My name is Jonathan Irish and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have a wide-ranging amount of professional counseling experience including residential programs for at-risk youth, detention alternate housing for teenagers, community mental health, acute inpatient, intensive outpatient, partial hospitalization, and the outpatient level of care. I grew up in a small town as a pastor's kid and my education after High School has been at Christian institutions of higher education. A Biblical, Christian worldview forms the basis of my life but is not something I include in all my counseling practices.

Has shame kept you in silence? Have circumstances robbed you of your peace? Are you struggling to cope with the stressors in your life? Do you feel like no one understands you or that you don’t fit in? Do you feel alone, overwhelmed, hopeless, angry, worthless, anxious, in constant pain, or out of control? Have you been hurt by people or systems that are supposed to help you? Trauma can shake the very foundation of our sense of well-being, safety, and belonging. And shame can hinder us from living the life we want and deserve. Whatever you find yourself struggling with, you don't need to suffer in silence or walk this journey alone.
