Professional Background

Kevin lives and works in Frisco, Texas. He enjoys working with individuals, couples, and families. He has worked in practice practice as well as an agency providing outpatient services. Kevin saw the need for counseling focusing on promoting strong families in the Frisco area, and founded 5th Street Family Counseling 5 years ago. He believes that by identifying and focusing on achievable steps, people can work through their most difficult challenges. After identifying goals together with Kevin, clients will work with him to create a plan that best fits them and their family, helping them to find fulfillment. Kevin is a Christian, and provides counseling from a Christian perspective.

Understanding that choosing counseling can be a difficult, Kevin makes getting started with counseling an easy process. His office is a welcoming, safe, place to be. He treats each of his clients as unique, with different preferences in a counselor and seeks to adjust his style to accommodate that. While he uses his professional discretion to determine needs, he welcomes feedback from clients. If you have a need that you would like Kevin to adjust to, don’t hesitate to ask.

When Kevin is not working, he enjoys spending time with family and watching his amazing kids grow. He also takes time to enjoy reading, traveling, and learning new languages. His favorite place to visit is the Baltic nation of Estonia.

In his own time, Kevin loves to explore how to apply virtue-based ethics into life and seeks excellences in everything he does.
