In our lives, each of us will need the strength of another person, though, allowing another person to help takes great courage. As a therapist, I strive to provide a place where the courage to ask for help is met with compassion and patience as we embark on the path to healing together. I help clients with many common struggles (e.g., anxiety, depression, etc.) make the changes they want for a more fulfilling life. I work with children as young as 10 years old up through adults in individual, couple, and family settings.

The world we live in, both external and internal, can at times seem impossible to navigate. How does one navigate life stressors, past trauma, depression, and/or anxiety, especially if those tools were not necessarily modeled to us growing up? I can help provide support and be a guide through your mental health journey. In 2010, I graduated from Argosy University Atlanta with a Master’s Degree in Community Counseling. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I have worked with individuals of all ages in various settings such as a child advocacy center, in-home therapy, psychiatric hospital, private practice, and on a military base.

One of my core beliefs as a therapist is that there is power and healing in our human connections, in the words and lived experiences we share with one another. Therapy is a space for you to share your story and your experiences, and for us to work together to identify and address your unique needs. I work collaboratively with my clients to create this space and foster growth through warmth, humor, vulnerability, authenticity, and the relationship we build together. My goal is to create a space that is safe and supportive of your whole self and embraces all of your identities.

I have been married for over 45 years and have 3 adult children. Two of the children are biologically ours and the third is adopted. They have blessed Ronda, my wife, and I with 9 grandchildren. I heard the call to care for people as a clinical psychologist when I took a gap year after high school. My personal and professional value system uses Love as the measure of my behaviors and motivations. One of my favorite movies is “What About Bob”. This movie makes the point that therapists and clients are both human, with their own foibles. My general approach is “ I am just one beggar showing another beggar where to find food."

I am so glad you found this page of the internet. Welcome :) All of us are figuring out how to do life. And some times there are bumps and turns on the road of life. Talking to a counselor may support you as you navigate the journey. I believe there is no minimum level of pain that qualifies someone for counseling as everyone can benefit from counseling. I am someone that knows the benefit and work it takes to engage in counseling. I take a collaborative approach with clients to help structure counseling to meet the client's goals.

I take time to clearly understand each client's problems, goals, and preferences, and then we work together to develop a treatment plan specific to these needs. Based on my experience, clients need to know that their problems are fully understood. When this occurs, they oftentimes feel that their problems are truly validated. Also, when a treatment plan is geared towards someone's specific needs, this offers hope and motivation for change. Clients have repeatedly given me the feedback that (1) I truly understand their problems and (2) I collaboratively work with them to develop tools for addressing their difficulties.

It takes time and energy to improve the quality of your life & relationships, become the type of person you want to be, and change how you think and feel about yourself. It is possible to create opportunities for happiness and fulfillment in your life. You don't have to do it alone. In addition to working with a variety of mental health concerns, I also have extensive experience working with people who struggle with fears and phobias, OCD, chronic worry, social anxiety, people who chronically doubt themselves and self-sacrifice, and have challenges with creating and maintaining healthy boundaries in relationships.

In my work I make deep connections with people as we meet and talk honestly. Each person who meets with me seeks to find meaning and purpose in life. Part of this process is helping the unconscious and the conscious talk to each other because many of our inner conflicts, i.e. fights with ourselves, come from a lack of communication between the conscious and unconscious. A part of the work is exploring what lies in shadow. This is not just repressed, ugly stuff. For many folks untapped gifts and potential lie in the unknown parts of themselves.
