More about Bruce
- 37 years' experience
- Male
- Psychologist
I am licensed in Colorado with 37 years as a Mental Health professional. Most of my doctoral level work has been with Soldiers and other military personnel. In addition to the doctoral level education and professional Internship all psychologists complete I have also done a Pediatric Fellowship which afforded me the opportunity to work extensively with military family members. I have also worked with civilians in various private practice venues. I am experienced using multiple strategies helping clients with stress and anxiety, PTSD, combat related and other trauma, depression and ADHD. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I feel I am at my professional best when the client and I can establish clear goals and objectives. Personal growth is not restricted to time spent with a therapist and I try to work with clients to identify meaningful experiments or activities to facilitate their behavior change outside the "office." Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I applaud you for doing so and I am here to support you in that process.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
