Hi, I’m Scotty! It is my goal to join with you and guide both of us in growth through the power of the therapeutic relationship. Although I describe my therapeutic approach as eclectic, I lean heavily toward Relational-Cultural Theory. I believe that people grow in relationships that exhibit mutual empathy and empowerment. I have particular interest in the effects of trauma on an individual’s mental and physical health and methods in which those effects can be mitigated.

Solution-Focused Therapy is an integral part of my practice as well. SFT is a solution-focused, future-oriented form of therapy that focuses on your strengths as a way to reach your goals. In this paradigm, you, the client, are viewed as the expert on your life.

I have worked in the field of mental health for nearly 30 years. My clients have come from all age groups, educational levels, and socioeconomic statuses. I have worked with clients in community mental health, prison, long-term care, and hospice. I hold a Masters of Arts in Psychology from Marshall University and a Masters in Social Work from the University of New England.

In my free time, I enjoy reading post-apocalyptic and dystopian fiction. When I’m not reading, I spend hours enjoying nature in the Appalachian Mountains along with my Great Pyrenees, Ghost.

If you've been putting off therapy — telling yourself you'll handle it on your own, or that it's not for you — you're exactly who I'm glad to work with. I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with 22 years of experience, and I help adults get to the root of what's actually going on and do something about it. Whether it's anxiety, depression, anger that's costing you, the weight of past trauma, stress that won't let up, or questions about identity and who you are, I'll meet you head-on and help you build a real way forward.

I work with a lot of men and people from diverse backgrounds who want a therapist they can be straight with — someone direct, who respects your time and helps you see results, not just talk in circles. That's the work I'm built for.

I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of the Cumberlands and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Human Services. I have multiple years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults across a variety of mental health and substance use concerns. I believe therapy should be a place where you can show up as your whole self. You don’t have to have everything figured out—we can start where you are and work together to discover what comes next.

Your story isn’t finished yet.

You may be feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, especially if you’ve experienced trauma, toxic relationships, or emotional pain that keeps resurfacing. It can feel overwhelming trying to move forward while still carrying the weight of the past. You don’t have to do this alone. I provide a supportive space where you can begin to understand your story, break free from old patterns, and move toward a more peaceful, meaningful, and purpose-driven life.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is passionate about working with women and children, providing a compassionate and supportive space to navigate emotional challenges, build coping skills, and foster growth. My approach blends warmth with a multitude of practices to meet each client where they are. I believe every individual brings unique strengths, experiences, and hopes into therapy, and that growth can look different for everyone, from finding small moments of joy to navigating life’s most difficult losses.

My goal is to help you reconnect with yourself, recognize your potential, and move forward with greater clarity and compassion. Even in challenging seasons, I believe there is always space for hope, healing, and possibility.
