You’re not broken — you’re searching. Maybe you’ve found success in your life, but something still feels hollow. Maybe you’re overwhelmed by a loss, a transition, or the steady pressure of being human in a world that doesn’t stop moving. Or maybe you’ve started asking big questions about life: Who am I now? What really matters to me? How do I live fully knowing life is fragile and uncertain? These questions can shake your foundations — but also open the door to deeper meaning, clarity, and freedom. I get it: as an adult with ADHD, I know what it is like to yearn for answers to these questions, too.
My approach draws from 20 years of experience in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), trauma-focused treatments (like Cognitive Processing Therapy and Prolonged Exposure), and Zen Buddhist practice. I’m also a priest and sensei in the Zen tradition.
At the heart of my work is a simple conviction: that we grow not by avoiding life’s hard questions, but by turning toward them with honesty and courage. There is meaning in the muck. Therapy doesn’t offer tidy answers. But it can offer a space for truth, insight, and grounded action — a space where you’re not alone in the search.
