Kevin J. Drab

Psychological or physical difficulties can often cause unbearable emotional, mental and behavioral distress in our lives. In such circumstances it is normal to feel "stuck," hopeless, and alone. Additionally, those close to us are frequently impacted by our condition, yet are unable to help. At such times the assistance of a caring, trained professional can be invaluable in providing you with the resources and solutions you need to gain a healthy, fulfilling life. I am committed to working with you, using a wide range of rich therapeutic approaches, to resolve your suffering. Well-known for my results-based approach, I consider your time valuable, and avoid dwelling on nonessentials and aimless talking, focusing instead on developing actions and solutions you can apply immediately. While skilled in the conventional therapies, my methods are creative and often nontraditional, drawing on ideas and approaches from many sources, including other cultures. However, the key to my effectiveness lies in my empathy, candor, optimism, intuition, and ability to develop a deeply supportive, nonjudgmental relationship with you. Be prepared to experience challenge, surprise, excitement, and success as we work together to meet your needs. I work with a variety of problems, and specialize in treating trauma, anxiety disorders (including general anxiety, phobia, and panic attacks), chronic pain or illness management, loss and grief, depression, suicidal impulses, rumination, and troubled healthcare professionals. As a military retiree spending the last few years of service providing therapy to all ranks and branches of the service, I am attuned to the unique needs of military, police and security personnel and their families. My practice also includes helping individuals to work on their life purpose and spiritual concerns. I will involve significant others in the therapeutic process when appropriate, and use psychoeducation and homework. I also clinically supervise, train, and consult with other clinicians in the area.

All communications will be treated as confidential, and your privacy is my highest priority.
