About Toni
Toni Kooy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and struggles with self-esteem. She also supports those dealing with addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, parenting strain, mood issues, and panic. Toni writes plainly and listens without judgment to help people feel understood and move forward.
Toni uses both short-term and longer-term goals to shape therapy. She draws on practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and on skills to manage strong emotions.
Background and approach
Her style is steady and down-to-earth, aiming to build confidence and better decision making. She trained at the University of Colorado, earning a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in counseling. Toni has worked in substance use and community mental health settings since 2004, giving her about 20 years of experience with a broad range of concerns and life situations.
Her background includes hands-on work in rural and urban community mental health centers. In that work she supported people of many ages and worked frequently with trauma, loss, and mood disorders. Her training has included trauma-focused methods and EMDR as part of that learning.
Toni’s previous jobs outside therapy include musician, construction worker, nanny, homemaker, and assembly worker, which she says inform her nonjudgmental approach. She invites people who want practical skills and steady support to consider working together.

Online support
How Toni’s Methods Translate to Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. In practice that means sessions start with what matters most to the person and the therapist reflects back concerns and strengths to guide the process. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and offers concrete steps to change patterns that get in the way of daily functioning. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is a trauma-informed approach used to process distressing memories and reduce their hold on current life; it is offered as one option when trauma is part of the work.Finding the right method is part of therapy. The therapist works collaboratively to choose approaches based on needs, goals, and personal preferences. That means trying tools, checking in about what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than assuming a single path up front.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face-to-face when that matters. Phone sessions can fit a low-bandwidth or hands-free check-in. Live chat and text messaging work well for shorter check-ins, processing between sessions, or when typing feels easier than talking. These options give flexibility so people can fit therapy into busy or changing schedules.
