My Background and Approach

I became licensed as a Mental Health Therapist while working as a Professor at Concordia University Nebraska. I did part time counseling while teaching. After nearly 8 years in Higher Education I returned to the serving a congregation as pastor. I became the pastor of a rural congregation in Nebraska and after five years of service at that church, in September of 2022 I retired at age 57 from pastoring and began fulltime counseling. God has been able to use me with my vast experiences to share insights into our therapeutic sessions. Kevin's approach is client driven. He has a caring heart and desires for you to work on what is most important to you. Kevin has experience using Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Family Systems and Solution Focused Therapy.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I prefer a relaxed setting in my sessions. You may have heard "humor is the best medicine" so I try where applicable to add humor to my sessions. I also strive to find strengths in everyone I meet. When setting goals for treatment it is important the the client participates and sets measurable and realistic goals that they agree to work toward. In our first session we will get to know one another as we discuss your presenting problem, past mental healthy therapy and goals for your sessions.
