About Cherry Hills Village, CO

Medication Management
Medication management at Cottonwood Psychiatry begins with a detailed evaluation of the patient’s overall mental health and individual circumstances. Dr. Colleen McGuire reviews symptoms, medical and psychiatric history, current medications, lifestyle considerations, and treatment goals to determine whether medication is an appropriate part of care.
When medication is recommended, treatment is monitored through ongoing appointments. Dr. McGuire works directly with patients to evaluate their response, discuss concerns, and make adjustments when clinically appropriate. Medication management can be incorporated alongside therapy and other strategies, allowing treatment to address the individual as a whole rather than focusing exclusively on symptoms.
Therapy
Virtual therapy at Cottonwood Psychiatry gives patients a confidential setting to explore their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, relationships, and personal experiences. Dr. McGuire provides therapy directly and can incorporate different evidence-based approaches depending on the patient’s needs and goals.
Therapy may be helpful for individuals working through anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, stress, major life changes, or recurring patterns that affect their emotional well-being. Because appointments are virtual, Cherry Hills Village residents can participate from home or another private setting without traveling to a physical practice.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps patients examine the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Through CBT, Dr. McGuire can help patients recognize thinking patterns that contribute to distress and develop alternative ways to interpret and respond to challenging circumstances.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides practical skills for managing difficult emotions and navigating challenging situations. DBT incorporates techniques related to mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Psychodynamic Therapy
Psychodynamic Therapy looks beyond immediate symptoms to consider the emotional patterns and experiences that may influence present-day behavior.
