About Barbara Parker

Barbara Parker is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado and a veteran of the United States Air Force. She spent four years working within an inpatient program that supported men transitioning from prison into community corrections, a role that shaped her understanding of recovery, addiction, and the lasting effects of family trauma.

Her counseling style is person-centered, which means clients direct the focus of sessions while she brings expertise in how change happens. She views therapeutic work as a collaborative process in which examining and challenging unhelpful thoughts leads to new behaviors and improved coping. Rather than offering direct advice, she partners with clients to build insight and construct practical plans to address the problems that are causing distress.

Drawing on her practical experience in correctional settings and her commitment to client-led change, she aims to help people move toward greater stability and well-being. She looks forward to the opportunity to work with individuals seeking support and direction.

Could Remote Counseling Be a Good Fit?

Many people wonder whether remote counseling can make a meaningful difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life transitions, online therapy can be similarly helpful to traditional in-person care.

One major benefit is flexibility - individuals can connect in whatever way suits them best, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility often makes it easier to fit therapeutic work into a busy routine.

Therapists and licensed professionals who offer remote services bring the same training and approaches they would use in person, and people may change therapists if they decide a different fit would be better. For many, online therapy provides a practical and accessible route to consistent support and progress.
