To develop clear insight of awareness towards our instinctual values, I believe it is critical to embrace, validate and acknowledge one’s individuality. Helping clients process the primary distinction between self-identity and where they want to be, is based on genuinely empathizing and understanding ways that we can best serve clients by applying therapeutic modalities that address their biological, physical and social constraints.

If you’re silently struggling with porn addiction, you already know the emotional toll: shame, secrecy, and the frustration of breaking promises to yourself. Whether it’s Pornhub, OnlyFans, cam sites, or endless scrolling, your partner may feel hurt and disconnected. You’re likely overwhelmed by guilt and stuck in patterns you swore you’d quit. Even if you’re not in a relationship, porn may still be affecting your confidence, focus, or ability to connect. It doesn’t have to stay this way. I help men who feel stuck in this cycle break free from compulsive porn use and rebuild intimacy without shame or judgment.

Are you feeling unsatisfied with your connection to your partner? Are you frustrated because you know that you are stuck in a pattern of interaction, but don't know how to change it? Are you happy with your sexual relationship? Our intimate, partner relationships are often among the most important in our lives. When we feel emotionally and physically connected to our partners, we feel at peace and happy. But for a variety of reasons, our intimate relationships can become challenged, leading to feeling emotionally disconnected and adrift from our significant other(s), causing difficulties with communication and relationship satisfaction.

Do you feel like your mind never shuts off? Like no matter how hard you try, the stress, the worry, or the self-doubt just won’t go away? Anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, body image or major life changes can leave you feeling stuck, exhausted, or like you’re constantly falling behind. Maybe school or work feels impossible. Maybe past trauma keeps resurfacing. Whatever it is, you’re tired of feeling like this. You’re ready for things to feel lighter, more manageable—better. Most of all, you’re ready to feel like yourself again. I can help you get there.

Are you a teen or 20 something that has been through something challenging? Are you wildly self-aware of what it is and maybe even how it makes you feel but have no idea how to fix it? Do you notice changes in your relationships with others? Are you more withdrawn than usual or are you getting attached too quickly? You’ve tried journaling, reading up on trauma and maybe you’ve even tried therapy - but nothing has worked. Maybe your challenging event was days, weeks or even years ago but you just can’t shake it. Trauma and traumatic events can have long lasting impacts on our energy, motivation, personality and on our relationships.

Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re navigating them alone. Whether you’re facing loss, anxiety, trauma, or struggles with substance use, it’s not easy to find your way through. I’ve experienced my own share of life transitions, including divorce, the loss of a spouse, and raising three adult children. Therapy was a vital part of my healing process, helping me move forward and find strength during those difficult times.

Living through times of change is challenging! Whether you are dealing with the loss of a marriage or trying to cope with the death of a loved one, times of change are confusing and filled with uncertainty. Questions like, "How do I get to where I want to go?" and "How will I live beyond the pain?" do not seem to have easy answers and often times, talking to a friend or a loved one is not enough. Engaging in a therapeutic relationship can assist you to unleash the past, live in the present and create new dreams for the future.
