Finding ways to navigate the psychological, and existential corridors of our lives is at the core of mental health. If painful, repeating patterns are pervading your life, therapy (with the right therapist) can help break these patterns. Through a process of constructing a therapeutic relationship tailored to your unique needs, we can gain autonomy and freedom in the face of overwhelming life experiences.

Welcome to my practice. I have been in practice since 2007 and have been featured on ABC, NBC, and KCAL as an expert psychologist. I work primarily with men who have hit “rock bottom” and would like help getting up. These men are often in crisis when we first meet. The issues I address are typically related to unhealthy sexual behaviors, infidelity, financial recklessness, gambling, drugs/alcohol, dishonesty/lying, and relational conflicts. My therapy approach is a combination of psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral, and the 12-Step recovery model. I also share insight from my own painful but redemptive recovery journey.

Do you see your own issues, but can't seem to think or "will" yourself into more productive behavior? Perhaps you have a wonderful mate and family, but you are stuck in the same old arguments and frustrations, and you know your family's communication could be better. Maybe you feel angry, or sad, and you just don't know why. Perhaps you are hoping to come to terms with something very unfortunate that has happened to you, either recently or long ago. If you want to feel better about yourself and others, you have come to the right place.

You might be here because life feels unfulfilling and overwhelming - there’s a sense of staleness and repetition about your life that resembles groundhog day. Or maybe you just went through a big life event and don't recognize who you are or who you're supposed to be. Relentless negative self-talk tells you you’re failing at life but where the hell are you supposed to start? Small decisions about everyday life leave you overwhelmed, frozen – everything feels like a high-stakes decision and you struggle to find a sense of contentment in your day-to-day life. You feel perpetually overwhelmed and exhausted and constantly crave sleep.

I focus on three dimensions in my psychotherapeutic work. The first is awareness and insight into our development as individuals and how this development has shaped our current functioning. There are no perfect parents nor perfect family experience without unmet needs and injuries (purposeful or unintentional). In understanding what we had to do to maintain critical attachments and equally critical separation and autonomy growing up, we discover that who we are is not fixed and irrevocable. We begin to see that we now have a choice to see ourselves and the world in new healthier ways and function differently in our current life.
