John Kauffroth, LPC

It's always an honor to create the space to sort through things. Therapy is a hallowed meeting ground where we get to observe things about ourselves, and see who we are and how we show up - through a blend of curiosity, and clarity and self-compassion. But the secret sauce is self-compassion.

Maybe you’re hitting up against some loneliness and isolation right now. Or maybe some old burdens are affecting your current life. Lets talk. I don't have any platitudes about positive thinking, but your story matters to me. The thing is, I really enjoy helping people cultivate resilience and self- compassion. Depression, Anxiety, Anger Issues, Porn Addiction, Chronic Pain, all these are adversities that we humans grapple with. I've been doing this for a minute. I can say for sure that there is no cookie-cutter solution. It's more about connection. My focus is to create the space for someone to know they aren’t alone in this.

A gentle, trauma informed journey into mindfulness ensues, and flows towards specific therapy concepts that work best for the individual. We go with what resonates. I enjoy drawing from IFS, Narrative, CBT, and Client Centered therapies to name a few. These paths can be informed by specific Ted Talks/Podcasts to augment the learning part of our work.
I love the metaphor of life being a winding path. Most of us have internal burdens we're carrying along the way. Unpacking and processing some of those with a neutral and supportive confidant, one who has earned your trust, can be immensely healing. So if you wanna share the trail for a while, I'd be honored. Either way, I wish you the best on your journey.
