My ideal client is someone struggling with addiction, trauma, or unhealthy relationship patterns—men who feel stuck in cycles of shame, isolation, and self-sabotage. They need a space free of judgment where they can rebuild self-worth, develop emotional resilience, and break destructive patterns. Their goal is to live authentically, develop meaningful connections, and take actionable steps toward healing. They want freedom from the past and the ability to move forward with clarity, purpose, and self-compassion.
I specialize in addiction, trauma, and men’s mental health, providing a direct yet compassionate approach. I offer individual therapy and a men’s sex addiction process group, creating a safe space to break destructive cycles, build self-worth, and develop healthy relationships. Together, we take action toward healing, growth, and lasting change.
You don’t have to keep living in shame, isolation, or self-doubt. Change is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone. Whether you’re struggling with addiction, trauma, or relationship challenges, I’m here to help you break free and reclaim your life. If you’re ready to take the next step, let’s start the journey together. I’d love to hear your story.
