Charlotte Bouchard, LPC, EMDRIA Certified Therapist™
My path to becoming a therapist grew out of my own healing journey and a deep curiosity about how people recover from trauma and reconnect with themselves. Through my personal experiences, I developed a profound respect for the resilience of the human spirit and a desire to help others discover their own capacity for healing.
Before entering the mental health field, I began my career in the healing arts as a massage therapist. That work gave me an appreciation for the wisdom of the body and the ways trauma can become stored in our nervous systems. It also cultivated the holistic, mind-body perspective that continues to guide my work today.
My personal and professional journey took a transformative turn through my own experiences with psychedelic healing. Those experiences expanded my understanding of what is possible in recovery and sparked a lasting interest in the therapeutic potential of psychedelic-assisted care. Psychedelics deepened my belief that healing is not simply about reducing symptoms, but about reclaiming meaning, connection, and a sense of wholeness.
I later earned my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a focus on mindfulness-based approaches. Since becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado in 2021, I have continued to deepen my work through advanced training in trauma treatment, becoming an EMDRIA Certified Therapist™ and a Certified Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy provider.
At the heart of my work is the belief that meaningful change happens when people feel truly seen, safe, and accepted. I view many symptoms not as signs that something is wrong with us, but as understandable adaptations to what we have lived through. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in the understanding that healing occurs when we address both the mind and body. By integrating EMDR, mindfulness, somatic awareness, and psychedelic-assisted therapy, I help clients move beyond survival mode, reconnect with their authentic selves, and create lasting change.

His leadership reminds us that inclusivity can be joyful, a little messy, and rooted in genuine connection.
DEI Director
Babaganoush (aka Da Baba)
Babaganoush, a sleek and discerning tortico, serves as the Chief Operations Officer at Wild Lotus Counseling. With an unmistakable air of authority, she oversees the daily rhythm of the practice—whether that means supervising office logistics or thoughtfully knocking supplies off the counter to ensure quality control. Nothing escapes Da Baba.
When she’s not visibly on duty, Babaganoush is likely conducting high-level “operations review” (or napping in the closet). Equal parts strategic and delightfully unpredictable, she brings a mix of precision, chaos, and charm to the team. Her leadership keeps things running smoothly and has earned her the well-deserved title of Chief Purrations Officer.
