About Brandon
Brandon Woffinden is an LCMHC - Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in Utah with 10 years of professional experience. He lists concerns he supports including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, parenting, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and ADHD. Brandon also notes work around career strain, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes.
He trained with a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Phoenix and formerly spent a decade in law enforcement. That background influences a practical, calm approach. Brandon uses straightforward tools such as mindfulness, breathing exercises, and cognitive reframing in sessions.
Sessions tend to draw on cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy techniques, with elements from client-centered and existential approaches when useful. He also lists hypnotherapy and meditation among tools he may introduce. The emphasis is on concrete skills you can practice between meetings.
Brandon describes working with people facing PTSD, grief and loss, depression, and stress for those in high-demand roles including first responders. He notes interest in spiritual exploration as part of personal growth when clients want that.
Practical details are simple: session length and scheduling are handled via a booking page, and he mentions 30-minute increments. Payment uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and sessions are conducted in English from Utah.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Brandon commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking and acting. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT combines skills training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with strong emotions and relationship strain.He also draws on client-centered ideas, which emphasize listening and helping clients notice their own priorities. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Brandon will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences rather than imposing a single technique.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy home or work day, allow short check-ins when time is limited, and support practicing skills between meetings. Ask about session length and how meetings are run when you use the booking questionnaire so arrangements match your everyday schedule.
