Summer Batini

Summer Batini is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Colorado who creates a steady, supportive space for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, or life changes. She offers calm, practical guidance for those struggling with addictions, parenting strain, relationship conflict, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. Summer keeps language simple and sessions focused on clear steps forward.

She draws on mindfulness practices to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting swept away. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) tools are used to clarify values and guide small, purposeful actions. Client-Centered methods shape sessions around each person’s priorities and rhythm.

Summer also incorporates skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Motivational Interviewing when they fit a person's goals. That can mean learning emotion regulation skills, improving communication, or building motivation for change. Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth, with sessions tailored to the problem at hand.

Summer has seven years of clinical experience working with trauma and abuse, attachment and abandonment concerns, blended family issues, and eating or body image struggles. She helps people cope with isolation, guilt, shame, and the search for life purpose. The emphasis is on practical strategies that can be used between sessions.

People who want to begin are invited to follow the site's Start Therapy steps to match and schedule. Summer offers evening and weekend appointment times to fit busy routines.

How mindfulness and acceptance shape online therapy

Mindfulness Therapy focuses on simple attention practices that help people notice thoughts and bodily sensations without reacting automatically. This can be useful for anxiety, stress, grief, and helping with urges related to addictions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes clarifying personal values and taking small, committed actions toward those values even when feelings are difficult. It often helps people who feel stuck or are coping with life transitions by turning intentions into practical steps.

Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s experience at the center of sessions, using empathic listening so goals come from what matters to the individual. Together these approaches offer tools for emotion regulation, clearer communication, and rebuilding purpose after hard experiences.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to test methods and adjust based on what helps most. That collaborative process makes it easier to tailor sessions to specific goals and daily demands.

Confirm available session formats before booking since the profile does not list them explicitly. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. These practical benefits help people keep therapy consistent while working on mindfulness, values-based actions, and skill building.
