As a psychotherapist, I will provide a warm and safe environment. I believe that we can work together as a team in order to overcome whatever issues you might be experiencing, as well as move forward as we progress through these changes. I follow a client-centered and integrative approach, including psychodynamic. The best course of action to take for treatment will be determined depending on your presenting issues. I primarily work with children, adolescents, and adults specializing in anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationships, life transitions, and behavioral concerns. Again, congratulations on taking the first step towards making a difference in your life. It takes a lot of strength and courage to reach out for help, so I’m glad that I can be here for you during these difficult times and extend a helping hand. I look forward to working with you and making progress towards a better future! [Read More]

Growing up fatherless is a struggle far too many of our young boys face today. Angry, resentful, confused, uncertain and often unmotivated, many young men just plainly need someone to talk to, relate with, and help them deal with their “STUCK” point. I focus on how to deal with internal/external conflict, while understanding that you can have a self-fulfilling life. Odis Bellinger has completed extensive research on conflict resolution, violence prevention and socio-economic issues affecting primarily African-American males. He conducts trainings focusing primarily on building African American male developement. He has been recognized locally/nationally for his research, and strategies for young MALE SUCCESS. If you have a young male age 8-18 or know a man 18- up who need guidance from a passionate and empathetic counselor who is a “graduate” of many of the issues that our males face today, then please consider Odis Bellinger MA,LLPC. Thanks for your consideration. [Read More]
