Therapist
Exclusively Providing Telehealth Services
Jefferson City Missouri 65101
I am a "missionary kid"--my parents were evangelical missionaries to Brazil. Our own painful family problems were my inspiration to help others. Therapists must be compassionate first, and then add a high level of expertise, something that takes time. I became a therapist (LPC and clinical psychology) in 1992, and my PhD in 2016. I have helped many, many people overcome anxiety, anger, depression, and marriage problems, to achieve peace, stability, and success. I work with adults, families, and teenagers, and specialize in providing Thomist, Catholic-faith-based solutions. I call my approach "UnCounseling" -- designed for people who hate the thought of counseling or psychotherapy.
I am a Lay Dominican, and the president and founder of St. Barnabas Reconciliation Ministries (stbarn.org), a non-profit Catholic counseling organization. Our mission is to reconcile families to each other, to reconcile religions to each other, and to reconcile all people to God.

I am not a therap-y therapist. I subscribe to the older view of the world, though I use modern research and yes, I’m fully licensed. I call what I do “UnCounseling” because I reject the common worldview of Moralistic Therapeutic Deism (here’s a good short article, not my website, usual disclaimers: romancatholicman.com/wp/moralistic-therapeutic-deism/). I am very effective at reaching goals which are not the same as most secular therapy goals!
