My focus
I work with folks from all walks of life and with the most common issues such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, grief, fear, relationship issues, Post Traumatic Stress, trauma, etc. I also work with individuals suffering from paranoia, anger, and other more serious mental disorders.
My communication style
My clients describe a warm, compassionate, accepting, non-critical, and safe atmosphere.
My journey to mental healthcare
It seemed, as a young adult, folks would come to me with their problems or issues - even in the Army, guys would talk to me about things they wouldn't talk to anyone else about. Initially, my focus was on becoming a medical doctor - mom had scripted me to be a doctor by telling me, as a child that I would be a doctor - it stuck. However, in University, carrying three majors - pre-med, psychology, and theology sorted out pretty quickly because my actual passion was around Psychology. Anyway, as I overcame my own anxiety, I became a better-than-average psychotherapist. As I saw a psychologist for the last two years of graduate school - I became evangelistic about therapy - I wanted everyone to get into therapy.
