Colleen Daugherty

LMHCA

Welcoming New Clients (Ages 18+)

Hello! I’m a passionate mental health professional and gerontologist committed to helping individuals navigate emotional and psychological challenges, including trauma recovery, intergenerational trauma, codependency, relationship struggles, recovery from narcissistic and emotional abuse, caregiver stress, aging, life transitions, grief, loss, and general life challenges.

I strive to create a warm and inclusive environment where everyone feels safe and understood. My therapeutic approach blends various trauma healing techniques, including Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), somatic healing, Biosound Therapy, and mindfulness practices. Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is one of the methods I use to help you process and resolve traumatic memories through guided imagery and bilateral eye movements, promoting emotional healing in a gentle and effective way.

I have a special love for working with older adults, caregivers, and those in the sandwich generation who are balancing the needs of both aging parents and children. With professional experience in care management for the aging and disabled populations, and personal experience as a caregiver for adults with dementia, I deeply understand the unique challenges that come with supporting older adults. My background in gerontology, care management, and Clinical Mental Health Counseling, along with certifications in trauma counseling, enables me to provide compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to each individual’s unique needs.

I look forward to working with you on your journey toward healing and personal growth!
