Do you often face challenges with emotion regulation, feelings of isolation, struggle with self-acceptance, family or relationship problems, and trauma? Overcoming the challenges of struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, family systems, or borderline personality disorder can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship, deconstructing the POC narrative surrounding therapy, authenticity, compassion, and the use of gentle challenges to help you work towards overcoming life's challenges through individualized and creative approaches.

Therapy sucks for men. Why? Well, its not really made for them. As men we face specific issues and challenges and deserve therapy tailored directly to us to experience real change. If you're finding yourself anxious, empty, and unsure of where to turn for help, you've come to the right place.

Struggling with addiction and feel rehab isn’t an option? Leaving your family, job, school and responsibilities for an extended period of time is not always needed to get yourself healthy and on track. If you or a loved one are struggling with addiction, I know the challenges of this lifestyle. Being caught in the cycle of addiction is hard-feelings of fear, failure, guilt, and shame. You may have tried stopping on your own, only to find yourself engaging in the same unhelpful behavior. Breaking this cycle alone is tough! Counseling may be more effective for you than rehab. I specialize in moderation & abstinence based approaches.

Our goals in therapy are always to reduce suffering and increase happiness. Achieving this requires two essential components. First, we need awareness of how our minds work and how to help them heal. I bring that. And second, we need a willingness to look clearly at oneself and to allow new ways of thinking and acting to develop. That is the client's responsibility. Together, our job is to create a space that is open, trusting and full of genuine acceptance of whatever arises. From there it is almost certain that your life will change in welcome ways.
