About me

I have 30 years experience as a counselor. I have worked in many different environments including, private practice, local mental health clinics, inpatient mental health and substance abuse clinics.
I work with people to help them be the person they are and become the person they want to be.
I am a real bearded Santa but am not religious. I related to the natural world in a way that I describe as spiritual, although it may not be what most people consider to be spiritual
I served in the US Army both active duty and National Guard. I am a Vietnam Veteran with a total of 23 years service. I was a MFLC and worked with active duty soldiers and airmen for several years mostly at Fort Bragg but other facilities as well.

I am married, have four children and eight grandchildren.

Preston is the best therapist I have had in all the years I’ve sought out help. He has this incredible ability to help you open up without it being an interrogation. In the last few months I have felt that I am able to focus and have conversations without getting overwhelmed or having anxiety. He’s helped me build my confidence and taught me that I AM IMPORTANT.

I’ve been on Better Help for a couple of months and my therapist has given me resources as well as the confidence to rebuild my self image. I’ve also joined in on some support groups. Sharing my feeling a and experienced and being able to relate to others has really helped me build compassion for myself and others. Now I feel more in control of the situations in my life and I feel like I can handle them with care instead of acting impulsively. Thank you Better Help, and thank you Preston Page. Keep up the great work!

Preston is a very good listener as well as a person with the talents to u see stand and to guide someone to the right path to heal. The way he just has a conversation with me makes it so much easier to get what I need to say out. He is awesome!!!
