Dr. Jack Wheeler

I am an environmental social worker and certified adventure therapist. My doctoral work focuses on community and nature-based interventions for holistic wellbeing. In the counseling office, I create a non-judgmental and exploratory space for you to consider the relationships, routines, and beliefs that are most impacting your success. Through personal reflection and increased self awareness, my clients maximize their potential to meet the demands of challenging work-life and family environments.

In addition to my certification as an adventure therapist, I am trained in traditional evidence-based approaches that include trauma-informed care, person-centered therapy, positive psychology, cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, acceptance commitment therapy, and motivational interviewing. I especially enjoy working with young adults (ages 15-23), LGBTQ+ clients, and those struggling with social anxiety, academic performance issues, and/or family conflict.

Many of my clients come from high achieving environments where they do not feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings with friends, family, or colleagues. I offer an open-minded and confidential space for you to raise awareness of your guiding values, understand how you show up in the world, and achieve balance in order to thrive in challenging life situations.
