Scott is particularly skilled in working with troubled teens and young adults navigating critical life transitions, identity formation, and behavioral challenges. He has a strong track record supporting individuals struggling with addiction, and he brings compassion and clarity to his work with clients dealing with substance use, compulsive behaviors, and co-occurring mental health concerns. His clinical focus includes helping clients examine thinking errors, build emotional regulation skills, and restore self-efficacy and motivation for change.

Families in crisis often find in Scott a steady and understanding guide. Whether helping parents reconnect with their teens or assisting families struggling with addiction-related disruptions, he values open communication, realistic goal setting, and systems-focused interventions that foster lasting change. Scott’s therapeutic approach is grounded in cognitive-behavioral and motivational enhancement frameworks, and he strives to help each client grow toward their own version of a meaningful life.

Outside of session, Scott is an avid reader and thinker who enjoys studying philosophy, history, and systems theory. He also finds balance and creativity through gaming and interactive storytelling. These interests deepen his empathy and allow him to connect authentically with clients who may feel alienated or misunderstood.
