MEET OUR FOUNDER
Healing Minds, Strengthening Relationships
In today’s fast-paced world with every technological opportunity to ‘stay connected’, many people struggle to meaningfully connect with others. I’m Connor, the founder of BodyMind Integrated Counseling Center, and I specialize in helping individuals and couples reconnect to themselves and each other.
About Us | Affirming Therapy at BodyMind
I formed BodyMind Integrated Counseling Center to provide whole-person care that integrates the wisdom of the body and the mind. Suffering occurs when we disconnect from our bodies, our emotions, our selves, and each other. Simply, I want to help people stop suffering.
We are more than our thoughts alone. Our bodies carry our stories and influence our thoughts and how we engage with the world. Focusing only on our thoughts doesn’t offer lasting healing in the way integrating the language of the body can.
From the days of my childhood, I’ve been a person my friends have come to for support and listening.
More personally, I came to be a therapist because I, too, had times when I felt lost, alone, and anxious. Through the help of supportive, patient people who “get it” and showed me compassion and kindness, I felt the power of the therapeutic relationship.
I want to use my innate strengths of listening, empathy, and compassion to help others experience the kind of supportive healing I’ve been privileged to have.
BodyMind Integrated Counseling Center is not intended to be a solo private practice, although it is just Connor at the moment.
We intend to model the very thing we offer to our clients – connection and community. Our goal is to onboard clinicians who align with and complement current services by 2026.
We are committed to creating a workplace community that thrives on connection, integrity, inclusion, and belonging. We can’t offer to our clients what we don’t embody ourselves, so
our promise to our clients and to our staff is that we embody the practices we provide to
our clients.
