Mason VanRossum ’20

Licensed Professional Counselor-IT

B.A. Psychology ÀÏ°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±¼Ç¼
M.S. Clinical College Counseling University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh

I have just recently graduated with my Master’s in Clinical College Counseling from University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, after graduating from ÀÏ°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±¼Ç¼ in the spring of 2020. I am eager to use my knowledge of campus life and counseling to help students work through the various things they may face during their college experience and life transitions.

My philosophy as a counselor starts with giving every individual the acceptance, care, and understanding that they deserve. I find that a combination of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Feminist Theory, Inner Child Work, Attachment Theory, and a solutions-focused approach can help clients’ work through past and present inner struggles, feel that they authentically have worth, and deserve love and happiness. By bringing unconscious struggles and beliefs into one’s awareness, I truly believe that as the primary experts in their lives, clients can develop understanding towards themselves and learn how to better navigate their day-to-day lives. I also believe my role as a counselor is to see a client’s individuality and humanity, show them my genuine self, acknowledge and understand my majority identities, and be a fierce advocate for my clients in and outside of the therapeutic space.

Specialities include: Anxiety, Depression, Stress management, AODA and Substance Use, Relationship and Family Issues, life changes and transitions, gender and sexual identity formation, LGBTQ+ concerns, Greek Life, and Academic and Athletic Performance.
