My passion is to help people develop meaning, purpose, direction, and belonging in their lives. I help people win in life both professionally and personally. I am licensed as a LMFT in the state of Texas with 6 years of professional work experience. I am a retired U.S. Army Ranger Chaplain with over 32 years of military experience serving in conventional and Special Operation organizations. As an Army Chaplain, I have worked with individuals and couples for over 16 years. I have taught, trained, counseled, and coach over 8,000 professionals across the U.S. Army and faith-based communities. I have experience in helping clients find meaning, purpose, and direction in their lives while working through stress and anxiety, relationship issues, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & career difficulties. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and purposeful life or relationship takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
The goal of our first session is to ensure we are a good fit for each other. We will explore your reasons for seeking therapy and discuss your desired goals. You will have an opportunity to ask me questions about my experience, approach, and process of therapy. At the end of our first session, we will determine if it is in your best interest to work together or if changing therapist better serves you and your goals.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I integrate my professional training with my pastoral identity which offers a unique pastoral therapeutic approach to counseling/therapy. I offer a safe, compassionate, non-judgmental, and pastoral approach to therapy. I will provide you with the exceptional care regardless of your citizenship, ethnicity, race, gender, or religious preference.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Christian Counseling
I am an ordained minister with over 17 years experiences in pastoral care and counseling. As a Christian, I hold a biblical world view and the Holy Scriptures inform my beliefs and values. I respect the beliefs and values of my clients and will not impose my beliefs or values on them. Rather, I provide hope, help, and healing through educating, equipping and empowering people to win in life.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I am a retired U.S. Army Ranger Chaplain with over 32 years of military experience serving in conventional and Special Operation organizations. As an Army Chaplain, I have worked with individuals and couples for over 16 years. I have taught, trained, counseled, and coach over 8,000 professionals across the U.S. Army and faith-based communities. During my service as a chaplain, I have utilized Solution Focused Therapy (SFT) to help individuals get unstuck and find solutions to their saturated problems. Because of our fixed ways of thinking, we often miss out on discovering future possibilities. “At certain times of our lives, we are literally saturated with problems. The ability of our brains to keep up by creating the necessary neural pathways and connections is hindered—thus we become overwhelmed. We can feel unable to cope. We are stuck, powerless to visualize options or solutions. As your therapist, I will come along side you to help you get "unstuck" and explore solutions that will help you achieve your goals and move in your desired direction.
Motivational Interviewing
I utilize Motivational interviewing (MI) to help people explore and resolve ambivalence about making a change in their lives. It has been effective with clients who struggle with addictions and/or want to make a transformational change in one’s life. MI is a client-centered and collaborative process between myself and my client, where the clients’ internal motivations for change are used to help them solve a healthcare-related, psychological, or fitness/nutritional problem. The goal is to help clients discover their interest in making a change, express their desire for change, examine their ambivalence, plan for and begin the process of change, and strengthen their commitment to change.
Grief Therapy
I am a retired U.S. Army Ranger Chaplain with over 32 years of military experience serving in conventional and Special Operation organizations. As an Army Chaplain, I have worked with individuals and couples for over 16 years. During my service as a chaplain, I have provided compassionate-care and counsel to numerous Service Members, Retirees, DA Civilians, and their Families following the death of a loved one or the notice of a terminally illness. I utilize a variety of techniques and approaches based on my client's needs and stage of grief.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
I have over 16 years of experiences working with couples overcome infidelity, increase couple communication, resolve conflicts, and strengthen the relational bonds. Couple therapy is a process of identifying interaction and communication patterns that are negatively impacting the friendship, intimacy, and fulfillment of needs of one or both partners in a relationship. Each of you will be expected to honestly examine your own interaction and communication styles, identify and express your own feelings, and make an attempt at experimenting with alternative methods of communicating and interacting. Please note, if you decide to work with me and begin attending couple therapy sessions, you as a couple are considered to be "the client." I have a "no secret" policy. There may be times when we decide to meet individually over live video or audio sessions where sensitive information is discussed and disclosed. I will not initiate any disclosure to the other partner by will work with you to bring it up in a joint session. Because the relationship is the main focus of couples' therapy, I ask that both of you be present for the couples' session to start. As discussed above, there may be appropriate times where we decide to meet individually as long as out time is focused on the relationship.
