Licensed in Colorado and Minnesota
Welcome, I’m glad you’re here.
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 19 years of experience supporting individuals and couples through life’s challenges and relationship struggles. I’m licensed in both Minnesota and Colorado and offer therapy exclusively through Telehealth, making compassionate, expert care more accessible and flexible for your lifestyle.
I specialize in helping couples improve communication, rebuild trust, and work through conflict, including healing from affairs or navigating separation or divorce. As a Certified Discernment Counselor, I also work with couples who are on the brink of separation and unsure whether to stay or leave, providing clarity and support during a critical time.
In my work with individuals, I help clients cope with anxiety, depression, relationship stress and major life transitions. My approach is integrative and client-centered, drawing from modalities such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR (Level 1 certified), and Gottman Method principles. I’m also Level 2 certified in Relational Life Therapy (RLT), a powerful framework for transforming relational dynamics.
Therapy with me is collaborative, practical, and grounded in empathy. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m here to support your growth and healing as you move forward on your journey.
Please feel free to call or text me at 719-338-7880 or email me at libbycollins@trelliscounseling.com to schedule your intake appointment or your free 30 minute initial consultation.
