Therapy is a collaborative process of discernment and self discovery. We all can struggle at times; we need support to explore our inner and outer worlds, to examine our shadows. Through the challenges of this endeavor comes freedom and a greater capacity for you to choose how you want to be in the world. My approach is psychodynamically based, incorporating neuropsychological, mindfulness, and body-based techniques. If you choose to see me, we will explore your conflicts, celebrate your successes, and create the room for you to come to terms with those dynamics inhibiting your satisfaction with life.

I am a Christian counselor/coach and I am passionate about helping men experience freedom from compulsive behaviors and, as a result, a deeper connection with God, themselves, and others. I specialize in helping men struggling with addictive and compulsive behaviors like pornography, sex, drugs, alcohol, food, work, video games, relationships, etc.
After more than 20 years of experience, I have found that true lasting healing does not happen in isolation. Weekly recovery groups provide the accountability, honesty, and brotherhood required for lasting transformation. That is why I now fully focus on the power of group work.

If you’re overwhelmed by your thoughts, stuck in old patterns, or feel like your past keeps showing up in your present, therapy can help. I work with clients to notice what’s happening in their minds and bodies, understand where it comes from, and learn how to respond differently versus react in familiar ways. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, addiction, or relationship stress, we’ll focus on both the daily tools and the deeper roots. I show up with directness and care, helping you build insight, grow self-trust, and create lasting change, on your terms and at your pace (with a gentle nudge if needed from time to time).

Accepting New Clients! ! !
Do you find yourself dealing with things that don’t quite make sense — body aches or tension that won’t go away, trouble sleeping, anxiety, low mood, weight changes, or feeling stuck in the same relationship or family patterns?
Often, these experiences aren’t random or a personal failure. They can be signs that your body is still holding onto stress or trauma — sometimes from earlier in life, sometimes passed down through family dynamics, and often outside of conscious awareness. Your body has been doing its best to protect you, even when it feels exhausting or confusing now.

When should someone seek treatment for sex addiction?
People should seek treatment for sex addiction if they cannot control their sexual thoughts or behaviours to the point that it disrupts their ability to function in daily life, for example by threatening their finances, career, or relationships. This may include spending an excessive amount of time obsessing over sex, planning sex, watching pornography, or masturbating, as well as consistently engaging in risky sexual activities, using sex to escape distressing feelings, or attempting yet failing to control sexual behavior.
What are the most common treatment options for sex addiction?
Psychotherapy is the most common treatment for sex addiction; therapy helps patients better understand their compulsive thoughts and behaviors and develop strategies to manage their desires. Therapy may be supplemented by medications, such as antidepressants, mood stabilizers, anti-androgens, and the alcohol and substance use medication Naltrexone, as well as support groups, such as 12-step programs.
How long does therapy take for sex addiction?
Recovering from compulsive behavior takes time and effort. There’s no precise timeline for treatment, but research suggests 12 therapy sessions may be enough to see change. Treatment for sexual compulsions requires honesty in therapy, a commitment to understanding triggers and developing coping skills, and potential lifestyle changes such as cutting out alcohol or drugs.
What if sex addiction is left untreated?
Compulsive sexual behavior can have serious repercussions if left unaddressed. For example, if sexual obsessions consume the vast majority of a person’s time, they may lose their job. If they can’t stop paying for sex, their finances may suffer. If they’re dishonest in their relationships, their partner may leave them. If they consistently feel shame, they may struggle with anxiety, depression, or loneliness. Therapy can help people develop the tools to manage sexual thoughts and behaviors that feel uncontrollable.
