My work as a psychologist is rooted in a profound belief that by recognizing and honoring our complex, messy life stories with honesty and gentleness, we lay the foundation to heal the obstacles preventing us from building fulfilling, meaningful lives. Throughout life, we all create narratives about ourselves to help us survive. These narratives are shaped by myriad factors (individual life experiences, relationships, intergenerational legacies, and experiences of oppression/privilege, belonging/rejection, among others). Over time, our narratives and coping mechanisms fall short. We wonder, what went wrong?Why? What's wrong with me?

Life can get complicated and there is no handbook on how to handle things like depression, anxiety, addiction and relationship problems. It is important to know two things: 1. you are not alone, 2. challenges are always opportunities to grow and change your life. You are probably here because it's time to "do something different." Let us help guide you through this journey!

Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, or struggling to cope with difficult emotions? I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, mood-related concerns or emotional overwhelm, and substance use/recovery. Together, we’ll explore the underlying patterns contributing to distress while building practical tools for lasting change. I strive to create a collaborative and supportive therapeutic space where clients feel understood, empowered, and appropriately challenged to support meaningful growth and lasting change.

The most important predictor of a successful therapeutic experience is a positive, collaborative relationship with your therapist. If you feel supported and safe, deep healing and meaningful change can occur. I am dedicated to fostering a culturally sensitive, honest, and containing space to help you work through the struggles of your inner and outer world.

I have a creative approach with my clients, and find it most important to work in collaboration with them, as a team. Together we will find ways to laugh, even at the hardest things. This is all possible if compassion and respect, are at the foundation of every aspect of our interactions. The solutions will come, if a relationship between us can be formed and nurtured. I value my clients input and feedback and appreciate when they challenge me. I tend to bring my own lived experience into every session, to make my clients feel comfortable and know they are not alone. I too have overcome trauma and my own emotional challenges.

If anxiety, depression, grief, ADHD, or chronic illness is making it hard to feel grounded in your daily life, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to manage it by yourself.
Many of the clients I work with feel overwhelmed, tense, or stuck on high alert, even when things look “fine” on the outside. Mental health difficulties can affect sleep, focus, relationships, and your sense of safety in the world, but therapy with me can be a place to slow things down and begin feeling steadier again.

Mental health challenges are due to the aftereffects of traumatic experiences. Trauma can place a strain on your family, work, relationships, and even cause issues with self-worth. I specialize in trauma therapy along with treating personality disorders, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and addiction. All these disorders can look different from person to person, and that is where our therapeutic journey of empowerment and self-exploration begins. I concentrate on creating a safe space of growth and self-discovery through unconditional positive regard, emotional regulation, and guided activities.

For over 30 years I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating the challenges and transitions that arise throughout life. I work with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, parenting concerns, emotional dysregulation, life transitions, school and social adjustments, communication challenges, and the lasting impact of unresolved emotional experiences. I have a passion for helping children, teens, adults, couples, and families move out of cycles of conflict, disconnection, and distress toward greater understanding, resilience, and connection.

Recognizing that the path to healing often feels like navigating a complex landscape of expectations and pressures, I offer a supportive, judgment-free space to explore the parts of your life that feel out of alignment. Whether you are struggling with relationship conflicts, digital boundary-blurring, or the shame often tied to compulsive behaviors, I believe change begins when we move from 'surviving' to choosing a life of intentionality, integrity, and wholeness. Together, we will create resilience through coping skills, self-acceptance, and connection to others—leading you out of the shadows and toward meaningful relationships.

My therapeutic approach mainly focuses on helping my clients identify their strengths to help alleviate anxiety, depression, and trauma. I am a firm believer that our childhood experiences contribute to our beliefs, behavioral patterns, and selecting a romantic partner. Therapy is a process! To allow ourselves to be intimate and vulnerable with someone about our experiences and trauma can be daunting. As a therapist, it is my goal to help validate, create a safe environment and help understand aspects of lived experiences.

You're probably not falling apart. You're functioning — career, relationships, responsibilities met. And yet something is off. A quiet weight that doesn't lift. A distance between who you are in the world and how you actually feel inside.
Most men I work with aren't in crisis. They're managing exceptionally well by every external measure. What's harder is knowing what you actually feel, asking for help before things get worse, and believing that what's happening inside you is worth paying attention to.
It is.
