Getting to know Anita Adams

Hi, I am Anita Adams, a licensed professional counselor and licensed addictions counselor with a Master's in Counseling from Colorado Christian University. I have primarily worked with the forensic population who are currently incarcerated. I am skilled in cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused brief therapy. I am also trained in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy (EMDR) and frequently work with clients who exhibit co-occurring disorders, including post-traumatic stress disorder and substance use disorders. Fundamentally, I believe clients should be in control of their treatment and have a menu of options available. Mutual respect, trust, and rapport are paramount to my client/therapist relationships regardless of modality. I am trained in motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, and EMDR. I typically work with adult survivors of childhood trauma who may or may not struggle with substance use disorders. I believe the client/therapist relationship is sacred, and I do my best to meet people where they are in their journeys. In the "getting to know you" stage of our relationship, I am conversational and curious. Once we have progressed into therapy sessions, I use a more relaxed and calm tone to enhance coping strategies. My journey hits close to home. I believe therapists come to this work for personal reasons, often having been touched by a friend or loved one who has struggled. As a survivor of childhood trauma myself, I have great passion for this work, and more than anything, I want others to know there is always hope for a better tomorrow. I am straightforward and will always ask my clients what their main goal for seeking therapy is.
