Brandon Woffinden, LCMHC

Brandon Woffinden is an LCMHC - Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in Utah with ten years of experience. He works with stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, relationship and family concerns, and other issues people bring from their past. Brandon also notes experience with first responder resiliency and supports clients handling life changes and career strain.

Brandon trained in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, earning his master’s degree from the University of Phoenix in 2012. Before that he spent a decade in law enforcement, which shaped his practical approach to problem solving and resilience. He draws on that background when helping people manage intense work stress or recovery after crisis.

His day-to-day approach uses straightforward tools. He often applies cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and change unhelpful thinking. He also uses dialectical behavioral strategies for managing strong emotions and building coping skills. Brandon adds mindfulness, breathing methods, meditation, and cognitive reframing to calm immediate reactions and build more useful habits.

Sessions move at a practical pace and focus on what the client wants to change. Brandon describes using interventions from multiple therapy schools depending on need. He also supports clients who are exploring personal spiritual paths as part of their healing and growth.

People who come with family of origin patterns, attachment struggles, or grief can expect direct discussion of how those past experiences affect current life. Brandon offers structured tools and conversational work to help people clarify goals and try new ways of responding.
