Getting Started
Call, text, or email — no pressure, no commitment. A free 15-minute consultation is your starting point.
Tell me what's been weighing on you. Every person carries a different story, and yours deserves to be heard.
Together we'll create a path forward that honors your faith, your goals, and where you are right now.
Show up. Do the work. Real change happens one session at a time — and you won't be doing it alone.
"Every person carries a different story."
This practice is for adults who are ready to do honest work — whether that means navigating a faith crisis, recovering from addiction, processing spiritual wounds, or simply figuring out why life feels heavier than it should. Faith is welcome here. So are questions.
What We Offer
Deepen your faith and integrate your spiritual life into lasting emotional and mental wellness.
One-on-one counseling for adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and life transitions.
Faith-informed support for those working through substance use and recovery with a whole-person approach.
With 7+ years of clinical experience, a background as an adjunct counseling professor at Pfeiffer University, and a Master of Arts in Christian Counseling from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary — Brian brings both academic depth and real-world compassion to every session.
His approach is direct, grounded, and built around you. Whether you're rebuilding after a faith crisis, working through grief, or finally ready to face something you've been carrying alone — this is a place where that work can happen.
