About John Baker

Have you felt disappointed by previous counseling experiences?

In 30 plus years of counseling, I’ve seen a lot of people who were frustrated by poor counseling experiences. Good people who invested their time and hard earned dollars into counseling that produced little or no results. In my opinion, that is just not acceptable. That won’t happen in my office.

While I can’t guarantee specific outcomes, I refuse to give anything less than my best to everyone I see. I counsel families, couples, and individuals. I have special expertise in step-parenting, blending families, and Christian spiritual counseling. 

I’ve served as a counselor since 1989, when I earned a Master of Counseling degree from Arizona State University.

​I love to watch people grow! And I love to help it happen.
