John Bullington is a Limited Licensed Professional Counselor at Kids Creek Family Counseling in Traverse City, Michigan. A U.S. Navy veteran with relief experience during Japan’s 2011 disaster, he brings a spirit of service and resilience to his clinical work. He holds a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Cornerstone Theological Seminary and has a creative background in film and theater. Outside the office, John enjoys photography, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, woodworking, and life in the Grand Traverse Area with his wife and two cats.
Children, teens, and adults need someone who sees and hears them. I support kids, teens, and families facing anxiety, overwhelm, behavior challenges, and transitions. My approach is warm and strength‑based. John draws from person‑centered, narrative, art, and play therapy to meet each client with creativity and empathy.
John understands that life can feel heavy—whether someone is navigating change, wrestling with difficult emotions, or trying to make sense of their story. John offers a space where clients can be themselves, speak freely, and feel supported. Whether it's a teen under pressure or an adult seeking clarity, he walks alongside them with compassion and care.
