What are some recommended therapists in Colorado Springs for mental health support?
Hi Caleb, welcome to the forum! Asking for recommendations can be a great first step when looking for support. While I can’t suggest specific therapists, I can share that many find it helpful to look for professionals who specialize in what they’re experiencing, whether it’s anxiety, depression, trauma, or other issues. It’s also important to feel comfortable and understood, so considering a therapist’s approach and their ability to create a safe space matters a lot.
You might start by checking directories like Psychology Today, which allow you to filter by location and specialties. Remember, finding the right fit can sometimes take a little time, and that’s okay. It’s worth exploring options until you find someone who resonates with you. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, reaching out to local mental health clinics or community health centers can also be a helpful step.

Hey Caleb, sounds like you’re in the early stages of looking for support, which can feel a bit overwhelming—especially when you want to find someone who’s a good fit.
While I can’t recommend specific therapists, I’ve read that finding a good match often comes down to personal fit as much as credentials. Some people connect best with those who share their background or understand certain struggles, while others focus on things like approach (CBT, trauma-informed, etc.). It’s totally normal if it takes a few tries to find the right one.
Have you thought about what feels most important to you in a therapist—like their style, background, or specialties? Sometimes making a list of the qualities you’re looking for can help narrow things down. If you’re comfortable sharing, what’s motivating you to reach out for support right now?
