So many of us face difficulties and challenges at different points throughout our life. We may feel alone; overwhelmed. Helpless, hopeless. We may become angry with others, and even turn against ourselves. We may struggle to find meaning or purpose in our life. As we search for meaning, and seek understanding, we may lose sight of this moment, and of ourselves. Finding your anchor in the present, recognizing and finding compassion for your healing inner voice and plentiful emotional repertoire is often the first step to cultivating a new relationship with you.

I treat psychological difficulties with a compassionate, yet results-oriented approach. When someone suffers from a medical disorder, a comprehensive assessment of the problem is required in order to obtain an accurate diagnosis. If the diagnosis is incorrect, treatment will repeatedly fail. As a diagnostician, my focus is to treat people, many of whom had been non-responsive to previous psychological / medical treatment, in this same way. Only with a correct diagnosis will treatment be effective. Once determined, goals discussed, a treatment plan in place, the therapy begins. With time and work, individuals grow to experience enhanced emotional health along with interpersonal and professional contentment.

Life can be really hard sometimes, whether you are a college student feeling overwhelmed or a parent watching a child struggle.

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.
