You look like you have it together, but inside you’re overwhelmed, frustrated, or running on fumes. You may be driven and successful, yet feel something is missing. You’re tired of repeating the same relationship patterns and living with self-doubt. You want real change, not surface-level fixes. You’re looking for insight, clarity, and the freedom to be yourself, and for someone grounded who will challenge you. If that’s you, you’re in the right place.
Riley offers relational, process-based therapy for high-functioning individuals and couples who feel internally stuck or disconnected. Rather than focusing on labels, he works directly with the patterns driving distress, helping clients understand how those patterns formed and how they continue to shape daily life.
Therapy works best when it feels active and alive. Riley creates a space where you can slow down, feel understood, and engage honestly with what’s keeping you stuck. If you’re ready for something deeper than symptom management or supportive talk, reach out.

These are the main issues I help with: relationship struggles, unresolved trauma, and a deep sense of not feeling good enough despite success. Therapy with me often includes identifying core patterns, processing root pain, and rebuilding your connection to self and others. Clients often feel more clarity, emotional strength, and a renewed sense of direction.

I integrate EMDR, Adlerian theory, Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy, and attachment-focused approaches to help you get beneath patterns, not just cope with them. Sessions are active and collaborative. We'll process what's stuck, explore where it began, and work toward change that actually feels like relief.
