Hi! My name is Christina Allard. I have been working in the mental health field for 10 years with experience with residential, inpatient and outpatient therapy. I graduated with my Masters of arts in Counseling from Regis University.
My name is Janine Gonzalez, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Colorado, Nevada and New Mexico: with over 17 years' of experience working with a diverse population. This includes working with individuals experiencing complex issues. I started my career within acute medical settings, ER, ICU and Trauma unit, before becoming Licensed. Therefore, I also bring 28 years of experience working with people medically complex which have impacted their mental health and vis versa.
I began my career in the mental health service community, first as a case manager and then as a Licensed Professional Counselor in 2003. I began providing outpatient treatment to children, adolescents and adults who are facing anxiety, mood disorders, depression, relationship issues, trauma and grief. For me it has been a privilege to be able to do this kind of work.
I am genuine in my efforts and motivation to help others get their life back.
I am a Board Certified psychiatrist working in the Denver/Aurora region. Originally from NYC, I received my bachelor's degree from New York University before going on to receive an MD from the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill. Following this, I completed psychiatry residency training at the University of Colorado through a wide variety of training sites, including Anschutz Adult Outpatient Psychiatry, Denver Health Inpatient/Emergency Psychiatry, Denver County Jail, and the Mental Health Center of Denver.
Many of the people I work with are going through some kind of transition.
Sometimes that looks like anxiety that’s getting harder to manage, feeling stuck in the same patterns, or navigating changes in relationships, identity, or life direction. Other times it’s grief, stress, or a sense that something just isn’t working the way it used to.
You might find yourself overthinking, shutting down, or reacting in ways that don’t quite make sense, even to you. You may understand things logically, but still feel stuck emotionally.
My background is in clinical mental health counseling, and my work is grounded in approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I also have advanced training in working with relationship dynamics, which often show up even in individual therapy.
Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a journalist. That still shapes how I work today. I pay close attention, listen for patterns, and help you make sense of your story in a way that feels clear, grounded, and meaningful.
