You might look like you have it together but internally, you feel anxious, exhausted, or stuck in patterns you thought you would have outgrown by now. Maybe you overthink every interaction, replay conversations long after they end, or struggle to quiet your mind at night. A lot of the men I work with have never really talked to anyone about this stuff. They're high-functioning, self-aware enough to know something needs to change and skeptical enough to need a therapist who's going to be direct with them. That's where I come in.

Therapy with me isn't about processing your feelings for an hour and going home. We'll figure out what's actually driving the patterns, challenge what's not working, and build something more useful. I'll be real with you, and I'll expect the same in return.

If this resonates, I offer a free consultation so we can see if working together feels like the right fit.

Most of my clients are in their 20s and 30s, working hard, building something, and quietly wondering if this is all supposed to feel so heavy. For men especially, therapy can feel like uncharted territory. I work to make it worth your time

I pull from CBT, psychodynamic work, IFS, and ACT depending on what you actually need. The goal is never to fit you into a method, it's to figure out what's going to help you move.
