Sawyer Nix
Life can be overwhelming, and you don’t have to face it alone. Perhaps you or your child is dealing with irritability, fatigue, anxiety, stress, depression, changes in sleep and appetite, mood changes, or other challenges. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I specialize in helping individuals manage anxiety, stress, depression, and performance issues just to name a few areas. I can provide support and help through evidence-based approaches tailored to your unique needs. Whether you’re struggling or seeking personal growth, my goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and empowered.
First session
The first session explores concerns of the client and the counseling process while increasing comfort level and building rapport. This also includes setting goals and expectations for sessions.
Strengths
I have over 15 years of experience in being able to meet the needs of clients. My goal is to be flexible in providing space to talk and explore or be more structured in skill development. I have specialized experience in working with high level performers and athletes.
Ideal clients
The ideal client is one who is ready to engage and take steps to heal not only within the session but outside of the session as well as they complete "homework." Goals could include better functioning, managing emotions, overcoming obstacles, resolving conflict, pursuing healing, and learning to cope. Concerns may include anxiety, depression, OCD, faith concerns, adjusting to stressors and life changes.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is the lens through which we center on how our thoughts and focus impacts our emotions or feelings and subsequently behaviors. CBT works to identify maladaptive thoughts and behaviors while taking steps to help refocus and manage these thoughts.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
ACT focuses on managing our energy and putting efforts into areas that we can change rather than environments that withdraw energy.
Faith-based therapy
Explore how faith can be a support system to explore healing.
