Aetna Therapists in Spokane Valley, WA

Life can be very stressful at times. Our moods, anxiety levels, thinking and behaviors can depend on how well we are able to manage these stressors over time. Sometimes, the coping skills we have learned simply are not enough and we feel overwhelmed and out of control. There is a solution to almost every problem. My goal in therapy is to provide a safe environment so that you can learn to better manage your thinking, feeling and behavior and regain control and power in your life.

I am a licensed mental health counselor and certified EMDR clinician. My approach is holistic which views the body, mind and spirit as interconnected. I help people to interact in more authentic ways in order to derive meaning and purpose from life, and to have more positive interactions with others. By examining patterns and habits that keep you stuck, you can increase your options and flexibility in your responses to life.

It takes courage to reach out for help. I consider it my privilege to come alongside my clients as they work towards their goals. I help folks of all ages in navigating life's twists and struggles with relationships and big life transitions. I have experience working with people impacted by anxiety, depression, and trauma, as well as people with ADHD, those on the Autism Spectrum, and members of our LGBTQIA+ community. Whatever is going on in your world – there is a way forward.

The tragic irrationalities of life must sometimes be counterbalanced by an equally irrational commitment to the goodness of Being. Inspired to help others work hard, Bronson believes we can all cultivate a courageous and creative capacity to withstand life’s challenges. Ideally, we can achieve this without becoming corrupt or succumbing to world-weariness, through discovering our own adaptive yet personalized solutions to hardship. While we might not encounter any less tragedy on our road to self-excellency, we can be granted the power to be less overcome by it.

Life is tricky... It's hard and messy and has no one right answer, especially now. Therapy is all about you figuring yourself out without judgment or expectations. Therapy with me, is a bit chaotic and messy too, like life. But trust me, the work is worth it. There is no one right way to "do" therapy or to be a client, but it is about you and what you're willing to bring to the table.

My therapeutic approach to therapy is client-centered, based on the belief that every person brings a unique and formative personal, family, and cultural experience. I have been influenced by Adlerian psychology, with emphasis on the healing power of a therapist-client relationship. I focus on who you are and how you experience yourself, strengths and “growth edges”, past and current relationship experience, and your style of relating, in addition to biological experiences on behavior and the influence of culture/society on you and your concerns.

We are a group of dynamic therapists, in multiple Washington state locations. Our goal was to create a place for you to settle in and tell your story. Everybody has one, and we want to hear yours. Counseling is a process that encourages you to examine your choices, your thoughts, your dreams, your barriers and your pain in an effort to create the positive change you are seeking in your life. We believe that successful counseling is a collaborative experience between you and your therapist; that finding the right fit is vital to that success.

I believe sometimes all we need is for someone to listen to us without judging to help find answers. In my office, the client is completely involved in determining the course of therapy. You can expect an initial session to be of gathering personal history, health history, and family of origin history. We will work together to see if we can begin to identify the problem and what you might want to do about the problem. We try to establish how we will know when this has been accomplished, how often to meet, as well as any arrangements for payment.

I have spent 25 years helping people move from what I call "Surviving to Thriving".
