Ignite Counseling Colorado has been named a 2026 Colorado Companies to Watch award winner, recognizing the practice's growth and dedication to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care across the state. The award, founded in 2009, honors second-stage companies that demonstrate strong performance, leadership, and community impact.
For Ignite Counseling Colorado, the recognition marks a significant milestone since its founding in 2018 by Carla D'Agostino-Vigil, who started the practice with a focus on exceptional clinical care. What began as a solo practice has grown into a team of highly-trained clinicians serving individuals, couples, adolescents, and families. The practice specializes in treating anxiety, trauma, OCD, relationship challenges, and life transitions, maintaining a mission to ensure every client feels seen and supported.
"We're incredibly honored to receive this recognition from Colorado Companies to Watch," said D'Agostino-Vigil, Founder and CEO. "This award comes at an especially meaningful time as we prepare to open our new Youth & Family Therapy Center in Westminster." The center, which will expand services for children and teens ages 6–17, will offer play therapy, EMDR therapy, and individual counseling, addressing the growing mental health needs of the community.
As part of Mindfully Behavioral Health, Ignite Counseling Colorado continues to expand access to high-quality behavioral health services throughout the Denver Metro area while preserving its community-centered culture. D'Agostino-Vigil emphasized that the award reflects more than growth: "It's about staying true to who we are while continuing to serve more people. We remain committed to providing exceptional care, supporting our communities, and helping every client build a healthier, more fulfilling life."
The Colorado Companies to Watch program also supports growth-stage organizations through year-round programming and resources, underscoring Ignite Counseling Colorado's role as a leader in the mental health field. The practice's recognition highlights the importance of accessible, evidence-based therapy in addressing the state's mental health challenges.
