About Donald
Donald Rincon is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Colorado with 17 years of experience. He has worked across settings such as residential treatment centers, emergency rooms, and in-home family therapy. Donald helps adults and individuals concerned about family and parenting issues find practical ways to manage stress and difficult emotions.
He has supported people facing trauma, including emotional, physical, and sexual abuse, as well as anger, depression, grief, anxiety, relationship strain, and struggles with addiction. He also addresses intimacy-related concerns, sleep and eating problems, and mood conditions like bipolar disorder.
Donald keeps sessions straightforward and down-to-earth. He describes his counseling style as open, honest, and experiential, bringing compassion and a sense of humor into the work. He looks for strengths clients already have and uses those strengths to help them through challenging moments.
His background includes a Master of Social Work from the University of Denver earned in 2005 and long clinical experience in varied treatment settings. That mix of training and hands-on work shapes how he approaches problems that come up in day-to-day life.
Donald combines several evidence-based techniques and tailors them to each person's needs. He prefers a collaborative, flexible process where solutions are practical, creative, and matched to the client's goals.
Approaches that guide online work and fit
Donald often draws on trauma-focused work to help people process painful events and reduce their ongoing impact. That approach looks at the ways past hurt affects day-to-day feelings and relationships, and it uses practical steps to help people feel more in control.He also uses cognitive behavioral style techniques that focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral changes. This can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep difficulties, and stress that gets in the way of daily life.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Over time they adjust strategies based on what works, combining methods when that makes sense for the client's needs.
For online therapy specifically, please confirm current session options before booking as formats are not listed here. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when that helps. They can also make it simpler to continue care after a move or between other appointments while keeping the same therapist relationship.
