Mediation in Legal Disputes, Executive (Life) Coaching, Forensics, Mood & Anxiety disorders; Couples & Relationship Conflicts; Trauma & Loss and with Adolescents.
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.

Welcome to my practice. I have been in practice since 2007 and have been featured on ABC, NBC, and KCAL 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.

Becoming a Marriage and Family Therapist stemmed from my personal journey, sparked by my own struggles to understand my identity as a man and a father. At a crucial point in my life, I wrestled with profound questions about my identity and how to be the best father I could be. To find clarity, I began my own therapeutic journey, seeking the guidance of a compassionate therapist to address my challenges. It was during this transformative period that I realized my true calling: to support others in their journey towards hope, growth, and profound transformation.

Life coaching is an increasingly popular profession that has no specific licensing or academic requirements. Though psychologists also often consider themselves life coaches, these therapists don't focus on treating mental illness. Instead, they help individuals realise their goals in work and in life.
