One Sentence Treatment Philosophy

As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) and a Certified Clinical Trauma Provider (CCTP), I am absolutely passionate about helping those impacted by sexual integrity issues.

Personal Statement of Faith

I came to faith later in life. As a man who struggled with sex and pornography addiction for over 20 years, my belief in the power of Christ came as the direct result of stepping into a biblically-based 12-step recovery program called Celebrate Recovery. It was through this program that I FINALLY encountered a personal relationship with Jesus. I often say to friends, family, and anyone who asks about my life story, what the enemy meant for evil was actually used “for the good of those who love God, who have been called according to his purpose.” (Romans 8:28). I couldn’t be more grateful!
