I tend to thrive in crisis. Ideal with the toughest cases of trauma, shootings, cults abductions, and domestic violence. I have been able to help so many veterans as well over the past 12+ years in my positions with US Service Animals, Simple, Practice, Grow Therapy and other telehealth platforms. I was an early adopter of telehealth and I have seen it.

I have a lot of insight when it comes to dealing with physical pain and disabilities as I have a visual disability since very young and suffered a TBI at age 24.

Make such a difference for so many people because of the comfort that is brought by being able to open up in an environment you know is safe, your own home/space. I take a solutions focused and a client centered approach. I am also insight oriented. I have a lot of insight when it comes to dealing with physical pain and disabilities as I have a visual disability since very young and suffered a TBI at age 24. I like to focus on what issues you are having and come up with coping mechanisms that will work for you. Dealing with the struggles I have had throughout my life has helped me work with people and develop creative and effective coping mechanisms for their specific issues. I have now lived and worked in several states with varying cultures and have benefited from all of these experiences. I have spent a lot of time in a hospital and work well with nurses and medical professionals as well. Please reach out if you think I can help and I will meet you where you are and see where we can go from here.

I had my first appointment today, I left feeling comfortable and heard. He was very easy to talk to, relatable, and created an environment where I felt comfortable opening up. I appreciated that he took the time to listen and get to know me rather than jumping to medication for my anxiety. I felt like my concerns were heard and that we could work together to figure out what approach is best for me. I’m really appreciative of the positive experience and look forward to continuing sessions.

Toby convinced me that talk therapy can be effective with the right provider. He is an active listener and I have a much easier time talking to him than most other therapists I've tried counseling with. Many thanks Toby!

I have officially been working with Toby since November 2025. He understands me on a deep level as I have TBIs and need help navigating emotions. He has helped me find ways to communicate my feelings to loved ones when I need to.
