Is the way you and your partner and/or family relate to each other problematic? I can help. I am specially trained to work with you from a systemic lens to help your identify resources that can be helpful. I believe you have within yourself and your life the resources to successfully make beneficial changes in your life. I utilize a variety of systemically based interventions to help invoke change in my clients. This incudes assigning homework to be completed before the next session.

Struggling is not shameful, and it takes courage to acknowledge and attend to those needs. When you are ready, I'm here to help you clarify, understand, process, and connect the pieces of the unique puzzle that is your life. I look forward to working collaboratively to build an individualized treatment plan to move toward your established goals. I'm experienced working with diverse clients in residential and community settings. I approach counseling from an integrative, holistic perspective leaning upon existential principles. I am currently accepting new clients, providing teletherapy only.

I have worked as the Manager of a Family Mental Health Program at a VA and have treated hundreds of couples and individuals with PTSD, stress-related disorders and mental illness. I currently provide innovative treatment to medical providers and 1st responders with medical trauma treating COVID. I have successfully treated hundreds of combat veterans , many of them African American, for trauma-related disorders, and all kinds of couple problems. I am a well-published grant-funded expert in my field and I will focus all my energy and skill on helping you to resolve your psychological problem. Call me for a free phone consultation.

It takes courage to reach out to another for support with life events, stress, and relationships. My goal in working with you is to provide support by observing and better utilizing your strengths while identifying what is getting in your way. Together we will explore how you can better manage symptoms of trauma, depression, low self-esteem, anxiety and relationship stress while recognizing harmful coping mechanisms and behaviors that are holding you back, such as substance misuse and disordered eating.

I have travel extensively for the past 7 years working with Military members traveling abroad as a solution oriented counselor. I continue to embrace and respect the various cultural experiences as an opportunity to effectively relate to all of humanity.

As a military Chaplain and relationship coach for more than 20 years, I have worked with individuals & couples from every demographic. Some have sought me out years after moving to different locations and I have a proven record of helping people who are going through difficult situations. This includes leaders making organizational decisions, couples working through issues, and people who lack the confidence or courage to deal with challenges. I sit with people in grief or in really challenging moments, and I've led hundreds of workshops and retreats designed to empower couples and individuals to succeed.

What is meaningful and important to you? This is different for everyone and can change for anyone in a given day. My approach to therapy is guided by the things you hold as valuable, and what they mean for you; all while using a trauma-informed and queer affirming framework. I strive to provide a safe space without judgment. I have worked with people of all ages who have survived trauma & I also have experience working with LGBTQ+ folks in health related issues, coming out, violent experiences, internalized homophobia/transphobia, transitioning, adverse military experiences, & building resilience, etc.

Working on oneself may come as a challenge, an obstacle that may stand in the way of you becoming a better version of who you would like to be. Are you having trouble adjusting to changes in your life, such as anxiety, anger issues, difficult events, depression or some form of trauma? Therapy can be useful in helping individuals manage those stressors, and improve relationships with significant others, family members, and most importantly self. It may seem difficult to acknowledge what you're going through mentally, but the first step is knowing that you want to be that better you in every sense.

You've heard the saying "walk a mile in someone else's shoes", right? I have walked a lot of miles in a lot of shoes. These life experiences have taught me patience, understanding and empathy. Experience and familiarity in alternative relationships, kink, the treatment of substance use disorder and veteran's and first responder issues. Open to working with any adolescent or adult motivated to change, and I come from a judgement-free perspective.

Aiming to thrive and not solely survive? Despite our adverse experiences or current circumstances, we can find ourselves wanting to find more meaning in life.

Our hope is that through this process you find your true self and are courageous enough to embrace and live out your most authentic life!
