There has been a major shift for men in our culture. In a previous generation it was considered wise to "cut off" from your emotional self. That style is no longer effective for men. Today men are seeking greater self-awareness. They need to be more aware of their emotions so that they can navigate relationships with strength and wisdom. I have a relaxed style and I believe humor is a part of the healing process. I am interested in helping men move from distress, confusion and pain to clarity, peace, and self-acceptance.

You've been there and done that. You've tried a variety of ways to jump start your life and feel more alive but nothing has helped to really ignite that fire or passion within. Functional anxiety and depression has become a way of life but you know there's more to life than what you experience day to day...a lot more. Every day it's palpable...you feel an ache, a longing deep inside that hasn't yet been satisfied but it's elusive and you don't know how to get there or where to start. You've never been more eager and ready to step up and do whatever it takes to experience that level of freedom, aliveness, and soulful living.

People often seek therapy following life changes where customary ways of coping are no longer sufficient to meet the demands of their world. I consider the focus of my work as a therapist the development of a safe and trusting relationship where I can help a person discuss difficult feelings as well as identify problematic interpersonal patterns that may be getting in the way of personal goals and successful relationships. I then work closely and collaboratively with my client to develop creative and effective ways to move past these roadblocks.

Welcome! My approach with clients is based on their individual needs. I used evidence-based practices to help clients identify and achieve their goals. I want my clients to feel empowered and ready to succeed. I believe strongly in the power of self-compassion and working toward balance in our lives.

I believe that my role in counseling is to ultimately help my clients see the power they have in addressing and finding the best solutions for the issues that are present in their lives. I strongly believe that no one is without strengths and that the therapeutic process should emphasize an individual’s best qualities while also acknowledging the potential for growth.

When we are handed the pieces to the puzzle that is our life, rarely are we provided a picture to guide us where to put them. Not knowing what the end result will be can cause frustration and lead to a feeling of helplessness or hopelessness. Through the use of integrated therapy techniques, I can introduce you to a new perspective or tools that you can use immediately to experience relief. I practice therapy with the belief that each individual is unique and has the potential to grow through self-discovery. I enjoy creating a therapeutic relationship based on empathy and respect.

Have you ever wondered if you have ADHD or a related disorder?  Were you diagnosed previously but are still struggling with symptoms?  Living with undiagnosed or undertreated Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADD/ADHD), as well as co-occurring mental health issues, can be overwhelming, exhausting, discouraging, and even dangerous. The day to day experience of living with ADHD is complex and an intense lived experience that few clinicians understand, let alone know how to treat.  That's why I'm here to help!  I offer both specialized therapy for ADHD and assessments for ADHD and related disorders.

Anxiety, depression, relationship issues, loss of employment, and countless other challenges can lead to loss of direction and loss of hope. Maybe you feel stuck by your present or your past. I've been there too. When the cloud of struggle keeps you from moving forward, it is important to share your story. You were uniquely created, and your response to the world is yours alone. Sharing your story takes courage, but on the other side is healing, wholeness and your fullest life.
