*Currently has a waitlist* Having questions or concerns regarding learning or behavioral challenges for your child or teen can be intimidating.

Through working with people from all walks of life, I have seen trauma's life-altering impact.

Whatever your experience with trauma has been, and however this may be affecting you now, there is help and hope available for you.

My ideal client is experiencing depression, anxiety, recent life changes, PTSD, and/or complex trauma. I believe in creating an empathetic connection with you and treating you as an individual, as your issues are complex and unique to you and your experience.

Greetings! My name is Aaron, and I sincerely appreciate your time in exploring my services. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, my expertise lies in supporting children , teenagers, adults, and families for over a decade in enhancing their life quality, addressing complex concerns, and transcending traumas that hinder their well-being.

Are you ready to connect with a counselor who can assist you with what you need? Are you looking to be understood while sorting through life difficulties you or your family are facing? I work with children , families, adults and couples who are working through grief, trauma, depression, anxiety, life transitions and conflict.

The decision to start therapy can be an intimidating one. It is my job to make that a little easier. I specialize in working with children , adolescents, and young adults, and strive to create a safe, welcoming environment for anyone I meet. I incorporate multiple approaches, and bring more than ten years of experience to the table. I want to partner with my clients to improve their lives and help them reach their full potential.

I am a licensed professional counselor that specializes in working with children with emotional and behavioral issues including those who come from hard places and have experienced various types of trauma.

Being an adoptive father I have a particular heart for adoption and foster care.

At All Seasons Counseling, you will have the opportunity to experience a calm, comfortable, & safe space no matter what season of life you are in. With over 17 years of experience within the mental health field, I strive to provide an opportunity for children , teens, adults, & families to encounter vulnerability, authenticity, & compassion.

I coordinate w/ schools, medical teams, etc also.

Currently accepting new clients! If your child or teen is going through a difficult season or needs help managing big emotions, it helps to have a therapist partner with you to find ways to support them. Traditional talk therapy can be difficult for young children because their capacity for verbal processing is limited. I use expressive modalities including play therapy, art, and sand tray to connect with children and teens where they are and to help them process emotions and develop effective coping skills. I am also a registered Circle of Security Parenting facilitator and can provide classes in the Knoxville, Tennessee area.

Telehealth services only: I work with clients that are motivated for change. I work with adults, teens, and kids. Relationships can be very stressful and overwhelming as today we do not have a village to help us and many people lack supports. My goal is to help you either as an individual or as a family move into a place of healing. Together we can explore unresolved trauma, communication patterns, conflict, emotions, all of it within the safety of a therapeutic relationship.

Why go to therapy? We all are allowed to have a crisis, but shouldn't do it at the same time. Therapy can be an incredible tool to help guide us in any stage of life. An experience designed around your individual needs, as healing comes in many forms. As a therapist, I seek to create an open and trusting space for you to be heard, to better understand yourself and to develop strategies that help you to navigate life with a healthy mindset. The therapeutic strategies that I use are guided by a trauma informed lens that allows for the use of many different potential interventions and determined by your personal needs and preferences.

I enjoy working with children and families who are struggling to understand each other and get along. A lack of communication and an inability to express feelings appropriately are often the main issues in these relationships. I work with not only the children /teens to increase their abilities in these areas, I also work with the parents and siblings to help them understand how they can help the relationship be less turbulent.
