Welcome
Choosing a therapist can be a confusing process. I’ve designed this site so that you can learn about me and my practice. I recognize that it can be a big step for many to pursue psychological services for ourselves or for our children. Therapy is an investment in time, energy and finances that can show significant life changing outcomes. Psychological treatment is NOT one size fits all. The single best predictor in successful therapeutic outcomes has to do with the match between you or your child and the therapist you choose. That is why it is worth your time at the outset to obtain trusted referrals from friends, family, or other professionals. I encourage you to look through the information I have provided on this site and then call me to discuss your specific needs.
about Me
Dr. Michael Griffith
I am a licensed clinical psychologist located in Fort Collins, Colorado with more than 30 years of experience. I work with adolescents and adults, specializing in teen and young adult athletes as they learn to navigate the complexities of today’s increasingly challenging world.
Therapy & Counseling
I offer psychological consultation and ongoing psychotherapy, specializing in work with adolescents and young adults. Research has consistently shown that for many individuals with problems such as anxiety and depression, the impacts of a positive therapy relationship are often equal to or even more effective than medication. In successful therapy you will identify and develop more effective ways of dealing with the problems you may be experiencing in life. The emotional and life coping skills developed in therapy will extend far beyond the time of our work together.
Sport & Performance
I have over 18 years of sport specific mental training experience working with athletes in a variety of team and individual sports, ranging from recreational and high school athletes to elite college and Olympic level athletes. Effective sport psychology approaches help athletes develop their mental skills in the areas of confidence building, motivation, mindset training, visualization, goal setting and physical relaxation training. I provide adolescent and young adult clients with a uniquely challenging and supportive environment that promotes emotional growth, self-awareness and mental strengths well beyond their performance on the athletic field.
