About Summer
Summer Batini is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with seven years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, low self-esteem, depression, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses related issues such as attachment and abandonment, communication problems, and isolation or loneliness.
She uses down-to-earth conversation to help people name what feels overwhelming. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer thinking rather than long lectures or medical labels. Summer aims to help clients notice patterns that keep them stuck and try small changes that fit daily life.
Her background emphasizes approaches that encourage acceptance, present-moment awareness, and values-based action. She often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness practices to help people clarify what matters to them. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone wants help finding the drive to change habits like substance use or unhealthy coping.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills appear in her work when clients need concrete tools for emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness. Across sessions she keeps the plan practical - building skills, experimenting with new behaviors, and checking what works. Summer frames therapy as a collaborative process where goals are adjusted as progress is made.
She practices in Colorado and conducts sessions in English. People who are considering therapy are asked to use the site's matching steps to schedule an initial appointment and to confirm the current session options before booking.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and values, then take small steps toward what matters. This can help when social situations feel overwhelming or when someone wants clearer life direction. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and reflecting so a person can find their own solutions; online sessions use that same conversational stance to clarify priorities and next steps. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supplies concrete skills for emotion regulation and communication, useful for moments of intense anxiety or relationship strain.Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each client to decide which methods feel most helpful based on goals, preferences, and how someone responds in early sessions. Adjustments are made over time rather than set in stone at the first meeting.
Confirm the exact session formats before making a first appointment. The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy day, shorter check-ins when time is limited, and options that avoid travel. These features can make it easier to practice skills between sessions and keep momentum while managing work, family, or other responsibilities.
