About The Practice

Adam Garcia Walterbach, LCSW is a licensed Denver LGBTQ therapist, offering individual therapy and couples counseling to LGBTQ individuals, couples, and professionals throughout Colorado and California. His practice addresses identity concerns, relational patterns, career and life transitions, and deeper emotional themes that drive enduring change.

My Clients

I provide support for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer individuals navigating shame, identity development, intimacy, and the lingering effects of rejection or concealment. Even after coming out, these experiences can continue to shape intimacy, self-trust, and emotional expression. Therapy offers a space to examine how these early and ongoing pressures still influence relationships, identity, and choice. As a gay Denver therapist working extensively with gay men and LGBTQ individuals, I help clients explore how identity-related stress, internalized expectations, and relational history shape emotional patterns in adulthood. This work is especially relevant for those seeking LGBTQ-affirming therapy, making lasting lasting psychological change and more meaningful engagment.

I work with professionals, entrepreneurs, and Denver startup employees who appear successful yet feel stalled, conflicted, or disengaged. Therapy addresses perfectionism, burnout, avoidance, and the emotional patterns that shape career satisfaction and self-direction.

In couples therapy I focus on conflict, desire, emotional distance, and repetitive relational patterns. I work with both LGBTQ couples and heterosexual couples seeking deeper connection without sacrificing individual agency.

My clients often report to me the following outcomes:

• Greater emotional clarity and self-direction

• Improved intimacy and more honest communication

• Reduced reliance on avoidance, overthinking, or self-criticism

• Increased capacity to tolerate vulnerability and desire

• More deliberate, grounded decision-making in work and relationships

How I Work

Therapy is collaborative, insight-oriented, and focused on understanding the emotional and relational patterns that organize a person’s life. Rather than symptom management alone, the work aims to clarify what is being avoided, repeated, or defended against so change becomes deliberate rather than reactive. As a Denver psychotherapist I hold myself and my clients accountable so that results are effective and impactful.
