Hello, my name is Braden, I am a licensed professional counselor with experience serving individuals, couples, and families. I’ve practiced in different types of community settings: like schools, universities, hospitals, and outpatient clinics, where I have worked with people of all ages and in all phases of life. We all know that life can be challenging, and the stress can take a physical toll. I am prepared to meet you where you are in life and help with variety of issues. Keeping up the façade of perfection is exhausting and makes you feel like your life is out of control. I offer a supportive, non-judgmental, and compassionate therapeutic relationship to those who want to create change in their life. I specialize in working with issues of anxiety, depression, trauma/abuse, and grief/loss.
I approach counseling in a supportive and sociable way. I believe that the relationship you have with your counselor is 99% of the “magic” to get your life back on track. Clinically, I use acceptance and commitment therapy, solution focused approaches, and mindfulness practice. Better said, my approach is to gear you to look at the issues holistically and truthfully, let go of what you can to feel secure and confident again. My tools to treat you are sensitivity, humor, respect, and warmth.
I look forward to working with you and wish you all the best.
