Mr. King is a Licensed Professional Counselor. It is his belief that the relationship between the client and counselor is critical and that growth and healing is a result of this relationship. As this relationship develops relevant issues can be discussed and than processed, thus allowing the client to make choices that brings about growth and development. Many of our problems (depression, anxiety, anger, etc) are multifaceted and as we begin to deal with the issues surrounding those problems the symptoms decrease and our lives become fuller.

I provide a person centered environment focused on fostering resilience and building upon personal strengths. My therapeutic approach is integrative and tailored to meet the individual needs of each client.
