He is the founder of In Touch Parenting, a company devoted to helping today’s busy parents calm the chaos, raise emotionally intelligent kids, and nurture families that thrive.You’ll be glad to know that as a sought after Marriage and Family Therapist Steve has been helping families relate better since 2000.

As an Ordained Minister Steve also helps Christian parents develop an integrated approach to raising children: one that’s down to earth, practical, and carefully grounded in two domains—theology and the latest psychological research on the best parenting practices.
To make your life easier, Steve has taken his in-depth knowledge into live parenting seminars which are quite popular because they are rich with humor, insightful stories, and experiential exercises that help you get and stay connected with your kids. For your convenience, his sensitive yet no-nonsense approach is broken down into small, manageable, and easy-to-learn steps that you can use right away!
And that’s just part of his story. After enjoying several successful years as a thoroughbred jockey, Steve’s passion shifted from riding horses to helping parents fine-tune how they act, react, and interact with their children. Steve puts it this way:
“I went from riding races with the winner’s circle in mind to helping parents get (and stay) in the winner’s circle with their kids. It’s my purpose in life and I love it! When I keynote speak or counsel parents in my office, I get a deep sense of joy when they share a big breakthrough or success story with me because I was there to help!”

On a personal note:
Here’s a little more about me:
Favorite Sports
Surfing: Carving glassy waves at or just before sunrise makes me feel alive! It’s called “dawn-patrol.”
Mountain Biking: Call me strange, but I love peddling up steep hills and then facing my fears and traversing back down the single track.
Basketball: Still a Lakers fan.
Horse Racing: Nothing on earth compares to riding a thoroughbred down the stretch in front of 30k screaming people!!! As a former jockey, I love watching the Breeders Cup and seeing my friends win big races on T.V.. It helps me stay in touch with a sport that’s still near and dear to my heart.
