I love working with youth who have been diagnosed with Oppositional Defiant Disorder, or significant behavioral difficulties. I enjoy angry kids, or kids that feel misunderstood. My approach is non-traditional, and it works well with kids who have had bad experiences in therapy, or hate the concept of therapy in general. I also tend to have good success with folks who struggle with anxiety, depression, autism, and low self-esteem.

My focus is guiding clients to a fulfilling life. At A Better Future, we improve mental well-being.

I aim to provide insight into masculine perspectives, sparking positive transformation.
