We currently have one highly trained and experienced counselor in our practice to meet your unique needs. We stand ready to come alongside you and work ourselves out of a job. If you want to improve your relationships & are willing to take personal responsibility for your part in making it happen, I'd be honored to help that become a reality.
Dr John served in combat as a military chaplain and understand the cost of war. Although it is usually a misspelling, many couples have come to believe that marital and martial are the same thing. But it's not supposed to be that way. Couples aren't supposed to be enemies in war. I bring my training and experience to bear to help couples win in marriage.
We understand the struggles of relationships, especially marriage. We are supposed to learn how to be married well by watching Dad and Mom demonstrate it to us as we grow up. If they didn't do a good job, where would you learn how to have a great marriage? That's where I come in. I help give tools & hope to help couples build incredible relationships.

My doctoral research and thesis were on Reconciliation and Rebuilding Trust in Relationships and I specialize in Infidelity Recovery, including Trauma Recovery. We utilize an integrative approach that is customized to each client's needs, rather than fitting a client to a particular modality.

I have an extensive toolbox of tools to help clients. Initial sessions are about getting to know the concerns and goals of the clients & letting them get to know me &my skills and abilities enough to determine if they think I can help them. Often by the end of the session, but always by the next session, I take that information and develop a plan to use the best tools to help clients succeed.
