If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, low confidence, or feeling stuck in your own head, I’m here to help. I’m a real, down-to-earth guy and I want sessions with me to feel like you’re hanging out with someone who actually gets you. I work with men and women who deal with self-loathing, overthinking, social anxiety, and the pressure to look like they have it all together. My style is relaxed, nonjudgmental, and honest. I’ll listen closely, empathize fully, and, when it helps you grow, I’ll gently call you out on the patterns that aren’t serving you.
I use a mix of CBT, psychodynamic, psychoanalytic exploration, and strengths-based work. Basically: we’ll talk, figure some things out, and build new ways of thinking and coping that actually make life easier. I have lived through my own struggles with anxiety, depression, and self-worth, and I bring that real-life understanding into the room.
I've struggled with my own sense of self worth and belonging, realizing that there isn't a "one size fits all" approach to therapy; rather individualized treatment plans for you to become your best self. If you’re looking for a therapist who’s warm, genuine, laid-back, and honest—but also committed to helping you grow—I’d be happy to connect.

I often use CBT, DBT, and ERP in my practice. In your first session, we will explore what brought you to therapy and decide what modalities and processes will work best with your personality and goals. With CBT, we will focus on how thoughts can impact emotions and experiences and then tailor our own specific treatment plan to combat the challenges we face together.
