You may look successful and capable while privately feeling anxious, depressed, sexually stuck, ashamed, or unsure what comes next. I work with men navigating sexual dysfunction, pornography concerns, performance anxiety, coming out, relationship stress, career pressure, imposter syndrome, and midlife or quarter-life transitions. Therapy with me is direct, compassionate, practical, and shame-free—focused on reducing shame, building healthier choices, and helping you feel more connected to yourself and others.
I help men and LGBTQ+ adults navigate anxiety, relationships, identity, sexual shame, and life transitions. My style is direct, collaborative, and practical—offering tools, insight, and deeper exploration to reduce distress, strengthen connection, and create a more authentic life.
Reaching out can feel hard, especially when you’ve carried things alone. Therapy offers a place to be heard, understood, and supported as you move toward meaningful change. When you’re ready, I’m here to help you begin.
