Your strengths and needs are as unique as your reasons for seeking therapy in the first place. This is why I take a conversational, client-centered, humanistic approach to therapy. This approach incorporates elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. I truly believe there is no problem too small or large to address in therapy, and in fact, one does not need to be experiencing a specific issue to benefit from the opportunity for personal growth counseling offers. No matter what circumstances may have brought you here, please accept my invitation to reach out today.
I have special experience in developing therapeutic relationships with veterans suffering from substance use, mental health, and dual diagnosis concerns. As a veterans treatment court clinician and the son of a Vietnam Era NCO, I am sensitive to the role military traumas can play in mental health challenges. and I am ready to listen and offer support.
Regardless of background, my top responsibility is to ensure my clients feel safe, heard, and validated. My approach is a person-centered one that trusts YOU are the expert of your own experiences. Whatever your reason for seeking therapy, I am passionate about joining you in searching for, discovering, and embarking on the path that fits your unique needs.
