My approach draws from a variety of behavioral treatments supported by science, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy ( ACT).
My goal for each of my clients is to help them build and sustain a life they want to live. This can seem like a daunting task, especially for the many of us who have struggled to make long-lasting changes in our mental health. As a clinical psychologist, I strive to help clients foster awareness of the underlying thoughts and behaviors that drive emotional suffering, and to help clients build a diverse repertoire of evidence-based skills for taking back control of these experiences.

My approach is drawn from several disciplines: cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance of commitment, family systems, solution-focused, attachment theory, and others.
Hi! My name is Heidi Hust, MSW, LICSW, LW60912071, and I have worked in the mental health and crisis management field for over 10 years serving individuals, couples, adolescents, and children. When I am not practicing therapy, I am likely to be planning a family event, camping, fishing, or spending quality time with my family and friends.

I view my work through an integrated approach of person-centered, emotion-focused, and acceptance and commitment lens – meaning our time together will be spent focusing on your values, self-discovery, emotional awareness, mindfulness, exploration of your past and present behaviors, and your commitment towards meaningful change in your life.
Welcome! I have experience with anxiety, perfectionistic tendencies, trauma, relationship issues, and balancing mental and physical health. My philosophy is that internal growth is an essential part of personal development, especially when grappling with mental health struggles. You can navigate through your challenges more effectively by fostering self-awareness, emotional regulation, resilience, self-compassion, and relationship-building. Improving your mental well-being enriches your overall life experience, transforming struggles into opportunities for profound personal development.

My approach includes: Psychodynamic, Family Systems, Humanistic, Internal Family Systems, Emotion Focused, Narrative, CBT, DBT, Acceptance and Commitment therapy, Existentialism, Secular Buddhism, and Feminism.
Are you wishing for better relationships? Feeling anxious, down, lost, or wondering about the meaning of life? Would you like to feel more confident? Hoping to heal after trauma? Going through loss or life transition? We need lots of self-compassion so we can heal and find a better approach to our lives and relationships. I offer a non-judgmental space to be open about your struggles and explore what it means to live in your values. It is through our common humanity that I relate to my clients. I believe the struggles we face also occur in the systems of race, class, gender, sexuality, age, ability, religion, and national identity.

I also have training in and utilize components of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Exposure Therapy as I believe counseling should be tailored to fit the specific needs and goals of the client.
My approach to therapy is person-centered, holistic, and strengths-based. I believe clients are the experts of their own stories, and my role as a therapist is to create a safe space for individuals to explore intersecting aspects of their identities. Therapy is not about asking “what’s wrong” and instead about building upon existing client strengths in order to create a meaningful and rich life. My toolbox consists of a variety of counseling modalities. I am certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dreamwork and Dream Arts Therapy.

Through a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), acceptance and commitment therapy ( ACT), and mindfulness techniques, we will work together to overcome anxiety and OCD.
I specialize in delivering evidence-based treatment for anxiety disorders. The science is clear on what therapy works best for these issues, yet often clients who need it most never access the right type of care. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) treatment is considered the gold standard, and while many providers implement various CBT tools and techniques, they are not incorporated in a structured way as the research indicates. With over a decade of experience and thousands of hours delivering CBT treatments, I have cultivated a profound understanding on how to help folks with these issues.

Every journey is unique. My person-centered, culturally conscious, approach to therapy aims to honor every individual’s personal path that leads them to today.

I offer a holistic approach to therapy that leans into clients' strengths and creativity to set goals and enhance individual abilities and 'tool kits' to cope with struggles and explore new paths and potential solutions.

Since then I have had training in ACT, PTSD treatments, working with gender diverse youth/ individuals, CBT and DBT.
What’s up! My name is Jon Davis, and I specialize in working with high school/college students & young adults. I work best with people who are looking to develop ways of breaking negative patterns & find ways to cope in the present day. It’s really easy to get stuck within a loop, or have things change around you and what was working isn’t anymore. I like to work with people around breaking the cycle, and finding effective actions to adapt to the present day. My areas of focus are stress & anxiety management, breaking the depression/burnout cycle, distress tolerance, and finding ways to keep swimming through a chaotic era.

to reframe cognitive narratives creates more space to have agency in how we act, react, and feel about ourselves.

I work from a person centered approach and utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy ( ACT), and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy.
Life presents many challenges, and with busy schedules, people often forget to take care of themselves and attend to their needs. Lacking the necessary support to overcome these challenges can leave individuals feeling lost, depressed, anxious, angry, and stuck. It is important to recognize that everyone is worthy of happiness and deserves to feel fulfilled in their relationships.
