01About Scotty
Scotty Hixson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who balances a relaxed, straightforward style with practical tools. He speaks plainly about how therapy can feel awkward at first and focuses on small, doable steps toward better daily coping. Scotty aims to create a space where people can be themselves, say hard things, and work through what matters most to them.
He emphasizes client-centered work, which means the person in the room helps decide what to focus on.
Background and approach
Sessions move at a comfortable pace and shift when needed. Scotty uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try new responses. Mindfulness is woven into sessions to help with stress, anxiety, and managing strong feelings in the moment.
Motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods are used when people want to tackle habits, addiction, or make life changes without getting overwhelmed by the process. Over a 15 year counseling career he has worked in outpatient clinics, inpatient mental health hospitals, and residential substance abuse settings. That range has shaped a practical approach aimed at everyday improvements.
He draws on lived experience as a long-term partner and a parent while keeping the work grounded and direct. People often come for stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, trauma, relationship and family problems, grief, parenting challenges, self-esteem and workplace issues. Scotty talks plainly, uses humor when helpful, and focuses on realistic ways to make things more manageable.

04Online support
Evidence-based approaches adapted for online care
Scotty commonly uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy when working online. Client-centered work focuses on what the person wants to tackle and adjusts pace to their comfort, helping them set realistic goals and steer sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy teaches practical skills to notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, depression, and stress over time.He also integrates mindfulness practice to help manage strong emotions and build awareness in everyday moments. These approaches are chosen collaboratively; the therapist and client talk about goals and try methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences. If something isn’t working, they change course together to find a better fit.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make counseling more flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and text lets someone share thoughts between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family, and daily life while keeping the focus on practical steps toward their goals.
