Restoring Wholeness and Flourishing—One Client at a Time
Becoming a skilled mental health clinician is about more than just accumulating knowledge. It requires developing intuition and cultivating self-awareness, especially when working with trauma.
I help clinicians gain confidence and competence in addressing trauma and spirituality in their practice. My approach is practical, supportive, and tailored to your needs—whether you’re an intern, a newly licensed clinician, or a seasoned professional. We’ll explore tools and strategies you can engage as you help clients move toward healing.
Case Consultation
Do you need guidance with complex trauma cases or integrating spiritual dynamics into therapy? I provide case consultation for clinicians looking to enhance their skills and find clarity in challenging situations. Together, we’ll unpack client concerns, explore trauma-informed strategies, and address elements of faith in a way that aligns with your clinical approach. My goal is to support you in delivering compassionate care while helping you grow as a confident, capable therapist.
Case consultation may be right for you if…
You enjoy exploring to find the best clinical approach.
You want to build a community of support to prevent burnout.
You desire improved clinical outcomes for your clients.

Trainings Consistently Receive Positive Feedback

Internships
Are you a graduate student seeking a meaningful and supportive therapy internship? I provide a collaborative space where you’ll gain hands-on experience with trauma (especially spiritual trauma and domestic abuse) and holistic healing. I value motivated interns who are eager to learn, grow, and refine their skills in a safe, encouraging environment. Together, we’ll build your confidence, enhance your understanding of trauma-informed care, and equip you to make a lasting impact in the lives of your future clients.
An internship may be right for you if…
You are eager to learn how best to help your clients, not to do busywork.
You want to advance in your career—even before graduating.
You desire to grow in self-awareness, knowledge, and balance.

Interns will be marketed on our website in advance of their start date so as to build up a waitlist of clients. Interns are also expected to grow their client base by networking.

Internships are unpaid. However, there is no cost for marketing, office space/platform, supervision, or EMR access and training.
The client rate for interns is typically $50-60 per session.

After we review your materials, we may invite you to participate in an extensive interview process. If accepted, interns will participate in a thorough onboarding process, including training in our EMR (Simple Practice), practice policies, and best practices for working with clients.
A privilege to Sit Under Colleen’s Teaching
“Colleen is an extremely skilled therapist and supervisor who also portrays a lot of warmth and empathy. It was a privilege to sit under her teaching, especially in regard to her specializations in trauma-informed EMDR and somatic experiencing. Colleen also provided a lot of guidance in how to run a practice that both serves the client and allows the therapist longevity in the field by practicing self-care and having automated systems in the practice. I couldn’t recommend Colleen more!”

Supervision for Licensed Professional Counselor Associates (LPCAs) in Kentucky is about growing into the therapist you’re meant to be—not just checking boxes.

You need support applying what you learned in school to specific and dynamic work with your clients.
You are interested in developing not just your clinical skills, but your business and work/life balance skills, as well.
You desire improved clinical outcomes for your clients.
