About My Clients

Blake Russell has nearly a decade of experience working in the mental health field in various roles. Blake uses an integrative, trauma-informed approach while focusing heavily on the therapeutic relationship. Blake works with adults of all genders, finding particular fulfillment in working with men given that societal pressures indirectly teach men to suppress their feelings.

My Background and Approach

Whether you’re battling with endless cycles of anxiety and/or depression, struggling with setting firm boundaries within the interpersonal relationships of your life, thinking your past is spoiling your now, or simply seeking meaning in the overall progression of your existence, I am confident that you and I can work toward a deeper understanding of what is not working and change it. Considering that you are the expert of your own life, my goal will be to collaborate with you to identify obstacles keeping you from living a life that you desire and help you create healthy solutions to these barriers. I specialize in identifying consistent behaviors and problems contributing to an unfulfilling life. We can work collaboratively on helping you move forward with life in a more fulfilling manner. I am currently offering virtual sessions through my practice, You're Normal.
