Hi there! My name is Ryan, and I am currently a counselor in training studying at Governors
State University. I am pursuing a master’s degree in counseling with a specialization in Marriage,
Couple, and Family Counseling. I have attained a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Indiana
University. I think that taking the first step in reaching out for help is the most difficult, but it
also is a sign of strength and shows immense bravery and courage. I am honored to have the
privilege of serving unique individuals, couples, and families on their journey to healing and
wellness. I take pride in treating clients with empathy, warmth, unconditional support, kindness,
and authenticity while providing a safe space for healing to occur and progress over time. I
believe that clients have the innate ability and tools needed to reach their full potential. I have
experience working with diverse populations of all ages and treating issues including couple’s
issues, family issues, relationship issues, depression, anxiety, mood disorders, PTSD, ADHD,
social anxiety, parenting issues, trauma, grief, self-esteem, social skill building, career
development, and life adjustment issues.
When I am not helping others through my passion as a counselor, I enjoy attending conferences,
watching and attending sporting events, exercising, playing basketball, listening to and making
music, attending concerts, and spending time with my girlfriend and family.

Something fun to know about me is I am a self-taught music producer who also holds a
certificate in audio engineering and music production. The types of music I enjoy making
include Electronic Dance Music and Hip-Hop beats.

Thank you for considering me as your counselor.
