River Barry, Clinical Mental Health Counselor

My clients describe me as:

Personable, inviting, and when you're ready will challenge you towards growth. I send you home with notes on session content and/or optional homework

Something to know about my approach is:

I like to think outside the box in order to find different ways to engage with session content both in and out of session. To do so I use alternative forms of processing such as art prompts, writing prompts, mindfulness skills, and practicing skills

Together, we will:

We'll create insight from aversive experiences you've faced in the past. You'll learn more about yourself and how things came to be for you. You'll fine tune your desires, identify barriers, and work towards living the life you want for yourself

I specialize in working with people who:

Need guidance navigating challenges with anxiety, depression, and trauma. I create safe space for outdoor adventure sport needs, LGBTQIA+, and alternative lifestyles.

I became a therapist because:

I love people with a passion. I get excited about meeting new people, learning about their story, and being a support to them throughout their journey

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

I offer telehealth sessions and outdoor sessions, when weather permits

More about me and my practice:

The goal is to work towards being the best version of you. We'll gain insight into the origin of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors; explore new ways of being; and work towards integrating new ways of being into a life that serves you best
