Find a Therapist in Punta Gorda, Florida.

In psychotherapy, you have my full attention to learn how to find the solutions within yourself. I will assist you in becoming the person you want to be and help you cope with life's struggles. I will provide a warm and empathetic atmosphere for you to be open with your feelings so that you can be empowered to reach your goals. We will take this journey together.

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.

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.

What is your dream state like, are you having troubling dreams? Where is happiness at, why are you not content? What lies have you come to believe? Who told you that and why do you believe it to be true? Why do you face the same giants in your life over and over again? Why did you react like that, what did you hear them say? Do you feel estranged from others? How do you fit in and why? My approach is not only to explore what may be hidden in the subconscious, but to find correlations between interactions both with intimate relationships and casuals ones. I use questions as a probe and analysis as the lens to bring about inner knowledge and healing.

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.

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.

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.
