Personal statement:

The Lord has placed on my heart a desire to walk alongside my client as God works in their lives in and outside of the counseling. I come into all my counseling sessions with a humble and empathetic heart, and am honored to be able to be a part of God’s work in my clients’ lives as they overcome difficulties, find healing, and experience personal growth.

Outside of counseling I spend my time with my wife, Carolyn, who I married in 2020 and my beautiful daughter. Some of my favorite activities/hobbies are tennis, pickleball, and boardgames with friends and family. When in counseling I hope to focus on the integration of scripture and biblical principles as I believe there is no situation that God’s Word cannot provide some form of help or guidance in.
