Find a Therapist in Eustis, Florida.

Psychotherapy addresses mental and emotional issues without the use of medication. Using an integrative holistic approach, we will address the whole person, physically, mentally and spiritually. My approach will be tailored to your specific needs. Having 20 years of experience, I can use a variety of approaches to get to the root causes and get you on the road to healing.

Psychotherapy is designed to help you identify past issues that are currently effecting your life. Once you get to the root of the problem you can resolve it and move on in an emotionally healthy way. While this is an excellent option for some people, not all issues will require this form of intense long term work. So I recommend discussing your issues, goals, & options with your therapist to determine which approach will best meet your needs. If psychotherapy is needed I am happy to work with you for as long as it takes to reach your goal. For best results I also recommend meeting a potential therapist for a few sessions to make sure you feel comfortable and work well together.

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. By examining your own history, you can change your life in a positive way going forward. It's almost impossible to see yourself- let me hold up a mirror and help you understand yourself and your world better.

Are you uncertain as to what kind of therapy you want? Not sure as to what sort of therapist will help you the most? I can help you answer these questions. As a highly trained clinical psychologist, I am here to help you find the help you need. And whether our work is short or long term, together we can bring you that much closer to the support you deserve.

I believe that each client has a unique and sacred story. As a result, I also understand and appreciate the reality that psychotherapy cannot always be offered with one approach incorporated. Instead, I integrate a variety of approaches and modalities that work with one another to create an approach that is as unique as you while grounded in evidenced based practice and the latest research.

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. However, my passion is helping stressed out men to overcome their barriers, bad-habits, and insecurities to experience healing and breakthrough. I do so using my training in counseling, my experience in ministry, and my expertise as a trained addiction coach. At Lion Counseling, our mission is to help you escape the cages that hold you back and become the lion God created you to be.

My approach to therapy is not a quick fix or a band-aid approach. It is not self-help advice or executive coaching. It is a process of research-proven, emotional surgery that gets at the heart of your issues and heals them at their source. If you’re like many of my clients, you’ve conquered in the workplace and found success. And yet, you’re not at peace with your life. Whether it’s stress, trauma, addiction, strained relationships, or a lack of motivation, something needs to change. Often, my role is to help successful men get their hearts back. I can help you rediscover your purpose, reconnect with what matters, heal your insecurities, improve your relationships, and leave a legacy.

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.

I provide psychotherapy to children, adolescents, and adults. I employ a variety of approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based approaches, lifestyle changes, and psychoeducation to help people dealing with issues including attention issues, anxiety issues, relationship issues, family issues, depression and other mood issues, and trauma issues.

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.
