About Brandon

He offers straightforward support for relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, career transitions, mood conditions like depression and bipolar disorder, and challenges such as ADHD and compassion fatigue. Brandon holds a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor credential and practices in Utah.
Brandon draws on ten years of professional experience to tailor sessions to each person.
How Brandon works
He blends practical tools such as mindfulness, meditation, deep breathing, and cognitive reframing with talking therapy. Sessions focus on what a person wants to change and on small steps that build forward momentum. He commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and client-centered approaches to guide sessions.
Hypnotherapy and existential ideas are also available when they match a person’s goals. Brandon chooses methods based on what helps a person feel understood and able to act differently. In early work he spent a decade in law enforcement and later completed a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Phoenix.
That mix of backgrounds informs a practical, grounded style and an emphasis on resilience. People can expect clear, direct conversation and exercises to practice between sessions. Brandon aims to help clients find meaning, reduce overwhelm, and build daily routines that support emotional stability.
He welcomes questions about how therapy would work for an individual situation.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Options
Brandon commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in online sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through simple exercises and homework, and it often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical behavior therapy teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills in step-by-step practice, which can assist people experiencing intense emotions or relationship struggles.He also works from a client-centered perspective that emphasizes listening and building understanding first. That approach helps people set their own goals and move at their own pace. Together the therapist and client decide which combination of methods best matches goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities.
Online therapy here is offered by licensed professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people meet face-to-face when bandwidth allows, phone sessions can fit a walk or a short work break, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make scheduling more flexible and let people keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel.
