About My Clients
Every person is a masterpiece, created with a purpose to do great things. Sometimes we feel lost, get overwhelmed with anxious thoughts, become sad, get angry, and feel worthless. Perhaps your tween or teen is struggling with focus, impulsive behaviors, or other behavioral issues. Does lack of motivation or struggles with decision making, get in the way of you setting or accomplishing goals? I provide therapy to teens, adults, and couples equipping them with tools to overcome life's challenges.
My Background and Approach
I have a Master’s degree in counseling psychology from Abilene Christian University and have over 19 years of experience working with preteens, teens, adults, families and couples; seven of those years in a counseling setting. I approach counseling through a cognitive behavioral approach and also use solution-focused therapy to help clients find solutions that work for them I also often incorporate mindfulness, games, activities, art and other techniques, especially when working with adolescents. Through counseling sessions, you will learn skills to overcome life’s challenges.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I have a passion for working with teens and preteens, parents, and their families to help them through the everyday, and not so everyday, struggles of life. As a father of three children spanning elementary, middle school, and high school I can appreciate working close with parents in teaching skills and help families come together. I have spent much time working in my community gaining experience through working with schools and school counselors, leading mentoring groups, leading teams of volunteers, and working with many local organizations serving people. I approach counseling with a Christian perspective, recognizing that to some faith is very important and to others they do not want to talk about faith. Whatever your personal beliefs my focus in therapy is to equip clients to find what works for them and live their best life.
