Piper, Master’s Level Intern
Piper is completing her final year at the University of Colorado, Denver while obtaining her Master’s degree in Couple and Family Counseling and Therapy. She recently completed her practicum at the university’s counseling center where she worked with both community members and CU Denver students. She graduated from the University of Oregon in 2020 with a bachelor’s degree in Family and Human Services, as well as minors in Special Education and Psychology. During her undergraduate studies, Piper pursued her passion of working with families while working with children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, as well as having a special seminar for their siblings. Piper also has experience working with children, adolescents, and families through her work at Horizons Colorado as a teacher, mental health program coordinator, and now current mentor for the high school students.
Piper aims to provide a safe and supportive environment as a space where her clients are encouraged to discover themselves, help them realize their full potential, and find a sense of healing through play. Piper uses an empathic, person-centered approach in her work and plans to become a Registered Play Therapist in the future. She hopes to expand her knowledge as a new therapist at Child, Adolescent and Adult Counseling of Denver as she works toward licensure as a Marriage and Family Therapist.
