Anna Maria Velasquez MA, LPCC, LAC

Do you feel alone? You might struggle with what path you should take. I can support you and walk with you along your path. I have provided individual and group therapy for 6 years. I’m a graduate of Adam’s State University. I have a LPPC and a LAC. I have worked with a diverse population. I’m native to the San Luis Valley. Giving back to the community has always been my number one priority. I understand the culture of the SLV and I know the fear of seeking mental health care. Therapy gives you a chance to unpack your trauma and tell your story.

My passion for helping others comes from my life experiences. I once had the support from a therapist to change my life. I enjoy working with youth and teaching them the skills to be successful adults. DBT is a great start for learning skills to manage emotions and cope with life stressors. I have compassion and understanding for those in recovery. The San Luis Valley has an increase of addiction and minimal support for those in need. I’m trained in EMDR and love working with survivors of trauma.

My hope is to help you overcome difficulties you are experiencing. Learn new coping skills to help you work through day to day stressors. Become a success story and break the chains of addiction. Overcome the thoughts and feelings that have been created by the trauma you have been exposed to. It’s never too late to start over. The only way to heal is to feel.
