About me

Hi, I'm Eric.

My road to becoming a therapist began as a youth pastor here in Las Cruces. Guiding youth and adults through central issues in their lives was transformative, and it led me to graduate studies in Marriage & Family Therapy at Seattle Pacific University.

I see being a Christian-based Marriage & Family Therapist as a calling: helping people reclaim a sense of healing, hope, meaning and purpose in their lives. Within a Christian framework, faith and courage become part of change, for each person and for the relationship.

  • Graduate studies in Marriage & Family Therapy, Seattle Pacific University
  • Extensive training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy
  • Level 1 certification in Gottman couples therapy methods
