I have had the privilege to work with a diverse patient population over my decade of practice. My favorite thing to see in a patient is a desire to get well and have a fulfilling life. If that inner drive is there, we can help you at Journey. It is such a joy to see people come from difficult situations, a slew of other providers with a medicine list a mile long, and learn how to become empowered over their life again. I believe all perceived mistakes are attempted solutions that need more education. I teach people to go from a space of helplessness and shame to pride and awareness.

Compulsive behaviors impact all aspects of one’s life, including thoughts, feelings, and actions. They can lead to various addictions that include substance use, sex, social media, relationships, gambling, and more. People with compulsive behaviors often struggle to align their actions with personal goals and what is important to them. But I built my practice upon the idea that anyone can recover if given the right environment, and I aim to provide a safe space where clients gain insight and tools for their emotions, experiences, and behaviors.

Thanks for visiting my profile! As someone who has gone through the therapeutic journey himself, I know it can be very intimidating to make the decision to start the counseling journey. My primary focus is to take a relational approach to therapy, learning the story and life experiences that have impacted each client. I believe that change happens when people feel safe, seen and heard, and I strive to create that environment while inviting people into the process of healing. My approach is to address problems with a systemic lens, assessing all factors of that person’s life and the impact they have on wellbeing and functioning.

Nobody gets through life without difficult experiences. Some experiences, like living through childhood neglect, abuse, or family dysfunction, make everyday stressors even more difficult. Difficult childhood experiences don’t just “go away” once we become adults. They can impact every aspect of adult life.

You're navigating one of life's most difficult relationship challenges. Whether the discovery was recent or ongoing, you're experiencing intense emotional pain, intrusive thoughts, difficulty sleeping, and uncertainty about your relationship's future. You may feel overwhelmed by competing emotions—anger, grief, confusion, fear. You're wondering if healing is possible, whether individually or as a couple. You need more than general relationship counseling; you're seeking specialized support that acknowledges the complexity of betrayal trauma and offers evidence-based pathways forward.

For Gay, Bi, and Queer Men, unresolved pain and unspoken hunger can create deep ruptures in our present lives. When emotions have no language, they manifest in our bodies, relationships, and patterns—sometimes in ways that feel disruptive, compulsive, or out of our control. These are signs of emotional injury that deserve space to be acknowledged and healed.
Therapy offers that space. It is a place where mind, body, and spirit can reconnect—where fragmentation can turn into integration. Through a healing and relational approach, I help folx reconnect with their values and take meaningful, committed action toward their goals and des

I am a Christian counselor/coach and I am passionate about helping men experience freedom from compulsive behaviors and, as a result, a deeper connection with God, themselves, and others.

Being in therapy with me is like being in a book club. That's a little exaggerated, but I do like to recommend reading material and other media sources to supplement the work we do in session. As a therapist, I'm curious and analytical. I like to think of treatment as a puzzle we're solving together.
Choosing the right therapist for you, someone who fits with your personality and understands where you're coming from, will support a positive therapy experience. I am someone who likes to employ whimsy and humor, when appropriate, to help clients feel at ease.

Should I stay or should I go? It’s the heavy question keeping you awake and straining your spirit. You’re exhausted by the status quo and a relationship that feels like more work than reward. Whether it’s communication breakdowns, career stress, or the collision of your "stuff" and their "stuff," you feel stuck. You want real change—better sex, deeper intimacy, and a genuine connection—but the old patterns won't budge. I work with high-achieving individuals and couples who are finally ready to stop drifting and start taking charge of their lives. If you are ready to trade "fine" for "flourishing," we should talk.

Sexual Addiction Therapists
When should someone seek treatment for sex addiction?
People should seek treatment for sex addiction if they cannot control their sexual thoughts or behaviours to the point that it disrupts their ability to function in daily life, for example by threatening their finances, career, or relationships. This may include spending an excessive amount of time obsessing over sex, planning sex, watching pornography, or masturbating, as well as consistently engaging in risky sexual activities, using sex to escape distressing feelings, or attempting yet failing to control sexual behavior.
What are the most common treatment options for sex addiction?
Psychotherapy is the most common treatment for sex addiction; therapy helps patients better understand their compulsive thoughts and behaviors and develop strategies to manage their desires. Therapy may be supplemented by medications, such as antidepressants, mood stabilizers, anti-androgens, and the alcohol and substance use medication Naltrexone, as well as support groups, such as 12-step programs.
How long does therapy take for sex addiction?
Recovering from compulsive behavior takes time and effort. There’s no precise timeline for treatment, but research suggests 12 therapy sessions may be enough to see change. Treatment for sexual compulsions requires honesty in therapy, a commitment to understanding triggers and developing coping skills, and potential lifestyle changes such as cutting out alcohol or drugs.
What if sex addiction is left untreated?
Compulsive sexual behavior can have serious repercussions if left unaddressed. For example, if sexual obsessions consume the vast majority of a person’s time, they may lose their job. If they can’t stop paying for sex, their finances may suffer. If they’re dishonest in their relationships, their partner may leave them. If they consistently feel shame, they may struggle with anxiety, depression, or loneliness. Therapy can help people develop the tools to manage sexual thoughts and behaviors that feel uncontrollable.
