About Brandon

Brandon Woffinden is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, mood struggles, grief, addiction, and intimacy-related issues. He recognizes how hard it can be to ask for help and offers steady, practical support for people taking that first step. Brandon writes plainly and meets people where they are. He draws on ten years of counseling experience and practical life experience from a prior career in law enforcement. Brandon uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to address thoughts, habits, and emotional regulation. He also incorporates mindfulness, meditation, emotional freedom techniques, deep breathing, and cognitive reframing when helpful. Sessions focus on clear goals and skills you can use between meetings. Brandon often helps people work through trauma, PTSD symptoms, grief and loss, first responder resilience, depression, and challenges linked to ADHD or relationship strain. He pays attention to spiritual concerns when clients want to include them in work together. Brandon trained at the University of Phoenix and holds a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. He practices in Utah and carries ten years of professional experience. His approach mixes practical skill-building with a respectful, person-centered attitude. If you want to try a shorter visit first, sessions are offered in 30-minute increments on his scheduling page.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's needs. It emphasizes the client's perspective and supports people in finding their own answers, which can help with self-esteem and life decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches tools for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce anxiety, depression, and problematic habits.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improved communication. It is useful for strong emotions, impulsive behavior, and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a client's goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying different techniques and adjusting the plan over time.

Confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, cut down on travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand them. It can also let people use practices like mindfulness and breathing exercises in the moment where they live and work. Ask about available formats when you schedule so sessions match your daily routine.
