When you look in the mirror, do you not like who you see? Have you betrayed your partner? Yourself? Maybe you're carrying shame, guilt, and a fear that you're beyond repair. You're not. But staying stuck in that shame — without understanding what drove you there — keeps you trapped in those patterns. I work with men and couples navigating infidelity and betrayal. I don't believe this is something to just diagnose. It came from somewhere, and mapping where is what makes real change possible. Through a humanist approach, I help you make honest sense of what happened. I also work with men and non-binary folx on anxiety and identity.
Here's how we work: first, we stabilize — getting you through the crisis and the day-to-day emotional fallout. Then we go deeper — using IFS to understand the parts of you that drove your choices and continue to sabotage. From there, we focus on repair — with your partner or within yourself. I bring equal parts warmth and directness.
You can keep carrying this alone — replaying it, managing it, hoping it fades. But it won't, not without honest understanding. Or you can reach out and start making sense of what happened in a space where you won't be judged or diagnosed. That's what I offer. One conversation is all it takes to know if this is the right fit.

I work with infidelity and partner betrayal. I also treat anxiety, overthinking, compulsive social media use, and digital overwhelm. Together we'll slow things down, build emotional tools, and untangle what keeps you stuck. You can expect more calm, confidence, and the freedom to actually enjoy your own life again.
