Hello, I’m Garrett, the founder of New Heights Counseling. I want you to know that, in many ways, I’ve been where you are. Having worked through my own recovery journey, I aim to partner with my clients to create a safe, collaborative, and growth-oriented space where meaningful change can truly take root.
​
My personal experience has taught me that one person can make all the difference. For that reason, my greatest desire is to help clients feel seen and safe throughout their healing journey. Emotional growth can be challenging, purposeful, and even joyful.
​
I often work with individuals navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, and addiction, drawing from approaches such as mindfulness, narrative therapy, trauma-focused CBT, EMDR, and solution-focused techniques. My goal is to help clients understand their stories, develop practical tools, and practice new ways of showing up in their lives.
Additionally, I’m trained in Arbinger and Family Systems approaches, which help individuals and families recognize patterns that fuel conflict and uncover areas of “self-deception.” Together, we work to build insight and practice new relational patterns that invite peace, clarity, and connection rather than ongoing tension.
I’ve spent over 15 years working with adolescents and young adults and am deeply passionate about helping young people while strengthening relationships within their families. I believe this population thrives when they feel understood and respected—without losing appropriate structure and accountability.
People often describe me as laid-back and easy to talk to, while also knowing I take their healing journey seriously. I bring humor into sessions when appropriate, and I’m equally committed to helping clients dig deep and do meaningful work. Clients often share that they feel safe being fully themselves, without fear of judgment.
