DAVE DRAXTON, MA, LPC, PC

I am an open minded therapist who is person-centered and trauma-informed. I have extensive experience in treating PTSD, anxiety, anger, and relationship issues with individual clients. Processing "triggers"in your relationships can help you to achieve emotional self-control and less reactivity to people in your life. You gain more freedom to be who you are and to have more light-hearted experiences. Communication and conflict resolution skills can add to your ability to stay on your intended course and to reach your goals.

I am a gentle, yet direct Licensed Professional Counselor who enjoys engaging clients in their growth and awakening process. I am open to people of all spiritual and cultural backgrounds. I like working with individuals who are discovering their own path in life, without adding my own beliefs. I use a range of therapies, depending on your needs. For traumatic experiences I use EMDR and CPT to lower the emotional impact and to see yourself and others in more positive ways. I use cognitive-behavioral therapy for managing anger, anxiety, and depression. Family communication skills are useful with getting closer and more clear in those relationships.
