ABOUT ME

Ethan is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist who provides a compassionate, collaborative space for clients navigating life’s complexities—whether it's trauma, identity exploration, or the emotional weight of stress, burnout, or substance use.


Ethan holds a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from John Brown University in Arkansas, where he also played collegiate sports, and a Master’s in Clinical
Psychology from Pepperdine University. 


Ethan's clinical approach integrates Psychodynamic and Existential perspectives to help uncover how past experiences and deeper questions of identity influence present struggles. Ethan also uses (MI) Motivational Interviewing (MI) to help clients explore their values, build insight, and take action at their own pace, as well as (CBT) Cognitive Behavior Therapy to help individuals manage and overcome challenges by understanding the link between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.


Ethan enjoys working with individuals, adolescents, and adults who are healing from trauma—whether rooted in early relationships, systemic experiences, or major life events—and helping them reclaim a sense of responsibility, meaning, and connection. Ethan also enjoys working with student athletes. Having experience as one, he understands the challenges that are faced and brings the qualities developed--- resilience, focus, responsibility, and balance—to the therapeutic work.
