He has been in private practice for the last 18 years and was previously employed for over a decade at Willow Creek Community Church where he served as Director of Social Services and Pastoral Care.

Bill offers both individual and relationship counseling. His practice includes treatment and relief for anxiety, depression, life transitions, and emotional, sexual and physical trauma. Many people have difficulty naming their own experiences as abusive or traumatic, but may feel hypervigilant, stuck, or disconnected from their own self, their own feelings and their own “voice”. Bill incorporates EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Somatic Experiencing in treating anxiety, post-traumatic stress and complex trauma. Bill also has advanced training in treating problematic internet pornography use.

Bill is sought out for his approach to life direction and life purpose, mid-life/second-half of life issues and spiritual formation. He has also hosts groups for therapeutic personal story telling.
