I am a retired military veteran with over 30 years of leadership and behavioral health experience, dedicating my life to helping individuals and families navigate the challenges and stresses that life presents. I founded "Faith2Action Counseling Services" to continue my mission of supporting those in need, drawing on my extensive background in federal service. Having witnessed firsthand the struggles my clients face during traumatic life events, I understand how feelings of confusion, anger, and depression can take a toll, often leading to sleep deprivation and unhealthy coping mechanisms like alcohol or drug use.

- Currently only have availability for one every-other week slot - My approach to therapy is based on my belief that every person has inherent value and is a gift to the world. Throughout our lives we encounter experiences and relationships that can fracture our sense of self and disconnect us from what we need. I believe therapy is a way to help you get back into harmony with yourself – to learn to listen to what your mind and heart are telling you and to ground yourself in the value you were born with. As this grows, your ability to form healthy relationships, improve communications skills, reduce people pleasing and more can be address and improved as well. I would be honored to be a person helping you to do this. I have over 9 years of experience in the mental health field where I have spent my time building my skill and growing my knowledge. I graduated from the University of Cincinnati in 2016 and have worked in a variety of settings since, including community based centers. In my 9 years I have focused on specializing in helping people work through traumas (PTSD and Complex Trauma), anxiety and grief. I am EMDR trained, which is just one of the modalities I can use to help address symptoms, especially PTSD. My experience and trainings have helped me to provide excellent care to those individuals I've worked with, and I love what I do.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Delaware rather than a city like Wilmington?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Delaware. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Delaware from Dover to Newark! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Delaware.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Military/Veterans?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Military/Veterans, is filtering therapists in Delaware that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
