Kiana Portillo, MA
LPCC
Hi! My name is Kiana, and I am recent graduate from the Masters of Clinical Mental Health Counseling program at University of Northern Colorado. I have a background working in pediatric mental health at Children’s Hospital’s inpatient psychiatric unit and especially enjoy working with children/adolescents. As a therapist at Creekside Collaborative therapy, my goal is to create a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship with my clients in order to allow safe self-expression and personal growth. My approach to therapy is trauma-informed, strengths based, and person centered while utilizing elements of other evidence-based approaches such as CBT, ACT, and mindfulness.I am also certified in Brainspotting!
In my free time I enjoy traveling, yoga, baking, reading, watching scary movies, binge watching reality tv, and spending time with my friends, family, and two cats, Winston and Gus!
I am excited to be a part of my client’s process of learning, healing, and growing to become the most authentic versions of themselves!
