Joseph Frey MA LMFT, CCTP, EMDR Trained

Hi, my name is Jody (Joseph) Frey and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in CO and MN. Thanks for reaching out and for wanting to learn more about me. I have been serving people for over 25 years in a variety of settings: military, business, and therapy. For over 7 years, I have been focusing on helping people resolve their trauma utilizing the narrative approach mixed with the success principles. I am also trained in EMDR.  I am a member of the AAMFT (American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy) and IATP (International Association of Trauma Professionals) as well as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). I fully believe that no single approach works for all people in all situations so we will work together to understand and define your unique challenges. From there, we will focus on developing your goals and find the best plan to reach those goals. Sometimes, we might need to resolve past traumas, lessen your anxiety, or improve depressive symptoms. If this is the case, I work from a unique and very interactive approach to help you find peace and move forward. We will work on understanding the mind-body connection and how it impacts you. I also enjoy helping people advance their lives utilizing a coaching approach. My therapy style is really a fun/challenging alternative to ‘traditional’ talk therapy.  Looking for a peaceful, quiet environment.... want to hike or workout while we work through some issues? Want an active, focused, confrontive, challenging, unique or different counseling approach? Call me. Clients often tell me I am not like their past therapists. I am different and want to get deep to the root of your struggles/trauma and help you move beyond how those define you. This style has been developed from 6 years active duty as an Army Officer, 10 years in corporate leadership, 15 years running my own successful business, and 7 years as a therapist helping others. My clients often enjoy my challenging and focused style and find comfort as we draw out their inner dialogue which is negatively impacting their current emotional state. Outside of therapy, I love techie stuff and enjoy sports, working out, and playing video games.
