About Aaron
Aaron Baskin is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Colorado. He focuses on helping people manage mood disorders like bipolar disorder and depression. He encourages people to use their own strengths when facing hard days and decisions.
Aaron believes people are experts in their own stories. He listens closely and helps clients notice patterns that get in the way of feeling better. Sessions are practical and centered on the person's goals and values.
Background and approach
He uses a mix of approaches, including client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral tools. These help with things like anxiety, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, and the ups and downs of work and life. He also supports people dealing with ADHD, stress, career shifts, and isolation.
Aaron draws on existential and narrative ideas to help clients find meaning and tell their story in a different way. Solution-focused techniques are used to set short-term goals and build momentum when change feels overwhelming. With three years of professional experience as an LPC, Aaron aims to make therapy feel usable and straightforward.
He works with clear steps so people can try small changes between sessions. That steady pace often helps clients regain control and move toward a more satisfying life.
Approaches that fit real life and online sessions
Aaron often uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can explore their own goals. This approach helps when someone needs a calm space to sort feelings and decide what matters most.He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on method that looks at thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, insomnia, or low mood. CBT tends to be practical and goal-oriented, with exercises you can try between sessions to build new habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Aaron will talk through options with each person and try methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. The first few sessions are for figuring out what helps and adjusting the plan as needed.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into busy lives. Video works well for deeper conversations, phone calls can be a good low-tech option, live chat offers faster back-and-forth, and messaging is useful for short check-ins or when writing feels easier. These formats help people connect from wherever they are and keep momentum between appointments.
