I am a Clinical Mental Health Therapist with over 16 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults and families in community mental health, educational and private practice settings. Prior to that, I spent 20 years in pastoral ministry. I completed my Masters in Counseling Psychology in 2008 from Northwestern Oklahoma State University, and soon after moved to Northwest New Mexico/Southwest Colorado. My professional experience includes: Administrator of a Residential Treatment Center, Clinical Administrator for Children's Behavioral Health, Student Assistance Coordinator for a school district, Visiting Professor at a School of Social Work, Private Practice, Outpatient Clinical Manager, Health Services Coordinator for a school district, and Integrated Behavioral Health Provider in a family medical practice setting. In addition to working with high risk/high needs children and adolescents, I work primarily with trauma as well as anxiety and depression. I also serve as a Certified First Responder Counselor.
My counseling approach is collaborative and skill based from the perspective that people aren't "broken" and need to be "fixed" and instead are seeking to improve their lives to be stronger and healthier. My role then becomes a guide and companion on the alternative life journey that people choose.
The first step on your new journey has been taken by reaching out for help. I look forward to traveling along that journey with you for a while.

Sean has been great for me in that he has been intuitive enough to ask me questions that cut right to the chase of what I need to wrap my head around and dissect. His questions challenge me to think more deeply and study the cause of my discontent. I very much need that!

Working with Sean has been a true blessing for me. Within just a few weeks he helped me work through things that I thought would require years to get through. Sean always made me feel seen as a person and it was easy to trust him very quickly. No matter what I said, I always felt safe and accepted. He never made me feel weird or broken or wrong but always helped me understand why certain things happen(ed). This might sound exaggerated but it truly was life-changing to work with Sean. I now feel strong and good about myself where that wasn't the case at all before. Sean always seemed to know exactly what I needed to hear and I will be grateful to him for the rest of my life!
