Waitlist for new clients
I am a former US Army chaplain and ordained rabbi trained in Marriage and Family Therapy with additional training in trauma recovery, post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms (PTSD). My experience embodies an integrative approach and I can individualize therapy to meet client goals. I work with individuals, couples, military personnel, veterans, and their families, and the LGBTQIA community. I am knowledgeable of world religions and diverse cultural backgrounds. I am currently accepting new clients in both the Pittsboro and Cary office. To schedule an appointment vist our website - migcounseling.com
I am EMDR trained and use it to aid in trauma recovery, addiction, and related issues. I am certified in CPT for PTSD, Traumatic Event Management, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Gottman levels 1 , 2 and 3, Solution Focused therapy and family systems. My integrative approach allows me to tailor a treatment plan to meet the goals and needs of my clients.
I feel that my experience allows me to connect and empathize with individuals and couples who might be dealing with the stress of marriage, military life and chronic illness, including depression and anxiety. I have worked with families dealing with palliative and hospice care, helping to reduce the stress and work through grief and related issues.
