About Scott

Scott Wetherhold is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who helps people facing worry, stress, and painful life changes. He focuses on common struggles like anxiety, depression, trauma, and low self-esteem. Scott aims to create a calm, straightforward space where people can talk through what feels overwhelming and learn concrete ways to cope.

He draws on Narrative approaches to help people rewrite the stories they tell about themselves.

Background and approach

Scott also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered methods to clarify values and build practical steps toward change. Sessions tend to be conversational and goal-focused, with an emphasis on small, steady progress. Scott has five years of clinical experience and works from a perspective that can include spiritual themes when a client wants that.

He pays attention to how life roles, work stress, and caregiver burdens shape daily experience. He also supports people dealing with grief, anger, addictions, and relationship or communication problems. In sessions Scott helps people identify unhelpful patterns and test new ways of responding.

He offers techniques for panic, social anxiety, and coping after traumatic events. The work often includes practicing mindfulness, naming values, and experimenting with small behavior changes. People who reach out can expect clear explanations, practical strategies, and a respectful tone.

Scott accepts international clients and provides sessions that fit different schedules and needs.

Online session options

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Scott often uses Narrative Therapy to help people revisit the stories they live by and separate problems from identity. That approach can be useful for grief, shame, and life transitions when someone wants to change how they think about themselves.

He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on chosen values and small actions. ACT is often helpful for anxiety, panic, and stress when practical commitments matter more than eliminating uncomfortable feelings.

Client-centered work means sessions stay focused on the person's experience and goals, with the therapist offering reflection and support rather than strict direction. This style fits people who want a respectful, collaborative conversation about what matters to them.

Finding the right mix of approaches happens together. Scott will discuss goals and try methods that match a person's needs and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made. The process is collaborative and paced to what feels doable.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full sessions and deeper conversation, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is handy for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing work between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible for busy schedules, travel, or different comfort levels with being on camera.
