I work with individuals and would love to help you experience what it means to be known, loved, and accepted, and to feel worthy as you are—by working through fear, anxiety, guilt, and building healthy self-esteem. Together we will look at how your childhood relationships impact current relationships so that you have the opportunity to take risks and make new choices towards healthy relationships. I use EMDR Therapy (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) to move you from debilitating impacts of trauma and pain to greater places of healing and emotional freedom. .

Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure why certain patterns keep repeating in their lives. Our experiences, beginning in early childhood and continuing into the present, shape how we relate to ourselves and others.
Psychotherapy can help, whether you are dealing with anxiety, a situational challenge, or long-term relational struggles. Together, we can develop a deeper understanding of your inner world and emotional patterns, creating space for meaningful and lasting change. In therapy, I prioritize a relationship that fosters openness and collaboration, and I tailor my approach to your unique needs.

You’re the type of person who dreams big, sets ambitious goals, and feels most alive when you’re striving for something meaningful. But sometimes, it feels like the weight of your own expectations is too much to carry. Burnout sneaks in, perfectionism ties your hands, and the fear of being “just okay” stops you from even beginning. You might find yourself in cycles of pushing hard and then pulling away, unsure how to break free. Deep down, you wonder if there’s a way to embrace your drive without it driving you to exhaustion.

I have been in practice since 2007 and have been featured on ABC, NBC, and KCAL as an expert psychologist. I work primarily with men who have hit “rock bottom” and would like help getting up. These men are often in crisis when we first meet. The issues I address are typically related to unhealthy sexual behaviors, infidelity, broken relationships, drugs/alcohol, dishonesty/lying, financial recklessness, and gambling. My therapy approach is a combination of psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral, and the 12-Step recovery model. I also share insight from my own painful but redemptive recovery journey.

Do you feel weighed down by anxiety, depression, grief, trauma-family, couple stress, or past experiences that are hard to move beyond? It can feel distressing to stay stuck in the same unhelpful patterns, even with insight and effort.

Being a man today can feel isolating - pressure to succeed, uncertainty about what matters, and no clear place to talk about it. Maybe success at work just isn’t hitting like it used to. Or you look like you’re holding it together, while inside, doubt, distraction, or overthinking are running the show.
Many of the men I work with are successful on the outside, but feel stuck, disconnected, or unsure about what's next.
I specialize in helping you zoom out and see your life more clearly. Together, we’ll reconnect you with what matters and map out practical steps towards an aligned, meaningful future.
