Professional Experience:
Hi, I am Rakhshi and I like to say that I am from Pakistan via Fort Collins. I received
my bachelor’s degree in psychology from Rocky Mountain College in Billings, Mont.
and a master’s degree in marriage and family therapy from the University of Colorado
at Denver.
I attained my Certified Addictions Counselor level II and Licensed Professional Counselor
credentials while working at The Council in Denver. I was there for 11 years, the
last six years as the clinical director of this nonprofit agency.
Through education and life experiences I have gained many tools that have helped
me during my time as GEAR UP outreach coordinator. I have extensive experience working
with a diverse population. I especially enjoy working with students and families to
provide students with the opportunity to attain a college education and achieve personal
academic excellence through GEAR UP activities.
