Introduction

My journey into counseling began with a fervent passion for serving youth. Years spent coaching at Christian schools and serving in leadership roles for Awana’s ignited my dedication to supporting young individuals. Starting as a direct support person, I gradually ascended through the ranks, progressing from a case manager to a mental health specialist. Concurrently, I pursued my education, ultimately transitioning into the role of a counselor. Balancing my professional growth, I am also a devoted family man, cherishing moments with my wife and kids, enriching both my personal and professional life. As a counselor with specialized training in play therapy and family counseling and over 15 years of experience working with youth, I am ABA certified and trained in EMDR. With advanced certifications in substance abuse counseling, child and adolescent therapy, crisis and abuse therapy, and pastoral counseling. My approach focuses on creating a supportive environment for individuals and families, guiding them through their personal journeys toward healing and well-being
