Immediate openings as of 8/6. Let’s be honest—taking the first step into therapy can feel incredibly uncomfortable. If you are a man struggling with irritability/anger or need to work on yourself for the sake of your marriage, a teen feeling crushed by the pressure to have it all together, or a veteran carrying a heavy weight that civilian life doesn't seem to understand—you don’t have to figure it out alone. I specialize in working with young men, men, & military veterans navigating the realities of anxiety, depression/anger, bipolar, shame, or trauma. I also have experience working with challenges related to substance use.
If you're feeling stuck, angry, or completely checked out, I can help you look at negative thinking patterns holding you back, evidenced-based techniques to process the pain and help you reconnect with things you care about.
Therapy with me is conversational & focused on your strengths. I believe that vulnerability isn't a weakness—it takes a specific kind of grit to look at your life & decide you want something better. Whether you're looking to process trauma or just need a solid sounding board for life's transitions, I'm here to match your efforts! Faith-based upon request.
