His Counseling Specialties are: depression, anger, anxiety, sexual addiction, gender identity issues, premarital preparation, marital problems, and adolescent issues. He has a heart for seeing people find hope and healing where there has been pain and brokenness.

He is excited to be part of HeartLife, committed to the care of souls and Christian counseling. He greatly anticipates what God will do through this ministry.
Steve’s life verse is:
"For it is by grace that you have been saved, through faith and this not from yourselves, it is a gift from God and not by works so that no one can boast.” He believes that it is important to preach the gospel to one’s self daily remembering that God sending Jesus to sacrifice his life for us is the most important life changing event in human history."
