"Often men find it difficult to identify their emotions or are unable to translate their emotional experiences into words. I can teach you to learn behaviors and skills to allow you to better express emotions such as vulnerability, intimacy struggles, and perceived weakness.

I help people sort out these feelings, find their proper place, let go of old wounds and find the feelings that lead to postive connections."
