He brings 30 years of counseling and ministry experience to his work. He began in parish ministry and later moved into social work and clinical counseling roles. Clients meet a clinician who blends pastoral experience with long-term clinical practice.

He combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing within a client-centered, solution-focused frame. Sessions often focus on practical steps, clearer choices, and changes people can make between meetings. He aims to help people manage stress, anger, addiction, grief, relationship pain, ADHD, and other mood or life-change issues. People can expect a calm, empathetic listener who encourages honest conversation. He adapts how much spirituality appears in sessions to each person’s wishes.

Step 3

How his approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then clarify values and take small committed steps toward a chosen life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and testing practical changes that reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead to build insight and motivation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose or blend methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying a skill-based plan, focusing on values and commitment, or simply having space to be heard while exploring options.

Session formats are not specified in this profile, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people work with licensed professionals from their own communities without needing longer commutes. The therapist will help decide practical arrangements that fit the client’s life and goals.
