As I Am Counseling
“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.”
— Carl Rogers
Welcome to As I Am Counseling. We offer a compassionate, safe haven for those navigating the complexities of faith, spiritual identity, and religious life transitions. Whether you are personally wrestling with a faith crisis, working through religious trauma, or supporting a loved one through their own journey, we are here to walk beside you with understanding and respect. Our practice embraces the unique ways you experience spirituality, offering personalized support through nature-based walk-and-talk therapy, comfortable in-office sessions, or convenient virtual appointments. You don't have to navigate this path alone; we are here to honor your experience.
About Me
Adam Hunt, MA, CMHC
As a licensed professional counselor based in southern Utah, I bring a personal perspective to my practice, having spent most of my youth in the state. My experience has given me a deep understanding of how religious culture can shape our self-perception and worldview—sometimes serving as a source of strength and other times complicating our most cherished relationships.
In my professional work, I strive to honor the diverse faith backgrounds and Christian identities of my clients by maintaining a broad understanding of spirituality. While I value and incorporate the individual beliefs of those I counsel, I do not base my practice on any specific religious ideology. My goal is to foster an environment that respects diversity and remains inclusive of all faith journeys.
Beyond my clinical role, I am a husband and a father to four children. I personally love the outdoors, particularly running, hiking, and fishing. This personal passion often intersects with my counseling approach, as I frequently offer walk-and-talk sessions in nature to enhance the therapeutic experience for my clients.
