I'm a licensed clinical psychologist with 17 years experience seeing a wide-variety of clients of all age ranges who have come to me with a plethora of diverse presenting concerns. I approach therapy from a collaborative perspective with the understanding that the client is in the driver's seat and my role is to serve as a navigator to help each person move in a value-oriented manner that is goal-directed.

Life is hard and sometimes we need help navigating through it. So many of us have those negative thoughts / beliefs that play out in our mind, some from early childhood trauma, others from ourselves. I can help you get rid of those negative messages and reduce or eliminate any symptoms that are a result of those messages and improve your life. I believe that a lot of us have beliefs/ thoughts that are a source of distress, does not matter if / when they started, it matters that they are distressing. There is a lot of negative out there and it is easy to focus on that and not what the positive that you are doing. A lot of people need help in seeing the positive there are doing and being validated for their feelings/actions. I meet the person where they are and will tailor the sessions with input from you to what best meets your needs. I am eclectic. I will provide education on different trauma treatment modalities to provide you the information that will help you decide the treatment modality that works best for you.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker experienced in working with individuals navigating both substance use, serious mental illness, and a variety of mental health concerns. I received my MSW from the University of Kentucky and specialized in Clinical Social Work. I’m truly passionate about helping people find their own way through recovery, focusing on building a life that actually feels authentic and sustainable for you.

I am excited about the success my clients have accomplished. It is their discovery that is most interesting: for example, it is possible to change personality even though we have always been told it never happens! We approach this by exploring emotions that form the building blocks of personality. In this sort of work, I find that the most effective therapy happens when clients and I form a interpersonal therapeutic bond of trust. By the way, when I say that change is possible , I really believe it, and I am confident that if you are willing to work on what many would call impossible...building trust...you will leave our sessions feeling a sense of increased wholeness.

I look forward to three things: meeting you, supporting you on your mental health journey, and eventually helping you feel ready to move on from therapy. While I can't promise or guarantee specific outcomes, I want you to know that I am fully committed to serving as both your therapist and accountability partner. Before starting my career as a social worker, I’ve held positions in behavioral health and rehabilitation services, building on my undergraduate studies in Administration of Justice. My primary focus was on children and adolescents facing behavioral challenges, during which I made home and school visits to work directly with kids, their families, and teachers. These experiences provided me with an honest understanding of the challenges they face and helped me learn early signs of behavioral difficulties and targeted intervention strategies. Over 16 years in behavioral and mental health—including eight years as a social worker in the emergency department—I witnessed firsthand the urgent needs of individuals in crisis. Working closely with first responders, including paramedics and police officers, not only sharpened my crisis intervention skills but also positioned me to support clients facing challenges beyond just immediate emergencies. I have been truly fortunate to serve in dual roles: one as a hospital social worker coordinating patient referrals and another as a therapist providing care outside of the medical setting.

I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the states of Florida, Virginia, Illinois and Massachusetts , with experience working with children, adolescents, families, and adults.

My primary concern is ensuring that you feel comfortable and safe to share openly. Wherever you are on your adventure, I want to meet you there and work with you until you reach your destination. I primarily practice cognitive behavioral therapy and I work very hard to keep myself updated on treatments that are identified as best practice therapy models by the state of Virginia. It is important to me to provide a service that is supported by research to ensure that my clients get the best service available. I tend to pull a lot from DBT, strength based counseling, motivational-interviewing, solution focused therapy, and mindfulness. It should also be mentioned that I have a lot of experience working with people who have had significant legal issues. I enjoy working with people from all walks of life, and I love to learn.

Hello, my name is Robert. If you are like other people and feeling the pressures of everyday life then the stress from the cares of attempting to live a normal life are working overtime.
