Brenda Wilking

Hello! I'm Brenda, and I'm delighted to offer both Telehealth and in-office therapy in Brighton, CO. Telehealth therapy is just as effective as in-person counseling and provides easier access to care for many. With over thirty years of experience in mental health and substance abuse counseling, I am dedicated to helping you navigate life's challenges and achieve your healthiest, most joyful life. I specialize in working with victims of crime, violence, and trauma, as well as military, para-military, and veteran populations. My advanced training in critical incident response through NOVA and ICISF, along with my certifications in EMDR and brainspotting, equip me with evidence-based tools to treat trauma effectively. As an Addictions Specialist and Mediator with level II training in Gottman couples/marital therapy, I provide comprehensive support for individuals, couples, and families. My approach is rooted in focusing on your strengths while identifying areas for growth. I offer treatment for a wide range of issues, including ADHD/ADD, anger management, adjustment issues, mood disorders (anxiety, depression, and bipolar), somatic experiencing, trauma-centered treatment, postpartum depression, personality disorders, premarital and marital issues, and faith-based counseling upon request. I work with clients aged 18 and older in individual, couple, and family sessions. I hold an undergraduate degree in sociology and a Master of Arts degree in counseling psychology from Denver Seminary. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Addiction Counselor III, I am committed to providing compassionate and effective care for co-occurring disorders. Outside of therapy, I value the importance of a balanced life and strive to bring that balance into my work with clients. My working hours are Tuesdays through Fridays from 9 am to 5 pm, and I am here to support you every step of the way. If you're ready to take the next step towards a healthier, more fulfilling life, I invite you to reach out and start this journey with me. I look forward to working with you!
