Getting to know Clay Markwell

Hi there, I'm Clayton! My name is Clay Markwell, and I am a Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) and Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC). I earned my bachelor's degree from Indiana University Bloomington. I provide a space where clients can safely explore their pain, find meaning even in suffering, and reconnect with their innate capacity for growth and change. I’ve been involved in the recovery and mental health community for nine years—initially as a person in recovery and later as a professional. This combination of lived experience and formal practice has deeply shaped my therapeutic approach. My approach I use a person-centered, direct, and action-oriented approach. While honoring genuine human connection, I provide practical feedback and encourage holistic well-being to treat the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. This often involves addressing factors like diet, exercise, sleep, connection, stress reduction, and spirituality. I draw on cognitive-behavioral and skills-based therapies to foster effective coping mechanisms, and existential principles to help clients cultivate resilience, find meaning, and create lasting change. My focus My passion lies in working with individuals and families to overcome addiction or compulsions and with anyone seeking change to unburden themselves from suffering. I primarily work with individuals facing addiction, depression, anxiety, or the stress of living out of balance—feeling incongruent with their authentic selves and the person they believe they are capable of being. My clients often seek a more active, holistic approach that considers diet, exercise, and lifestyle factors. I’m comfortable treating those in recovery, people experiencing life transitions, and anyone striving for purposeful, meaningful change. My goal is to provide comprehensive, compassionate care tailored to each individual's unique needs.
