See George's Details for:
George S Yerger, MA, LPCC, is a somatic, trauma-focused therapist who works with adults (18+) navigating patterns rooted in complex trauma (CPTSD) and developmental wounding. His work is especially suited for people who feel anxious, on edge, or unsettled in their bodies, and who may experience disconnection from themselves or others. Many arrive frustrated by coping strategies that no longer bring relief and with a sense that something deeper is shaping their emotions, behaviors, and sense of self.
His approach is grounded in the understanding that meaningful change cannot be forced through insight alone. Drawing from Gestalt therapy and transpersonal psychology, he helps clients explore how early experiences and unprocessed trauma are held in the nervous system and continue to shape present-day patterns. Therapy focuses on building awareness and embodied regulation so new ways of relating can emerge gradually and sustainably.
George works collaboratively, offering steady guidance while respecting each client’s sovereignty and lived experience. His style is calm, attuned, and relational, with sessions shaped by what is most present for the client as the work unfolds, rather than a fixed agenda. He understands healing as something that unfolds in a nonjudgmental space where the body can feel supported.
In addition to his work with complex trauma, George has specialized experience in psychedelic integration and the support of non-ordinary experiences. He works with individuals navigating panic, dissociation, existential distress, or lingering disorientation following these experiences. He offers individual therapy via telehealth throughout Colorado, with limited in-person availability in Longmont and nature-based sessions along the Front Range when weather permits.
