About me

The decision to reach out to a therapist may be a difficult one but is viewed as a strength. Not knowing the answers to all your life questions is normal. Whatever your reason for seeking therapy, I will listen to your concerns and help you decide upon the most appropriate course of action.

My compassionate, firm approach helps most patients lead more happy and productive lives. I do not help you make excuses and will not recommend therapy indefinitely. I do not believe in endless therapy that costs you a fortune. I genuinely care for every patient. My record of integrity & responsibility speaks for itself.

Often, people choose therapy during times of stress and emotional pain. It may also be when you want to grow . The decision to seek therapy is a very personal decision. I'm experienced in treating an array of issues & disorders, including, but not limited to: · Addictions (Substance and Process) · Major Depression Disorder · Adult Children of Alcoholics · Men's Issues · Military/Veterans · Anxiety Disorders · Mood Disorder · Bipolar Disorder · Panic Disorders - Co-dependence · Personal Growth · Crisis/Trauma Recovery · Schizoaffective Disorder · Dually Diagnosed Individuals · Schizophrenia · Ex-offenders · Self-Esteem · Grief/Loss Counseling · Spirituality · Impaired Professionals · Stress Management · Life Events/Transitions · Substance Abuse/Dependence

Peter is amazing at helping me see and work on things that I usually don’t pay attention to. He gives me so much confidence on how to be a better person and makes me feel good about the changes I’ve been practicing to make.
