Do you long for acceptance and happiness, both within your self and your love relationship, as well as friends?
One approach I use, Rapid Resolution Therapy, is powerful and life transforming . Emotional problems, and relationship difficulties seem impossible to resolve when influenced by past traumatic events. RRT is an integrative approach that clears the exact traumatic event even if repressed or forgotten. Negative emotions are replaced with energy and peace . Healing takes place.

My professional background has primarily focused on qEEg, neurofeedback training, couples therapy, group therapy, sex therapy, men's issues, and existential crises, with experience working mostly with adult populations and psychological concerns.
My ideal patient is someone who may be struggling to find relief with just psychotherapy and/or psychotropic medications alone. This is a person who feels stuck and wants to seek alternative approaches towards improving their mental health. I'm a great fit for those who value a therapist who does not “feel like a therapist.” I bring a very down to earth and playful presence to my therapeutic space that makes it feel like you’re simply talking to a friend. I hope that my patients leave feeling inspired, hopeful, and at peace with themselves.

Brad specializes in couples/marriage therapy, young adults in transition, parenting issues, adult ADHD, addictions, and trauma.
I see therapy as a bolder endeavor than “learning new skills”.  That’s part of it, but ultimately it is an organic conversation between human beings where growth and change are the expectation. Real change happens through the dynamic, ongoing conversations in the therapeutic relationship, where the person comes to know themselves more deeply.

I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families who are ready and motivated toward change, however, just aren't sure how to get there.
I specialize in trauma-focused counseling. Traumas, big or small, often cause depression, anxiety, strained relationships, occupational & academic obstacles, which interfere with achieving life goals. With guidance and support clients learn to make connections between past traumas, current stressors and triggers to employ new and more adaptive ways to cope.

Additional certifications are in the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT) which can help us better understand the impact of trauma(s) on your functioning, and Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT) which can help with communication during relationship conflict.
Starting therapy can be intimidating, whether it's our first time or we're coming back after a hiatus. My hope for each person I have the privilege of connecting with is to help them unravel the chaos and find clarity. Clarity in healing can look like identifying ways to move forward, and it can also look like dropping back into our bodies and allowing ourselves to fully feel what is there. I enjoy working with motivated teens, emerging adults, & adults who are looking for a warm, authentic, and nonjudgmental connection. I look forward to helping you find the path forward that feels most healing.
