My goal is to assist my clients through a collaborative relationship that helps promotes healing to better navigate the difficulties in life.
Clients frequently come to me suffering from traumatic experiences from their past that they can not seem to move past. You may be experiencing anxiety, panic attacks, despair, low self-esteem, intrusive thoughts or memories and you don’t know how to help yourself. I would like to help you heal from those difficulties in life. I specialize in PTSD and trauma which I describe as “things from your past that still affect your present”, as well as grief, anxiety and phobias. I’ve been helping people heal from trauma for more than 15 years and offer more than one method to address the symptoms of trauma, anxiety and grief.

If you are struggling with a depressed and/or anxious mood or have experienced a loss, counseling can help you experience a more hopeful and purposeful life. Clients with a background of trauma, grief/loss, mood disorder, or feel stuck during a time of transition and stress say that through therapy they have regained their emotional balance and find the strength to make important changes. Counseling involves digging deep, learning new ways of thinking, challenging old behaviors, and being courageous enough to believe that you can improve and grow no matter where you are in your life journey.

I specialize in motivation and purpose in life.
Have you discovered that you are lacking in motivation? Confused or completely lost when it comes to your own personal purpose in life? The number one symptom I have noticed in the past few years is that people lack motivation and purpose. That might be because of trauma, grief, personal issues, or any number of events and relationships. The goal of therapy with my clients is to increase awareness, renew motivation, and rediscover purpose that aims at a better, more authentic future.

I believe healing can empower you to turn your pain into your passion to fulfill your purpose in life.
Immediate availability this week - Life stressors and painful experiences can be debilitating for children, teens and young adults. The constant feeling of impending doom and being paralyzed by fear can be crippling after traumatic experiences, as well as grief and loss, often leading to seasons of anxiety and/or depression. This dark cloud in the back of your head can foster feelings of low self-esteem, impair judgement leading to poor choices and destructive behavior, cause self-doubt and distorted self-image, inhibit academic and employment goals and disrupt relationships.

Hello! I'm Aaron Hunt. What are your roots planted in (your past, family and other important relationships, trauma, addictions, habits and other patterns)? Your roots direct where your energy and attention flows. Where is your attention focusing energy in your life? Are you creating the life you want with open-handed acceptance or is your energy being spent fearfully trying to resist and avoid a life you don't want? If you're exhausted trying to find solutions with your head, maybe it's time to give attention to what you're feeling inside instead of doing things to run from it.

I view persons as made up of emotions, thoughts, relationships, biology, and our spiritual selves. Consequently, I first help you stabilize by making necessary changes in behavior. Medical or neurological contributions and possible nutritional deficiencies are examined. I address any distorted thinking that is contributing to your emotional pain. If systems in your life (family, work, school) are a factor, they are also addressed. Finally, we work with the larger questions of existence (spiritual issues, issues of purpose/ meaning), which are all vital to mental health. All areas are dealt with from a solid grounding in scientific literature and research.

What can I expect from life coaching?

Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.

Can a life coach help treat anxiety?

Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.

Can life coaching be done online?

Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.

How long does life coaching last?

Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
