I have 57 years of experience in counseling, supporting clients, teaching in universities, and leading professional workshops nationwide. I aim to achieve healthier relationships with kids, partners, in-laws, divorce, and job survival. With over 48 years sober myself, I specialize in substance abuse and recovery and use compassion for myself and others, all while being direct and diving right into the issues. Other specialties include ADHD, bipolar disorder, anxiety, complex psychological assessments, and public speaking.
Alongside my professional work, I believe in maintaining balance and staying active with mountain biking, road biking, or cherishing a loving relationship with my wife of nearly five decades. I wrote a book to help parents navigate the challenges of raising children while maintaining their own well-being. I focus on coaching people through meaningful, lasting change—providing practical tools and science-backed methods, and I strive to work myself out of a job.
