My name is Willard and I am a licensed counselor in several states. My practice primarily focuses on helping others deal with ambiguity.

This is primarily accomplished through conversation and allowing you the client to guide the therapy in the direction it needs to go.

As a therapist I utilize clinical interventions and techniques that are individualized to unique issues of the client. I have extensive training and experience in evidence based treatments such as cognitive behavior therapy (CBT). In addition, I am also trained in sex therapy and incorporate sex positive approaches with clients. In my experience I find that an integration of clinical modalities is often most effective and appreciated by clients. Overall I approach my work with clients from a strength-based perspective. I believe that clients possess the strengths and resources within their lives to be successful in overcoming the challenges and problems that they face. These challenges come in the form of mental health problems, relationship issues, or other stressors that arise out of life circumstance. My commitment is to use the most appropriate techniques and interventions that allow clients to resolve problems, reduce symptoms, and increase personal strengths and skills for dealing with these issues in the future. Clinical areas of experience and expertise include the treatment of depression, anxiety, personality disorders, sexual problems, sexual orientation, LGBTQ issues, relationships and sex, alternative lifestyles, and substance use disorders. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you. You may schedule online or if you have further questions about scheduling please reach out!

Advocating For You, LLC was founded with the mission of developing clients' autonomy and advocacy skills to help them optimistically confront life’s obstacles, promoting resilience and increasing self-esteem.

For the past six years, I have been developing skills to adequately help adults, adolescents, and families with stress, anxiety, depression, and interpersonal conflict. By working together, we will find understanding and meaning in life's experiences, with the goal of developing healthy coping strategies that build a sense of empowerment. Using modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strength-Based Therapy, Writing Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy, I will help you navigate life’s current and future stressors.

Hi, I'm Jay. I'm a cognitive-behavioral therapist with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I excel at helping people with mood-, relationship-, and trauma-related issues. I have advanced training from the Feeling Good Institute and continue to train in CBT and other approaches. I provide data-driven care. We'll track your mood before and after each session. We'll also track your satisfaction with our therapy sessions so we can make adjustments to make it as optimal as possible. This is also the primary way that I improve as a therapist - with your immediate feedback. We'll use Google Drive as our hub for your therapeutic growth. You'll have your homework and session tracker, data tracker, and all of our customized work together in one place to take with you after we complete therapy together. I see people weekly, or biweekly, for hour long sessions. The vast majority of people will experience significant improvement in their areas of concern in just 3-4 sessions.
