Counseling Practice – Rooted in Recovery Counseling PLLC
Rooted in Recovery Counseling PLLC is a therapy practice based in Lakewood, Colorado, at 950 Wadsworth Boulevard, Suite 202. The practice is led by Veronica Tunis, MA, LPC, NCC, a Licensed Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor who specializes in addiction recovery, disordered eating, maternal mental health, and a range of co-occurring concerns. The practice serves adults seeking individual counseling, couples navigating relationship challenges, and women who benefit from group-based support.
Specialty areas addressed by the practice include addiction and substance abuse, disordered eating, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, family conflict, and parenting challenges. Life transitions and maternal mental health are also core focus areas, with dedicated support offered for prenatal and postpartum experiences. Tunis’s stated clinical orientation centers on helping clients reconnect with themselves and release thoughts or behaviors that no longer serve them, guiding this work through a lens of compassion and individualized attention.
Group programming plays a meaningful role in the practice’s service model. Current group offerings include a Women’s Empowerment Group, a Women in Recovery Support Group, and a Support Group for New Mothers. These groups are designed specifically for women navigating recovery, personal growth, and the transition into motherhood, and they are offered alongside the individual and couples therapy services available through the practice. Group participation provides a structured, community-oriented setting that complements the work clients may also pursue in one-on-one sessions.
Session formats include both in-person appointments at the Lakewood office and telehealth options, providing flexibility for clients across the broader Denver metro area. Communities served include Denver, Littleton, Wheat Ridge, and Golden, and the Wadsworth Boulevard office is accessible via RTD bus and lightrail, a practical consideration for clients who rely on public transit rather than personal vehicles.
Prospective clients are invited to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation by calling 303-800-3259 before committing to an intake appointment. Specific details regarding accepted insurance plans or self-pay rates are not listed on the practice’s website.
