Welcome

I am a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner with over 30 years of counseling experience. I have my Bachelors and Masters degree in Counseling, both from the University of Nebraska Omaha. I have been in private practice for 25 years. Prior to that I worked at Best Care EAP and at Psychiatric Services.

I am a Level II trained EMDR clinician. I have received specialized training in marriage counseling from the Gottman Institute and specialize in working
with couples.


I am also DBT trained and use many of it's concepts of mindfulness, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance with my clients.

I have been married to my wonderful wife Molly since 1990 and have three beautiful daughters. I enjoy helping my clients to get unstuck from old habits and coping mechanisms and learn new skills to help manage their emotions, thoughts, habits and relationships in healthy and more fulfilling ways.
