Coming to therapy can be scary and hard, but I commit to every person to bring a genuine, warm and comfortable experience that allows you the space to be you! One of my skills as a therapist is building a strong supportive rapport with each person that walks through my door. You can expect me to be genuinely me with no pretense or stuffiness. I consider it the utmost honor and privilege to walk with someone through hard times. I believe that every person is capable of change and growth. Sometimes all it takes is a supportive person to come along side and encourage the goals towards change!
Education and Experience: I use a combination of therapeutic techniques that match every unique individual. These include CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, solution focused, narrative therapy, emotionally focused therapy, and structural therapy. I have a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Evangelical Seminary, however, I also enjoy seeing individuals and all unique people.
I grew up in New England and not that long ago moved west to Boise, Idaho. I have yet to see a potato farm, however, I am extremely active in everything Idaho has to offer. The mountains and wilderness have been my playground for the past few years. I backpack, hike, bike, kayak, ski and do anything outdoors related all year long. I am also an artist so if art is your thing too you better bet we will be adding that to the therapeutic process!

Specialties: Include ADHD, Alzheimer’s, Antisocial Personality, Anxiety, Asperger’s, Autism, Behavioral Issues, Bipolar Disorder, Career Counseling, Child or Adolescent, Chronic Illness, Coping Skills, Depression, Developmental Disorders, Divorce, Domestic Abuse, Domestic Violence, Dual Diagnosis, Emotional Disturbance, Family Conflict, Grief, Intellectual Disability, Learning Disabilities, Life Coaching, Life Transitions, Oppositional Defiance, Peer Relationships, Racial Identity, Relationship Issues, School Issues, Self Esteem, Self-Harming, Sleep or Insomnia, Spirituality, Stress, Suicidal Ideation, Transgender, Trauma and PTSD, Women’s Issues, LGBTQA+
Education and Experience: I received my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Idaho and my Master’s degree in Social Work from Eastern Washington University. I have previously worked as a program manager for providing services for disabled individuals in their homes and also work at an LGBTQA+ youth drop-in center in Spokane. I have mostly worked with teens and adults and have experience with various disorders such as mood disorders, personality disorders, social impairments, as well as other issues such as sexual and gender identity, and behavioral issues.
Approach to Therapy: My approach to therapy is influenced heavily by my education and my experience and I focus on meeting the client where they are at, helping them to understand and use supports that they have around them and using both short and long terms goals. Making a decision to see a counselor and to come in for sessions can be a very difficult decision for clients, so I always want to make sure that they feel that they are in a safe space in order to build up a rapport with me as their therapist. I use approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral, Culturally Sensitive, Multicultural, Trauma Focused and Mindfulness as tools with my clients in order to help them get the most out of their therapy.
About Me: I understand and know how important it is to know a little about myself when you are choosing a counselor. I have lived most of my life in the Pacific Northwest, most living in Washington and Idaho, but I consider my hometown to be Moscow, Idaho. I enjoy reading, watching Asian movies and dramas (I am trying to learn Chinese), listening to various types of music, taking walks with my dog and exploring new places to eat around the Treasure Valley. I also enjoy taking trips with my husband to explore ghost towns as we have created a list of places we would like to visit. I am a calm and contemplative person both in my personal and work life and am a good listener. I hope that by knowing a little about me helps you in making your decision when choosing a counselor.

I believe that with support we can all become the person we feel we should become. I believe that we can find peace in our lives. In our appointments, we will together work towards this peace. It is in our appointments where you will find a space free from judgment. After all, you are the expert of your own life. As a guide, I will help unlock the locked doors in your life. Sometimes the process of unlocking these doors might cause you to become uncomfortable. Behind these doors, you will find resolution, peace and contentment. I know that making that first appointment is sometimes difficult, but go ahead and take that leap towards recovery and open that first door.
In recovery, clear communication is vital. I have learned Sign Language and am also an interpreter with 17 years of interpreting experience. If you are Deaf or Hard of Hearing and want to experience counseling in a judgment free zone with someone who understands you, please email me or call the main office number.
I will use a combination of techniques in the framework of the following; Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused, Mindfulness, Trauma-Informed, Strengths-Based, Person-Centered, Motivational Interviewing, Existential therapy and others.
I graduated from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology with a concentration in Crisis and Trauma Counseling. I have experience working in In-Patient and Out-Patient mental health with a wide range of age groups.
I'm the father of three young boys and the husband to my beautiful wife. We love going on 'adventures.' We really enjoy seeking out places we've never been to before and tasting food we've never tasted before.
