Colleen Clarke

She/Her/Hers

Not Accepting New Clients

Having raised three young adults, Colleen is drawn to conversations about life transitions, career exploration, and mental health issues affecting college-age students, young professionals, and adults. She seeks to listen to and support adults in their process of healing and self-exploration. She works with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, identity exploration, life transitions, grief, high-level neurodivergencies, and major life stressors.

Colleen approaches therapy from an integrative, client-centered approach to match each individual’s unique needs. Her approach includes but is not limited to Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (working with how trauma is stored in the body), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and strengths-based. As a cisgender, white woman who has lived in many different communities around the US, Colleen continues to strive to learn about others’ cultures, identities, and experiences with humility and curiosity. She believes that all humans desire connection, acceptance, and love, and that we are offered an opportunity to grow and learn from each other if we remain open, vulnerable, respectful, and humble.

Colleen graduated from Saint Mary’s University with a Master’s in Counseling and Psychological Services and is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC). Colleen also earned a Master’s in Speech Language Pathology and brings a deep understanding of acute and degenerative diseases from this prior work.

In her free time, Colleen enjoys camping, hiking, rowing, yoga, cooking and exploring new restaurants, and her lab pup, Duke.
