After 20+ years of helping minority/mixed couples, it comes down to the three "C's": Communication, Conflict, and Confidence (Trust). With over 30 years of marriage, I understand the challenges of maintaining an intimate minority relationship. So much so, my latest book is called "Mixed to Match," a book and workbook that focuses on interracial and minority relationships. I personally champion affordable and high-quality mental health care. My session rate starts at $99 (Most are $100+). I am available most Evenings and only doing virtual sessions at this time. My ultimate goal is to empower you with the appropriate coping skills to help you with your personal and relational issues.
I counsel individuals and also teach counseling at UALR. I have had a counseling practice in the United Kingdom addressing a variety of clinical issues and am currently a Licensed Professional Counselor in Nevada/Texas/Florida & Arkansas.
My mother is English and my father is African American. My wife is of Puerto Rican decent which makes life very colorful. I have visited or lived in over 20+ countries which makes me well versed with different cultures. Note: Session could be free, check with your H.R.. I am with all the major EAP counseling services with New Directions and Compsych in NV, TX FL and AR. I accept Cigna, Optum/Empire and Aetna in AR, TX , FL and NV.
