Many of my clients arrive carrying something heavy: relentless anxiety, a marriage that has lost its rhythm, grief that won't loosen its grip, or a family pattern they can't seem to break. I'm a licensed therapist with years of experience helping people through anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, relationship difficulties, and family conflict. I'm empathic, patient, and never judgmental. As a husband and father myself, I understand what it means to love people deeply while also struggling, and I bring that to every session.
My work is rooted in family systems therapy: the idea that the families we grew up in shape the roles, beliefs, and patterns we carry into adulthood. Whatever you're navigating now, anxiety at work, conflict in your marriage, or trouble setting limits with a parent, we look at it in that broader context.
Your first session is yours. We won't spend it buried in forms or running through a checklist. I want to hear what brought you in, what you're hoping for, and what feels most pressing right now. I'll have questions, and you should too.
