"My goal as a therapist is to put all of my clients at ease with the counseling process. I believe in creating a therapeutic relationship that allows us to work together to help my clients achieve progress on their counseling goals and that counseling is most effective when you find a counselor that is the best fit for you and your family.
I have experience and training working with children, adolescents, families, individuals, and couples. I am passionate about all my work as a counselor, especially the work I do with children and their families."

MA, PPC, NCC
I am a recent Liberty University graduate, and I am working toward a play therapy certificate at the University of Wyoming. Before starting my graduate education, I was a combat medic with the 101st Airborne. I like to spend a lot of time outside hiking, running, and camping, and I am a proud husband and father.
Life is full of difficult transitions and hardships that can be overwhelming when you do not have someone to talk to. Therapy can be intimidating, but I strive to create a relaxed, safe place where you can bring whatever is on your mind to the table. Together, we can work toward achieving your goals. Developing a meaningful, empathetic relationship is the most important and effective part of therapy. I strive to foster genuine, caring relationships with my clients to make them feel comfortable and to facilitate healing.
I believe that it is important that therapy is holistic, including physical, emotional, and spiritual health. I pull from various counseling techniques and theories to meet your specific needs. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, children’s behavior issues, and more. I also have specific training in play therapy for children, trauma, PTSD, and combat-related stress. If you are considering seeing a therapist, I encourage you to set up a consultation and see how you can take your first step to achieving emotional, physical, and spiritual health.

Everyone goes through hardships in their lives, and many face challenges that require some outside support and aid. While friends and family are a great resource, some parts of life are too personal or overwhelming to share with these people. Reaching out for help can be intimidating and I strive to provide a safe and supportive space that allows you to attain the support and aid you need.
I believe that therapy is most effective when it is collaborative and holistic (mind, body, and soul). I utilize many different counseling theories in order to best serve you in your specific journey. The best counseling outcomes begin with the relationship formed between counselor and client, so I encourage you to set up a consultation session so you can decide if I am the right fit for you!

Are you noticing you have lost touch with yourself? Whether due to your season of life, current job, relationships, hormonal and physical changes, postpartum difficulties, or the ever-changing world, I am here for you. There is an aspect of human nature that craves a trusted community. You or someone that you love may be experiencing or have experienced overwhelm, anxiety, depression, grief, shame, guilt, isolation, emptiness, or trauma and the impacts that it has had on wellbeing and relationships. This is a challenging journey to take by yourself or to watch another go on.
Counseling’s goal is to create a safe place to share your journey. Offering a place for you to feel included, seen, heard, and known. Counseling can equip you with tools to tame your anxiety, put your depression in remission, experience healing and relief from your traumas, clarity and fullness in your relationships.
I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. Drawing from a variety of counseling approaches and techniques I tailor my services to your unique needs and situations. Through sharing your memories, thoughts, fears, and stresses, you can experience connection and no longer feel alone. I will walk with you on the journey towards better health, incorporating mind, body, spirit, and soul. Journeying with me may be the step in the right direction, to bring you more joy, peace, and fullness of life. Connection is the heart and soul of counseling, so let’s connect. Please reach out for a free consultation where we can see if we are a good fit!
