Sunseeker Counseling Services
Travel can be great for the mind, but can be very difficult for consistency of healthcare. I offer telecounseling services for travelers who journey between Pennsylvania and Florida. I am licensed in each of these states, allowing ease of service no matter where and when you travel.
Men’s Issues
Celebrate being a man. Celebrate masculinity and the traits of manhood that make you a better person, and makes the world a better place by having you in it. Maybe you don’t know what those are, maybe you don’t have any good models for them, maybe you’ve experienced so many contradictory definitions of what being a “man” is that you have no idea where to start. I help men through challenging personal exploration. Together we can uncover and practice true, mature, healthy masculinity to face the variety of issues that are unique to men and bring you closer to your ideal self.
On Set Counseling
If you’re in production on a TV series, movie, or other digital media, I am available to support your production staff, cast, and crew throughout the process, confidentially, whether on location or online. I provide services such as Psychological Risk Assessments suited to your production needs, psychological first aid and crisis intervention, advising on how to stay psychologically safe and well during production, and safety debriefing after working on potentially traumatic scenes. Contact me to learn more about my on location services.
Sex
Sex is a wonderful, natural act that provides pleasure, health, and connection. Yet many people do not get the information they need to be fully satisfied with their sex life, to make good sex even better, or to address concerns that naturally occur across the lifespan. As a sex-positive counselor I am open, non-judgmental, and committed to continually learning about human sexuality and the spectrum of relationships. I know that sexual expressions and experiences are incredibly diverse. Regardless of how much or how little sex features in your life it should not be cause to avoid therapy for fear of being judged. I am a Kink Aware Professional with knowledge of lifestyles and practices.
Social Anxiety
Social anxiety is a fear of situations that involve interactions with others. It is one of the most commonly diagnosed problems in any population. I treat social anxiety in several ways including exposure to social situations, practicing social cues, developing competence in social interaction, and exploring in-depth the origins this problem.
Veterans
Military service members experience unique challenges across all areas of life. While service can bring honor and purpose, the extremes and transitions from military service can leave you with mental wounds and make it hard to cope. You may be called upon to capture an enemy position while people are trying their best to kill you. You may have to stay awake for fifty hours or more because that is what your mission requires. You may be removed from all the comforts of modern civilization for months at a time. All of your worldly possessions may fit inside of two duffel bags and a footlocker. You are ready to move halfway across the planet at any given time. The people you feel are the closest to you disappear due to deployments, transfers, or their end of time in service. Or you are the one who disappears, moving from place to place, unable to settle down or connect.
I help veterans and current service members adjust their mindsets and behaviors based on their specific needs and experiences. Whether you are experiencing the extremes of Traumatic Stress, or would just like to work on making your transitions easier, know that I am ready to help you.
I am a member of Veterans Counseling Veterans, a nonprofit dedicated to the goal of Taking Care of Our Own. VCV provides a place for military veterans and spouses of military veterans in the behavioral health profession to collaborate, share, and grow in the field of behavioral health.
