Clarissa Cigrand

Are you seeking to find greater levels of self-worth, harmonious relationships with others, and life-affirming purpose? Let’s work together to discover personal blocks and and move towards your highest goals.

I am a mental health counselor and received my MA in Mindfulness-Based Transpersonal Counseling at Naropa University and then went on to obtain my PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision at the University of Northern Colorado. There are many specialties I use in my work, including Mindfulness-Based Counseling, Somatic/Body Approaches, Emotion Focused Therapy, Spiritual and Transpersonal Counseling, Internal Family Systems, Gestalt, and Narrative Therapy. What matters most to me is finding an approach that works for you. I have experience working with Veterans at a local Vet Center and the general adult population who have experienced trauma, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, lack of meaning and fulfillment, nonordinary states of consciousness, and difficult interpersonal …relationships. I would like to support you in working through past traumas, emotional blocks, and challenging mental and relational patterning to move into greater levels of personal freedom, self-integration, and meaningful connection.

I became a counselor to help others discover their inner wholeness and wisdom that have always existed within. As someone who is dedicated to life-long learning and growth, it is deeply meaningful to witness and support that in others. In addition to being a counselor, I am a meditation instructor, professor in a counseling department, and researcher, and these parts of my life have undeniably enriched my counseling practice. My own personal experience of counseling has provided me expansive growth and well-being and it’s a true honor to be able to work with others in this way.

If you feel the call to move into greater levels of self-sovereignty and personal transformation, please schedule with me today. I look forward to supporting you on your path.
