a therapist is my passion for serving others in need. I want to help clients become the best version of themselves and achieve in every field of human endeavor.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting by collaborating with individuals and meeting you where you are. We will also identify ways that will help you achieve your goals by implementing objectives and Interventions.
