Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed counseling for stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship or family challenges. These difficulties can affect every area of life, including emotional well-being, physical health, work performance, relationships, and overall sense of stability and fulfillment.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to therapy, helping clients understand and address the underlying emotional, psychological, and life experiences that may be contributing to distress. Rather than focusing only on symptom management, therapy works to identify root causes and develop lasting change that supports emotional balance and improved daily functioning.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to help clients process past experiences, reduce emotional reactivity, and build healthier coping patterns. Therapy is designed to support both immediate relief and long-term healing.
Clients often come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or as though stress and anxiety are controlling their lives. Brad’s approach focuses on helping clients regain a sense of control, build resilience, and develop practical tools to manage emotional challenges more effectively. The goal is to shift from feeling managed by stress to feeling grounded, capable, and in control of one’s life.
Therapy is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to each individual’s needs and goals. Brad works with clients to create meaningful, sustainable changes that improve relationships, strengthen emotional well-being, and support a more balanced and fulfilling life.
Healing is possible. With the right support, clients can move beyond chronic stress and emotional overwhelm and build a life characterized by greater clarity, stability, and purpose.
