Find a Therapist in New Port Richey, FL

Hello, I'm Joe! I specialize in ADHD, Anxiety, and Depression- help with overwhelm, feeling stuck, and improving focus, (Neurodivergent and LGBTQ friendly). “And how do you feel about that?” - Says every TV Show ever. I prefer therapy to be more like a conversation than an interrogation! From personal experience, I know that mixing anxiety with opening up to a stranger isn’t exactly anyone’s idea of fun. That’s exactly what it felt like the first time I went to my own therapy . Trust me I'm chill! My goal is to make this process as relaxed and low-pressure as possible. “I want things to be different, but I don’t know where to start.” Whether you are constantly overwhelmed, feel like you can't focus, or just want life to be less crappy- I'd be honored to walk with you. I know how intimidating starting therapy can be, (I avoided it way too long myself). But I hope you give it a try. Check out my website to schedule with me or have a free consultation call!

I believe that an enduring solution to any problem begins with a thorough understanding of its components. For this reason I use a holistic approach to both diagnosis and treatment. This begins with an initial evaluation in which I take the time to openly listen to the details of your personal history and mental health concerns. I develop a comprehensive biopsychosocial profile for each patient that can be used to inform subsequent care. I offer a refreshingly compassionate and personalized treatment experience and do my best to always empower you with knowledge about your diagnosis and therapeutic options. I draw from a variety of different therapeutic modalities and disciplines of knowledge when recommending options to address your symptoms and their underlying causes. Together we will consider your current difficulties, history, needs, and goals to craft a plan of care that makes sense to you and maximizes your mind’s and body’s natural healing potential.

Trauma may have changed you in ways others can’t see—but it doesn’t define who you are. It can leave you feeling disconnected, confused, stuck, and unsure of yourself. It can ruin relationships, families and your sense of self. I have spent over a decade specializing in trauma as well as individuals in high risk professions such as health-care workers, first responder and Veterans. I know that healing is possible. If you're searching for trauma therapy near me or a PTSD specialist with advanced training, I can help. I am a clinical consultant and trainer in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Prolonged Exposure (PE), and I also offer EMDR to support nervous-system healing. My practice is LGBTQ+ affirming, inclusive, and trauma-informed. In therapy, we work together to understand how trauma has shaped your emotions, relationships, and nervous system. My approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and compassionate. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can rebuild trust in yourself, feel grounded again, and move toward the life you want. If you are searching for a "therapist near me," you are in the right place.
