When life hurts, I can help. Are you struggling with difficulties that have you feeling depressed, angry, worried, or guilty? Are your relationships at home or work in trouble or conflict? I help individuals and couples who are facing a variety of issues such as depression, anxiety, anger, infidelity, pornography, coping w/chronic illness, sexual problems, PTSD, OCD and much more. I started out my professional career as a church pastor, and in my 40's transitioned into becoming a counselor/therapist. I guide people to get over problems and to be their deeper, higher, and more loving, compassionate self.
I have training and specialty in being able to help people talk about their problems and finding solutions to lead a less stressful and more calm, relaxed, happy, peaceful, and fulfilling life. I have been doing this for over 40 years in the fields of mental health and spirituality.
I work out of my home in Blacksburg and you will be able to talk in a private, relaxed, and welcoming environment. I'm in a wheelchair and can't walk due to Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and this has helped me help others w/chronic illness, both mental and physical.
