As an African-American male providing therapy since 2007, I bring a multicultural perspective that has enabled me to work effectively with a wide range of clients. I'm a licensed mental health therapist who mainly works from a Cognitive Behavioral and Humanistic Therapeutic approach to help address many issues in counseling. My belief is that people and families experience different problems and need help to navigate through them by addressing their thoughts, feelings, behaviors and relationships with others. Washington State Approved LICENSED CLINICAL SUPERVISOR.

I enjoy spending time with my twin brother, family, traveling, listening to music, dancing, working out, and riding motorcycles. I have traveled to Central America and enjoy speaking Spanish; eventually I want to visit Europe and Africa. I'm a very outgoing person and love to try new things.
