I am a marriage and family therapist licensed in Oregon with over 7 years of experience working as a medical family therapist. I have worked with an array of clients with a wide range of presenting problems including grief and loss, depression, anxiety, relational distress, and adjustment as well as clients dealing with chronic illness. As a family therapist, I am dedicated to facilitate positive change by exploring the client’s story within their context, interactions, and relationships. My personal values of compassion, care, and respect are fundamental in my practice. I employ a collaborative approach with strong reliance on cognitive-behavioral and biopsychosocial spiritual treatment modalities. I believe we can narrow down what you desire to address and set some simple, realistic goals so you can feel connected to your core values and positive beliefs again. Are you ready to take some steps towards change? It is a privilege to work with you and offer support during this process. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi Friend, This is a little about me. First and foremost I am a regular and down-to-earth guy. At times Counseling professionals and other helping professionals can can get reputations to "high and mighty", "up on a pedestal", or 'holier than thou". I am a regular 40 year old man who is balding and slightly overweight. I have made mistakes in my life as I'm sure you have. I do not have a magic wand to make your life better in a hurry. What I do have is an open ear, a caring heart, a good education, and about 15 years in counseling a wide variety of people and issues. Of these the most common issues I have helped others with are overcoming symptoms of depression, anxiety, addiction, and common family issues. As I mentioned earlier there is no magic to what I do but we can work toward goals and talk it out.

Licensed in both California & Washington, I have been 50 years in the field of counseling & supervisory education. So in semi-retirement, I have a limited number of spaces. Still, I love working with people actively engaged in improving their relationships, building more confidence or addressing life changes. My style is interactive with a bit of humor; and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels, nor do I encourage diagnostic ones. (These are reductionisitic and generally not very helpful.) It takes courage to seek a fulfilling, happier life and step forward into change. If you are ready for that, I am glad to support and facilitate you. PS I do not keep notes; so what is said can be shared with complete confidentiality. Also my intake sessions (just 30 minutes) are for the purpose of checking mutual chemistry for our work together; please let me know immediately if you would like a different therapist. I can help make that happen sooner than later and it saves us both time & effort. Matching to the right therapist is a very large part of session success; so be picky. I look forward to meeting you soon!
