Hello! I'm Edward Parks. For more than 20 years I have worked in public mental health clinics and hospitals, honing my skills, in order to help you in an effective and efficient manner. I have addressed every issue from social anxiety to schizophrenia, and now, rather than applying a regimented school of treatment, I have learned to adjust my therapy style to my client's changing needs.

Reshape Your Relationship! When your marriage doesn't work it feels like torture - You tried to hold it together, but it's just too much. You feel more alone when you are together than when you are by yourself and you're afraid that it is too late to fix this - maybe not even sure you want to - there is a lot at stake and you're not sure what to do... Many couples face these challenges at some point in the relationship and get help to learn new ways to build relationships. The fact is that relationships are very repairable. Let me help you build a marriage that keeps getting better with time as you grow closer to each other.

Battling addiction and depression is a lonely place. It is hard for our family and friends to understand the internal struggle. Addiction is a safe haven from the chaos in the world around us. But at the same time, it is our addiction that keeps us from living our best lives. As a Certified Master Addiction Counselor, I know what it is like to live in fear of your next drink or gambling game. You want relief from your pain but are unsure where to find it outside of your addiction. I understand and have years of experience working with individuals and their families living with addition and family discord.

The decision to engage in therapy can be life changing. It can also be scary and challenging as we are giving up the most vulnerable details of our lives in hopes of living a better one. That decision to engage is one of the most powerful aspects of therapy and a responsibility that I hold in the highest regard.

Feeling anxious or depressed? Maybe not sure exactly why? I work with clients facing a variety of challenges including anxiety, depression, addictions, relationships, and trauma. I have a 2-pronged approach. I first work with my clients in identifying sufficient calming and coping mechanisms to deal with the here and the now. The next step is to map out the core issues that are causing the presenting concerns, and create a plan in healing them from the source. I have treated many clients who have been in therapy for years without actually tackling the root of the problem.

Thanks for checking out my page. Please know that I work exclusively with First Responders and mental health counselors. (I also am happy to provide consultation work with any previous clients to see you briefly) Practicing clinicians know well that doing this challenging work means our own feelings, our counter-transference experiences will arise. How do we function as self monitoring professionals? One way is to know when to seek therapy for ourselves. When we work on our own issues, we provide better care for our clients. If I can be of help to you, please reach out.

My love of counseling stems from an intense desire to act as a catalyst in the process of helping clients achieve their goals. I believe that the counseling relationship is unique in that the counselor is only as successful as the client. The symbiotic relationship between counselor and client should be made up of trust, acceptance, respect, and a desire to mutually work hard to create a more fulfilling life.

Nobody wants to feel like a burden. Feeling like a burden often leads to not wanting to talk to family and friends about our problems or struggles. This is where therapy can be useful. I work with individuals seeking help navigating difficult thoughts and feelings. My goal is to make it as easy as possible to open up. By creating a non-judgmental space, we can work on overcoming worries and stress. Feeling overwhelmed, at times, is part of the hu man experience but does not have to be a per manent state to live in.

Have you recently lost someone or something important to you? Grief is our internal response to loss. It's the mix of thoughts and emotions that come up when someone we care about passes away. Our ability to grieve comes from our capacity to both give and receive love. Many of us have heard that we're supposed to "move on" from grief. But the truth is, grief isn't something you just "move on" from. Instead, we incorporate our grief by letting ourselves feel its impact. It's like our grief guides us, rather than us trying to control it. Grief becomes a part of us when we welcome it, rather than trying to put a set time limit on it.

Male Therapists
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
