Steve's Story

I was blessed to be raised in a family that trusted in the power of God to change lives. My parents modeled the values of faith, resilience, commitment, and hard work for my brother and I. From an early age I learned that family was a secure foundation on which I could build a life that demonstrates respect for others and trust in God as a source of strength. Currently, my wife and I attend a bible-based church where I am active in Men’s Ministry and facilitate a Griefshare group. Compassion for others’ experience, thankfulness for God’s goodness, and the value of humor are the principles that have guided me in my life’s journey. 

 

After working for 25 years in Social Services and Behavioral Health I realized that I was motivated to go deeper with individuals, couples, and families to support and encourage them in their journeys. This motivation set me on the challenging path to earning a graduate degree in Marriage/Family Therapy as I partnered with my wife to raise our four sons in a blended family. As a result I bring my life experience filled with balancing the competing demands of  work, graduate school, and nurturing family relationships. I am here to partner with you in your journey as you learn new skills and glean from my experience.
