With eight years of experience and licenses as an LCSW and LISW-CP, he brings clinical knowledge and everyday practicality together. His background supports help for people navigating life changes, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and sexual diversity concerns. Sessions are offered in English and conducted from his South Carolina practice.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships affect current patterns. It looks at how people form bonds and how those patterns show up in stress, codependency, and intimacy concerns. This approach helps people name repeating patterns and try new ways of relating.Client-centered therapy centers the person’s experience and goals. Sessions follow the client's pace and priorities, with the therapist listening, reflecting, and supporting self-directed change. It is useful for building confidence and clarifying values when facing life changes or identity questions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match goals, needs, and comfort. That may mean combining attachment ideas, client-centered listening, and cognitive-behavioral or mindfulness skills to address symptoms and everyday challenges.
Check the session options before booking to confirm current online formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also supports working on practical skills like emotion regulation, communication, and grounding exercises within a person’s normal routine.
