Feeling lost, stuck, or unsure how to move forward? You’re not alone—and you’re not broken. Life at the highest levels of leadership is demanding, and even the strongest among us carry trauma, loss, and the weight of past experiences. For a while, you may be able to push through. But eventually, the cost shows up—in your clarity, your relationships, and your sense of purpose. That’s not failure—it’s a signal. An invitation to pause, reset, and do the deeper work.

I understand those moments firsthand. I’ve built and exited companies. I’ve also had businesses fail. I’ve coached hundreds of leaders through seasons of growth, crisis, and transition. And for years I’ve facilitated intensives and retreats for people facing trauma, burnout, and major life pivots. Those experiences taught me that real change doesn’t come from grinding harder—it comes from creating space to heal, gain perspective, and reconnect with what matters most.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with a background in Marriage and Family Therapy, I blend proven therapeutic methods with the focus and intensity leaders need to make meaningful progress in days—not months. Whether in a multi-day intensive, a retreat, or ongoing coaching, my goal is to help you resolve the past, reclaim your strength, and step forward with clarity and purpose.

If you’re ready to stop carrying the weight alone, I’d be honored to walk with you through the work of healing and growth.

Hi, I’m Dane.

For me, the most effective therapy joins insight and action.

Simply understanding why you're struggling isn’t really helpful unless it’s linked with practical things you can do to change. In addition to exploring and processing the past, I’ll give you actionable tools like weekly assignments, goal setting, focus and relaxation exercises that can help your life be more manageable and enjoyable.

Education and Specialty Training

On a personal note:

I’ve been married to the same unbelievable woman for almost 25 years, and there’s no one on the planet I’d rather hang out with.  Together we have 5 kids that range from junior high to college age, so that’s pretty crazy.  As a family we do a lot of outdoorsy stuff (backpacking, rock climbing, canoeing) and love to travel around doing weird stuff and seeing what we can see. Personally, I like to build things, write, work on businesses, and follow my curiosity wherever it goes.
