About
Jeffrey
Hello, my name is Jeffrey. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist with over 18 years of experience in community counseling, including the past ten years working with college students at Temple University, the University of San Diego, and NC State University.
My approach is compassionate, supportive, and nonjudgmental. I incorporate brief, solution-focused therapy and harm reduction principles to help individuals recognize their strengths, navigate challenges, and make meaningful, healthier changes.
My goal is to create a welcoming environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout your mental health and recovery journey.
I am originally from California and have had the opportunity to call several places home, including Denver, Colorado, and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I currently reside in the Raleigh, North Carolina area. Living in different parts of the country has allowed me to experience diverse communities, meet people from different backgrounds, and gain new perspectives. Outside of work, I enjoy spending quality time with my family, coaching youth sports, and refereeing soccer. I also enjoy listening to audiobooks, playing board games, hiking, and cycling. I enjoy challenging myself to learn new things and am currently developing my chess skills, with the goal of eventually being able to hold my own against my kids! I enjoy staying active, spending time with family, and finding new ways to challenge myself and grow.
