Adam Stanford

Adam Stanford is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Addiction Counselor based in Denver, CO. He specializes in working with individuals and couples who don’t fit neatly into the mainstream, including folks who are queer, neurodivergent, kinky, sex-positive, highly sensitive, and non-monogamous. He adapts evidence-based methods, including CBT, DBT, EMDR, and Gottman, for these populations so they can benefit from effective treatments not initially designed with them in mind.

His work comes from lived experience, not just textbooks. He’s navigated his own mental health and therapy journey as a neurodivergent, highly sensitive member of the queer community, and built a practice around people who don't fit the mainstream mold. He takes a direct, active approach focused on skills-building.
