Over the last 15 years, I have gained experience working with families and couples. My practice is dedicated to addressing a broad spectrum of challenges, including anxiety, depression, communication issues, and trauma as well as gender issues. As a combat war veteran, I have significant experience working with military families, helping them navigate the unique challenges of military life and transitions. My approach is grounded in empathy and informed by a deep understanding of clinical and military contexts while utilizing homework, skills instruction, and psychoeducation to help my clients thrive.

As a child, I experience the loss of my father at the age of 5. That loss created a deep sadness and despair. With the support of mentors, coaches, and other leaders, I was able to overcome this. I went into social work and therapy to help others. I want to be a guide to help others overcome challenging and difficult times in their lives. I would like to be the person that changes the world for one person at a time.

I love to exercise and power lift. I am a huge sneaker head and collect and sell exclusive sneakers. I am also a lover of cars and art. I love spending time with my wife and two sons. I am also a world traveler.

I meditate and pray daily.

How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie. Each time I read this book I learn new ways to engage and interact with others.

USO—They provided great support and resources to me when I was deployed in the Middle East. Their book program allowed me to record myself reading a book and then send the book to my sons.

Exercise, spending time with family, prayer, and meditation.
