I also specialize in therapy that focuses on the relationship between the child and parents.
My therapeutic approach mainly focuses on helping my clients identify their strengths to help alleviate anxiety, depression, and trauma. I am a firm believer that our childhood experiences contribute to our beliefs, behavioral patterns, and selecting a romantic partner. Therapy is a process! To allow ourselves to be intimate and vulnerable with someone about our experiences and trauma can be daunting. As a therapist, it is my goal to help validate, create a safe environment and help understand aspects of lived experiences.

This might look like anxiety, depression, PTSD, addiction, and relationship/family issues. I aim to help you process unresolved issues and feelings and find solutions.

I have over 10 years of experience working with adults, couples, and families in various capacities.
Our life experiences can lead us to question our identity and purpose in the world we live in. This can lead us to anxiety, depression, and trauma. Do you want to improve how you face challenges, function in your relationships, and face overwhelming feelings? I place heavy importance on addressing trauma. Trauma disintegrates the parts that make up your whole self, which can leave aspects of who you are hidden from your awareness. Left unaddressed, anxiety and depression can worsen, which can rob you of the necessary connection that all human beings need to thrive. I aim to help you process unresolved trauma.

The transitions and stressors of life can be overwhelming, often leading to disconnection and isolation. I offer a space of compassion and empathy for those who find themselves in such pain. I understand it is a tremendous privilege to be brought into someone else's story, so I take great care to listen with tenderness and warmth. Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all journey; that's why my heart for therapy is to come alongside each of my clients to collaborate with them on their path to healing.

Most clients begin therapy with me when they encounter relational and emotional challenges that do not appear to resolve and continue to create distress. This could entail a conflictual marriage, grief of a loved one, or lack of self-confidence. By processing their experiences, however traumatic, confusing, or frustrating they can be, I hope to start the healing process that will address the anxiety, depression, or broken relationships. On this new road of recovery, clients can identify what they need and want to have more satisfaction and meaning in life.

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.
