Living with or loving someone with sickle cell disease carries not only the burden of physical health concerns but emotional effects ranging from anxiety and depression to strained family relationships. Let our professionally licensed and caring mental health therapists support you through these all-too-common experiences and help you live your life to the fullest. Travis Ramsey, Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, has over 13 years of experience in the mental health field, working in multiple addiction treatment centers and in private practice, serving adolescents through adults. He sees individuals, couples, and families, believing that loving connections with ourselves and others is the best path to overall health. With advanced training in Emotionally-Focused Therapy, along with Mindfulness, and Internal Family Systems Therapy, and the option of integrating one’s spirituality, he uses specific strategies to help clients heal their internal wounds while creating safe and secure relationships. Outside of work, Travis is a single dad to three amazing daughters and understands the complexities of parenting, long-term relationships, family rifts, divorce, and dating.
