Steven also addresses relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, grief, ADHD, and a wide range of mood-related concerns.

Steven draws from client-centered and cognitive-behavioral methods in a straightforward way. He helps people notice thought patterns and links between thinking and daily habits. He supports learning practical coping skills and increasing awareness of emotions and mental reactions.

His background includes work in community mental health and crisis services, where he performed evaluations in community settings and emergency rooms. He has experience with substance-use issues, self-harm, and mood and personality concerns. He also has familiarity with military and veteran issues from prior service in the United States Marine Corps.

Sessions focus on clear goals, using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness strategies when helpful. Steven uses a person-centered style that centers the client's goals and strengths while applying these methods to daily life challenges.

He received a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Virginia Commonwealth University and a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Liberty University.

How his approaches fit with online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking action toward them while accepting uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. It can help with persistent anger, avoidance, and motivation problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anger, anxiety, and mood issues. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to notice emotions and bodily responses without reacting. These skills support better moment-to-moment choices when feeling provoked.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to see which methods match their goals, problems, and preferences. That assessment may lead to using one method more heavily or blending techniques from ACT, CBT, DBT, and mindfulness based on what helps in practice.

Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. When arranged, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life - for example a shorter check-in during a work break, not needing to travel, or using audio-only when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and mindfulness exercises for remote sessions so work continues between meetings.
