About Yale Lewis, MS, LPC
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado and the founder of Yale Lewis Counseling, which I started in 2018. I work with adults who are carrying a lot and are used to carrying it alone.
Where I come from
Hockey was my life for a long time. I played at Cushing Academy, for the U.S. national team program, in the USHL with the Omaha Lancers, and at Northeastern University, where I captained the team. After a year away from the game, I played professionally in Denmark. That career taught me discipline and resilience. It also showed me what happens to people when their identity is built on performing and the performing stops, or stops working. That is a big part of why I became a therapist.
How I work
My work is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). Sessions are structured but human. We set clear goals, check progress together, and adjust when something isn't working. I'm direct, and I'll tell you what I see. You set the pace on what we talk about.
