Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next move? Whether you're navigating school, work, relationships, parenthood, or just life in today’s world, you're not alone. At MENtal Wellness, I specialize in helping individuals break through emotional barriers, build healthier relationships, and redefine what strength really means. I get it—talking isn’t always easy. Many guys grow up being told to "man up" or keep their feelings to themselves. But bottling it up only works for so long. Therapy is a safe, real space where you can drop the armor and start figuring things out—at your pace, in your way.
As a man, father, and mentor, I offer insight that’s both professional and personal. I know that strength isn’t about shutting down—it’s about showing up. I work with teens dealing with anxiety, anger, or school struggles, and individuals facing family, friend and/or relationship issues or life transitions, parents seeking balance, and/or healing.
Real talk. Real strategies. Real change. My approach combines evidence-based methods with practical tools tailored to how life and emotion are experienced. It’s not just talk—it’s forward movement. If you're ready to do the work or just curious about what change might look like reach out for a free consultation. Therapy for men doesn’t have to be complicated

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
