I have practiced psychotherapy with individuals, couples and families since 1985. My practice consists of a rich diversity of people from all walks of life. It is my privilege to be in a "people-helping" profession and to see the resourcefulness of the human spirit in working through the brokenness of life on the way to wholeness.

At times, we all get stuck. Sometimes we worry, sometimes we don't see a way out, and sometimes we feel distant from or in conflict with the ones we love. There is a way through this, but it isn't always obvious. I can help. As a therapist, my job is to help you move beyond these difficult experiences and to re-engage with your most cherished aspirations, values and hopes.

My clients should expect that the majority of their "work" will be outside of the office through homework, exposure and task completion. My clients will benefit from initial sessions that are focused on insight development and understanding the "why" of their current emotional dysregulation . Unmet needs, patterns of behavior and most importantly patterns of thought will be identified. Clients will then spend time utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) strategies and interventions. Clients will experience therapy that will prioritize and embrace behavioral activation as the vehicle of change. Expect feedback and support!

Living your best life starts with finding and using the tools you need to build awareness, healthy habits, and a positive outlook. My name is Sean Mitchell, and I look forward to working with you, and embarking on a journey to wellness together. My approach to counseling is based on a humanistic approach that emphasizes the importance of being one's true self in order to lead the most fulfilling life. We all have our own unique ways of looking at the world and this approach involves a core belief that people are good at heart, capable of making the right choices in life and can work towards developing their full potential.

At present, my practice is limited to men and women in the law enforcement community and their families.

Would you like to feel more calm, confident, hopeful, and energetic? Are you facing roadblocks or transitions in your relationships or family life? Would you like to become more effective at getting your needs met through self-compassion rather than self-criticism?

I believe in the basic goodness of all humans, no exceptions.  I am honored to sit with couples as they build their trust, & strengthen their love, commitment & true understanding of how ‘to be with each other’. I get to see soft, smiling eyes increasingly shared & I love when a couple says their children are noticing.  I like to say, ‘we are healing the planet, one couple at a time’.  My work is inspired by my connection with my husband Steven, by neuroscience, mindfulness, and body centered work.  The body does not lie but we must learn its language.  The mind, in the service of protection, will hide certain truths from us.

I have been in the healing profession for 30+ years. Through my work as an energy psychotherapist over the past decade, I have witnessed dramatic changes in my clients lives. I use a variety of healing modalities, coupled with a traditional therapeutic approach. In my experience, energy work alone will often relieve or eliminate emotional or physical symptoms. Combining this with therapy provides us with an understanding of why we act in destructive ways, the opportunity to re-evaluate those decisions and provide tools necessary to break free from old, limiting beliefs. The desired outcome is to create positive lasting change.

I love to collaborate with clients to assist them in having deeper, more meaningful relationships with both themselves and others. During my 20+ years of practice, my clients have told me that what they have valued the most about my style is my ability to be frank, humorous, warm and approachable. Good therapy is not just talking, its about taking action in your day to day life. I love to teach practical, everyday skills to elicit rapid change. Working with me will be like taking a class in YOU.

I am currently doing telehealth appointments and office appointments. Are you or your child suffering from worry, sadness, or other concerns that you don't know how to deal with? Sometimes you just need a counselor in order to explore where these concerns are coming from and develop new ways to cope, handle or think about situations differently. I counsel adults, adolescents, and children ages 10-12 years old around a variety of concerns.
