About Brandon Woffinden

Hello, thank you for taking the time to view my profile! I appreciate the opportunity to get to know you! I have a passion for supporting and helping others and I want to let you know I honor your decision to seek help. I know this can be a scary experience but I want you to know that I will support you 100 percent. I believe the strongest people in the world are those brave enough to ask for help when they need it.

I received my masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Phoenix in 2012. The previous 10 years were spent in Law Enforcement. The modalities I use most are cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT). I utilize interventions from all schools of therapy depending on client need. Mindfulness, meditation, emotional freedom techniques, deep breathing and cognitive reframing are some of the tools I use to help my clients. I have a passion for working with people to discover their own personal spiritual path. I have experience working with individuals with anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief and loss and first responder resiliency. Again, I would like to thank you for reviewing my profile. I look forward to working with you.

If you like you can o to my scheduling page and book a session. they are in 30 minute increments.

“Brandon is a kind and understanding therapist. He offers simple and tested tools to help with emotional regulation and self confidence.”

“After my first session I was calmer (My girlfriend says thank you) and I'm more centered. He's very compassionate and has great tools for my toolbox.”

“My son has only seen Brandon a few times so far. But he absolutely loves him and feels so comfortable already. He hasn't had an episode since he started therapy with Brandon.”

“Have only had 2 sessions with him but so far both experiences have been wonderful.”

“I gravitated to Betterhelp because of the accessibility and affordability (and because my insurance seemed a scam and a pain in the ass). I've only had one session with my therapist, Brandon Woffinden, so far, but I experienced immediate relief and optimism. I really like Brandon. He offered me plenty of tools and shared his amazing website--which is a free resource for all kinds of mental health and well-being exercises and research. I look forward to my next session and I am already trying to enact some of the tools I was presented with. Go me! Keep it up! Get ready and handle it better when that swing comes my way again.”

“So thankful for Brandon. He is great at listening and gave me so many resources and tools for me to use in between sessions. I feel comfortable being vulnerable and discussing my feelings without judgement.”

“I have had a few sessions with Brandon but his outlook and advice have given me some perspective on a lot of different things. Even when I challenge him he is always able to bring me back to the goal I’ve set”
