Collaborative. Responsive. Present.

Born and raised in California, I then spent 14 years living abroad (I like to call it my hippie backpacker phase!) before moving to Lancaster, PA. I am husband to Becca, and father to John, Matthew, and Everett. In additional to practicing counseling, I am an assistant teaching professor in Elizabethtown College's Master of Counseling Psychology program

My approach to counseling is collaborative, always taking into account  your unique cultural identities, preferences, and values. In therapy  jargon, I use an approach called narrative therapy and infuse my work  with both trauma-informed care and interpersonal neurobiology. I also  attempt to use humor, playfulness, and spirituality when appropriate.
