​Russell Peterson, CMHC

Clinical Mental Health Counselor

We live in the "information age" where there is so much information coming at us that it's common to feel overwhelmed and not know where to start when pursuing personal growth. If that describes you (or your relationships) I can help. Through 25+ years of practice, I've refined a number of ways to help clients identify their roadblocks and move past them toward the goals they want to achieve. I am here to work for you and your success, and my clients have described our time together as positive, fun, and energizing. I don't have an agenda other than to help you get what you came for. Let's work together and build on your dreams.
​
I typically start with a discussion of some of the ways our brains and bodies work to keep us alive. Far from being a boring or technical discussion, most of the time clients say after our first meeting that they understand things in a way they've never seen them before. I'm here to add insight to your life experience to create fantastic solutions!

Some people view others as "broken." I don't. I think that, in general, people do amazing things with the knowledge and circumstances they've been given. And sometimes we learn ways of being early on that don't serve us in the present. When that happens, I'm good at coaching clients into new and even better ways of being. Looking forward to working with you!
