About Stephen

Stephen Drozda is a licensed psychologist in Colorado with nearly five decades of clinical experience. He holds a master's degree (M.A.) and a doctoral degree (Ph.D.) in psychology from the University of Missouri-Columbia and practices under the Colorado license CO Psychologist 1255. Over his career he has worked as a psychotherapist, psychological evaluator, administrator, and graduate-level instructor, and he has provided services in outpatient clinics, hospitals, residential treatment centers, nursing facilities, and an office-based practice.

For more than three decades he has lived and worked in the Denver area, offering therapy from a primarily cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused orientation while incorporating techniques from dialectical behavior therapy when appropriate. He sees a range of age groups including seniors, and he frequently addresses concerns such as depression, anxiety, relationship and family or parenting problems, trauma and abuse, adjustment to life changes, and issues related to aging and health. His approach is active and problem-focused, emphasizing practical steps clients can take to reach their goals and to build resilience for future challenges.

He conducts most client sessions by video or phone and typically responds to client messages between sessions, usually within a day. He is married and the father of two children who work in the performing arts; his personal interests include travel, outdoor activities, music, theater, and lifelong learning. He is not accepting new clients at this time.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is practical and skills-oriented, often used for issues like anxiety, depression, and stress by helping people develop coping strategies and clearer problem-solving methods.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and reducing impulsive behaviors. It can be especially helpful for people who struggle with emotion regulation, relationship conflict, or patterns of self-destructive behavior.

Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes setting clear, achievable goals and building on a person’s existing strengths. It helps clients create step-by-step plans to make meaningful change and is often used for adjustment, life transitions, and practical problem solving.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. He and the client will work together to determine which methods fit the client’s needs, goals, and preferences, and may combine techniques from these approaches to tailor care.

Online therapy offers practical benefits such as flexible scheduling and easier access to sessions through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life, to maintain continuity during life changes, and to connect with licensed professionals from different settings.
