Wanting change? I am a licensed professional counselor, trauma healing wilderness therapist, coach, and men's group facilitator. I believe we have 1 life to live. My passion is helping you discover your way to live as fully and happily as possible. It is important to me that you experience progress, so I work hard with you wherever you are at in your struggles. My approach is both sensitive but masculine so that you feel safe and unpressured while bravely examining your inner blocks. Together we create action plans that help you apply your insights and get the most out of our work together. We go as deep as you feel ready to go.
I welcome intensity and view all emotional impulses as borne of love. Occasionally, emotions get out of balance and out of sync with our other needs. I help you build capacity for your human liveliness and learn how to channel it so that you can be ALL of YOU right here, right now. Clients find me challenging yet unconditionally accepting of them.
As a wilderness therapist, I work indoors and out, weather and client permitting. My hobbies include laughing, story-telling, friends and family, motorcycle and wilderness adventures, fishing, hunting, martial arts, building, and dancing. I'm always evolving and am currently integrating vision from a 3 week Peruvian Ayahuasca retreat.
