My counseling career began in 1978 at Wisconsin Lutheran Child & Family Service, eventually serving as Administrator for the Christian Family Counseling Division. I was one of the five team members that drafted the Scripture study course for therapists entitled “Guide Me with Your Counsel.”

Twenty-nine years later the Lord led me to open my own certified outpatient mental health clinic called Clinic for Christian Counseling in Eau Claire, WI. My wife and I also joined with Joshua and Kami Jo Lipps to form Living Well Christian Family Counseling in Onalaska, WI. The Lord has certainly blessed our work through the therapists that have joined both clinics and the people whom we serve.

My professional goal is to provide Christ-centered, Bible-based counseling services with the purpose of helping people deal with life’s struggles and challenges.
