I started my career as an electrical engineer in the aerospace industry, working and leading teams for the International Space Station and a satellite mission. Wanting to work more closely with people, I switched to business strategy consulting, traveling to Fortune 100 companies on a weekly basis for two years. While I got the chance to solve complex problems, I realized I wanted to help people solve the problems that mattered to them at a deeper level. This, coupled with my own recovery journey, is what drives me to do exceptional therapy work today.
I am a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) and have experience helping clients find long-term sobriety from sexual acting out. I offer a person-centered and narrative approach to therapy to help clients learn to relate better while applying tactical skills based on CSAT tasks and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) skills.
I'm passionate about these issues and have a story that helps me to relate. This may be the greatest challenge of your life, but it will also be the most rewarding to overcome. It would be an honor to be a part of your journey as you find healing and growth.
