Joshua Gieger, LCSW and Thor welcome you to Grand Mesa Counseling.

You deserve so much more than the absence of suffering in your life, but to feel connection, belonging, and joy deep in your bones

-adapted from Francine Shapiro, founder of EMDR

Welcome, aided by my trusty dog, Thor, I provide individual therapy for adults. I am located in Grand Junction Colorado. I offer both in person and Telehealth services.

Often people come to my practice feeling stuck in emotions of anxiety, anger, or despair. Perhaps you feel as though your emotions are out of control and dictate your decisions. Or the opposite, you may find they have difficulty connecting with or experiencing emotions and are afraid if you let them out, you’ll ‘explode’ and never be able to wrangle them back in. You may find these patterns play out in your relationships and that intimacy, connection, or feeling safe or satisfied are always out of reach. Often people share with me these feelings, thoughts, and beliefs come from painful past experiences. Sometimes we call it trauma, anxiety, insecurity, or less kind words. Thor and I invite you into a healing space where we can examine these challenges and patterns and work towards wholeness.

Mental health is truly an investment that pays dividends to our physical health, life satisfaction, and quality of relationships. Peace, safety, and wholeness are priceless. That being said, I recognize cost is a factor in accessing mental health care. Read more in the FAQ section if you are curious about how therapists determine mental health rates.
