Hi! My name is Kiana, and I’m a recent graduate of the Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling program at the University of Northern Colorado. I have a background in pediatric mental health, having worked at Children’s Hospital’s inpatient psychiatric unit, and I especially enjoy working with children and adolescents.

As a therapist at Creekside Collaborative Therapy, my goal is to create a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship that allows for safe self-expression and meaningful personal growth. My approach is trauma-informed, strengths-based, and person-centered, while incorporating evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and Brainspotting (I am a certified Brainspotting practitioner).

​

I also specialize in integrating spirituality into the therapeutic process for clients who draw strength, guidance, or meaning from their spiritual or faith-based beliefs. These conversations are welcomed and honored in our work together. Additionally, I am passionate about supporting individuals living with chronic illness, holding space for the complex emotional, physical, and identity challenges that can arise while helping clients build resilience and self-compassion.

​

In my free time, I enjoy traveling, practicing yoga, baking, reading, watching scary movies, binge-watching reality TV, and spending time with my friends, family, and two cats, Winston and Gus.

​

I’m honored to be part of my clients’ journeys as they learn, heal, and grow into the most authentic versions of themselves.
