For the past 13 years I have worked with men and women experiencing sexual addiction (my specialty area), broken and traumatic relationships and feelings of despair.
Connection is key! I seek to provide the space for clients to allow themselves to be open, explore and accept aspects about themselves where shame and fear may have been the barrier. Past trauma, damaging relationships, anxiety, depression, and spiritual abuse are just a few areas where shame and fear are created. These lead us to isolate, mask, and seek unhealthy coping skills in order to face the day. If you find yourself not enjoying relationships, not able to fulfill or even understand your passion/purpose, or stuck in anxiety, depression or addiction I would be honored to walk through these things with you.

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. I specialize in helping men struggling with addictive and compulsive behaviors like pornography, sex, drugs, alcohol, food, work, video games, relationships, etc.
After more than 20 years of experience, I have found that true lasting healing does not happen in isolation. Weekly recovery groups provide the accountability, honesty, and brotherhood required for lasting transformation. That is why I now fully focus on the power of group work.

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.

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.

I specialize in working with trauma and PTSD, sexual addiction, and sexual abuse, and remain present with clients in the midst of these struggles rather than rushing symptom relief.
Many of the men I work with are successful on the outside but privately overwhelmed. They’re disciplined, intelligent, and used to pushing through—yet something in their system isn’t resetting the way it used to. They feel stuck, disconnected, or caught in patterns that no longer match the life they’re trying to build. They want more than symptom relief; they want meaningful, lasting change that helps them feel steady, present, and in control again.

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

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.

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.
