About

I'm a conditionally Licensed Pastoral Counselor (LPC-C) in the state of Maine, under the supervision of Erin Latulippe, LCSW, and Denis Noonan, LPC. I received my Master of Divinity (MDiv) from Northeastern Seminary in Rochester, NY, and I also hold a Master of Arts in Public Policy, and a Bachelor of Science in Religion. I have been providing formal and informal pastoral care in various settings for over 15 years, including the local church and the United States Navy. I have over 17 years of service with the United States Navy. I have worked as a Submariner, Navy Diver, and now as a Navy Chaplain assigned as the Battalion Chaplain of a United States Marine Corps Reserve Infantry Battalion. Prior to starting Pine Coast Counseling I worked as the Pastor of Community Care at Curtis Lake Church in Sanford, ME. I volunteer as a Chaplain for both the Kennebunk, ME Police Department and Pine Tree Search and Rescue,. I am an ordained minister holding credentials with the Conservative Congregational Christian Conference (CCCC). I live in southern York County, Maine, with my wife and two daughters. When I am not working or studying I enjoy going on outdoor adventures with my oldest daughter, working out, and occasionally getting in some surfing or golfing.
