Our Story
feed your mind, free your soul

The path to mental health healing can feel like hiking an intimidating mountain, in a snowstorm, with no trail markers. It can feel scary, overwhelming, and like a journey you are not ready to begin alone. We are here to guide you, one step at a time, at your pace, with all the trail snacks. We believe no mental health mountain is too tall for you to summit. 

 

Embarking on the journey to growth and self-discovery is a deeply personal experience for each individual. Our aim is to be there for you every step of the way, guiding you toward your desired destination. With expertise in both private practice counseling and neurofeedback, our team has had the privilege of assisting individuals and couples facing a spectrum of challenges—from anxiety and depression to relationship struggles, ADHD, boundary-setting, and beyond. There's nothing quite like being part of someone's journey to self-realization, witnessing them harness their inner strength to enact positive, enduring changes.

Marina Buswell

MA, LPC, BCN

My name is Marina Buswell, MA, LPC, BCN. I am a Board-Certified Neurotherapist, with a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a License in Professional Counseling in the state of Colorado. Over the years I have had the incredible opportunity to watch people take their first steps in self-development by focusing on their mental health.

I am here to offer support and guidance to help you reach your mental health goals.

I am  passionate about mental and physical wellbeing and providing a space for people to learn more about themselves and how they can live a more fulfilling authentic life.

When I am outside of the confidential counseling office I enjoy live concerts (especially at red rocks), yoga, snowboarding, reading, camping, and spending time with my friends and family. Living a healthy lifestyle includes self care and good relationships so they are always a top priority!

Aleix Lyon

MA, LPCC

My name is Aleix Lyon and I am so excited to join the team at Golden Counseling Center. My goal is for you to feel understood, cared for, and empowered in this process. I want to honor the courage and commitment that it took for you to seek counseling, and serve as a resource for you as you work towards achieving your mental health goals. 

 

I studied Psychology and Communication at the University of Colorado in Boulder, and am currently working towards my master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Colorado Christian University. Upon completing this program, I plan on becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado.

 

My previous professional experience has allowed me to work with teens and adults in a variety of nonprofit settings, in which I have assisted them in identifying goals and navigating life's transitions and difficulties. In my free time, you can find me skiing, going to concerts with my husband, and spending time with my friends and family.

Lauryn

Lauryn Gatschet

Masters Level Intern- Level I

My name is Lauryn Gatschet and I want to start by congratulating you on the first step towards healing. Seeking out help can be hard, and I am here to support you as you navigate the difficult obstacles of life.  As a trained neurofeedback technician I know the importance of brain health and individualized care and I incorporate this knowledge into our sessions.

​

I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and I am currently pursuing a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have been in the neurofeedback field since 2023 working closely under Marina’s supervision. My previous experience includes working with children and adolescents in school and clinical settings. It is because of my education and experience that I utilize an approach based on compassion and understanding.

​

In my free time, I love to lose myself in a good book, explore new coffee shops, and spend quality time with my husband. As we get to know each other I hope to learn more about the things that fill you up as well!
