Life is filled with challenges that affect each of us in different ways. I believe the way we approach and overcome those challenges allows us to experience life to the fullest. I began my Marriage and Family Psychotherapy practice to use my life experience, education, and passion to help serve the mental health needs of our community. Through my experience in a variety of settings, I discovered that building a supportive relationship through therapy creates a safe place to explore life struggles, understand difficult issues, learn new skills, enrich relationships, and work through situations to lead a more authentic life.

Welcome to my practice. I have about 15 years of clinical experience and have been featured on NBC/KCAL/HLN 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, financial recklessness, gambling, drugs/alcohol, dishonesty/lying, and relational conflicts. 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.

Life's challenges may seem overwhelming at times: you may find yourself stuck in an unproductive pattern, not getting what you want in life, whether it involves your relationship with your family, your significant other, or your children, life lost its happiness.
We can work towards positive change and build on strengths as you seek what is really important to you. Change can shift our thinking and behavior patterns. Change may be connecting with others in an authentic way. Change may mean managing your emotions in a way that empowers you, not weakens. Change can be realizing your own strength and potential for the first time.

Welcome... Do you ever find it difficult to stop the exhausting ongoing negative thoughts on your mind? Do you dream of having a peaceful harmonious relationship with yourself and other important figures in your life? Or, do you simply wonder if therapy works?! Comprehensive research in the effectiveness of therapy versus no therapy indicate that, in fact therapy does work! However, you may wonder how one can possibly talk to a "stranger" about his/her very inner thoughts and feelings? The answer is that it may not be easy for some but it certainly worth a try!
