My therapy journey began with a passion to serve underserved people, particularly those struggling with mental illness and lacking resources. This grew into a passion to impact systems serving individuals with mental health issues, trauma, and substance use. I am now refocusing my time on individuals rather than systems. I take a client-centered and collaborative approach to therapy. It can be scary to allow someone into your struggle, and many of us have good reason not to trust others.

My practice is focused on working with Christians who struggle in their closest relationships and feel overwhelmed by their emotions. Applying biblical wisdom to our everyday lives can be truly transformative, but we often need more focused attention to bridge the gap between our faith and how we think, feel, and act day to day. I work with people who know something is wrong with their marriage or in how they feel throughout the day, but can't seem to pinpoint what it is and what they need to do about it. This is when therapy becomes so instrumental to the believer.

Life can feel overwhelming when you’re constantly battling anxiety, depression, or the lasting effects of trauma. The weight of expectations—at work, at home, or in relationships—can leave you feeling stuck, frustrated, or disconnected. If you’re navigating recovery from addiction or struggling with issues unique to men’s mental health, it’s easy to feel like no one understands what you’re going through. You don’t have to face these challenges alone, and it’s okay to seek support.

Hello and Welcome! It takes incredible courage to seek out help and I honor your decision to explore a new path of growth and healing. Growing up in a small rural town, I learned the power of community and belonging, but also the struggle of finding my own way within it. When I finally met with a therapist who truly saw me, I began to understand myself for the first time. That experience showed me the healing power of connection and acceptance, which I now bring to my work. I believe that healing happens in healthy relationships—with ourselves, with others, and within our communities. You deserve to be seen, valued, and connected.

Welcome to my page! I'm so glad you're here. My desire is to help folks reclaim their true authentic self. It is easy to become disconnected from ourselves and weighed down by life. Often times pain, fear, anxiety, or shame can cause us to reject parts of ourselves. It can often feel like we are on "auto-pilot" moving through life with no real purpose or connection. However, I believe that growth can take place by re-discovering our true self. When we learn to give space those parts that we have rejected, we start to connect with ourselves again and come in alignment. When we are aligned, we begin to live life more freely and fully.

As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with therapists of a specific gender. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
