You might be asking yourself “Why do I keep repeating the same patterns in my relationships, my career, and my life?” In my 17 years of practice, I have helped hundreds of people clear the roadblocks to living more authentic, healthy lives. My ability to guide people on this path comes from two decades of deep self-work because I can only take someone to places I’ve gone myself. If you feel ready to take a closer look at the parts of you that have been silently running your life from the backseat, I'll meet you there to help you take the first step toward the life you've always imagined.
While I see clients from various age groups and backgrounds, I primarily work with men ages 30-50 who have been in therapy before and are looking to go deeper. I see many of my clients in both individual and group therapy, a combination that helps people thoroughly address relationship concerns such as social anxiety, intimacy, and interpersonal conflict.
I've been in practice since 2007. I've got a lot of tools available to me, depending on what you need, including EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems, and Sand Tray Therapy. I currently have openings for individual and group therapy. If you're ready to take the next step, I'd love to talk with you!

During our initial session, you'll have a chance to share in depth what you're going through and what you're hoping to get from our work together. I usually meet with people anywhere from 1-4 sessions to collaboratively determine if we'll be a good fit for longer-term work. In the case that we determine we're not the best fit, I have an extensive network of colleagues to make personal referrals.

I use a combination of depth therapeutic approaches in my work. I draw from existential-humanistic, psychodynamic, relational, and trauma-informed frameworks including EMDR. I am also trained in Internal Family Systems therapy. While this may sound like a lot of different perspectives, I am experienced in integrating them and finding what's most needed to address your specific concerns.
