Some seek to assuage their suffering with psychoactive substances (illicit and licit) and this leads only to addiction and abdication of autonomy over one's authentic self.
An effective approach to the eradication or attenuation of the existential angst that lies at the core of most psychological maladies requires an integrative approach. As such, Amenistic Analysis is an amalgam of Existentialism, Stoicism, Asceticism, Transcendentalism, and Minimalistic Meditation.

Are you struggling with substance addiction and interested in pursuing sobriety?
I believe in showing up as my authentic self to connect with you in a genuine way. Sessions with me are all about curiosity, and looking closely at your thoughts and feelings to figure out what we can learn from them. In therapy, we will work as a team to identify patterns that aren't working and ways to replace them with new behaviors that do serve you.

When my son was 6 years old he told me that he did not want to play baseball but instead wanted to play soccer. I told him that was fine, but because I knew little about it, it might be harder for me to help coach him. He said to me, "That's alright dad, I'll teach you about soccer then you can teach me back."

A "desire line" is a foot path made by us – people walking over time, as we discover that the path made for us isn't the easiest, safest or most fun route to walk. Desire lines remind us that we are not alone with our longing, frustration or irritation, nor are we alone in our search for fulfillment, peace or pleasure. Desire lines are also a good metaphor for life. Maybe you are on an unchosen or changing path and you're looking for a therapist to help navigate new territory.

If you're struggling with your relationship with food, your body, or substances — or watching someone you love struggle — you're in the right place.
I believe your struggles don't exist in a vacuum. The culture you grew up in, the messages you absorbed, the dynamics passed down through your family- all of it matters, and all of it has a place in our work together. I've also worked extensively in higher levels of care with people facing eating disorders and substance use alongside co-occurring diagnoses.

With extensive experience in treating trauma, addiction, relationship and family challenges, mood and anxiety disorders, and life's everyday stressors, I'm here to help you feel seen, supported, and empowered.
Many of the challenges we face today—whether in relationships, habits, mood, anxiety, or motivation—are rooted in earlier life experiences that may not have been fully processed or understood. These past experiences can shape how we see ourselves, how we relate to others, and how we respond to stress. In our work together, we’ll develop an understanding of how your past is influencing your present, uncover meaningful insights, reduce emotional overwhelm, and begin to shift unhelpful patterns. From there, we’ll build practical, personalized tools that empower you to make lasting changes and move toward the life you want to live.

I am called when you have a loved one that needs help for an addiction, whether that be a substance like alcohol, heroin, prescription drugs or a process addiction like gambling, but is resistant to getting the treatment they need.
Doing a successful intervention takes solid, clinical knowledge of addiction, as well as experience, finesse, and respect for the patient that is suffering from this disorder and their families. I have all of these qualities. If you would like to see me discuss this, please look at a segment I’ve done on The Dr. Oz Show: https://bit.ly/3iRWnde
