Have you ever thought of your Entire Life as being a web of relationships? I do. I see your life as having 4 Key Areas of Relationship: 1) With your SELF, 2) With OTHERS, 3) With local Community and the World, 4) And possibly, With Substances, or other Vices. When any 1 or more of these is stressful or out of balance, symptoms occur or worsen. Uncomfortable feelings of transition/change, anxiety, depression, grief, loss, internal or external conflict, feeling hopeless or stuck or angry, or alone, without support or solutions. The list goes on. It is my Mission to help you to feel rapid relief and to facilitate healing/change.

Do you ever feel like you don’t have the space or time to breathe? Like you’re in survival mode more than thriving? Taking the first step to look for a therapist is a brave decision that I applaud you for. In working together, we can explore the difference between where you are and where you want to be. You can expect to be welcomed into a safe and nonjudgmental environment. I believe the most important aspect of participating in therapy is developing a supportive and trusting relationship with your therapist where you can feel free to explore your thoughts and feeling without fear of judgement.

You deserve a life that leaves you excited to wake up every morning! You are taking a huge step by being here, and I am so glad you are!

I love supporting men to evolve as lovers through exploring their family environment and healing past trauma, guilt, shame or anything else that is holding them back from the authenticity and intimacy they seek in all their relationships.

We are an inclusive and empowering team of practitioners that believe that you are more than just your symptoms and your diagnosis. We believe that mental health issues can arise when there is an imbalance or disruption in one or more areas of an individual's life.

Our patterns paint the picture of our everyday experience. I believe in the importance of slowing down and observing these patterns with acceptance and curiosity (exploring mind, body, and spirit) in order to shift the way we interact with different aspects of our lives. As we slow down and re-evaluate our own truth, the models of the world we have subscribed to begin to shift as does our ability to be open to new and different possibilities.

Figuring out what we're thinking and feeling is an important task that can help us figure out how to go after what we really value. I help people, especially men, identify their thoughts and feelings so they can pursue what they value and communicate more effectively with the important people in their life. I have almost 10 years of experience working with people to figure out what's important and pursue it in a way that builds confidence and improves well-being.

In our lifetime, we find ourselves at many crossroads, and we can feel stuck or at a loss for direction. Whether you're trying to figure out if you're in the best relationship, which career path to take, how to manage difficult family or work relationships, or how to finally make that one big change you've been wanting to make, you're not alone. Life is challenging, the options can feel overwhelming, and it's easy to feel lost and lonely; we've all been there, many times. You don't have to wander and struggle alone; I'm here to guide and support you, and provide ideas, skills, and even scientific research to help you decide.

Sometimes people hit a wall. Things that used to be satisfying, like career, relationships, or hobbies don't light them up the way they did when they were younger. All the sleepless nights worrying about "why?" just lead to a useless cycle. I help people, aged 25-85, who have "hit the wall" and are ready to find a healthy way through to the other side. My clients are sick to death of repeating the same unsatisfying patterns, but can't seem to stop or change. They feel stressed, ashamed, shut-down, or depressed and don't feel nearly enough love, joy, optimism, or creativity.
