How Healing Hands Holistic Therapy, LLC started
The journey started during graduate school while taking a career counseling course in 2018. For a career interview project, I met with one of the adjunct professors in the program who had their own private practice. I was unaware of the possibility of having my own practice and desired to start one at some point in the future. It has always been a goal and ambition to interweave video games, tabletop games, and my unique style to therapy into the work that I do. After being part of organizations that limited my ability to provide services in the way that I want, I made the decision to push further into the dream of having my own business. In the fall of 2024, I filed the paperwork for my business and then took a business class through the Colorado SBDC, and I started offering services in 2025. Starting July 2026, I’ve been credentialed with commerical insurance and have been investing further in my capacity to provide therapy services to the community.
