My ideal client is someone who is self-motivated and ready to "work" in therapy. I work with men, women and older adolescents.

I meet with individuals using a variety of approaches. Work with clients is determined by the problem brought to the session, beginning where you find yourself-cognitively, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I generally work with a client's life story, to look for origins of beliefs and problems, and to find ways to reframe the story so that it is not so limiting. I am experienced in the areas of trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, stress, anger management, conflict resolution, addiction, career counseling and various other issues.

Men and women are different, and guys have very specific counseling needs. A lot of men cringe at the thought of counseling, and understandably so. My goal is to show the guy who hates the idea of counseling how helpful it can be and that masculinity isn't inherently negative. Being a man is a good thing and being a good man is even better. My PhD research was on help-seeking behavior in men. I know that making that first phone call seems terrifying, but you owe it to yourself to give this a shot. You owe it to yourself to be well.

If life has gotten tough enough that you are having to read through therapist's bios, I get it! Sometimes, you just need someone to help you get past what is holding you back.

Searching for hope and healing from experiencing the trauma of betrayal, infidelity, compulsive sexual behavior, or relationship distress? Lasting, long-term recovery requires expert guidance.

We all have what we need already inside ourselves, but sometimes we struggle to know and utilize those strengths in difficult situations. Ego state therapy and “parts work” can help you tap into a set of tools many of us don’t even know we have. As we work together, I will help you get to know yourself in a more meaningful way, understand and heal your traumas, break out of dysfunctional patterns, and strengthen your connection to the powerful helpers and skills you have within your own brain. My life has been changed by this creative and empowering therapy and I hope to do the same with the clients and couples in my care.

Every new day is a new chance to change. Life comes with many stages and changes like getting married or divorced, having children, going to college, starting a new job or losing someone close. Whether you are prepared or not these things often create so many emotions, thoughts, and decisions it gets overwhelming. Sometimes you just need someone to listen and help guide you through it. As a systemically trained therapist, I believe it’s the experiences we have had throughout our life with family, friends, partners, colleagues, etc. that shape who we are and influence how we handle what’s going on in our world.

As humans, we see the world based on our experiences and social construct; however, I want to help clients see a new perspective, create a new narrative, and even be experts in their lives.
