Clinical Social Worker / Therapist

Grantsboro, Jacksonville, + Telehealth for Kids and Adults

Todd has called New Bern, North Carolina home for over 12 years. He joined the United States Marine Corps in 1998 and proudly retired as a Master Sergeant in 2020 after 22 years of honorable service. While on active duty, he earned a Bachelor’s degree in Homeland Security from American Military University and a Master of Education in Teaching & Learning from Liberty University. Todd later completed his Master of Social Work (MSW) at Walden University in the spring of 2024 and is now a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate (LCSWA) in North Carolina.

 

Todd has faced struggles in life that he is grateful to have overcome. These lived experiences shaped his deep empathy and commitment to walking alongside others who are navigating life’s toughest challenges.

Todd believes that real change happens when people feel seen, heard, and understood—not judged. His clinical approach blends trauma-informed care with authenticity and collaboration. He brings not only academic knowledge but a level of understanding often missing in the therapy room. Todd's mission is to meet clients where they are, walk beside them on their journey, and help shoulder their burdens while learning and growing together.

​

Todd specializes in working with veterans, first responders, individuals with complex trauma, and those who may feel like traditional therapy hasn’t worked for them. He is LGBTQIA+ affirming and welcomes clients from all walks of life.
