I approach life as a student with a deep interest in the mind—its hidden drivers, patterns, and motivations. My work is grounded in understanding why we do what we do, drawing heavily from eastern philosophy/mysticism (particularly concepts of ego and self realization) alongside evolutionary psychology. I am a nerd for both! I have a long history of working with men struggling with substance use disorders and men’s issues, while also working with people across a wide range of backgrounds and life experiences. No two paths are the same. Being human is complicated, and meaningful change rarely follows a straight line.
Therapy with me is collaborative and practical. We focus on honest self-understanding by examining thoughts, feelings, and behaviors from different perspectives. The work builds awareness, opens the mind, identifies what works and what doesn’t, normalizes human experience without over-pathologizing it, and moves toward more effective ways of being.
With nearly twenty years of experience in this field, I bring both clinical expertise and a genuine curiosity about each person’s story. I won’t position myself as the authority on your life. My role is to offer insight, ask meaningful questions, and partner with you as we work toward clarity and growth.

I believe the best defense is a good offense.... that change happens by taking a very proactive approach to recovery.

I help people step back from the stories their minds automatically generate, and the distress that comes from ancient survival based genetic wiring. Together, we examine self focused patterns, normalize our humanity, and take a proactive approach to operating from a higher level of consciousness, transcending into effective behavior.
