Scott Kohner's bio
This content was provided by Scott Kohner "In retrospect, being a psychotherapist was the obvious choice for me professionally, it just took me a while to see it. In college I chose to study English Literature because I loved reading fiction. Reading fiction was something I enjoyed because I felt it offered truth and insight into the human experience that enriched my life. I approach my work with clients with the same interest and attention as if I was sitting down to read a great novel. The years after college found me attending and then leaving law school after one semester, trying out a handful of different jobs in different industries, and largely feeling like I was struggling to find my place professionally. These experiences softened me and expanded my understanding of myself and the world, which I believe is a strength that I bring to my work as a psychotherapist. In my late 20's I became increasingly frustrated that I hadn't found a career path for myself which led me to seek out a psychotherapist. I found these meetings to be very healing, and as a result of therapy I was able to see my problems in a different way and find more tranquility in my life. As it turned out, while I was in therapy I found myself thinking that this was something I could enjoy doing professionally. Not wanting to jump in to another graduate program that I may or may not like, I volunteered at a suicide prevention hotline an evening a week and took psychology classes at community college during the nights after my day job. I continued to feel a sense of purpose and satisfaction in helping others and learning more about psychology. It was at this point that I decided to become a therapist. When I moved to Arizona to pursue grad school I got hit with some acute OCD symptoms which—upon reflection—had been under the surface for some time. I sought out a new therapist who told me about a very helpful book. Through utilizing the concepts in the book and processing my symptoms with her, I was able to move my life forward without the burden of the dysfunctional OCD behaviors. Not only was this a relief, but it also further validated my desire to become a therapist. Having impactful experiences with two different therapists showed me that effective therapy can come in different forms and that there is overlap between approaches. I believe this understanding makes me a more effective therapist than someone who relies only on one approach."

Care Philosophy
This content was provided by Scott Kohner "I offer psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and families. While I have learned a lot of important things in my education to be a therapist, I believe that who I am as person is what guides me most in my work. I greatly value interacting with others in a way that demonstrates hope, respect, and thoughtfulness. I've helped hundreds of people move beyond problematic patterns in their lives and encourage you to look at some of my online reviews in order to get a better sense of how therapy with me has led to lasting changes for my clients."
