My Approach to Helping
If you are currently looking at my profile, there is a specific reason that you are here. I will start by saying that I am encouraged by you because taking the first steps to seeking therapy is oftentimes the hardest part. That being said, the honest point that I want to make to you before you continue to read my bio is that I may not be the best fit for you- and that is perfectly okay. If you become interested in meeting me or seeing if I would make a good fit, there is no pressure to continue and I will help you find the best therapist for your needs. However, I'm a very chill and easy going guy who gets along with most people, so in most cases my clients and I develop pretty great relationships. Now, let's continue:
I am an Associate Licensed Counselor who completed a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Troy University. My journey has been shaped by various life experiences and the transformative impact individual counseling has had on my life over the years, sparking a deep passion for helping others in a similar fashion.
Whether working with individuals or couples, I provide therapy for a range of issues, including partner betrayal trauma, acute, chronic, and complex trauma, attachment disorders, relationship struggles, grief, depression, anxiety, and addiction. You can find me offering support both at the Mountain Brook office and online, aiming to create a safe and empathetic space. Additionally, I am currently working towards a military and first responder certification from Troy University.
My mission extends beyond just being a counselor—I aspire to build strong connections with my clients, walking alongside them through life's struggles to help them attain a more fulfilled life. In my downtime, I cherish moments with friends and family, indulge in activities like mountain biking and lacrosse, and have a genuine obsession with college and professional sports. I am also an active member at a local church in Birmingham.
