Upon graduation he served as a therapist in a residential treatment center working with young men and their families to break the bonds addiction through focused trauma and relapse prevention work. He is an Associate Sexual Addiction Therapist (ASAT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing II Trained (EMDR II), Level 1 in the Gottman method of couples counseling, and a Certified Trauma Therapist intern (CTT).
My philosophy of healing revolves around understanding the grips of despair, brokenness, and shame carried by individuals and their families and coming alongside them as they seek physical, mental, spiritual, and relational health. I believe this is a task that demands being attentive to every part of the human experience-the physical, the cognitive, the affective, the volitional, and the relational. Wounds to one or more of these creates issues that, without help, will continue to manifest in undesirable and unhealthy ways.
