Getting to know Brian

Brian has two adult daughters and has been married for 28 years. In March, he hopes his contract is renewed for a 29th year. He enjoys reading Daniel Silva novels, taking his two rescue dogs for long walks, serving his community, fellowship with other men, and researching the interrelatedness of our physical, mental, emotional, intellectual, social and financial health. 

Brian had an eleven-year career in information technology sales and has worked in the pharmaceutical industry since 2001. He currently represents treatments for hematologic disorders. He now leads the men’s group he joined in 2014 and serves within the soul care ministry at his church. He also serves on his neighborhood’s homeowner association board and would appreciate your prayers. 

Style & Approach

Brian subscribes to the person-centered belief that the relationship forged between him and the client represents the single most important determinant of therapeutic success. He offers an authentic, honest, and sincere approach, but also recognizes the importance of being able to laugh, especially at himself. He places a high emphasis on Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. To help clients achieve their goals, he draws from cognitive behavioral, choice/reality, solution-focused and other action-oriented approaches.
