He trained in seminary and holds a Master of Divinity, with postgraduate study in marriage and family therapy. He combines relational and cognitive methods to help people set practical goals.

How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying values and taking committed action despite uncomfortable emotions. Online ACT can help people who want to manage anger, anxiety, or life transitions by practicing small, value-based steps between sessions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. Delivered remotely, CBT supports structured skill practice, homework, and short check-ins to track progress.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on identifying and reshaping emotional responses in close relationships. In remote sessions, EFT work can include guided conversations and exercises to improve communication and connection with partners or close others.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify therapy goals and try methods that fit those goals and personal preferences. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps most.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time for people balancing work or family demands. Licensed professionals can use these formats to focus on skill building, communication practice, and follow-up between meetings.
