Male Therapists in Greensboro, NC

My ideal patient does not exist, I truly believe anyone willing to show up to do the work, trust themselves, and build on every session is ideal because that is the most important part of the therapy process. I also believe that one of the foundational pieces of therapy is transparency. I try to remember everyone is on a different path, and their own pace concerning how they choose to express themselves. I'm known for my kindness, relatability, and willingness to adapt to my patient's needs as necessary. I take great pride in creating a safe space where patients can feel comfortable and vulnerable when working with me.

I would like to reach those brave souls who have gone through unsuccessful treatment in the past but who have not given up hope of finding the right therapist. Healing is an art as well as a science, and if a health care professional - regardless of title or degree - cannot incorporate that truth, no enduring benefit can arise. It is unacceptable that so many wounded, hurting people end up not receiving what they need from a therapeutic engagement — and every aspect of my approach to healing is underpinned by a stark awareness that failures in treatment are in almost every case due to the professional and not the client.

Everyone is responsible for protecting and nurturing their mental health. Navigating through difficult life experiences can manifest stress, unhappiness, anxiety, anger, etc. Sometimes, we develop harmful ways to cope with these life experiences such as isolating ourselves, lashing out at others, abusing substances, among other things. It can be difficult to take the first step and reach out for therapy/counseling. However, taking that first step means that you're prepared to figure out how you can improve your circumstance and move forward. It's my mission to offer you support through your process of achieving mental wellness!

“No” is not in your vocabulary. You pride yourself on being the most helpful, the best son/daughter/mother/father/community member. You were raised in a religious/spiritual tradition that discouraged expressing your needs. Maybe you overcommit yourself, and you've been overwhelmed by everything going on in life. You’ve always felt “different” from everyone around you and don’t quite know where you fit in. You want to better understand yourself and communicate with others.
