While every person is different, we all experience the same things: happiness, sadness, trauma, stress, anxiety and other emotions. But not everyone has access to mental healthcare. The WellMinded Counseling team is committed to making a difference - and not just through outstanding therapy for patients.
WellMinded Counseling offers low-cost therapy sessions to further community access to mental healthcare. Get to know our two interns who provide low-cost therapy sessions at WellMinded Counseling. We look forward to seeing you!
Paige Leedy
Outstanding therapy begins with relationship-building. Paige believes every person has a unique set of strengths and can and will be used to aid the healing process.
Paige received her masters degree in social work from Metropolitan State University of Denver in 2018. Having worked and interned in hospital, residential and community mental health settings, Paige uses these experiences to help people overcome a variety of barriers to living a person's best life such as trauma, anxiety, depression, loss, suicidal thoughts, and conflicts within families. Using a variety of therapeutic modalities, along with specialized training in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Paige works to help reduce the effects of trauma for children and teens. A majority of her experience is with children, adolescents and families, and she loves to help this population bond and build better relationships within the family system, as well as explore feelings and personal values that can aid in feeling more energized and overall more fulfilled.
Andorra Turner
Learning from the experiences of others is critical to growing a career in counseling.
Andorra secured a degree in psychology from UNC-Asheville in 2018. After graduation, Andorra began teaching English to children in Indonesia for two years. The experience taught her many things: how to relate to others who are different from you and how to learn from their experiences.
After moving to Colorado, Andorra began working as a caregiver in a group home for adults with developmental disabilities. From her experience in Indonesia and the group home, Andorra knew she wanted to work one-on-one with others. Using a variety of logic-based therapeutic modalities, Andorra works to help others recognize their strengths, explore their feelings and create a more fulfilling life.
