Colorado Springs, CO Therapy, Psychiatry, and Counseling

I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 15 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care. I work with children ages 10 and older, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, mood disorders, trauma, and psychotic disorders. Many of the clients I support feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or stuck and are seeking clarity, stability, and relief.

I earned my master’s degree in nursing from the University of South Alabama. My approach is collaborative, individualized, and compassionate, with a focus on understanding each client’s full experience, strengths, and goals. I provide thoughtful evaluations, clear education, and treatment planning that may include medication management and supportive care.

Seeking mental health care can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I strive to meet clients with respect, understanding, and support while helping them improve emotional well-being and daily functioning. I would be honored to support you as you take the next step toward healing and growth when you feel ready.

Hello! My name is Sherry McCoy and I am an ANCC certified Psychiatric Mental Health Clinical Nurse Specialist. I have been working in this role since 2011. Prior to 2011, I spent many years working as an RN. I treat patients with depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, grief, and many other psychiatric issues.

I ask questions both about your history, and your future treatment goals in order to help you identify the most appropriate treatment plan possible. 

I believe that your treatment plan should reflect both where you are currently, and where you would like to be in the future. I will do my best to help you achieve your goals!

Everyone should have the opportunity to be the best version of themselves possible. I would be honored to work with you to achieve your personal treatment goals. If you are ready to begin this journey, please schedule an appointment and we will get started as soon as possible.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with 7 years of experience helping teens and adults navigate anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, and personality-related challenges. My goal is to help clients recognize patterns, build emotional awareness, and develop practical tools for growth. I bring humor, honesty, and compassion into each session, meeting clients where they are while helping them move toward where they want to be.

I earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Mississippi College. My approach blends evidence-based techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and reality therapy with a relational, down-to-earth style. I believe healing happens through connection, accountability, and genuine collaboration.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel uncertain, but you don’t have to do it alone. I strive to create a supportive and empowering space where clients can feel understood, build confidence, and grow at their own pace. Healing begins with the courage to reach out.

I am a licensed psychologist (Ph.D.) with 9 years of experience providing therapy to adults and couples. I specialize in treating mood and anxiety disorders, including depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, life transitions, and stress. Many of the clients I work with are seeking a deeper understanding of their thoughts and behavior patterns so they can create meaningful, lasting change. I help them clarify their values and take practical, actionable steps toward becoming who they want to be.

I earned my doctorate in clinical psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology and have specialized experience in adult individual and couples therapy. I primarily utilize acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy, while integrating humanistic, values-based approaches.

You deserve a fulfilling life, and I am here to help you move toward it. If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or held back by self-doubt, we can work together to build insight, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and create forward momentum. When you are ready, I invite you to schedule a session and begin the process of meaningful change.

At the start of our work together, collaboration is at the core. You are the expert on your own life. My role is to support you with clinical training and therapeutic tools while honoring your lived experience and the strengths you already carry.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Treatment Victim Advocate. I am also a wheelchair user and have professional and lived experience working alongside LGBTQ+ communities. These perspectives shape my commitment to accessible and affirming care that recognizes both personal experience and the systems that influence our lives.

My approach to therapy is integrative and flexible. I draw from motivational interviewing, trauma-informed care, and skills-based practices such as DBT and CBT when helpful. Our work is shaped around what feels most supportive for you. Sessions can be structured and goal-focused, or more open and reflective, depending on your needs and priorities.

I have extensive experience working with people impacted by harmful or high-conflict relationships, including intimate partner and family dynamics. I also work with people living with disabilities and members of the LGBTQ+ community. This space supports healing from trauma, grief and loss, relationship challenges, identity shifts, and major life transitions. There is no pressure to define your experiences in any one way.

Outside of the therapy room, a bit more about me: I’m a dumpling enthusiast, an open-world fantasy game explorer, and an avid reader who adds five new books to my TBR list for every one I finish.

If this feels like a good fit, I would be honored to roll alongside you.
