Have you ever felt misunderstood or alone? Do you notice that your anxiety, depression, and emotions are getting the best of you? Perhaps stress and emotions get so overwhelming that you are unable to control them or know how to get help. Maybe you want to work on improving your interpersonal relationships, or figuring out where you want to go with your life.

As a therapist with a Master's degree in Social Work from the University of Michigan, I am deeply passionate about creating meaningful change in the lives of my clients. With over a decade of experience in various roles within the human services and mental health field, I have had the privilege of working with diverse populations facing homelessness, survivors of intimate partner abuse, older adults, individuals with disabilities, and those living below the poverty line. My commitment to social justice drives me to continually explore the impact of systemic structures on individual mental health.

Are you tired of feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or trapped in a cycle of self-doubt and negative patterns? You may find yourself constantly replaying past events, struggling to let go of old wounds or feeling a lingering sense of resentment that you just can’t shake. These feelings might manifest as anxiety, difficulty trusting others, or a fear of vulnerability that keeps you from forming deep connections. Perhaps you feel overwhelmed by emotions or notice physical symptoms like stress that prevent you from moving forward in life. I understand how emotional challenges can quietly sabotage your happiness and success.

My ideal client are young males ages 6-18, and married men who want to be better husbands and fathers. Growing up in households without male role models often has boys/men needing guidance. Without guidance can lead to current and future family dysfunction leading to divorce, duplicating fatherless homes, and making bad choices in life. I UNDERSTAND what it is like to have that "absent father void". I also understand what it is like to be a husband trying his best to become "that good father and husband" to his wife. Let's talk about how to get there. Please stay encouraged.
