About Crescita Counseling
Crescita Counseling was created with a simple belief: real healing happens when people feel genuinely seen, supported, and understood. We know that most clients don’t need more coping skills, quick fixes, or surface-level strategies. They need a safe relationship where their nervous system can settle, their story can be explored with compassion, and their internal world finally starts to make sense.
Our practice specializes in trauma-informed therapy, EMDR, dissociation, and deeper relational work for adults, teens, and children. Many of our clients come to us after trying therapy before — doing the worksheets, using the tools, staying “strong” — yet still feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected. We help you understand why those patterns are there in the first place, and how to gently shift them so healing becomes possible.
At Crescita Counseling, we value connection over perfection, curiosity over judgment, and authenticity over clinical coldness. Our therapists show up as real humans — grounded, compassionate, and trained in modern trauma approaches — so you don’t have to hide behind a mask or explain away your reactions. You get to show up exactly as you are.
We serve the Colorado Springs and Pikes Peak region with in-person and virtual therapy for adults, teens, and children. Whether you’re navigating childhood trauma, anxiety, dissociation, identity wounds, overwhelm, or family stress, our team is here to walk with you at your pace.
Healing doesn’t happen overnight. But with the right support, it does happen. At Crescita Counseling, we’re honored to be part of that growth, one step, one session, one connection at a time.
