Lucas Stinnett, LPC

Life isn’t always sunshine and rainbows; it can be filled with challenges and hardships. I believe that life is all about perspective and the way we reaction to problems. Our hardships are opportunities for us to grow into stronger individuals. When challenges arise; most people ask; Why?" I encourage my clients to change their mentality by asking; "How?"—how can I use this to grow and learn; make myself smarter and wiser?" With 7 years of sobriety and personal experience battling my own challenges; I know how helpful therapy can be in helping a person rebuild their life and become the person they want to be."
