I spent over 25 years working as an educator in a diverse variety of settings prior to my counseling work, and I bring that same curiosity, patience, and care into my counseling practice. I'm a husband of 34 years, a father of three grown kids, and a grandfather — and I know firsthand how our history, relationships, and the beliefs we carry can shape the way we see ourselves and the world. My own experience in counseling helped me find a path through some of that, and it's part of why I do this work today. At my core, I'm a person-centered therapist who welcomes clients of every background, belief, and identity into a space free of judgment — including LGBTQ+ folks, who are always affirmed here. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and that an authentic, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship — built on empathy and trust — is the foundation for meaningful change. Within that framework, I draw on many techniques from ACT, REBT, Somatic, IFS and other modalities.
