I am a Navy Veteran who has seen that we never have to remain stuck where we are no matter how hard things are. A decade ago I was living separate from my wife and children addicted to heroin on the streets of Chicago. After treatment I was still struggling in my life, marriage, career and then I decided to get healthy and break the cycle of addiction on my life.Instead of psychotropic meds, anti anxiety pills, alcohol and painkillers I found the amazing world of plant medicine, and thus began my journey of healing.Free from Heroin for over a decade I was restored to my faith, my family, and started a new career in Telecommunications. Recently we bought a house in the mountains of Colorado and I completed my Masters degree in Counseling. Now, I want to share that journey of healing with you.I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Coaching, Christian Holistic Therapy, Psychedelic Integration Therapy, Drug and Alcohol Interventions, Recovery Support for addictions in a harm reduction and trauma informed therapeutic model. I have a Masters Degree in Human Services: Addiction Therapy from Liberty University, and a B.Sc in Management and Christian leadership from Colorado Christian University I am a member of the American Association Of Christian Counselors, and collaborate with the Pike Peak Region Nowak Society which meets monthly for education and networking with Psychedelic Medicine professionals.
