Seeking help from a mental health or addiction counselor can be a daunting task. Often times, individuals find themselves working with therapists who only give advice, teach how to breath, promote coloring in workbooks, and/or give homework assignments as a means to work on your presenting symptoms. With me, you will experience treatment in a different way. My name is Ryan Bowers and I am a professional counselor who practices traditional psychotherapy. This means that we will work on identifying core issues that are causing issues in your daily life, while creating goals that will help you be the best version of yourself.

We all experience challenges in our lives. Our primary relationships or lack thereof, shape the way in which we understand the world and our problems. I work with people in a way that examines relationships, relational narratives and that validates & identifies the emotions one may experience. As we experience relational problems and question traditional narratives, these ruptures may be the start of a problem, but being unable to truly identify what these problems make us feel causes a problem to linger. With this in mind, I specialize in working with anxiety, identity concerns, life transitions, interpersonal struggles and trauma.

You’ve been holding everything in & keeping it together, but have hit your limit. You’d love to feel free, but instead feel stressed, frustrated, overwhelmed & lost. It’s hard to relax. There’s a fun & playful woman in there somewhere, but she’s stifled by overthinking, overshadowed by your To Do list, & weighed down by the needs & expectations of others. You provide support & encouragement to others, but not yourself. Despite your own successes, you question if you’re good enough, can handle it all, prepared, or doing things “right." You’d love to feel seen & heard, & need space, support & guidance to help you grow & transform.
