My Approach as a Counselor

I believe in creating a space where you feel truly heard, understood, and celebrated – never judged. Through our work together, we'll build a relationship that allows us to explore your strengths, needs, and goals at a pace that feels right for you. I help inspire confidence and support you in living life on your own terms through a variety of approaches, including motivational interviewing.

My experience, both personally and professionally, has shaped my expertise in supporting people through mental health crises, depression, grief, and anxiety. I bring particular sensitivity to working with racial, sexual, and gender identity-related trauma, as well as substance use challenges. My goal is to make our sessions feel like a respite – a place where you can breathe, be yourself, and work toward meaningful change.

Aaron serves as Calmed Counseling's Director of Clinician Experience in promotion of our counselor's well-being, professional development, case consultation and supportive culture.
