A tremendous value-add to having me as your psychotherapist is based on what I term my contextual approach. In short, I see every client as unique. Hence, my therapeutic modalities are tailored specifically to individual client needs. I used all five broad-based categories in my psychotherapy namely: psychodynamic therapies, behavior therapy, cognitive therapy, humanistic therapy and integrative or holistic therapy. We believe rigidity in therapy significantly limits client results and often misses the whole picture. Other benefits include the incorporation of interpersonal and systematic approaches which combat self-defeating patterns and make allowances to firmly establish sound frameworks

I work with an entire person--the mind, emotions, body, spirit, relationships. I offer an alternative approach to traditional psychotherapy because sometimes we are stuck beyond our thoughts. I believe we are often stuck beyond how we think about something, but by how our body holds and remembers the experiences. After all, we feel the anxiety in our chest, shoulders or stomach. When we are depressed, we struggle to move, sleep, concentrate etc. I work to remove the block from wherever it is stuck. My clients come to me after years of ineffective therapy. They are looking for more than talking about their struggles or identifying how they think about them in favor of a change in living.

With a Master’s degree in counseling, I’m trained to treat a wide variety of common mental health issues like anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, grief, and relationship issues.

I do so using my training in counseling, my experience in ministry, and my expertise as a trained addiction coach.

In everyday life, we don't always get the chance to express how we are really feeling or share our struggles in an honest way.

Through this relational approach, you'll discover patterns you want to change, increase self-awareness and gain coping skills that work for you.

Therapy is the process of learning how to understand yourself, your motivations, and your relationships. I use the analogy that a therapist helps you in bringing all of your boxes out of storage, spreading the contents on the table, and making sense of it all. Therapy is not advice giving, but an investigation into the nuts and bolts of your decision making. It is my goal to empower you throughout this process, and to help you reclaim your strengths that have been buried by the junk of life.

Dr. Hobbie's goal in Psychotherapy is to help you overcome life's difficulties and cultivate a greater sense of personal well-being. He can provide guidance in dealing with troublesome behaviors and beliefs that interfere with living life fully.

Understanding how you view the world can carry immense benefits. I can help you learn how what happened to you may have negatively affected you, and how to understand how that has colored your viewpoint until now.

It's almost impossible to see yourself- let me hold up a mirror and help you understand yourself and your world better.
