Experience as a former police office gave Steve valuable insight into the chaos that life can bring. His time as a police officer helped drive his desire to return to school to gain the education needed to continue helping others.
Steve graduated from the University of Utah with a master’s degree in social work. Steve has worked with adolescents and adults struggling with many issues such as depression, anxiety, autism spectrum disorder, and PTSD. Steve also worked with the Salt Lake County District Attorney’s Office as a victim counselor where he worked with victims of crime.
As a mental health counselor, Steve’s warm approach often involves a lot of humor, breaking down treatment resistance, and building trusting relationships. Steve believes that a trusting therapeutic relationship is the foundation for change. In his free time, Steve loves traveling with his wife and three children.
His preferred fixations when not traveling with family are fly-fishing and spending some peaceful time outdoors. When time permits, he also enjoys strumming his ukulele and playing a Native American flute.
