About me

Are you feeling like your life or relationship doesn’t feel the way you wish it did? Is communicating to the people in your life, whether that is work, home, or love, a major challenge? Do you sometimes feel like you're not sure what the motivation is to get up the next day and do it all again? If the answer is yes to any or all of these, come see me. Whatever it is you’re facing we can identify and challenge it, create a new path forward if you're willing to put in the work. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with licenses in Ohio, Florida and South Carolina. I specialize in relationships and communication, dealing with family dynamics with specialized training in the Gottman method. I am a father of two which includes a step-daughter and special needs son, and have been married for nearly 21 years. I have particularly specialty in couples counseling where I am fair and even-handed, not taking sides. Christian counseling is available and part of my own personal journey. As I respect each individual's personal journey, it will only be included by your request. We all list the styles of therapy that as counselors we employ but at the end of the day you are coming to a therapist to be heard, be understood, and to be supported. I will do that for you without judgment or criticism. Let’s talk today!

Daniel, allowed us the opportunity to speak in our issues and opening discussion between me and my partner. He was direct and straight to the point. We enjoyed our session.

Dan started off strong when it came to providing feedback, exercises, and seemingly unbiased advice. Although the sessions are 45 minutes in duration, we felt rushed in our last session. We still had 10-13 minutes remaining in our session and we used that time to schedule our next session and end early rather than do a close out with the conversation we were having. Also, considering most of our sessions emphasized being forthcoming and concise with communication, Dan didn’t disclose upfront that he would not be able to be our provider once we both moved to Texas due to military orders. We discussed our future move within our first session and weren’t told about this until our fifth session.
