Collin Tomlinson

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over five years of experience working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, addiction recovery, emotional regulation challenges, stress, and life transitions in both individual and group therapy settings. My approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness, and wellness-based practices to help clients build practical coping skills and long-term resilience. I also have a strong interest in the connection between mental health, movement, nervous system regulation, fitness, breathwork, and personal growth. My goal is to provide a supportive, collaborative, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel empowered to better understand themselves and create meaningful change.

My approach is supportive, down-to-earth, and goal-oriented, helping clients better understand themselves while building practical tools to manage stress, emotions, and everyday challenges. I use approaches like CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness, and psychoeducation to help clients with strategies like breathwork, movement, and nervous system regulation to support overall mental and physical well-being.

Clients can expect the first session to focus on identifying current challenges, discussing personal goals, and creating a clearer understanding of what they would like to improve in their life, relationships, or mental health. We will begin developing practical goals, explore patterns contributing to stress or emotional difficulties, and identify coping strategies, strengths, and areas for growth. Clients can expect to leave the session with greater insight into their situation, initial tools or strategies to begin applying, and a collaborative plan for how we will work together moving forward.
