Hey, I’m Braden Norton. I primarily work with adults and older teens navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, LGBTQ+ issues, grief, identity exploration, life transitions, anger, and more. I connect especially well with those wanting a collaborative, down-to-earth approach. My style blends clinical insight with lived experience offering practical tools, genuine support, and a holistic view that focuses on every aspect of a persons life to find balance in taking care of their physical, social, and emotional needs. Together, we’ll focus on building meaningful, sustainable change that aligns with who you are and what matters to you.
I draw from a blend of evidence-based approaches, tailoring each session to fit the individual. I also don’t just teach these strategies, I use them in my own life. From mindfulness to stress management and habit-building, I’ve leaned on these tools personally, which allows me to show up with empathy and grounded, real-world insight.
Growing up playing team sports taught me the value of working together and trusting others to achieve a shared goal. I bring that same mindset to therapy, showing up as a supportive teammate as you work through challenges and move toward growth. If it sounds like I might be a good fit for you, please reach out to me. I look forward to working with you soon!
