Our Coaches & Trainers

Brett Merle has dedicated more than 15 years to at risk youth. At the age of 16, he himself attended a youth wilderness therapy program in Idaho. This gives him a unique perspective as both a participant and later as a wilderness guide and youth counselor working with at risk teens.

Brett went on to become a United States Army Airborne Ranger, earning a bronze star and purple heart while in combat in 1989. After his term of service, Brett went to work for wilderness programs, residential programs, and crisis residential programs.

Then in 1997, he founded his own wilderness therapy program, " SageWalk," out of Bend, OR. Although he later sold his program, he continues to work with Journeys Adolescent Transport Services as a crisis youth transition mediator and continues to help families locate runaway teens.

He holds a first degree black belt in Kenpo Juijitsu, is a PCS (positive control systems) non violent verbal/ physical intervention instructor, has his current cpr/ first aid card and is registered with the California trustline to legally be able to transport to/ from/ within the state of California.

As a Youth Program Consultant, Brett shares his vast experience in creating, owning and running programs for at risk youth.

As a Parent Coach, Brett helps parents find the balance of discipline, compassion, and shift the focus of the relationship to mentoring parent style which fosters awareness, confidence, responsibility, and accountability.

As a Teen Coach, Brett brings his unique experience, helping teens navigate the transition years to adulthood. He believes in empowering teens as they step into adulthood, helping them discover their strengths, be aware of ways to improve, and believe in achieving their dreams.

Brett brings a vast array of experience and rich background to the Expanding Potentials team.
