Tyler Thursby, LAC

---

it’s nice to “meet” you! Whatever brings you here, welcome – I’m glad you’re  here. I am working under the direct supervision of Julia Spain (LPC), I am eager to continue developing my counseling education in the pursuit of helping others learn practical skills they need to take more accountability for their lives, endure the human experience, and achieve positive change.

I was initially drawn to a role in mental health after experiencing the benefits of therapy in my own life. Now, as a licensed associate counselor, I love being able to empower others through my professional work every day. I consider the trust my clients place in me as one of the greatest honors of my life.

As a person-centered counselor inspired by the teachings of Carl Rogers, I adopt a “relationship first” approach to counseling, using modalities such DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) and CBT (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy) to guide the treatment process.

Did you know the relationship you build with your mental health provider determines the overall effectiveness of treatment by as much as 30%? It’s true! The relationship you build with your counselor is so important! That’s why I adopt a person-centered approach to my practice, one that emphasizes unconditional positive regard above all else. Therapy is for everyone. Whatever your background or personal history, I have a seat open for you here.

Everyone is battling something, but nobody needs to go it alone. My role as your counselor is to act as a companion on the path – offering a friendly ear and an objective voice (mixed with a little timely humor along the way). Together, we’ll work to identify the obstacles that impede your personal growth and help you hone the skills you need to transcend those challenges as an individual. You are stronger than you think!
