Colleen Clarke
(She/Her/Hers)
Pre-Licensed Professional
Colleen has worked with many clients who experience anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, grief and loss, identity exploration, and relationship issues.
Having raised three young adults, Colleen is drawn to conversations about life transitions, career exploration, and mental health issues affecting college-age students and adults of all ages. She seeks to listen to and support adults in their process of healing and self-exploration. Colleen has worked with many clients who experience anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, grief and loss, identity exploration, and relationship issues. She strongly believes in community and reaching out to others for support as we move along our personal journeys. Colleen enjoys exploring how past experiences affect the way we move through the world and pursuing what can be done in the present to help clients feel better. As a cis-gendered, white woman who has lived in many different communities around the US, Colleen continues to strive to learn about others’ cultures and experience 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.
