About

I am a Black, male therapist originally from Columbus, OH. and now living in Raleigh, NC. I find it a great honor counseling with clients who are just dealing with life's many transitions to doing therapy with those clients that are facing challenging diagnosable mental health issues. I mainly utilize therapeutic techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (e.g. Ellis’s ABC model, thought journaling, cognitive restructuring, etc.) but I also use techniques from Solution Focused Therapy, EFT, DBT and Multisystemic Therapy. I have found that I prefer a person-centered approach, though I will still use goals, contracts and homework.

I earned my M.Ed in Counselor Education (1992) from NC State University. I hold Supervisor (LCMHCS) license #S4423, Licensed Professional Counselor (LCMHC) license #4423, National Certified Counselor (NCC) Certificate #76069, and School Counselor license. I have been working with children, adults, couples and families for over 28 years.

Through working with families, couples and children as a school counselor and therapist, I believe strongly in the encouragement of client’s strengths, and in making a plan for action, then following through with that plan to success. I believe people strive to be congruent and to be fully functioning. People want to be the person they want to be.
