For eleven years (2011-2022) he served as the Senior Vice President for Clinical and Outpatient Services at Kids TLC, a psychiatric residential treatment facility for children and adolescents in Olathe, Kansas.

My approach to therapy

Works under the assumption that no problem occurs 24/7 and dedicated to finding ways to function well when the problem is not occurring and building strategies to make those times happen with increasing frequency.

What you can expect from me

Warm welcome, but candid feedback. Positive outcomes are dependent on client's willingness to own his/her part of the problem and move toward positive change.
