I believe in a real experience, with real people, and as such I strive to understand the specific needs and afflictions of each client, individualizing the therapeutic experience and counseling treatment one person at a time. Though afflictions may manifest similarly across clients, each person perceives and responds in different ways, making treatment individualization essential to positively promoting client growth and wellness. Formal education and personal life experiences have provided an opportunity for diversified understanding of individual client uniqueness.

Before private practice, I supported children in residential treatment and have extensive experience with treating childhood trauma.
You are good inside. No matter your experiences, strengths, needs, and goals. And maybe you want to expand on this goodness, or potentially you have things that need to be addressed. Sometimes it can feel like there are endless walls, whether that be navigating difficulties in our daily lives, moving through life transitions, or the same overwhelming thoughts that pattern our experiences. These can all impact our ability to have meaningful relationships, and it can be difficult to identify the source of the struggle or understand why it feels this way, especially when we are feeling overwhelmed and alone.

Over a decade ago, I decided to step away from my career as a teacher, which I loved, and embark on a path of self-discovery. This change was difficult, but I knew I would continue to do what excites me: helping people see the world differently. My journey took me to several places, eventually landing in a small village in southern Africa. It was here that I learned firsthand the importance of mental well-being. Although my job in this village was to teach, the people there taught me more than I could ever teach them.

Hi, I’m John. I’m here to help you feel more like yourself again—less weighed down, more grounded, and more at peace with where you are in life. A lot of us learn ways to cope that made sense at the time but end up getting in the way later. We find ourselves stuck in patterns that don’t reflect who we really are or what we want anymore.
Therapy with me is about slowing down, sorting through the mess, and figuring out what actually works for you. I’m direct, honest, and not afraid to ask tough questions—but I also believe therapy should feel like a conversation, not a lecture.

See More Therapists FAQ - About Child Therapy
When does a child need to see a therapist?
Children naturally experience emotional ups and downs. Sometimes, though, they need support from a professional. A child may benefit from therapy if their emotions or behaviors change significantly within a short period of time. For example, if a child usually spends time with friends after school but begins isolating in their room, further inquiry is warranted. Other areas for concern include altered sleep patterns, lack of appetite, intense anger, irritability, or hopelessness, or developmental regression in young children (bedwetting, thumb-sucking).
What can a child therapist help with?
A therapist can help with any difficult experience a child may encounter growing up, including learning problems or anxiety related to school, relationship challenges with friends or parents, bullying, intense emotions or phobias, divorce and family dynamics, or the death of a pet or loved one. A therapist can help children process their experience and develop coping skills in an age-appropriate way
What therapy types are most suitable for children?
Children can benefit from different forms of therapy, including family therapy, parent-child interaction therapy, play therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and exposure therapy, depending on their condition. Play therapy is a great option for younger children who may not be able to fully articulate their feelings. In this approach, kids play with toys and games while a therapist observes and helps the child express their emotions and develop coping skills.
Do I need to attend therapy with my child?
Parents are an integral part of a child’s therapy, but the specifics of their involvement vary. If your child is young, you may attend most or all sessions; if your child is older, you may attend a few sessions or none; sometimes a therapist may ask you to have a session on your own. Whatever the arrangement, you should expect to work collaboratively with the therapist, your child, and your family members to take steps to help support your child.
How can I tell if a therapist is a good fit for my child?
A child needs to feel comfortable opening up about their thoughts and feelings, so if your child feels a sense of comfort, ease, and trust with their therapist, that’s a great sign. In addition, a therapist is a good fit for your child if the two can communicate well together; a clinician should be able to communicate clearly, effectively, and in an age-appropriate manner.
