I know that starting therapy is not easy. But neither is living the life of disappointments and regrets. If you feel you are in a dead end, if your job is boring and ungratifying and the relationships are toxic or lack depth and zest, if you struggle with finding your place in this world or even question whether life is worth living, perhaps it is time to examine your life choices and remove the blocks that hold you from finding meaning, happiness, and purpose.

I specialize in helping individuals and couples strengthen their relationships, better manage stress, anxiety, and challenging life transitions. When we are anxious and overwhelmed, we can feel disconnected from others. This often triggers self-doubt and poor decision-making, which can chip away at our self-esteem and unravel our important relationships. I help clients identify the core issues that are negatively impacting their lives and relationships, and keeping them from achieving their goals and living life to the fullest.

Connecting with the right therapist can help us lighten negative feelings from week to week. Often, these feelings can leave us feeling burdened, and reaching out to loved ones can seem impossible. Trusting a therapist enough to give them a call or an email can seem so risky.

In facing life’s challenges, I believe in the importance of asking ourselves, “What’s right with me?” and identifying and building on our strengths. I enjoy accompanying people in exploring themselves with non-judgmental curiosity as they develop greater awareness of their thoughts, feelings, and ways of dealing with whatever life has in store. How have these been influenced by personal experiences growing up and by larger social factors? Gaining this insight allows us to discover what changes might be right for us or to come to accept ourselves just as we are.

I specialize in working with men, and those curious about therapy but maybe hesitant to try. I also specialize in working with women who are more comfortable with a male therapist. Men especially have been taught to bury their feelings and power through tough times. That therapy is for weak people. This has left so many men feeling stressed, misunderstood, angry, and left to manage their inner pain in silence. Nobody taught us how to feel and express our feelings in a healthy way, leaving us to navigate a challenging world without crucial skills. My goal is to provide a judgement-free space to learn and grow in a relaxed setting
