I believe it is possible to experience peace in any of life’s circumstances. One thing that comes between us and this peace, however, is our thoughts - without intentional direction for our thoughts, we tend to fixate on our fears, anxieties, and doubts. When this happens, we turn inward and lose connection with what we believe in and the people around us. As your counselor, I aim to guide you to a deeper understanding and validation of your current experience while empowering you to refocus your attention on what is true and life-giving, reestablishing a calming connection with your values, beliefs, and loved ones.

Welcome to Jaeden Roberts Counseling & Alternative Therapies. I work with adults and children, providing individual & family sessions, as well as teaching classes.

Looking for help and support for yourself or someone you care very much about? Whether you are trying to recover from something difficult, are trying to improve your relationships with others, or improve your mental health, it takes courage to seek help or to make a change. My goal as a therapist is to help others discover their strengths, as well as learn new skills to help overcome life's obstacles. I can assist in building a toolbox of healthy coping skills for successful emotional regulation and help develop insight and awareness needed to grow and find peace.

As a therapist, I am committed to individual and collective healing, operating from the belief that people change in the presence of other people. This is what makes the therapeutic experience so transformative – the relational work of therapy provides a new context where, together with a safe other, you can seek to understand and unlearn old patterns that no longer serve you, while learning to navigate through your inner and outer world with more courage and comfort. I work to create shared experiences based in curiosity and safety, speaking to the parts of you and your story that may feel stuck or alone.

The seasons of life can feel impossible to navigate alone. Sometimes it’s a lost feeling of disconnection from ourselves. Other times maybe it’s the grief of losing someone we love. Or perhaps it’s a relationship that fuels anxiety or distress. Whatever the reason, counseling is a space for us to explore and discover the tools you need to connect, heal, and grow in new ways. My framework in our work together is grounded in attachment science and the belief that connection to self and other is a basic tenant of human wellness. While leaning in can be terrifying, I'll be there every step of the way.

We cannot remove painful memories but I believe that we can decrease the control they have over our lives and come to a place where the pain is not as intense. I believe struggles come from avoidance. When we avoid things like negative emotions or traumatic times in our lives they won't go away, instead, they grow and fester until at some point, they become overwhelming, uncontrollable, or show up in other areas of our lives. The more they grow, the more uncomfortable or scary they are to address, so we avoid them even more until it becomes an unending and ever-growing cycle.
