About me

Hello,

I've been a professional counselor for over 27 years working with couples , families , blended families and extended families in finding ways to improve communication , understanding and in many cases renew a greater level of intimacy and marital satisfaction. Having worked for nearly a decade with active military families on active duty around the country serving in combat theaters around the world I have gained a tremendous amount of valuable experience in the areas of Marital stress, fear of loss, extended absenteeism and infidelity. On the civilian side, I have worked for over 20 years with professional families and couples at some of the most innovative sites in the country, spending twelve years as the senior EAP and employee crisis counselor at the National Institutes of Health. Helping people repair, strengthen or resolve relationship difficulties has been some of the most rewarding work I have had the pleasure of experiencing and I look forward to making that experience available to you

Craig has been amazing at working with our needs and concerns and even after a few sessions, my and my husband's communication has been so much better and we haven't had any fights in quite some time. We can't recommend him enough.

Only two sessions in but he’s great!

Written on Jun 26, 2019 after therapy with Craig for 2 weeks on issues concerning relationship

Craig really tailors his expertise to his individual clients. He’s an exemplary active listener. Furthermore, his personal anecdotes are treasures in themselves: Craig has worlds of experience in different fields, which propels his ability to make personable and empathetic connections. Craig is solution and big picture oriented. More therapists should be like Craig- we all deserve an end game, not in the interest of perpetual treatment. Craig really cares, and I’m lucky he is my therapist.

Craig is an awesome counselor. He has much knowledge and loves sharing from his heart and I truly believe he cares for his clients and tries to get on a personable level with them.

Written on Feb 04, 2019 after therapy with Craig for 2 weeks on issues concerning relationship

Craig has been an amazing support to my husband and I. He's understood in the first message what it was that we needed and is allowing us both the room to learn how to communicate with each other better. I would highly recommend working with Craig. He's very personable and for anyone cautious of therapy because of a fear of superiority from their counselor you will not find that in Craig.

Work with me!
