From Surviving to Thriving
Imagine feeling in control of your life again. You feel calm, focused and relaxed. You have the strategies and tools necessary to keep your stress in check and you’re making strides toward living the life you desire. Maybe something unexpected recently happened in your life and you're not sure how to navigate through. Maybe your mind is racing all the time, making it difficult for you to focus and accomplish your goals. Maybe your relationships have suffered because of this. Maybe you just feel stuck and need someone to help guide you through this phase of your life. Regardless of your current struggles, we can help.

Our goal is to help clients develop new skills and insights to improve the quality of their lives, relationships, and careers and move from simply surviving to thriving. In addition to highly-tuned intuition, we integrate action-oriented strategies to increase insight and awareness into what isn’t working, which opens the doors for lasting change. We understand no two people are alike, so we don’t adhere to a “one-size-fits-all” model. Our tailored approach is simple: implement a straightforward, no-nonsense model using evidence-based, solution-focused strategies for fast, effective, long-lasting results.
Education/Training
Master's of Science in Community Mental Health Counseling
Bio
Maybe something unexpected recently happened in your life and it’s thrown you for a loop. You’re not quite sure how to navigate through.

Perhaps your mind is racing all the time, making it difficult for you to focus and accomplish your goals.

Possibly your relationships are suffering because of this.

Or maybe you simply just feel stuck and need someone to help guide you through this challenging phase of your life.

I started Arcadian Counseling because I wanted to build something different. I wanted to create a practice that reflects my unique background and diverse set of skills. Prior to becoming a therapist, I spent 12 years in the corporate world. I enjoyed many of the challenges of corporate life, but it was never as rewarding as having someone look me in the eye, with tears of joy in theirs, and thank me for helping them change their life.

Choosing the right therapist to help guide you through this moment in your life is an important decision.

My goal is to help clients develop new skills and insights to improve the quality of their lives, relationships, and careers and move from simply surviving to thriving.

My clients are typically high-functioning, motivated, and committed to making changes in their lives. They value their time and as such, my approach is to implement a straightforward model for fast, effective results.

In addition to my highly-tuned intuition, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral and Mindfulness techniques into my work. These highly effective methods help to increase insight and awareness into what isn’t working, which opens the doors for change.

Clients have described their experience with me as refreshingly honest and authentic, compassionate, focused and purpose-driven. I’m often told by clients, “This isn’t what I expected – but in a good way.”

It's my pleasure to recommend James Killian.It was a few years ago that I first met James at a community network event for therapist and counselors. I invited him to a parent support group meeting that I facilitate for the follow week , he's been coming ever since. James is an asset for our group as he offers valuable insight and feedback which include effective coping strategies and communication skills. Volunteering his time is much appreciated ! James is an excellent referral source for me and the counseling department . Gary Lindgren
