Scott is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, with five years of experience.
Scott focuses on practical steps that fit into daily life. Sessions look at what is getting in the way - thoughts, habits, or relationships - and try things that reduce distress right away.
Background and approach
He uses techniques that help people notice what matters most, change unhelpful thinking, and process hard memories when needed. He pays attention to common life pressures like caregiving strain, career stress, and compassion fatigue. Scott also addresses issues such as panic attacks, social anxiety, and the emotional impact of assault or abuse.
He works with people who want support with grief, anger, or rebuilding self-esteem. Scott brings together short-term strategies and deeper exploration of life purpose and meaning. He invites clients to set clear, doable goals and practices between sessions to build steady progress.
The work is collaborative - the client guides pace and focus. Based in Georgia, Scott accepts clients from other places as well. Sessions are offered in English, and he adapts approach and pace to each person’s needs and preferences.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take small steps toward what matters. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, and finding direction during life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like panic attacks, social anxiety, and low mood. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, supports processing traumatic memories through structured phases that reduce the emotional intensity of past events and related triggers.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Scott collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. He checks in and adjusts the plan as progress is made so therapy stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter conversation is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for timely check-ins, brief coaching, or when writing feels more comfortable than talking. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and keep momentum between visits.
