Welcome to River’s Edge Counseling

At River’s Edge Counseling Services, we provide individual, couples, and family therapy in Fort Collins, Colorado. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship challenges, trauma, grief & loss, trauma from mental health and first responder work, ADHD, or a difficult life transition, therapy should be a place where you can speak openly, be treated with respect, and develop practical strategies for lasting change. Our approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and grounded in genuine human connection. Our goal isn’t simply to help you feel better—it’s to help you build the skills and insight to move forward with confidence.

Meet Keith Colton, LCSW

My name is Keith Colton, LCSW. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and psychotherapist in Fort Collins, I have worked with individuals, couples, families, and first responder/mental health professionals across a wide range of concerns. My experience includes outpatient therapy, addiction treatment, clinical leadership, supervision, and collaboration with healthcare providers to help clients receive coordinated, high-quality care. Every client brings a unique story. Rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor therapy to your goals, strengths, and circumstances.

Our mission is to provide real, honest, comprehensive and compassionate services with a non-judgmental, supportive and persistent approach.

Evidence based Therapy

My approach draws from extensive clinical experience across a wide range of mental health concerns. I provide practical, evidence-based therapy supported by research and tailored to each client’s needs.

Growth Oriented

I provide personalized treatment tailored to the unique needs and goals of each client. Lasting change comes from building skills, insight, and resilience—not simply managing symptoms.

Collaborative approach

I collaborate with healthcare providers, families, and other systems when appropriate to support comprehensive, coordinated mental health care. I also maintain a broad referral network when additional or specialized services are needed.
