I typically work with adult clients who are navigating trauma / PTSD, anxiety, depression, or other critical incidents. As an attachment focused, EMDR trained, Polyvagal informed counselor, my goal is to assist you in developing new skills and thinking to better manage and resolve challenging situations. For over 25 years, I have worked as a counselor in the Central Florida area, being a licensed mental health counselor as well as being a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor and trained in Critical Incident Stress Management.My therapy approach has as its foundation an understanding of the importance of security of attachment, which can be described as a kind of connection with important people in our lives. Patterns of connecting get repeated again and again over the course of our lifetime, profoundly affecting our experiences of ourselves and others.Stuart is a solo practitioner with no administrative staff.
