Scott Boyd, MA, Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Addiction Counselor

Most likely, you’re not looking for a therapist because you feel so awesome, you want to pay someone to talk about it. I know that certainly wasn’t the case for me -- I first sought therapy because I was in a ton of pain (and not the physical kind). If that sounds familiar, first off, welcome. Second, although suffering is painful, sometimes it is the catalyst that can motivate us to make the positive changes necessary to move forward. Although it might be external circumstances that caused you to start looking for a counselor, I believe it is the internal work that sets us free, and that we all have the capacity to be truly happy. My aim as a therapist is to help you get rid of the parts of you that are standing in the way of this. I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC), certified addictions specialist, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) trained, emotionally focused therapy (EFT) trained, and Desensitization of Triggers and Urge Reprocessing (DeTUR), an EMDR protocol used in addiction treatment.
