I began working in the field at a VA Hospital Indiana psychiatric unit at the age of 18. My official first mental health job was at a psychiatric inpatient unit in Fort Wayne, Indiana in 1977 when I was 22. From there I was hired at the local mental health center and worked the next 40 years. I retired in from my job of 40 years in 2018 but have continued to do private practice. I have a passion to work with people who need therapy. I am excited to keep working in the field of counseling. My specialties include, trauma counseling, grief work, anxiety disorders, depression and LGBTQ issues. I specifically love to take Trauma cases and people who have anxiety disorders. Since the pandemic began, I have done Telehealth services from my home and in the private practice office. Better Help with its focus on telehealth is the perfect place for me to work. I enjoy being a therapist because I feel it was the path I was meant to follow. I look forward to accepting new clients.

This is my first time ever in therapy and i feel I really lucked out by finding Art! I was hesitant and nervous to begin but that went away in the first few moments. I have left each session feeling happier and relieved. Art is tentative and listens well yet guides me through the conversation well when my anxiety starts to quiet me. The sessions go by really quickly as I feel i could talk to him for hours. Thanks Art!

Although I have many issues that I discuss with Arthur, jumping from topic to topic, he always keeps up with me. Asks poignant questions, offers a solution or empathizes. I admire his candidness, honesty and insights.

Although my time with Art has been brief, I couldn't recommend his services enough. I find him to be incredibly patient and actively listens to you, giving you all the time you need to talk. He also provides great insight and clearly has a great amount of experience helping people. It is very clear that he is extremely effective in helping people to find the tools they need to work through their problems and I'm grateful that I was matched with him. This has been my first experience with therapy, but I would be more than happy to recommend his services.

I vibe very well with Arthur. I explained to him how I respond to certain things and/or comments and he adjusted his style to fit me as opposed to expecting me to adjust mine which I liked a lot. This small, but large gesture allows me to be more open and vulnerable so we can get to the crux of whatever is bothering me.

Honestly, best therapist for someone who’s never been to therapy, he’s calming, works through things, and helps figure certain problems you may have, not to mention he’s very relatable and reliable. I give him a 10/10!

When I started better help I really need to have some hope and regain my balance etc, everything felt chaotic and I couldn’t see how can I get myself get better.
Art is so easy to speak to and also very experienced and knowledgeable.
He is also very empathetic and understanding.
Right away I felt hopeful and that is what I needed the most at the time.
And more I see him and contemplate and try new skills I learn that also make me feel more positive and empowering.
I am so grateful
