I have provided psychotherapy to all ages for 24 years. I primarily do individual therapy with adults and teens. I provide in-person (preferred) and Telehealth therapy. I treat an array of clinical issues: depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders (panic disorder, GAD, PTSD, etc.), eating disorders, schizoaffective disorder, psychosis, personality disorders (borderline, narcissistic, antisocial, etc.), anger, life stress, and substance abuse/dependence. I assist clients dealing with various life stressors including job loss, grief, trauma, adjustment issues etc. I encourage and advocate for coping versus avoidance behavior.

Life can be complicated for different reasons. Sometimes more support can help. At any age, life can be overwhelming, negative behaviors can persist, relationships trapped in hurtful patterns, or inner worlds caught in negative thinking which stretch our coping, and cause stress. In all this WE WANT TO FEEL BETTER! Counseling offers a private, confidential space to get help. It is an honor to listen and join in your life story. I work with adults/couples/families/teens and children, listening to your goals to bring balance, health, wellness, peace and more happiness.

As a counselor and a person, I am compassionate, curious, and playful. I feel that honoring your past, listening to your personal experiences and respecting your convictions are important to better understand how you make sense of your world. My primary goal in working with clients is to provide a safe and non-judgmental environment in which you will feel empowered to explore the difficult aspects of your life.

"I just want to feel better." "I'm so stuck in this pattern and I don't know how to break it." "I'm so consumed by worry and anxiety about my relationship/my kids/my job." You are unique AND you are human. If you're struggling to live this life, AND make it a meaningful and fulfilling one, we should talk. We want to help you look back on your life and feel it was one well-lived. We want to help you heal from your past so you can move forward with greater confidence and self-love. Everyday we see people step outside of their comfort zone and grow, and yes it's terrifying, but you will be equipped with the skills to do it.

The difficulties and challenges in life can repeat again and again like waves crashing against your life. Let us assist in moving away from those days of old and towards healing. Take a chance on an adventure that can start building a life and legacy that fits your true and authentic self. This version has vitality, stability, serenity, renewal, is moving on towards healing and growth.

Asking for support can be difficult and intimidating. It’s important to find the right fit between client and therapist. I create a therapeutic environment that is client directed and immediately focuses on the goals that you want to achieve. My agenda is YOUR agenda, and we will move at the pace you desire! I believe everyone’s life is just that… their life and no one else’s. While we often cannot control the cards we are dealt, we can learn to determine and control how we respond to them and what decisions we make with them.

New Client waitlist earliest appts June 2024. Vickie Gerber is an LPC and is a mental health therapist with Rise Above Wellness/Performance Counseling. She earned her Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Adams State University in 2015. Vickie specializes in working with adults and older adolescents (16+) dealing with chronic pain, athletic performance and acute injury prevention and recovery.

Depression, bi-polar, schizophrenia, and other mental health problems can distort the way we see ourselves and the world around us. If there ever comes a time when you feel your life is not worth living, know that your friends and family would NOT be better off without you, the world would NOT be better without you in it, your life is NOT a joke, and everyone who knows you would miss you! Happiness is possible- you just need to make it through one more day. I know this might be a bit heavy for some of you to relate to, or perhaps you do relate to it but feel guilt or shame for not being happy 24/7.

I have diverse clinical experience with children and their families in community settings, as well as in elementary and pre-school settings. I also have great experience with helping children navigate developmental disabilities, behavioral and mood disorders, divorce, separation, and stepfamily dynamics. I have worked with many children who have been exposed to trauma including, abuse, neglect, and domestic violence. I believe that involving the family, parents, and other primary caregivers in the therapeutic process provides the best possible resolution for the toughest challenges.

“I always worry about something”… “Why do I keep getting into that kind of relationship?”… “That’s when I had my first panic attack”… “I just want to lie in bed all day”… “If I gain weight, no one will want me”… “Food is my drug”… I have heard these things throughout my career, and if you recognize yourself in any of these, I’ll be glad to help you.

Come as you are and we will work together to find balance, heal, and make the desired changes in a judgement-free environment.

Do you feel lost or broken? Do you find yourself entrapped by negative cycles of thought and addiction? Are you feeling like you do not recognize yourself, or are disconnected from relationships? Do you find that you are overwhelmed or struggling to motivate yourself?

“Pain from my past keeps me from truly enjoying my life”, “There are so many things about myself I wish were different”, “My anxiety is painful and I feel exhausted ”, “I feel unfulfilled in my relationships”. Does any of this resonate with you? Life throws many obstacles our way, and it can feel extremely defeating at times. Do you desire to know yourself on a deeper level and connect to the aspects of yourself that make you unique and special? I believe one of the bravest things you can do is take time to acknowledge your pain and embrace your individual story. You deserve to be seen, heard, and understood.
