Veterans Therapists in 27611

I am a Black, male therapist originally from Columbus, OH. and now living in Raleigh, NC. I find it a great honor counseling with clients who are just dealing with life's many transitions to doing therapy with those clients that are facing challenging diagnosable mental health issues. I mainly utilize therapeutic techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (e.g. Ellis’s ABC model, thought journaling, cognitive restructuring, etc.) but I also use techniques from Solution Focused Therapy, EFT, DBT and Multisystemic Therapy. I have found that I prefer a person-centered approach, though I will still use goals, contracts and homework.

I will help you understand and overcome barriers and challenges as we foster opportunities for options and possibilities. I look forward to working with you through an interactive and dynamic partnership driven by your needs and dreams, motivation, commitment, strengths, and goals. I provide a supportive, caring, non-judgmental, responsive approach to a therapeutic relationship based on trust and collaboration. I have over 25 years experience empowering people in the development, utilization, and enhancement of coping skills long after completion of therapeutic services. Therapy is tailored to each client or family's unique needs, goals, and strengths. Saturday and evening availability.

Accepting clients located in Tennessee, North Carolina, Mississippi, and Minnesota. I feel honored to work with clients and to hear the experiences that bring them into therapy. Those with whom I work will most often hear me say “You are the expert of you;” I say this out of my aim to work collaboratively and to help them remain empowered during their journey to healing. I love aiding clients in healing past relationships and traumas, owning their identities, and feeling empowered to live in a place of power, connection, and authenticity.
