In today’s fast-moving world, kids and adults face constant pressure—from school, work, relationships, and major life changes. I’m passionate about helping people navigate these challenges with clarity and resilience. I support children and teens dealing with anxiety, stress, and depression, and I help adults manage the demands of daily life, , and personal growth. Whether you’re facing a major change or just feeling stuck, I offer an integrative approach to help you process, grow, and develop the tools to feel more grounded and empowered, regardless of what life throws at you.
While I do prescribe medication, it's just one option in the toolbox. But there are always other tools worth exploring as well. Let's talk about sleep habits, food choices, & fitness routines. Let's talk about social connection, meditation, & supplements. Let’s start where you are, with the resources you have available, & move forward from there.
My background includes 6 years in the Marine Corps Reserves, construction work, nightlife marketing, years of driving trucks in the oil fields of WY & ND, 3 years as an ER nurse, admit nurse in a children's psychiatric hospital, & a 2700 mile hike on the Pacific Crest Trail. That's some of my story, give me a call and let's see how I can help with yours.

I work with men struggling with addiction, anxiety, depression, and trauma. My goal is to address mens' mental health in a way that makes sense to men and my approach is integrative, meaning a combination of medication, therapy, nutrition, and movement. The therapy I offer draws from DBT, somatic therapy, and solutions focused therapy. Let's figure out what's broken and come up with a plan!

I use a combination of medication management, psychotherapy, and integrative psychiatry. I approach each patient as an individual and treat the entire person, not just the symptoms. It's a collaborative approach and each patient has unique needs impacting their overall function in life.
