Hi. My name is John. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor, with over 15 years of experience working primarily with children, adolescents, and families. In my work, I help kids and parents with things like anxiety, depression, stress of school and home life, parenting techniques, child behavior, anger management, and life choices.

I was raised in a big family. We had our share of problems, and through the years growing up I had no idea that there were professionals who could have helped see me through the difficulties I was experiencing. My desire is to be that person for others today.

I currently provide counseling at a rural healthcare clinic, serving our community by helping children, teens, and families navigate the struggles of every day life, as well as overcome the very unique and often heavy hardships they are facing. I do work in the schools, as well, and get to utilize various forms of therapy to help kids and their parents – from play therapy, CBT, trauma and grief counseling, to psychoeducation about emotions, parenting strategies, and coping skills.

If you’re looking for education, resources, tips, and insights, you’re in the right place. If you’re interested in therapy, please fill out the contact form and I’ll be in touch! Thanks for visiting.
