Overview

Hello! My name is Stephen. I am a mental health counselor with experience since 2016. I completed my BA in Psychology in 2014 and my MA in Psychology in 2019 at Brandman University. My therapy style combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and a person-centered approach. I focus on building rapport and creating a safe space for individuals to process experiences, identify unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, and reframe them. I specialize in anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other mental health issues. I can also offer a Biblical-based perspective if desired.



As a Navy veteran, I have traveled the world and appreciate different cultures, foods, and ways of life. After serving 14 years in the Navy, I transitioned back to civilian life in 2012 and pursued my passion for psychology. I have recently relocated to the Florida Panhandle where I enjoy spending time with family and friends, fishing, and gardening.
