About Bryan
Bryan Stanfill is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Washington and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Idaho with 22 years of experience. He works with stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, intimacy-related concerns, men's issues, and related mood challenges. He offers straightforward, skills-focused help for people who want practical ways to feel and function better.
Bryan draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and related approaches to look at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. He helps people notice automatic assumptions and try alternative responses. Sessions emphasize concrete steps you can practice between meetings rather than long talks alone.
He has worked in private practice, schools, inpatient and residential programs, and community-based settings. That variety has shaped a flexible, results-oriented style aimed at everyday problems like sleep troubles, relationship strain, grief, and coping with life changes.
People who connect with him often want clear tools for emotion regulation, relapse prevention, or rebuilding routines after a difficult period. He also addresses topics such as ADHD, trauma and abuse, bipolar and depressive moods, and issues tied to adoption and family of origin.
Bryan approaches each case by testing assumptions and changing behavior patterns step by step. He invites collaboration on goals and plans exercises that fit a client's daily life. To begin, readers should confirm session options and follow the site signup to schedule an initial appointment.
Using CBT, DBT, and Trauma-Focused Work in Online Sessions
The therapist commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. CBT sessions focus on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new ways of responding to stress, anxiety, and mood concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used to teach concrete emotion regulation and distress-tolerance techniques that help manage intense reactions and reduce impulsive behaviors. Trauma-Focused Therapy involves stabilizing symptoms, processing traumatic memories when appropriate, and building safety and coping skills for people affected by abuse or traumatic events.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try methods that fit those aims, and adjust the plan based on what works in practice. Clients and the therapist work together to choose which skills to prioritize and how to practice them between sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people try skills in their everyday settings and bring real-life examples into sessions. Ask about available session lengths and formats when scheduling to find a workable plan.
