Jailyn Grahek

My name is Jailyn Grahek, and I am currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at the University of Colorado–Colorado Springs. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Oregon State University and am continuing to build my clinical skills through education and training.

As a counselor-in-training, I strive to create a supportive, empathetic, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel safe to explore their thoughts, emotions, and personal goals. I believe that each individual is the expert on their own life, and my role is to walk alongside you as you navigate challenges and work toward healing and growth.

My approach is primarily person-centered and trauma-informed, allowing me to meet clients where they are with compassion and respect. I have a special interest in working with adolescents, individuals experiencing anxiety, and members of the LGBTQ+ community.

I am trained in Psychological First Aid through The National Child Traumatic Stress Network, which has strengthened my ability to support individuals during times of crisis and distress.

I am passionate about working with people of all backgrounds and identities, and I am committed to fostering a therapeutic space built on trust, safety, and collaboration. Together, we can explore your strengths, build resilience, and work toward improved emotional well-being.
