You’re likely here because you’re experiencing some kind of distress or pain and you’re looking for relief from it. To make matters worse, you’re having to sift through hundreds of therapists, probably only adding to the distress if I had to guess…there’s a lot of us to choose from, after all. I’ve been the client searching for a therapist and quite honestly, it sucks. So, I feel glad you’ve landed here. Here’s a bit about me, how I approach therapy and who I work with. I'm a father, husband, and someone who cares very deeply. I work primarily from the belief that we're significantly shaped by our environments and relationships.
These environments and relationships aren't always easy on us, however. They can cause quite a bit of pain. So I approach my therapeutic work from a place of genuine compassion and sincere understanding. I see the work we're doing as delicate business and work hard to help my clients achieve the relief, change and healing that they're seeking.
My approach is psychodynamic at the core. I have ample experience helping adults, teens and couples work through anxiety, depression, relationship issues, grief/loss and trauma. I take my work with my clients very seriously and would be honored to be part of your journey as you courageously take the step of getting to know yourself better.

Men's Group - starting May 9th, 2023

A safe, process-driven psychotherapy group for men to explore and share about specific issues they're experiencing, receive support and care from other men, and learn that they're ultimately not alone in what they're experiencing. This is the group that will begin to help men finally experience some of the changes they've been after for years, while feeling dramatically less alone in the process. Topics covered include but are not limited to: loneliness, anxiety, relationship issues, professional challenges, depression, fear, lack of motivation, feeling directionless, and more.
