Hello, I am an experienced MSW, LCSW with 30+ years of experience providing therapy and social services in a wide range of clinical settings: individual/group therapy, emergency crisis counseling, EAP and inpatient psychiatric hospitals. I have experience working with individuals, men and women, adolescents, couples and families. I have expertise working with clients/families dealing with bipolar, schizophrenia, anxiety, OCD, depression, adjustment disorders, anger, grief/loss, and family and medical issues. Personal info: Married 33 years, 4 children, 9 grandchildren. I enjoy cycling, fishing and visiting family. I am an active, healthy cancer survivor. I am retired, and my most recent full-time position; a medical case manager. I have a very flexible open schedule. I am a genuine- easy-going, non-judgmental person. I believe everyone has value and worth.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
First session is an introduction process -- with goal of introducing myself and my general process of providing therapy sessions.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I believe my 30+ years of experience is probably my most valuable asset. I also feel that my nonjudgmental viewpoint is very helpful and positive. And I believe that people certainly can use help navigating their problems-- but I think the best solutions in life are developed by people for themselves.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
Due to my wide range of experience I enjoy working with men , women and couples I feel very comfortable working with clients who are dealing with anxiety , depression, trauma, couple / relationship problems and patient dealing with serious medical issues.

Walt is an excellent therapist, I would highly recommend him if you are looking for serious advice, suggestions or wanting to hear another perspective because you’re tired of the same old cycles causing you stress. He is very kind, honest and solution based. He is warm and direct which we find helpful and value our time with him.
