My philosophy of care is deeply rooted in the latest scientific findings in psychiatry. I understand that mental health is a complex and multifaceted field, and I am committed to staying at the forefront of research to provide my patients with the most effective and innovative treatments available. By integrating the latest advancements in neurobiology, psychopharmacology and evidence-based psychotherapies, I ensure that my care is both scientifically sound and tailored to the unique needs of each individual I serve.

I believe that compassionate care is the cornerstone of effective mental health treatment. My approach is to build a therapeutic relationship based on mutual respect, empathy and understanding. I recognize that my patients are the experts in their own experiences, and I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where they feel heard and valued. This compassionate approach not only fosters trust but also enhances the healing process, allowing us to work together to achieve meaningful and lasting outcomes.

Collaboration is at the heart of everything I do. I view the treatment process as a partnership between myself and my patients. By involving them in every step of their care, from diagnosis to treatment planning and beyond, I empower my patients to take an active role in their recovery. This collaborative approach ensures that my patients are fully informed, engaged and motivated to achieve their mental health goals, leading to better outcomes and a higher quality of life.

I’m a proud native of northern Colorado, born and raised in Greeley. My love for the outdoors is a big part of who I am—whether it’s hiking, fishing, or simply exploring, I find joy in connecting with nature. Outside of work, I’m dedicated to spending time with my wife and our seven children, who bring so much joy and meaning to my life. Family and the outdoors are central to my world, and I bring that same sense of care and commitment to everything I do.
