Shaye Meissen, LPC, PMH-C

Mental Health Therapist, Owner

I believe that healthy relationships are the foundation of a beautiful life, and I am committed to helping you become the person, partner, and parent you want to be. I understand that it can be difficult to reach out for help, so I am always conscious of ensuring that therapy feels encouraging, inviting, and safe.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado and Missouri, and have been working with individuals and families for over ten years to navigate life’s struggles and live more fully. I won’t promise that all of your problems or difficult experiences will go away, but I will commit to helping you navigate through them in a way that feels genuine and allows you to take action towards the life and relationships you want.

I was born and raised near Joplin, MO and grew up playing sports and spending time with family and friends. I moved to Springfield, MO and attended college at Missouri State University, receiving my Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology in 2010. In 2015 my husband and I decided to move to Woodland Park, CO. We enjoy the mountains, but also travel back to Missouri often.

When I'm not working I enjoy hiking, camping, traveling, reading, attempting to cook, and hanging out with my family.

Paige Lloyd, LPC, PMH-C

Mental Health Therapist

A lucky few “get it right” the first time. For most of us, life is a process of learning as we evolve, as we edge closer to becoming the person we want to be. I am here to support you in this evolution. I enjoy working with teenagers, parents, and those working through anxiety and stress while trying to balance the demands of everyday life.

I was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, and attended University of California, Davis. After college I spent years working in human resources. My husband and I had a daughter during this time. I understand the rewards and challenges of navigating the complex balancing of marriage, motherhood, friendships and career. When I returned to school for a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from The Wright Institute in Berkeley, California, it was to allow me to do the work that I’ve always felt was important for me to do.

We recently moved to Aurora, Colorado with three dogs and one cat in tow. I am enjoying the outdoor hiking and camping lifestyle that the Centennial State provides, while making time to travel back to California to visit friends and family. Time with my family and friends (that are like family) is precious to me. I also enjoy cycling, travel, laughing and exploring what life has to offer.

Melanie McQuiston, LPC

Mental Health Therapist

I strive to provide a comfortable and safe environment for clients, even when working on complicated and hard topics. I believe all clients should feel safe to express themselves without feeling judged or discriminated. I believe that the counselor-client relationship is the utmost important and should include honesty, empathy, and respect. I understand that counseling can be an emotional journey towards achieving one’s goals.

I am a National Certified Counselor (NCC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC) in Colorado. I enjoy working with adults with depression, anxiety, relationships issues, self-esteem, women’s issues, LGBTQIA issues, multicultural issues, trauma, and life transitions. I use an integrative approach to counseling with the knowledge that treatment is different for each person. My primary therapeutic approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), person-centered therapy, and solution-focused therapy.

I was born and raised around the suburbs of Detroit, MI. I have a Bachelors degree in Psychology from Central Michigan University and a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Oakland University. I moved to Fort Collins, CO this past October.

When I am not working I enjoy reading, needlework, nature walks, and spending time with my cats.
