Bio
I am a licensed professional counselor (MA, LPC) and a nationally certified counselor (NCC) with a SPADA certificate in substance abuse from Western Michigan University. I received my Bachelors of Arts from Michigan State University majoring in Psychology & American/ Russian History with a teacher certification for secondary education.
I joined Mental Wellness Counseling in 2012 and have recently gone full time in full pursuit of private practice. Past employment included Addiction Treatment Services and the Traverse Health Clinic as a clinical therapist . I specialize in counseling people struggling with dependency issues (including substance abuse), complex family situations, anxiety/depression issues and parenting. My counseling philosophy is holistic, approaching each client as their own theory, evaluating influences and perceptions to help guide the client through life’s dilemmas and in so doing bettering their outlook on life.
I am life long resident of Northern Michigan who has a passion for reading, writing, music and helping others. I am also a proud single father of two sons one who is enrolled at Northern Michigan University and the other entering junior high.
