Richard brings depth and a wealth of life experience to his coaching practice. He is an Advanced NPE (not parent expected) Trauma Recovery Coach with 28 years of post-discovery life experience. In 1995, at the age of 37, he made the discovery that his biological father was not the man on his birth certificate. His journey has included the uncovering and resolution of childhood trauma, recovery from addiction, and the processing and healing of the midlife / identity crises that are part of the NPE dynamic. He is the father of three adult sons, co-founder of an authentic relating men’s group, a non-traditional university student working on a Masters in Counseling Psychology, and a Breathwork Facilitator. He is a skilled guide and coach who seeks to build a solid connection with his clients on their healing journey. Though he does not limit his practice, his focus is on helping those whose lives have been impacted by NPE trauma. He also enjoys working with men and those who are in recovery from substance abuse.
