They desire transformative experiences to overcome challenges and distractions, fostering genuine connections and enriched lives.

Let’s face it… IT’S HARD TO BE A MAN. We live in a time when many men are unlikely to ask for help, refusing to acknowledge past wounds that stand in the way of their deepest potential. I have worked extensively with men’s issues and male adolescents suffering the effects of limiting beliefs, life struggles, depression, anxiety, sex addiction and sexual trauma. Helping men of all ages overcome the blocks that keep them disconnected from themselves or their partners; whether it is being stuck in a frustrating cycle of repeating the same mistakes over and over to struggling with infidelity, porn addiction or sexual trauma.

I am an inclusive Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who strives to make each client feel heard within a safe environment. I have experience working with members of various communities including the LGBTQIA population, sex/gender diverse persons, individuals practicing ethical non-monogamy, and are in non-traditional relationships.

It takes great courage to recognize when you need help and even more to ask for it. Even the strongest and most healthy need a trusted mentor, healer, and guide in their life at some point. Do you find yourself asking questions about sex, sexual health, sexual relationships, or intimacy within your relationship? Do you feel you have a place to ask and explore sexual topics and understand your sexual body? Understanding this part of yourself is an important part of your ability to relate and interact with yourself AND to connect, relate, and interact with others throughout your life. Here is a space for you.

​Desperately wrestling the couch cushions into a configuration that won’t kill your back, you finally break down into helpless tears. Your marriage is in tatters and you’re hanging on by a thread. Between your children and your careers, you’ve had nothing left for each other. It feels like you’ve forgotten how to enjoy one another’s company. You feel like a stranger in your own home. It’s either constant bickering or frigid silence. Getting older, you realize you don’t have the energy for either – and this couch brutalizing your spine. You’d do anything to get your best friend back. You need help before this distance grows too great

I help individuals and couples develop a deep understanding of themselves, which can include working through past trauma.

I specialize in teaching tools to help you better communicate, repair relationships, heal attachment wounds, set healthy boundaries, find harmony, build secure attachments, and adjust to life changes, including midlife distress, breakups/divorce, & career changes.

Dark Night of the Soul? Sounds like you're paying attention. If you desire a light on and a human to sit with you, root with you and root for you, I will join you on your journey with your lantern out looking for yourself. If a childlike part of you yearns for nurturing and to be reminded of your beauty, I will support you in embodying as much of your own magic as you are willing to give yourself. I am here to remind you every time you forget that you are precious and irreplaceable in this world.

I was born and raised in Las Vegas but relocated to Utah with my wife in 2014. I have spent most of my career as a business consultant and enjoy helping others simplify complex issues. After my own struggles, I realized that these skills could easily be transferred to individuals who had challenges in their personal lives. I am drawn to working with others who are overwhelmed by all the demands life places on them.

The fact you are looking for a therapist shows you have begun a worth while journey. Every client is unique with his or her own special needs. As a result, therapy is geared to meet the needs of each individual or couple. With my facilitation I will partner with you, which will promote healing and provide a structure to support you as you carry yourself in the world. Dream work is available. For several years I have been working with clients whose ages range from 3-93 because therapy works for people no matter where they are in their lifespan.

My top priority as a therapist is to support people in being who they genuinely are. I am interested in the beauty which exists within the complexities of our most difficult experiences and predicaments. I try to understand these challenges as unique poetries, which can be both brutally painful and exquisitely fascinating, rather than as diagnoses or problems to be fixed. I strive to prioritize the dynamics of the therapeutic relationship as the most essential means in therapy of exploring your inner world. At times this will be challenging, at other times validating, and always coming from a place of respect for you as a person.

Has it been a while since you've felt like yourself? Maybe you've been irritable, overwhelmed, depressed, tired, or anxious. Let's work together to deepen your capacity for true self-compassion, lasting growth, and help you to create meaningful, fulfilling relationships in every phase of life. As Dr. Brené Brown reminds us, we are wired for connection! When we are disconnected from ourselves, it can make connecting with others difficult and unsustainable. I am honored to support my clients as they explore, identify, and courageously express their desires from an increasingly secure place which is grounded in their values.

No matter how capable and resilient we are, at times we are faced with challenges that require professional help. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the most important aspect of therapy. I offer a client-centered, strength based approach to therapy. I help clients identify their thinking errors and behavior patterns that are causing harm and standing in the way of them accomplishing their goals. I have experience working with people who face depression, anxiety, substance abuse, trauma, ADHD and other issues. I currently work with adult clients (18 yrs old and up).

Philosophy of Care: I approach the therapeutic relationship as an essential part of the healing process. Life can present us with many challenges. Many of us pass through experiences that can impact our emotional stability and create struggles to connect with ourselves and with others. I work within the context of the therapeutic setting with a comprehensive approach. I utilize many of the theoretical orientations that I have learned through my years of being a healing practitioner. As a therapist, I strive to assist my clients in increasing their overall quality of life.
