Juli Waters Therapy: About Me
Hi, I’m Juli Waters.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Salida, Colorado. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and nervous system dysregulation. My work is deeply trauma-informed and integrates several evidence-based and body-centered modalities, including Somatic Therapy, EMDR, and Internal Family Systems (IFS). These approaches help clients safely access and process difficult emotions, understand core patterns, and reconnect with a sense of inner stability and resilience. Whether we are working with the body, the nervous system, or parts of the self, my goal is always to create a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered.
In addition to traditional therapy, I offer ketamine-assisted therapy and psilocybin-assisted therapy within Colorado’s regulated Natural Medicine framework. As a Licensed Clinical Facilitator, I provide psilocybin assisted therapy at a licensed Healing Center, where safety, preparation, and integration are central to the process. Psilocybin therapy includes two preparation sessions, one facilitated journey, and a dedicated integration session to help clients meaningfully apply insights to everyday life.
My approach to psychedelic-assisted therapy is thoughtful and intentional. Ketamine and psilocybin differ in how they work in the brain, and I help clients understand which modality may best align with their needs, goals, and comfort levels. Regardless of the path, my priority is to create a calm, attuned, and trauma-informed space where clients can safely explore their inner world and access deeper layers of healing.
At the heart of my work is a belief in each person’s inherent capacity for growth. I’m honored to walk alongside clients as they reconnect with themselves, rediscover resilience, and move toward lives that feel meaningful and aligned.
If you'd like support deciding whether traditional therapy, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, or psilocybin-assisted therapy is right for you, I’m here to help. have been a professional therapist specializing in trauma since 2008. I do this work because I believe that every person has the innate ability to heal and grow. It is my sincere honor to walk with my clients on this journey we all share toward internal acceptance, balance, and belonging.

Free Consultations Available
Ketamine is the first legally prescribed psychedelic that can be used for psychedelic therapy in Colorado.
Ketamine is safe, effective, and legal medicine that has been used for decades to lift the symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other conditions. Ketamine is well-researched and is considered an essential medicine by the World Health Organization.
Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy is the process of combining the medicine (ketamine) with the work of a trained psychedelic therapist. The combination of using the medicine as a tool, along with the relationship and guidance of the therapist is what makes this treatment extremely effective.

Ketamine is a dissociative, and creates a sense of feeling detached from the body and overall sense of self. Most clients experience this as pleasant and interesting. The ketamine experience is different for each client, but clients report any of the following experiences: pleasant body sensations, a sense of relaxation, shifts in the emotional experiences, and a dream like state, which can include visual experiences.
