I love working with people and especially enjoy offering help to the grieving, hurting, confused and overwhelmed. I am a certified facilitator of the Marriage and Pre-Marital program "Prepare/Enrich" and have worked with countless couples to restore, enhance and enrich their marriage relationships. I have worked with hundreds of college students, teens, adolescent's and their parents since April of 1987. I offer a faith-based approach in counseling but likewise respect the wishes of clients that prefer a non-faith, CBT method at my personal office, and work in a clinical setting under supervision at HMS.
I am a retired Ordained Bishop from 28 years of pastoral ministry. I received a Master of Arts in Church Ministries in 2014 and a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.
I married my high school sweet heart, Cindy, 31 years ago and can't wait for the next 30. I am the proud father of two beautiful young ladies, Paige & Leah and a son-in-law, Darren, and in 2016, became "Poppy" to my wonderful new grand baby, Eliza Claire.
