Brad specializes in couples/marriage therapy, young adults in transition, parenting issues, adult ADHD, addictions, and trauma.
I see therapy as a bolder endeavor than “learning new skills”. That’s part of it, but ultimately it is an organic conversation between human beings where growth and change are the expectation. Real change happens through the dynamic, ongoing conversations in the therapeutic relationship, where the person comes to know themselves more deeply.

My professional background has primarily focused on qEEg, neurofeedback training, couples therapy, group therapy, sex therapy, men's issues, and existential crises, with experience working mostly with adult populations and psychological concerns.
My ideal patient is someone who may be struggling to find relief with just psychotherapy and/or psychotropic medications alone. This is a person who feels stuck and wants to seek alternative approaches towards improving their mental health. I'm a great fit for those who value a therapist who does not “feel like a therapist.” I bring a very down to earth and playful presence to my therapeutic space that makes it feel like you’re simply talking to a friend. I hope that my patients leave feeling inspired, hopeful, and at peace with themselves.
