About Aspen Counseling
At Aspen Counseling, we are a group practice made up of licensed therapists, each with their own areas of focus, specialties, and therapeutic styles. This structure allows us to match our clients with a provider who aligns with their needs, values, and goals rather than turning to a one-size-fits-all model. We take a collaborative, client-centered approach to therapy, with sessions being a safe, respectful space where you’ll be supported as you develop practical skills for real-life challenges. We accept most insurance plans and offer a sliding fee scale to make therapy more accessible for our clients.
