Marriage and Family Therapist/Coach with extensive experience working with adult men and teens. Although my training was primarily in depth psychology I operate well addressing immediate and practical matters with teens, parents, and men in crisis. A man’s relationships are only as good their personal boundaries. It is essential to drill down and figure out what boundaries really are and to set them assertively at home and work. I will be very supportive of your faith and values (within reason). In the past decade I delved into various homesteading projects. First I operate with a permaculture (perennial based) design philosophy. I am heavily influenced by Joel Salatin and Sally Fallon Morrel who runs the fantastic Westin A. Price foundation. Homesteaders are not experts, they are generalists. They are great at a few things but just okay at many things. Being okay at more things is the plan. Designing and building your first systems will benefit from consulting another generalist.
