About John
I am a doctoral level licensed mental health counselor in Florida with over 10 years of experience working as a therapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, addiction issues and ADHD. I have also helped many people who have felt lost and wanted to better understand themselves.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines a sense of humor with cognitive-behavioral, client centered, motivational interviewing, solution focused and cognitive behavioral therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life, and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!
