I believe that humans are basically good, and that we all act out because we are in pain. You are not broken – you are hurting. While I have lots of experience helping adolescent males navigate the transition to adulthood, I am open to working with any client if the relationship feels right. Family therapy is an essential part of my background, and I incorporate systems work into everything I do. I laugh and cry often with my clients. I utilize holistic healing methods, with the understanding that the most effective way to heal trauma is through the body - ideally in conjunction with the natural world.

You made it. You've come a long way, achieved success and stability, but you feel empty, dissatisfied, or out of control. You're let down by systems and relationships that were supposed to care for you, suffocated by a society that bases your worth on external factors. You know something is wrong, and are searching for a therapist who sees your dignity and lovability. You want to overcome your past, find the bravery to take risks, and heal the deepest roots of your distress. You seek counseling that centers collaboration, consent, compassion, presence, and authenticity to live a meaningful life based on self-love and inner peace.

Life is complex. It can be difficult to gain clarity as to what we want... what we need... where we want to go. The human experience is unique, which is why I approach counseling with openness, authenticity, acceptance, and radical presence to join those seeking to expand awareness and make meaningful change in a supportive, non-judgmental space.

I use an existential approach to work with anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, chronic stress and burnout, spirituality, grief and loss, and relationship challenges. My clients are typically struggling with change, relationships, making difficult choices, and finding meaning or purpose. Themes often involve freedom/constraint, responsibility, boundary, authenticity, meaning/meaninglessness, safety/risk, belonging/isolation, identity, power/powerlessness, and mortality.

Many of my clients seek a non-judgmental and knowledgeable space to support their experiences of sexuality, gender, and relationships. Many arrive into therapy experiencing barriers in their sexual and relational health: they feel out of control, disconnected, or stuck in painful patterns. Some of my clients seek a space that affirms gender and sexuality, non-traditional relationships, and the whole of their identities to discuss broader struggles or integrate life transitions. No matter where we begin together, I am always whole-person oriented, collaborative, and client-led.

It didn’t come as a shock. Your grandmother was elderly and had been sick for some time. But the news of her death hit you like a ton of bricks. You’re not sure why it’s affecting you so much. You can’t stop crying, and it’s hard to concentrate. You’re falling behind at work, and you worry that your partner will get sick of your dark mood. You thought you'd done a lot of work on becoming more resilient and learning how to cope, but now it feels like you've lost those gains somehow. Nothing you try makes a difference, and you’re embarrassed to be struggling so much. It feels overwhelming, frustrating, and isolating.

The weight of your grief feels overwhelming, and it seems like the lightness you once knew is out of reach. Whether you're facing the loss of a loved one, navigating a major life change, or questioning who you thought you were, everything feels uncertain. There’s a heaviness in your heart, and the feeling of shame makes you retreat from those who care about you most and lash out at them. The isolation can feel suffocating, and the loneliness only deepens during such a difficult time. You once had a path forward, but now every day feels like an uphill climb, leaving you wondering how you’ll ever make it through.

We all strive to be better versions of ourselves. We all need connection, purpose, and meaning to facilitate growth and inspire the change we long for in our lives. I enjoy working with people who are motivated, open, and genuinely curious to learn more about themselves. By allowing the unconscious to become conscious, it can help you experience greater freedom and agency in your life. What obstacles are currently preventing you from having happier, healthier relationships and becoming the best version of yourself? Together we will work to understand your individual needs and learn how to help you attain your therapeutic goals.

I view psychotherapy as a process of exploration and affirmation of one's life path, including the experiences and wisdom gained along this journey. This is just the beginning point for the psychotherapeutic process of healing and identifying one's pathway to continue the journey of personal growth, transformation and achieving balance (mind, body & Spirit).
I see my role as a therapist as that of a witness and source of support and knowledge, joining with you to help facilitate the individual process of developing a deeper sense of self-awareness, achieving personal growth and transformation: to create the life you want.

Navigating the world can be filled with complexity. There are internal and external struggles that we all deal with on the daily. Sometimes we don’t have access to all our available resources in body, mind, and spirit for one reason or another. Despite our best efforts to tackle these challenges on our own, we can get cut off from ourselves, our partners, our family, and/or our communities. Do you want to feel connected, heard and supported? Do you need a place that you can feel safe and just be yourself? Sometimes it’s hard to be honest with ourselves and confront the things that scare us. Sometimes we need someone to help.
