Obesity Therapists in Lithia, FL

We all encounter obstacles and challenges along our journey in this adventure that is life. Sometimes, despite previous experiences and present resources, it becomes overwhelming. Seeking assistance can be difficult, but therapy can provide a completely objective space where YOU can be seen and heard, unencumbered by fear of judgement or of your vulnerability being used against you. Together we can modify your thought habits, behavioral patterns, and subconscious roadblocks that are currently preventing you from making that change you desire or moving towards living your best life.

Going through something right now? Anticipating a life transition? Want to get to know yourself better? Here, you may freely share. Here, you will never be judged. If you’ve landed on my page, your reason is the right one.

In 2018, Because of the busyness in Northern Virginia, I opened an online practice to make Christian counseling more accessible. After moving to Florida, I expanded the services. I am licensed as an LCSW in both Virginia and Florida. You can receive professional support from the comfort of your own space. I enjoy working with individuals who suffer from anxiety disorders, depression, relationship difficulties and stress management. I tailor your counseling experience to you, using worksheets, talk therapy, art, DBT workbooks, CBT and a variety of other research-based methods.

I work via Tele-Mental Health Therapy in Florida and Kentucky. I work with those struggling with Depression, Anxiety, Addiction, Grief and Loss, or hundreds of other mental health issues. I believe you have the power to change and regain your life. I am just a fellow traveler on Life's journey who has many years of education and experience to help show you the way. I often work with my wife, Dawn, to help families and those struggling with their marriage or relationship. Sometimes couples prefer to talk with another couple. Dawn also helps with therapeutic support so you can get support during the week and between sessions.

As a certified Marriage & Family Therapist and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I offer an open-minded, non-judgmental, and empathetic counseling/therapy approach in a safe and supportive environment. Some problems, in our lives, are either self-imposed or imposed on us by other means. What we perceive might be different than reality. Negative beliefs affect us mentally and physically. Misinterpretations and irrational or self-defeating beliefs can create unhappy feelings, self-doubt, stress, depression, anxiety, relationship problems, etc. Problems don’t go away by themselves, we need to resolve them.

"Today is a new day, for a new beginning". We all have busy lives and sometimes forget about ourselves. We look for solutions but can't find them on our own.

I assist individuals with processing and given rise to their emotional and mental blockages that interfere with their daily lives. In addition, I provide a safe healing, holistic (mind, body and spirit) environment as well as bilingual (Spanish and English) services for the community.

Hello! Do you find yourself struggling with the same problems or just want more from life? Though we long for real support, the world instead often tells us to "suck it up," "get over it" or "take your medication." Many of us turn to self-medication. But you don't have to settle for just "getting by." I help people safely make contact, and actively deal with the the emotional origin of their issues. More than just talking about feelings or trying to control negative thoughts, the goal is to identify, understand and complete the unfinished business that has been troubling your life until now.
