My theoretical background is CBT but I am an eclectic provider and will use modalities that are client centered and will help clients improve or decrease distressing symptoms. I have used CBT with clients who have anxiety, depression, and addiction issues to name a few. I help the client to identify behavioral patterns and their irrational thoughts to help them move towards desiring change and taking actions to change.

Aspen is a great fit for me because they strike a wonderful balance of being analytical yet warm. If you actualy want to get the most out of your therapy and not just waste your time I highly recomend them.

My partner and I have had a few sessions with Aspen now and we really have seen so much progress from just those few sessions in such a short amount of time. Aspen is direct and authentic and really holds a safe space for us to work through very vulnerable topics but also holds us accountable and challenges us on what we both need to work on. They also positively reinforce both our individual and collaborative strengths, making us feel empowered and seen.

I went in to see if I need help in any area ,Just striving to be the best I can be , or at least be aware if I’m delusional . I needed an expert opinion about my life . Raw and direct. I didn’t know what to expect but I received exactly what I needed. Thanks Aspen Burnett, For caring.
