Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I have been working in the mental health field for the last 33 years in which I have experience in several different genres of clientele. I have worked in both inpatient care and outpatient services. These services have included family systems, individual and family counseling, domestic violence, chemical addiction-gambling addictions, and severe mental health needs. Currently, I am serving in a correctional setting with incarcerated offenders with a specialized program for Juveniles Convicted as Adults Program assisting the offender to transfer from a correctional setting after serving at least 25 years of their sentence.
To assist those to understand my clinical approach to counseling, I take a client-centered, solution-focused approached to counseling. By using both cognitive-behavioral and logotherapy techniques, I assist those who chose to engage in therapy to understand the drivers to their behaviors and addressing purpose and meaning in their lives.
To understand Logotherapy, it is a school of psychology and a philosophy based on the idea that we are strongly motivated to live purposefully and meaningfully, and that we find meaning in life as a result of responding authentically and humanely (i.e. meaningfully) to life’s challenges. By using Logotherapy and understanding our belief systems we can better understand how we can make changes to our thoughts, feelings, and actions.

Logotherapy, which he uses alongside other methods, is a school of psychology and a philosophy that emphasizes the human motivation to live purposefully and meaningfully.

Many people ask whether remote therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person treatment.
One major benefit is flexibility – clients can connect in the format that best suits them, whether by video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to fit mental health care into busy schedules and to engage in therapy from different locations.
Licensed professionals provide these services, and clients have the option to change therapists if they decide a different fit would be better. For many people, online therapy offers an accessible, effective way to address everyday mental health concerns and relationship challenges while maintaining continuity of care.
