Philosophy

I believe that the Bible contains all the information necessary to live a mentally healthy life. Unfortunately, the world has taught us many unhealthy "lies" about ourselves and about others. These lies are largely responsible for what we call "mental illness."

With God’s help, I encourage individuals to identify their faulty beliefs and replace them with biblical truths. Ultimately, I believe that the "truth will set you free."

Many psychological problems have an underlying biological basis. In the case of serious psychological disorders, I am not opposed to the use of medication. I make referrals to medical specialists when appropriate.

I attend Northland Community Church, a nondenominational Christian church located in Longwood, Florida. I am a "born again" Christian who seeks God’s will in all that I do.
