Brad Trathen honors the courageous first step each individual takes towards change. He believes that counseling is a journey of exploring the unknown or hidden aspects within oneself. With a safe, non-judgmental, and calm approach, Brad guides his clients—whom he affectionately refers to as 'explorers'—in cultivating curiosity and finding the courage to face challenging emotions or events. This process creates an opportunity for clients to examine the various ways they may have been avoiding, denying, or failing to see their true nature with clarity. For those who feel lost on life's path, Brad extends an invitation to reconnect with oneself. He emphasizes the importance of the present moment, asserting that no one has ever truly been separate from it. Each life situation can serve as a tool or entry point into understanding what is true and real. Within every experience lies a teaching; the question remains—can one remain open and receptive to the unfolding nature of the present moment?
