Welcome to Suncrest Counseling, where Ryan Nielsen, Counselor (MA, CMHC), leads a dedicated team of professionals committed to supporting individuals on their journey toward healing and growth. Recognizing that confronting life's challenges can be daunting, Ryan and his staff offer an array of therapy modalities tailored to meet diverse needs. With a focus on a whole-person approach, Ryan harmonizes the body, mind, and spirit to foster genuine healing. He brings extensive experience working with complex trauma, anxiety, depression, and addiction, valuing each person as an individual rather than a disorder. Driven by a passion for facilitating understanding of negative thinking patterns and unhealthy behaviors, Ryan emphasizes the importance of connection and emotional focus in his therapeutic practice. He believes that issues in attachment relationships—particularly in love relationships—are central to many mental health challenges, including addictions. With a core belief in the essential need for love and attachment throughout life, Ryan is grateful to play a role in his clients' healing journey.
