Isaac Coleman, LPCC Trauma Therapist

Living well is an art that nurtures body, mind, and spirit. I believe every individual contains the ability to heal themselves, but sometimes we get stuck in negative patterns and need outside perspectives. Therapy allows us to reprocess the past, to move beyond automatic responses, and live fully in the present. It is also about reimagining and actualizing the best life possible. By talking with an empathic and nonbiased specialist, we find the path to our true selves.

In addition to my education in counseling, I hold a master’s degree in creative writing. I have a deep appreciation for storytelling and a fascination with how our inner dialogue shapes our self-concept. This background lends itself to both Narrative Therapy as well as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. I also integrate Internal Family Systems into my theoretical approach as this helps us to more objectively examine parts of ourselves that cause us distress.

Through my own recovery, I discovered the power of mindfulness and acceptance practices. I believe mindfulness lays the foundation for us to genuinely self-explore and go deeper with somatic processing and cognitive therapy. When we gain a deeper awareness of our experience, it prepares us to challenge our current coping mechanisms and heal old trauma. Most often, our present afflictions and unhealthy behaviors are rooted in response to past events.

I am eager to help you find the best solutions for your unique life story.

Isaac works with people in all phases of their life journey, but he holds particular interest in helping young adults and teens. He is experienced in healing anxiety, addiction, anger, depression, and trauma. For fun, Isaac enjoys backpacking, yoga, tai chi, and kung fu.
