Dr. Lars Olson, PsyD

Psychologist
CO
I am a licensed clinical psychologist and licensed school psychologist, with a PsyD in School Psychology from Minnesota State University, Mankato. My approach to therapy is adaptable and centered on each client’s unique needs. I strongly believe in the mind-body connection and enjoy discovering mindfulness techniques tailored to each individual. In my practice, I draw from applied behavior analysis and cognitive behavior therapy, frequently incorporating methods from REBT, somatic psychology, and non-Western modalities. I am passionate about DBT and ACT, and I strive to help clients develop the skills they need to live fully and in the present moment. To me, the therapist-client relationship is a partnership—we walk the road toward better mental health together. I have experience working with clients of all ages and addressing a wide range of concerns, including mood disorders, PTSD, gender transition, family dynamics, sleep issues, Autism, anger, men’s issues, career counseling, life transitions, addiction, and grief. My communication style is open and casual, designed to help clients feel comfortable and supported. I am intuitive in matching my energy to each client’s needs. We might be laughing one moment and crying the next. Sometimes you need to vent; other times, you want to problem-solve—I’m here to support you through it all. My journey to mental healthcare began while working as a substitute teacher, where I developed a passion for special education. This led me to pursue school psychology and ultimately to where I am today. I love being a therapist and feel honored to help clients heal from trauma and grow into their best selves. When it comes to goals, I collaborate closely with clients to create personalized plans that guide them toward where they want to be.
