MORE ABOUT Brett
In addition to being a counselor and supervisor, I find great value in my family, faith and the outdoors.
​
I am a family man with the privilege of being a husband and father. I have been married to my wife since 2012 and have been blessed with five children (three of whom are triplets!). My greatest joy is being present in their lives and spending quality time with each of them.
​
My Christian faith is also central to who I am and has played a crucial role in developing me into the man and counselor I am today. Through relationship with Christ and particular men and women of the faith encountered along the way, whom I now consider family, I have realized the transformative power of relationship. It is in the context of safe and secure relationships that we are provided an opportunity to experience ourselves in a new way. My experience with family and faith has taught me that healthy relationship has the powerful potential to foster healing, connection and hope.
I also love the outdoors! Whether it’s taking a short walk to Summit Coffee, going for a bike ride or an extended backcountry camping trip, count me in. I am a firm believer in self-care, therefore engaging in hobbies and activities that bring me joy are critical to maintaining my own mental health.
MORE ABOUT Laura
Outside of the counseling room, I am someone who genuinely enjoys being with others. I thrive in warm weather, enjoy exercise, and value time with family and friends. I have been married to my husband since 2008 and am a mom to four incredible kids—roles that continually shape my understanding of relationships, growth, and resilience across the lifespan.
My Christian faith is central to who I am and informs the way I see people and the world. My many years with the ministry of Young Life, mentoring adolescents, young adults, and staff, have deeply influenced my relational orientation and my passion for helping others feel seen, supported, and understood.
At heart, I am a deeply relational person who is unafraid of the real and messy parts of life. I value authenticity, collaboration, and offering a safe, steady presence to others. I find real joy in simple pleasures—sitting on a beach after five o’clock, unhurried conversations, going out to brunch, and, of course, the delight of an ice-cold fountain Diet Coke!
