Hi! I am Augusta Clayton, an intern at High Point Counseling with a passion for helping individuals achieve well-being. Living in various states and a repeat Wyoming resident, I developed an appreciation for various cultures and adaptability. I love traveling, whitewater rafting, hiking, interior decorating, yoga, concerts, new adventures and connecting with those closest to my heart.  

My counseling vision is to provide space for clients to find their voice, reduce shame, develop self-advocacy and to be “seen” through unconditional positive regard. Central to my therapeutic approach, is the belief that the counseling process is a collaborative alliance, where clients can feel safe in a supportive, non judgmental capacity to explore their thoughts, emotions and experiences freely. Within this framework, clients can access their inner strengths to promote healthy outcomes.

My professional journey has given me the opportunity to work with diverse backgrounds and various age groups, with over 9 years of experience working with co-occurring disorders, trauma informed care, religious trauma, substance use and recovery, first responders, the justice system, elementary school, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and various spiritual beliefs. I also have additional experience in emotional regulation, trauma, ADHD, depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, anger management, stress management and PTSD/CPTSD. I also bring experiences of a professional, parent, daughter, friend, spouse, and multiracial individual.
