I view therapy as a collaborative process where clients are invited to make sense of their experiences in a way that feels authentic to them. Rather than directing the process, I focus on creating a supportive environment where individuals can speak openly, reflect at their own pace, and gain insight into their thoughts and emotions. In the midst of busy and often overwhelming daily life, having intentional time to pause and look inward can be a powerful part of personal growth.
Creating room for reflection can open the door to new perspectives and a deeper awareness of internal experiences. As clients begin to better understand their emotional responses and patterns, they often find greater clarity in how they relate to themselves and others. This increased awareness can support more intentional decision-making and help guide the next steps in their personal growth.
I love counseling – both giving and receiving. For over 40 years, I have helped adoptive families utilizing my law and counseling degrees.
The counseling aspect spans a wide range of populations, including tweens, seniors, singles, couples, and multiple family members.
I met my wife at graduate school while working on my Master’s in Social Work, and we have since adopted three children.
I have had the privilege of working as an individual and group therapist in numerous therapeutic settings. These experiences have allowed me to utilize various treatment modalities in order to empower the individuals I work with.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Jamaica
Searching for therapists in Jamaica starts with knowing what kind of support you want from therapy. Some people look for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or work stress. Others may want a therapist with experience in a specific approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy. Reading each therapist’s profile can help you see their listed specialties, therapy style, and what a first session may be like.
In Jamaica and nearby Queens neighborhoods, in-person appointment options may depend on office location, transit access, and schedule fit. Virtual therapy can expand your options if local appointment times are limited or if it fits better with your calendar. As you compare therapists, look at whether they are accepting new patients, offer appointment times that work for you, and provide a free phone consultation. A therapist’s bio can also give you a clearer sense of how they communicate and who they commonly support.
Therapy in Jamaica can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is a reliable way to reduce session costs and see your estimated cost before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, take your insurance, and are accepting new patients, so you can review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
