Find a Therapist in Laurel, Florida.

I am committed to client empowerment and self-enhancement and I value the importance of the therapeutic alliance which highly correlates with positive therapeutic outcome. I do not take your choosing me to join you on your journey lightly and I will meet you where you are with empathy and non-judgment, realness and genuineness. We will work together to establish therapeutic goals and offer reciprocal feedback. The therapeutic process is not solely about addressing problems, it should also help to enhance and maintain skills necessary to help you function effectively in life as you are better able to think clearer, feel better and live freer.

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.

As licensed psychotherapists, we provide a safe and supportive therapeutic environment for helping our clients to process emotions, traumas, and explore their personal experiences to gain insight and make progress toward their goals. Processing your experiences in psychotherapy has many benefits, including lessening undesirable symptoms, increasing positive emotions, improving outlook on life and helping you to understand yourself and your life better. We will utilize psychotherapy techniques tailored to your specific needs to assist you in getting closer to where you would like to be.

Coming to therapy can be scary and overwhelming. There is still a stigma attached to getting mental health treatment. Opening yourself up to a stranger or someone you recently met can make people feel vulnerable and exposed. I treat each person I see as a unique human being with their own struggle(s) preventing them from being who they want to be. I utilize different techniques with everyone to help them feel at peace and feel internal and external safety. This helps them act intentionally in their daily lives.

Through my master’s level classes in counseling, I’m trained to support my clients through a broad range of issues. So whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, relationship conflict, life transition, parenting challenges, stress, or career challenges, I would be happy to help.
