Clients say this provider is
My path to becoming your therapist is somewhat unique compared to others in the field. Over the years, I have built a diverse professional background that began with a career in sales. I then transitioned into the Long-Term Care Industry, where I served as both an Admissions and Marketing Director and a Director of Social Services. In addition to these roles, I have been actively involved in my community, working as an HIV/AIDS Intervention Specialist and a Substance Abuse Counselor. For a decade, I also had the privilege of serving as a Licensed Pastor. On a personal level, my life has been enriched by becoming a husband, a father, and more recently, a grandfather. Throughout my journey, I have experienced many of life’s joys and victories. At the same time, I have learned valuable lessons from self-inflicted setbacks and from dealing with the consequences of choices that cannot be changed.
There is an old saying: "One size does not fit all." My approach to counseling is centered around this belief. I am committed to adjusting my counseling modalities to meet your unique needs. Whether you require motivation today or compassion and empathy in the future, together we will create an environment that fosters your growth and development in each individual session.
My greatest strength as a therapist is recognizing that your counseling journey isn't something you go through alone. Because I've faced my own challenges and mistakes, I know change can be tough. This helps me truly listen to you and see your potential and possibilities.
My ideal client is someone who is ready to engage in honest self-reflection. It is important that you are truthful not only with yourself but also with me as we work together. If, at any point, I recognize that I am not the right therapist for you or that I cannot provide the support you need, I will be transparent and not waste your time. At the same time, I expect my clients to demonstrate commitment to their own growth. If you are not prepared to invest effort or are unwilling to move forward, I will not allow you to waste my time either. Progress in therapy is a shared responsibility, and your willingness to do the work is essential. An ideal client is also open to learning and practicing visualization, as this is a powerful tool in our work together. I can guide you only as far as you are willing to envision your own progress and healing. Finally, the ideal client values the power of thoughtful questions and the depth that comes from truly listening. Openness to exploration and curiosity are important qualities that will help you get the most out of our time together.

He challenges me to be better. He is intelligent and very knowledgeable. He really went deep today and gave me a lot to think about and prepare for. He help me understand what's most important to me. Now I can have the foundation of why I choose what I am choosing to fall back on, so that I can press forward.

I choosed Eddie because he is a black man and I felt my boyfriend would respond better to him as a black man himself. I am happy with my choice, not because of his race but he was able to listen to both of us and see our big picture. Eddie is very professional, but friendly and warm. We gelt very comfortable with him and looking forward to future sessions.
