What other therapists say about Aaron
Aaron was my supervisor and I couldn't recommend him enough! I have ADHD and so it's hard for me to sit still, ESPECIALLY after I've been sitting all day for work. So for our sessions, we went for walks outside which was amazing for me! I definitely miss it now that I'm done with supervision. He's warm, supportive, and always willing to help! Highly recommend!
-Karrah Wood, LPC & Owner of Wildflower Psychological Services
Supportive, empathic, insightful, highly knowledgeable, and fosters all the right conditions for growth. 10/10 recommend!
-Katie Kalahurka Burnett, LPC & Owner of Limelight Counseling
I am a counselor in the KC metro area, and while I have not been a client of Aaron's for therapy he was my supervisor as I pursued my license to practice. In this aspect he was helpful in my growth as a counselor and practitioner. I would expect that he would be a good individual therapist for any concerns that you may be facing. He has a good understanding of trauma work and techniques as well as an extensive and diverse background in counseling.

Aaron is trained in various clinical & supervisory competencies & utilizes foundational learning from Dr. Carol Falender, PhD:
With the recognition that clinical supervision is a distinct professional practice comes the necessity for formal training to competency for supervisors. Competencies are available for all mental health professions. Competency-based clinical supervision is evolving quickly. A reflective, mindful approach, competency-based clinical supervision is strength-based, focused on upholding values and ethics of the profession, and devoted to enhancing supervisee competence, professionalism, and development while monitoring and gatekeeping for the protection of the client and the profession. This approach is metatheoretical which means it applicable with every supervision model (e.g., developmental, psychotherapy model-based). Competency-based supervision provides an intentional, systematic approach to supervision practice.
