Mental Health and Substance Use Therapist in Colorado

Therapy for the Sober Curious Ready to Heal Relationship Trauma and Step into Their Identity

Supporting your journey to authenticity and inner strength.

Many of my clients come to me feeling stuck, anxious, or disconnected from themselves and others, often as a result of unresolved family trauma or attachment wounds. These traumas can lead us to seek escape, sometimes with alcohol, substances, or other unhealthy behaviors. Together, we’ll work on healing these deeper patterns, fostering healthier relationships, and finding inner peace.

Hello, again. I’m Kristine Majestic, a licensed addiction counselor (LAC) and licensed professional counselor candidate (LPCC). My own struggles, experiences, and profound healing have led me to pursue this life as a therapist to hold space for people navigating the deep unknown.

For many years, I struggled with my own relationship with alcohol, uncertain about what it meant for my life and my future. I was constantly asking myself “what if I don’t like myself?”, “what if people think I’m boring?”, and “what will my life even look like if I’m not drinking?” It was a deeply personal process, and through that work, I found not only sobriety but also a greater purpose—to hold space for others as they navigate their own journey through healing.

I’ve been sober from alcohol since September 1, 2017, so I’ve walked a similar path, and I understand the fear, the resistance, and the hope that come with making big changes. In our work together, I offer my lived experience alongside my professional training, creating a space where you can explore your past, break unhealthy patterns, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

I earned my master’s degree in addiction counseling from Colorado State University, and since then, I’ve worked with individuals struggling with addiction, substance use, and severe trauma. While I do work with all genders, I have a passion in working with women who are facing gender-specific issues and traumas. In our work together, we’ll chart a path that honors your unique journey and helps you uncover the strength you’ve always had within you.

  • In our sessions, I use an eclectic approach, blending person-centered therapy, strength-based therapy, motivational interviewing, and Jungian principles to help you explore the deeper layers of your experiences. For those seeking even deeper insight, I offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, which can provide profound breakthroughs, particularly for individuals working through trauma or substance use challenges.

    At the core of my work is a relational focus. I believe that healing begins with a strong therapeutic relationship, where you feel seen, heard, and valued. By approaching each client with unconditional positive regard, I create a space that honors your unique journey, allowing your inner wisdom to guide the healing process. Together, we’ll explore new ways of being, empowering you to embrace meaningful change.

  • My therapeutic practice draws from a diverse set of modalities, including person-centered therapy, strength-based approaches, and motivational interviewing. I also incorporate ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and pull from Jungian perspectives, allowing me to tailor our work to your specific needs. My trauma-informed lens ensures that each session is conducted with care and sensitivity to your experiences.

  • I hold a Master’s degree in Addiction Counseling from Colorado State University and am a Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) and Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC) in the state of Colorado.

    I have completed specialized training in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy by attending the Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy Training Program through Elemental Psychedelics. Elemental is a women-led training center for education, experience, and ethics in psychedelic practice.

    Additionally, I’m a member of the American Group Psychotherapy Association (AGPA), which reflects my commitment to professional growth, ethical standards, and expertise in creating meaningful and effective group therapy experiences.

    My experience in both private practice and community mental health gives me a broad understanding of the unique challenges people face, and I use this knowledge to offer compassionate, tailored care.

  • I believe in the power of empathy and authenticity in healing. My practice is rooted in the belief that every person has the ability to heal, and I see my role as a guide in helping you rediscover your innate strengths.

    I am particularly passionate about supporting those exploring sobriety and healing from trauma, offering a space where you can be your truest self and work through challenges at your own pace.

My own journey of healing is rooted in group work, where shared experiences create powerful opportunities for growth.

I absolutely love working one-on-one with clients, helping them explore their unique challenges and guiding them toward healing in a deeply personal way. But because of my own journey of healing through group work, I also offer support groups, group counseling, and group ketamine journeys. These group settings foster connection, provide collective insight, and allow clients to feel supported by a community while engaging in their personal healing. Whether in individual or group work, my goal is to create a space where each person feels seen, heard, and empowered.
