Rancho Palos Verdes, CA 90275
My specialty is Christian counseling, and the approach I utilize most often is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a proven highly effective treatment method.
A lot of healing can happen in the context of a supportive and caring relationship. If you are struggling with issues such as anxiety, depression, marriage/relationship problems, parenting/family issues, painful life experiences or unhealthy habits, I consider it a privilege to walk that journey with you for a little while -- talking through feelings and circumstances, and helping you find a path toward change and healing. As a Christian, I believe that our emotional and spiritual sides are intertwined, and I incorporate Biblical principles in all aspects of the counseling.

As a therapist, I know that sometimes, you may just need someone to listen and walk through a difficult season in life with you. You may find yourself in need of a safe place to explore your thoughts and feelings about dating, a significant relationship or a life transition. You may be coping with pain in ways that are self-destructive, or feeling "stuck", sad, and/or overwhelmed by worry. I offer understanding and caring, compassionate feedback. My goal is to help you tap into your own inner wisdom, so that you can heal, grow, and thrive- ultimately living a more fulfilling life.

As a male therapist specializing in male psychology, I bring a nuanced perspective to the therapeutic process. I firmly believe that masculinity, in its essence, is not toxic or a problem to be solved. Instead, I view masculinity as a diverse and multifaceted aspect of human identity that deserves celebration and exploration. My goal is to create a therapeutic space where men can embrace their masculinity authentically, free from societal pressure or stereotypes. My mission is to break down the barriers that prevent men from seeking help and to challenge the stigma surrounding men's mental health.
