Consider this - You are not required to set yourself on fire to keep other people warm. Have you been keeping others warm for far too long at the expense of yourself? Is it finally time to put YOU first? Whether you are struggling with things that have happened in your past, seek to have more fulfilling and lasting relationships, or simply just want to feel better than you did yesterday, I would be honored to walk beside you. I like to think of going to therapy as a scheduled time in your week to invest in yourself – it doesn’t mean that something is wrong with you. Rather, coming to therapy means something is RIGHT with you.

At times symptoms from anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder and depression that follows, can hinder our ability from living the life we want, especially when feeling vulnerable and misunderstood. This affects our relationships, parenting, friendships, marriages, career, social life, and living out our fullest potential. If your struggling with a thought life that leans more on the negative side and doesn't line up with who you are or who you want to be, I can help.

As your therapist, my goal will be to build a trusting relationship that allows you to feel safe, heard, seen, and valued so that you have the confidence to take steps towards your individual and relational growth. We will work together to identify the barriers that have left you feeling stuck and disconnected from yourself and others, and seek to create avenues for healthy and fulfilling relationships.

Hi im Greg Kirkham! Im a licensed therapist, practicing for over 20 years. I specialize in treating trauma. Now, you may be saying “but I don’t have trauma!” Trauma comes in all shapes and sizes and is often not recognized as such, but almost always has a significant impact on someone’s overall mental, physical and emotional health. Trauma also presents in many different forms, including struggles with depression, anxiety and anger management. Over my career I have worked with an array of populations, including children/families, juvenile sex offenders, and even convicts.

With a Certificate in Complex Trauma and Dissociation as well as additional training in sex therapy I am prepared to build relationships with clients who have experienced various traumatic events, whether that be a car accident or sexual abuse.
"There is nothing wrong with you. There is something wrong with what happened to you." The ways we are treated by others can convince us that there is something inherently wrong with who we are. Trauma and negative life experiences teach us what to believe about ourselves and the world around us, but sometimes they inform us inaccurately. Whether you've experienced abuse, difficult relationships, loss, or grief, I would love the opportunity to join you as you rediscover who you are and walk into healing and wholeness.

Additionally, I have specialized training in trauma treatment, including single episodic trauma as well as prolonged exposure to trauma resulting from emotional, physical, and sexual abuse.
I believe that genuine growth occurs within the context of a safe, nurturing, and at times gently challenging relationship. I desire to integrate issues of mind and body while helping individuals access their resiliency that resides within. I describe my therapeutic style as collaborative and relational, believing that we all grow best in community and in relationship with others. Ultimately, I hope to cultivate an atmosphere where clients feel accepted both for their strengths and areas of growth.

Additionally, I have specialized training in trauma treatment for emotional, physical, and sexual abuse.
I'm a firm believer that we were never intended to do life alone, and that everyone has a story worth telling. But, so often shame, guilt or embarrassment, silences us, and our stories go untold. Oftentimes, robbing us of living life fully. It is my desire to foster an environment where clients feel safe and accepted as they pursue healing and growth. I'm humbled and honored to walk alongside of my clients during some of their most difficult times. My therapeutic approach is collaborative, relational, and empowering. I focus my practice on serving young children, adults of all ages, and families.

You have the answers within you and I am here to help you find them. My approach to therapy is rooted in a relational and embodied perspective. Here we can gain an understanding by observing how you interact with the world and engage with the wisdom of your body. Therapy offers a gentle and steady presence as we explore current patterns and look to the past to understand and empathize with what shaped you into who you are today. I aim to enhance self-awareness, identify values, challenge growth, and create deeper levels of self-compassion within a nurturing environment.

My clients come from various walks of life from very young (18 months) to very mature (90 years +). They bring with them concerns relating to past, present, and even anticipated future experiences. They learn skills with which they are able to more effectively deal with challenges that are interfering with their ability to effectively engage in daily life, with the ultimate goal of moving on with their lives beyond me.

As a counselor, I believe that no person is beyond helping, regardless of prior therapy experience, life history, or their current situation. I provide a safe and welcoming environment in which people are able to talk without fear of judgment, and can feel heard and validated. I believe in treating the roots of the issues, rather than providing Band-Aids for symptoms, and am passionate about empowering individuals to recognize their own strengths and abilities. I provide therapy from an interpersonal perspective, in which I believe relationship is the catalyst for healing.

Therapy is a place of self-discovery where unique strengths can be uncovered and where self-compassion can be learned to support you during a difficult season. I offer a solid and steady presence in the midst of a chaotic time- a place for the lonely, afraid, overwhelmed and misunderstood to be heard. My approach to therapy is rooted in a systems and relational perspective, which means looking at life history and context to evaluate the impact current and past relationships have on functioning. I also use mindfulness skills and Brainspotting to aid in coping and increase functioning.
