One afternoon I told my wife that after another tour, I would be leaving the U.S. Coast Guard for a very different career. Serving my country and the men and women of the U.S. Coast Guard is one of the greatest honors and privileges of my life. After serving nine years I knew that directly assisting and serving people is the life-giving work of my heart. I became a Social Worker and therapist because it is my greatest joy and pleasure to support you as you unify all your strengths and gifts to release your Faith, Hope, and Love into society.
The ABCs of positive mental health are Acceptance, Belonging, Connectedness, and Security. I support families and individuals in fostering and utilizing the ABCs to resolve past conflicts, focus on the present, and plan for the future. I further support children and adults in galvanizing thier considerable strengths to love and be content with who they are.
Can I possess a sense of Acceptance and Belonging with others? …with myself? Yes, you can! Unity within the diversity of YOU is possible such that you can feel the Purpose, Security, and Connectedness of your life’s diversity working together (not against you) for your Joy and Empowerment. I have confidence in you. You can, you are able, and you will!
