Hello, my name is Eric Dungan and I'm a Board Certified Diplomate in Clinical Social Worker. I attended University of Louisville. I specialize in PTSD, Grief, loss, Depression, Anxiety, Marriage and Family and Anger Management. I have years of experience in the field of mental health care. I strive to help people attain their maximize potential in all aspects of their lives, using several different treatments modalities. All sessions are focused, to provide a nonjudgmental and objective environment to help the patient view their struggles with a new objective fair perspective towards themselves and other significant people and events in their lives.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

My first sessions are extremely informal in nature where i share appropriate and relevant information about myself and my life journey, we discuss the three most important aspects of therapy as i have come to believe them to be, a series of very superficial symptom questions and then a chance to superficially discussed what brings the patient in for therapy. ending with a summary of our chat and any past diagnoses' the patient has been given by other providers.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I feel my strengths as a therapist are, objectivity, non judgemental, empathetic, compassionate, creative and caring. I feel i can bring a unique, honest, clear, open and objective approach based in accountability and positivity for patients to help see themselves and their emotional resiliency in a new and more objectively powerful light. This is geared to help them see the strengths deep inside of them along with their will and drive to better themselves and their overall life experiences.
