Compellingly rewarding therapy and counseling for Denverites seeking assistance with professional development, LGBTQ identity, & other therapeutic needs. My name is Adam Garcia Walterbach LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker). I am a Denver psychotherapist who specializes in helping LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer) clients and consulting young professionals here in the Denver startup scene and other professional settings.
I conduct both individual therapy and couples counseling sessions for heterosexual and LGBTQ clients. When deciding to seek therapy, you are making the conscious choice to pursue the desired changes in your life to optimize and increase your overall well being. You're investing in a better version of yourself, becoming the hero of your story.

Services
I began my journey providing psychotherapy in Los Angeles, CA and decided to trade in beaches and the endless Summer for green spaces, mountains, and clearly defined seasons (AKA Denver, CO). I received my Bachelor's in Science of Social Work at Bowling Green State University and then proceeded to obtain my Master's of Social Work, with a special focus on mental health, at the University of Southern California.
My office building is located directly across the street from the Macy's at the Cherry Creek Mall. 2 Hour guest parking is available in the South lot on a first come first serve basis. The South lot is located behind the building (photo above is of the back of the building), you will need to travel down an alleyway accessible from either of the side streets, E Ellsworth or E Bayaud Ave.
Again, this depends entirely on your therapeutic goals. With that said I recommend coming to session on a weekly basis for your first month. Your frequency in attendance is always negotiable and I want to respect your pace as well as your availability. I offer free 30 minute consultation calls. Please go to the contact page for information about how to reach out to me.
There are many facets and complexities when it comes to LGBTQ identity. While having studied LGBTQ culture, psychology, and history extensively, I also understand the intricacies of sexual identity through my identification along the spectrum. While the fight for equality continues, problems facing the community continue to rage onward at institutional, societal, familial, and individual levels.
The Denver startup scene can be a challenging landscape to navigate. Because you are working in a startup, you are more likely to encounter an increased workload, longer hours, frequent changes, and a focus on constant growth. All of this can be draining. Perhaps you are the CEO of your company, an entrepreneur looking to start a new venture, or someone working in either an up and coming company or a more stable environment.

I've been seeing Adam consistently for a few months and I can attest to the positive impact he has had in my life. Adam always provides approachable solutions to every day problems. He is compassionate and present. He has given me the tools to navigate both my interpersonal and professional relationships. Adam has flexible hours which makes scheduling easy and I find that the quality of service provided often exceeds the price of a session. I am grateful to have found Adam!

I started seeing Adam when my life was in quite a bit of disarray and although I believe in therapy, was reluctant because of my mindset. The first few months were tough, he forced me to face some inner demons and I had many a difficult session, but where I am today speaks volumes about how helpful he is. I feel welcome, safe, and listened to during our sessions. I am at times challenged, but never judged, and Adam provides ideas, reading, and resources to continue working on myself outside of our appointments which is beyond beneficial to ensure I continue moving forward with my growth.

I started seeing Adam weekly for my concerns of anxiety. I was VERY excited to start with him. Initially, he was willing to help navigate conversation, but stopped after several sessions, even when I expressed that I needed direction. Most importantly, I desperately tried to make him see me, make him see my anxiety. Desperately. Every session I left feeling like the bad guy. The only thing he recommended was for me to read the iChing. The i-freaking-Ching. No thanks.
