Onward Center - Ron Bristow

Ronald Bristow, LCPC

I began practice in 2010 and since that time have had the opportunity to spend time with people from all walks of life. From practicing counseling in a penitentiary to the community, and a number of stops in between, I have had the chance see people through seemingly epic ups and downs on the path of getting back to feeling like themselves again.
I am very aware of how challenging counseling can be and try to make it as easy as possible for everyone. I view our time together just like two people hanging out trying to solve a puzzle. I am upbeat, easy going, frequently use humor (or try), and believe that together we can make progress no matter what challenges we may be facing.
