I am a loved son and grandson, husband, father, brother, and counselor. I was born a military brat on Fort Hood and raised on MREs and kiwi boot polish. At the University of North Texas, I majored in psychology and fell in love with jazz and Thai food. Shortly after, I continued with graduate school and earned a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology at Texas A&M University-Central Texas.
My biggest strengths are creativity, curiosity, humor, and fairness. I love learning about people and creating options or game plans to help individuals move toward happiness.
A lot of what I do as a therapist is helping clients build insight into their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I want them to develop an understanding of why they do the things they do, and how they can start making different choices that are more in line with their goals and values. My style is very active yet supportive. I love talking about homework and our own next steps because it is all about the journey.
