Steve Wasilczuk, Positive Regard Therapy
Pre-Licensed Professional, BM
I believe that an empathic and authentic alliance is the foundation for therapeutic growth and meaningful change. You are the ultimate expert on your lived experiences, and my role is to meet you where you are with respect, honesty, and humility. My approach is strengths-based, anti-racist, and identity-affirming, and I integrate humanistic principles with narrative, existential, solution-focused, and Adlerian practices. This allows us to holistically address your concerns in an environment where you can feel truly seen, heard, and supported.
Before becoming a counselor, I worked as a K-8 music educator. During this time, I witnessed firsthand the profound impact the COVID-19 pandemic had on my students and their families, especially in terms of mental health. These experiences, along with my own creative background, inspired me to pursue a career in counseling. Today, I work with clients who seek help with issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, identity development, and the unique pressures faced by those in the creative fields.
My identity as a performer has also instilled a passion for supporting those in the creative fields. As a musician and former music educator, I understand the unique emotional and psychological experiences that come with a creative life. Whether you're an artist, musician, writer, or actor, I know that your creative journey is deeply intertwined with your emotional world. In my practice, I aim to provide a space where your creative identity can be explored and supported. Together, we’ll work through the challenges you face—whether they are related to performance anxiety, creative block, personal relationships, or broader life transitions—so that you can thrive both personally and professionally.
Whether you're seeking to overcome emotional obstacles, strengthen your identity, or navigate the complexities of a creative career, I'm here to help you achieve meaningful growth and well-being.

If you are someone who is struggling with addiction, depression, or anxiety and want to get your life back, I am here to help! The transition from addiction to your new sense of normalcy can be overwhelming and scary. It can also have an intense impact on different areas of your life, including work, relationships, and hobbies. If you are looking to get back to reaching your goals and finding yourself again, look no further, as I am confident that I can be a part of your healing journey.
I have worked alongside many people attempting to stop drug and alcohol use over the last several years.

I have also helped many couples through the difficult transitions in addiction recovery and provide services for connecting you with local resources.
I know that finding the right therapist is difficult, and often, the search for therapy is a pain as it is, so feel free to reach out and schedule a consultation. I am happy to answer any questions you might have about getting started or point you in the right direction if you find that I am not the right therapist for you.
