Brad Carney, LCSW, MSW

Therapist | Owner

I’m a licensed therapist offering thoughtful, high-quality care for adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and emotional overwhelm or numbness. Clients often describe me as warm, grounded, and real. I bring authenticity, humor, and deep emotional attunement into our work together.

I specialize in working with thoughtful, self-aware individuals who often overthink, show up for everyone else, and struggle to show up for themselves. Our work focuses on helping you reconnect with your emotions, understand your patterns, and create a life that feels more aligned, balanced, and fulfilling.

My approach is trauma-informed, emotion-focused, and highly personalized. Rather than one-size-fits-all therapy, we’ll work at your pace to build insight, regulate your nervous system, and create meaningful, lasting change in how you experience yourself and the world around you.

I work with adult clients in Colorado (in-person and virtual), Utah (virtual), and Virginia (virtual). If you’re ready for therapy that goes deeper and supports real transformation, I’d love to connect.

You may be a good fit for therapy with me if you…

• Feel caught in cycles of anxiety and overthinking
• Are navigating life transitions or questioning your direction in life
• Struggle with emotional disconnection or difficulty expressing what you feel
• Want to build healthier relationships and deeper connection with others
• Are exploring authenticity and personal growth
• Want a space to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with yourself

 

Where I work:

At Golden Peaks Counseling, I offer both in-person and Telehealth sessions to meet clients where they feel most comfortable. For in-person sessions, my office is conveniently located in the Glendale area at 3955 E Exposition Ave, Suite 214, Denver, CO 80209

For clients living in Virginia, Utah, or Colorado, I offer virtual sessions as well. Whether we meet in person or virtually, my goal is to provide a flexible and accessible experience for all clients.

  • My experience spans inpatient hospitals, outpatient group practices, and community mental health, leading to the development of my own private practice that I have grown successfully over the past couple of years.

    With thousands of hours of clinical experience and advanced training, I bring a depth of insight that supports real, lasting change.

I’m originally from Colorado and have also lived in Utah and Virginia, and these experiences have shaped how I view identity, culture, and belonging.

Outside the therapy room, I enjoy playing volleyball, exploring mountain trails, and spending time with my partner and our golden retriever named Kevin.

I’m also a proud Swiftie (so a Taylor Swift lyric may occasionally appear), and I’ll never say no to sushi or watching the sunset with my friends or family.

I believe in being human, and I am not a robotic clinician. I bring warmth, honesty, humor, and a down-to-earth presence to the work we do together.
