LPC, 10 years of experience
Hello, and thank you for considering my services. I am a husband, father of two, and a person of faith who values family and community. Outside of my work, I enjoy coaching youth sports and supporting the growth of young people. I am a fully licensed Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC) with more than 10 years of experience working with individuals, children, and families. I began my counseling practice five years ago and specialize in the treatment of addiction and mental health concerns. I hold a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Amberton University and a Bachelor of Science in Business and Human Development. In addition, I completed over 4,000 hours of chemical dependency counseling in both residential and outpatient settings through the Institute of Chemical Dependency, which led to my full licensure as an LCDC. I strive to bring professional expertise, compassion, and understanding into each session, creating a safe space for healing and growth. I believe my main attribute is being present in the session while attentively listening in effort to discover a clients fears, goals, and ambitions! My experience provides me the ability to provide an eclectic approach to meet the individual or couple's needs. I strongly believe my life experiences and educational background allow me to be versatility equipped and empathetic towards the potential trauma endured by the individual and family. Let me help you get your life back on track!
Clients can expect a warm and supportive environment designed to help them feel comfortable as they begin the therapeutic process. In our first session, we will explore the experiences that led you to seek therapy and complete a biopsychosocial assessment to better understand your unique needs. From there, we will begin developing a personalized treatment plan. If that feels overwhelming, we can simply start with whatever feels most important to you in the moment.
My greatest strength as a therapist is being fully present and available in each session, creating a supportive space where clients feel seen and heard. I am flexible in adapting treatment modalities to meet the unique needs of every individual, ensuring therapy is both effective and personalized. In addition, I provide a trauma-informed approach that emphasizes safety, trust, and collaboration. With over 10 years of counseling experience, I combine compassion, understanding, and professional expertise to help clients uncover root concerns and feel empowered in their healing journey.
I work with individuals who feel weighed down by addiction, anxiety, depression, or the challenges of navigating life’s pressures. Many of my clients seek relief from both mental health concerns and the impact of addiction in their everyday lives. Whether you’re facing alcohol or pornography addiction, managing ADHD alongside depression or anxiety, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, I provide a safe and nonjudgmental space to help you move forward with clarity, confidence, and a renewed sense of direction.
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients recognize and shift unhelpful thought patterns, develop healthy coping skills, and approach challenges with greater balance and confidence. My style is genuine, collaborative, and practical. I aim to make therapy a space where insight leads to real world change.
