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 want to dig deeper? Are you repeating behaviors or situations and wishing you could break the cycle? Are you or your partner struggling with mismatched communication, attachment, intimacy, reactions, vulnerability, desire, culture, or conflict resolution styles? Sometimes, we're not sure what causes our distress, but we can sense we're not reaching our potential for health, happiness, or success. Even when we know the cause, change can still feel impossible. That's where I come in. Without judgment, my job is to listen, help you understand root causes of your difficulties, & teach you practical tools to help change your life.

Do you feel stuck or overwhelmed? Uncertain how to move forward? Coping with a chronic illness? Struggling with a loss in your life? Do you feel disconnected from your partner? Humaning is hard, therapy should not be. When we begin to understand ourselves better, life becomes much easier to journey through. We start to choose how we want to live instead of reacting to what life brings us. I am passionate about helping my clients find a solid sense of self, while staying emotionally connected with others. I strive to create a safe, genuine, supportive, and compassionate environment in which a lasting positive change can be made.
