Hoxworth Counseling Services
We provide in-office counseling sessions, following safety measures (masks, social distancing, hand sanitizer). We also provide Telehealth* counseling sessions as needed or as requested, using the HIPAA compliant platform called doxy.me. We understand that your privacy is of utmost importance, so if you would feel more comfortable you can request one of our counselors that live out of the local area.

From another happy client. Hoxworth IS THE ONLY PLACE TO BE IF YOU WANT HEALING! While traditional "talk" counseling is a tool to healing, Hoxworth also offers EMDR and LENS Programs! These have been a lifesaver for my teen and myself! We were always "walking on eggshells" around her until we utilized these programs!
Services
Our counselors have counseled many people who have experienced a traumatic event or significant negative event that resulted in having difficulty coping, depression, hopelessness, despair, and emotionally feeling stuck to move forward. We often don't realize just how much our past affects our present.
Low Energy Neurofeedback System (LENS) is an innovative, effective and a natural approach for emotional regulation. Neurofeedback is a form of EEG biofeedback based on the electroencephalogram. It is a scientifically proven brain-based technique that helps clients balance and normalize their brain function and body regulation.
Payment for counseling services are due and payable in the office at time of service, including insurance deductibles. Accommodations can be made for clients requiring additional paperwork from a therapist (i.e., ADHD assessments, treatment records, etc.)

We can submit client medical records directly to Social Security for clients requesting Social Security Disability benefits (medical release form required: Authorization for Scheduling, Billing, and Payment Purposes).However, Hoxworth Counseling Services is not legally authorized to assist in filling out or submitting questionnaires to Social Security.
By completing the documents before you arrive, you prevent the need to arrive early for paperwork. Select 'Save link as', rename the file as form title, and then select where you want to save the file. Note: You should be prompted for the email program you want to use. Note: We recommend that you also download/save the forms for your records, and so you can print in case we don't receive them via email.
Bret is actively engaged as a privately practicing Master's Level Psychologist with over 20 years of counseling experience in the mental health field, including church-based pastoral care. He earned his Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology at Western Michigan University, focusing on relationship and family issues.

I’m very grateful for this office and for my therapist. He always goes above and beyond and sends me all kinds of helpful information to help me navigate what’s going on in my life. The staff is incredibly kind and welcoming. I recommend Hoxworth to everyone searching for therapy.

I started counseling at Hoxworth about 3 years ago. I suffered from complex trauma and severe anxiety. After hard work doing EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization) and LENS (Low Energy Neurofeedback System) therapy, I finally found true healing in my life. I went from barely surviving to thriving.
Fast forward to now and I actually work here in the office. Not only do I work the front, but I was blessed enough to be trained as a certified LENS technician. Because of the people in this office, I was able to take my mess and turn it into a message. Now I am able to take my struggles from the past and

Horrible services. I was told that my insurance would be covered, and they ended up billing me all the way back to January. Not only that, I was told that services were completely covered, and I am now informed that I will be charged a ridiculous co-pay that was not stated previously.

The best experience I have had in therapy is at this office! Tried many over the years and this is it! A little back and forth with insurance company at first. But once that was cleared up, its been fantastic! Steve and Kayla are my fave! Flexible hours and caring staff. Highly reccomend.

I don't think organization and communication is one of their strong suits. Counseling services were good.
