About Me
I am a graduate of Columbia International University with an MA in clinical mental health counseling. I live in Lexington with my wife, Gabby, and our four pets. During my time in school, I have been teaching private music lessons to people of all ages, and I have enjoyed interacting with different people in different stages of life. My wife and I are actively involved at Midtown Fellowship Church in Lexington, SC.
My approach to therapy would be to utilize different techniques from well researched and widely utilized models. My desire is to create a safe and assuring therapeutic relationship in which the client feels confident to be themselves in order to work together to achieve their therapeutic goals and facilitate and appropriate change. My goals for professional development include attaining a certification in play therapy and further certification in REBT and CBT.
