John Dorris, MA, LCMHCA, NCC
Bio
Does anxiety, depression, or grief hold you back? Do you struggle to find ways of coping with life’s stressors? Have you turned to porn/sex addiction as a way to cope? I am here to listen and work with you to find ways to live a fulfilling life and not be controlled by stress, grief, or addiction. I use a holistic approach incorporating evidenced-based treatments depending on your needs as a client. I primarily begin with a person-centered approach and like to get to know you and your values before determining an appropriate path that may include cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, or family systems therapy.
I am expertly trained in: Anxiety Disorders including OCD, Porn and sex addiction, Grief, Depression, Low self-esteem, Codependency, Challenges with identity, Work and life stress, Family and relationship challenges, Life challenges and transitions (divorce, loss of a job, relationship, loved one passing away, children moving out, retirement etc.), and Spiritual Counseling (By request).
I believe that most issues are developmental and that every individual possesses the strength and potential to work through human problems. I seek to empower my clients to discover this potential and learn skills and strategies that will help them grow and achieve their goals. Please reach out today and we can start that process together.
