Chaplain, Biblical Counselor, Crisis Care

A life of steady presence

For more than four decades, I've worked in the quiet corners of human life. My work blends Christian chaplaincy, biblical counseling, trauma-informed support, and the simple ministry of showing up when someone's world tilts.

My Calling

Walking with people, not preaching at them

A chaplain walks alongside you through life's hardest moments. I don't preach at people; I walk with them. My strength is reading a room quickly, staying calm when things get tense, and helping people take the next step forward. From hospice rooms to head-injury rehab, my approach stays the same — porch-level, human, and steady.

How I Care

Grounded in Scripture, story, and presence

My work is spiritual care rooted in Scripture and narrative listening. I don't walk in with an agenda; I come alongside with prayer, honest conversation, and a steady presence.

Faith-Guided Care

I hold space for your spiritual questions and struggles, offering prayer and reflection when you want them.

Confidential Presence

You can speak freely. What you share stays with me, kept private and handled with gentle respect.

A Listening Ear

When you're not sure what to say or who to turn to, I'm here to hear you out.

Non-Judgmental Support

Your story is yours, and I honor it. There's no judgment here, only a quiet place to be honest.

Walking Alongside

I don't rush you or push you. I walk at your pace, offering steady support through whatever you're facing.

Rooted in Community

As part of the Sparta community, I'm here to support neighbors, friends, and families in tough seasons.

One conversation can change everything

Reach out today. I'll listen, and I'll walk with you through whatever you're facing — one next step at a time.
