Similar to physical health, improving our mental health is hard and de manding work.
If you’ve made the decision to find a therapist, you’ve taken a courageous step toward personal growth and feeling better. How often do you relate to yourself from a place of harsh judgment, anger, and shame, being pulled in multiple directions by conflicting feelings and self-beliefs? We are physical, mental, and social beings who have tremendous resilience, strength, and wisdom within us. We all seek meaningful connections with others and with the world around us, though we may have lost that sense of meaningful connection for a while, perhaps for a very long while.

There are generally two types of therapy. In the first type, the therapist tries to help distract you from your irrational feelings, desires, or thoughts. In the second type, the therapist recognizes that you didn't always have these issues and that they arose at specific times in your past. The aim is to trace your present problems back to their past roots and pull out the weed. Intuitive people often have a sense for how they haven't been the same since a bad break up, an accident, a social humiliation, the death of a loved one, or since they made a bad decision.

I use a hu manistic, person-centered approach rooted in mindfulness and informed by IFS.
My approach to counseling starts with the belief that within each individual there exists a profound, intrinsic capacity for self-healing — a deep inner knowing. Similar to the way the body heals itself when cut or a bone is fractured, I believe the hu man psyche also comes equipped with an innate capacity for self-healing. The trick is learning how to slow down and quiet the mind enough to hear what the inner healer has to say. Hi, I’m Kit Freed man — a counselor in private practice located in Laramie, WY.

As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT), I have a heart for working with adults seeking recovery from sex and porn addiction. Notably, porn addiction has accelerated over the last 20 years because of the Internet. Typically, sex and porn addicts also experience compulsivity regarding drug and alcohol use. Fundamentally, people use sex or drugs to medicate against anxiety and depression resulting from traumas.

Originally from California, J.R. studied biology and philosophy at Berkeley. Shortly thereafter, he retired to the Jackson community where he has been in service (and skiing) ever since. More recently, J.R. witnessed a rather miraculous healing of a family member that made him curious about just what mental health means, and about the variety of ways available to us to enhance it. He took that curiosity to Adams State University where he received his MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.

Hi, I'm Greg Stelzner, LCSW, I've been practicing therapy for 10 years and have competency in treating many problem areas. Areas that I have come to specialize in are Chronic Pain, Trauma, Depressive and Anxiety disorders. Like many mental health struggles these tend to lead to a feeling of being stuck, a loss of quality of life, joy, vitality, etc, and one wonders if there is hope of recovery. Finding a quality, friendly and competent therapist is very helpful in unlocking the problem and healing. I strive to be this person for all my clients.

For many, reaching out for help can be the hardest part of making change.
As hu mans, we are always changing. I specialize in working with adolescents, adults, and couples who are ready to take charge of their own change; those who want to ensure that they are getting closer to the best version of themselves. Too often, we feel that the world has taken control over us, and our story is being written for us. However, I do not believe that this has to be the case; you CAN take back your life, and I am excited to partner with you on that journey!

Male Therapists
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
