MaryAnne Meyer, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor
Colorado Springs CO
I have a laid back, casual style, with an emphasis on the therapeutic relationship as a catalyst for growth. I find it vitally important we grow our therapeutic connection, especially prior to working with psychedelic medicines such as Ketamine. I model and encourage clients to access their "gentle eye of curiosity" as they begin the therapeutic process. I also fully believe in the healing power of laughter! I bring and explore humor in sessions, and examine how our use of language influences our mind, body and spirit. We will consider how inconsistencies in our beliefs and behaviors impact our functioning, and work to discover the root causes of those of those things.
I hold a Bachelor’s of Science in Human Development and Family Studies from Colorado State University, and a Master's in Counseling and School Counseling from the University of Colorado, Denver. Choosing a graduate program that aligned with who I am was important, and CU Denver provided the opportunity for me to focus on cultural responsiveness and systems structures. As a human I enjoy spending quality time with people that fill my cup, with nature, and with animals. So many of us walk through life wearing various masks, and I too felt that societal push to "act and be"- through my own therapeutic growth I've leaned into authenticity, with the sincere hope this supports my clients in doing the same.
I have a deep passion for exploring and understanding our unique human experience, which has led to interest in psychedelic assisted therapies. I completed training with the Psychedelic Research and Training Institute (PRATI) in Colorado for Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy.
