Men & couples who feel disconnected, let me help you reconnect! I bear witness to your struggles, & while this may seem unconventional in the healing field, it is the sacred essence of what I do. To the man navigating emotional isolation & feeling the pressure to fit into society's mold—which wears you down & pulls you away from your true self—I am here for you. To the couple feeling the weight of life's trials on your relationship, where warmth & closeness have faded into a cold distance—I see you. Within your struggles, something greater seeks to emerge. I am here to create a space where that deeper wisdom can rise!

The only thing constant is change – Heraclitus of Ephesos (c.500 BCE) Change can be hard. It can also be a period of excitement and rebirth. I am a licensed clinical psychologist who has dedicated my professional career to help individuals of all ages, to improve their lives in the face of challenges. Challenges, adverse live events, can be the result of stress and emotional problems due to mental health issues, physical illness, trauma, family circumstances, transitions in employment, and education and social stressors.

I am passionate about working with individuals and couples toward the goal of discovering how to access and express our deepest selves and form meaningful connections. I specialize in relationships, addiction and recovery, trauma, body image issues, and transitioning from adolescence into adulthood. I am committed to celebrating LGBTQ and gender variant people and communities and have a particular interest in working with gender variant individuals and their loved ones. I use psychoanalytic and postmodern theories in making links between subject and culture/subculture, always challenging gender stereotypes that keep us limited.

I specialize in relationship issues pertaining to Infidelity; Youth (most often impacted by familial stressors) and Communication, which correlates and can manifest as obsessive thoughts, anxiety, depression and related addictions. Infidelity is a symptom of underlying issues. Trained in EMDR to identify and manage trauma, I became a therapist due to personal experience in dealing with affairs. I understand the emotional roller coaster infidelity creates. Emotional education and processing is important to understanding why you are experiencing the emotions you are dealing with.

I applaud you for considering therapy at this time! One of the most powerful gifts we can offer ourselves is movement: towards wholeness, balance, and equanimity. This looks different for everyone, whether it is attending therapy for the first time, deepening our self-exploration, or engaging effectively with loved ones. In session, I strive to blend the principles of evidence-based treatments with an approach rooted in equity, compassion, and respect for each individual’s unique life experience. I am grateful to join clients as a co-navigator and co-learner on their path towards improved mindset, relationships, and well-being.

Does this describe you: "I'm running on empty and living a frazzled life. I feel like I'm in survival mode." The process of exploring your inner life (the unresolved traumas, as well as the resiliency that has helped you survive) creates opportunities for you to heal. I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). As Viktor Frankl wrote, "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." We can rewire our brains and reprocess our past traumas using EMDR. I am currently providing EMDR via Zoom. Yes, this is possible, and it works.

You are reaching out because things don't feel right and you don't feel good. Do you struggle with irritability or sadness? Maybe you have a trauma history that could be impacting your relationships, health or parenting? I can assist you in making connections between past experiences and current behaviors. I believe in the healing power of relationship and connection. So often we struggle because of barriers that inhibit successful relationships with our children, parents, partner or peers. I can help you to see where the barriers and unsuccessful behaviors come from to be able to make lasting and positive change.

I enjoy working with people of all ages facing various kinds of transition. Each new phase of life brings somewhat predictable changes, and then there are other changes that cause us to adapt and grow in somewhat unpredictable ways. Whatever you're facing, my goal is to work with you to find unique strengths and creative solutions that allow you to thrive in the midst of change.

I believe the relationship between therapist and client is essential in understanding the underlying issues affecting one's obstacles to personal growth and happiness. It is my goal to provide a calm space and safe relationship towards that end. Working with adults, young adults and families for more than 20 years has given me a breadth of experience that I bring to the therapeutic relationship. I have particular experience with early trauma and PTSD; depression/anxiety; life transitions; addiction related symptoms; and, relationship issues.

Whether it is time for you to mend an emotional wound, get relief from anxiety and depression, seek the right relationship, repair the current one, or to create a larger purpose for your life, including a therapist during your journey can help you discover what is possible for you. In addition to his main therapy approaches, Rudy believes that psychotherapy can be vastly improved by integrating deeper exploration into your EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE (EQ): Self-awareness, Self-regulation, Motivation, Empathy, and Social skills. Optimizing these primary components of EQ with your therapist can be a game-changer during your work together.

I believe that all people have the ability to heal themselves and yet sometimes a little extra support is needed to get there. Are you driven, passionate and capable but struggling to maintain right now? I offer a safe, non-judgmental and compassionate space so you can explore whatever is currently holding you back. As someone who worked as a night attendant on the FDA-approved MDMA/PTSD study and having provided over 10 years of harm reduction services at music events, I find that my open-mindedness has been an essential component of my professional development.

I help individuals reconnect to themselves, their intuition, and deepen relationship with others. Through trauma-informed and compassionate care, let's work together to help you shed symptoms of shame, rediscover authenticity, and come home to yourself. Individuals who have experienced religious harm, disappointment in faith communities, or are leaving high control groups are particularly drawn to my work. It's important to honor the grief and feelings of isolation that can come with reconsidering beliefs that were once so important to you.

Humorist, Mark Twain once wrote, "I've had a lot of worries in my life, most of which never happened." Left unchecked, fear-based thinking shapes reality and impedes potential and growth. The unknown and mixed messages surrounding the pandemic has reinforced this mindset and may have left you with perpetual feelings of sadness, uncertainty and doubt. The first step of our journey together is establishing a relationship built upon trust, respect, and safety. Through shared conversation, mindfulness, and self-regulating techniques, we create a bond that honors your unique story and circumstance.

My clients are sophisticated, insightful, and curious about themselves and others. Yet they may have found themselves feeling chronically depressed, anxious, or lost in life, and they might struggle with long-term patterns in their lives and relationships that they just can’t seem to change. Perhaps they have struggled with trauma or other experiences, thoughts, and feelings they fear nobody would understand. I enjoy working with people who desire not just new insights into their mind, but also a new way of experiencing themselves and others.

Are you facing life's complexities and challenges? I'm here to help. As a therapist, I support clients in addressing a range of issues—whether they are current or rooted in the past. I firmly believe that the relationship we have with ourselves is foundational to improving the quality of our lives. That is why I work with clients in helping them explore aspects of themselves that may be interfering with their growth and development. Oftentimes this can manifest in the form of unhelpful behaviors, unhealthy ways of coping, or clinical disorders. Whatever it may look like, we can work through it together.
