GET TO KNOW OUR COUNSELORS

Hello, my name is Aaron.  I am a counselor in training working towards licensure under the supervision of Terri Roman LPC. I have completed my graduate course work in Clinical Mental Health. My counseling theory falls under the umbrella of Cognitive Behavioral Therapies. I am passionate about empathy and discovering ways to incorporate it in everyday life.  I am dedicated to understanding the causes of depressive symptoms and how I can teach mechanisms to relieve them. My education has furthered my interest in obsessive compulsive disorders, mainly intrusive thoughts, trauma and crisis related events, particularly those that struggle with faith and fear. Below is a quote that embodies my philosophy: 

“It’s time you realized that you have something in you more powerful and miraculous than the things that affect you and make you dance like a puppet.” – Marcus Aurelius

A little about my personal life: I am family man. I am a dedicated husband and love my wife who has supported me throughout my education. My greatest joy of all is being a father to our 2 little girls. I believe in creating memories over buying things. I believe it’s not what you are doing but who you are doing it with that makes life worth living.
