John (J.C.) Holt

J.C. Holt specializes in cutting/self harm, trauma and helping young adults/professionals navigate life’s challenges. He believes in creating a warm and empathetic environment to work with clients. He believes that clients have the power to change themselves and have the strength to heal. J.C. is passionate about working with many kinds of clients including those with personality disorders and those in non-monogamous/open/polyamorous relationships.

J.C. has a varied background from doing research in a neuroscience lab to teaching art to those with intellectual and developmental disabilities. He feels that in addition to his graduate training and clinical experience, these varied experiences give a wider perspective to draw from in his work.
