About me

I have been practicing professional counseling since 1991. I am a licensed mental health counselor, and my license is from Florida. Much of my work has been trauma-related. As such I have worked not only with individuals who have experienced trauma, but also with their loved ones (spouse, family) so that all understand the dynamics related to trauma. For some trauma-sufferers, substance misuse has become a way of coping with the intrusive thoughts and feelings. I can help with substance misuse, also. My counseling framework/practice includes family-systems interactional, with cognitive-behavioral, transtheoretical (the Stage of Change model), solution-focused, and humanistic-existential. components I believe we all have four majors components to our lives: biological, psychological, social, and spiritual. All of this occurs within a family-systems dynamic or setting. Not every family-systems setting is the same, which requires me to take the time to understand your unique situation. To that end, effective counseling addresses all four areas through a systems-focus, though not all at the same time.

Dr. Wilcox did a great job of acting as a neutral party and helping us get insights into each other's behaviors and finding ways to avoid conflict and communicate in productive ways. Very responsive and compassionate.

I feel comfortable expressing myself to Dr. Wilcox. He has provided my husband and me with tools to better our communication and problem solving in a life changing way. We truly appreciate the way he has helped our marriage and we've been able to hear each other in a different light to have the hard conversations without hesitation.

Dr. Wilcox is a very calming presence, compassionate and non-judgmental in his listening. I have had a few different therapists in the past and even tho I began to work with him only recently I already feel he is the most understanding and best suited to support me with my concerns around relationship, communication and general well-being.
