A Decade of Faith Based Mental Health Care Experience

He focuses on addressing symptoms related to traumatic experiences. In sessions, he works alongside clients to explore hard issues like grief and abuse.

Eclectic Therapeutic Techniques to Meet Your Needs
I’m impressed by the eclectic blend of attachment and evidence based therapeutic approaches he uses, all tailored to support individual goals and unique needs. Along with Christian counseling on request, he employs cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT).
Nicholas also uses the Gottman method for couples and internal family systems (IFS) techniques for families who are experiencing conflict.
