I endeavor to empower individuals, couples, and families to face life’s obstacles. Using a hybrid approach that incorporates techniques from Solution Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Family Systems approaches, I strive to create a safe and authentic therapeutic relationship.

I walked into the counseling world after working for ten years as a teacher and athletic coach at an international school in Germany. In addition to my work in counseling, I also completed a Masters of Divinity in 2014 and have served as a Chaplain with the US Air Force Reserve since 2012. I also previously worked as a first responder in Washington State.

Having lived in Europe and the East Coast most of my life, I’m enjoying living in the Pacific Northwest, exploring the mountains and lakes with my wife and two daughters.
