I believe that counseling is a collaborative process that is driven by a strong therapeutic relationship. I use an integrative approach with emphasis of cognitive behavioral therapy to address client concerns. I believe in adapting my approach to meet the needs of presenting concerns. I aim to create a safe space for clients to explore their problems, concerns, and experiences. The goal of counseling is to gain insight about presenting concerns and develop or strengthen client’s ability to cope with past, present, and future situations.

There is only one relationship we are guaranteed to have for our entire lives — and that is our relationship to ourselves. I aim to help you make it compassionate and giving, self expressing, and with appropriate boundaries as needed for you to protect your most authentic Self. I believe that all of our behaviors are adaptive; some we’ve just outgrown and they are no longer serving the best interests of our well-being. But they come from an honest place of having to adapt to circumstances which we did not create.

Let's face it: seeking out a therapist can be a daunting task. One of the most important parts of therapy is the therapeutic relationship. What I offer is non-judgmental, validating, and genuine. I offer a space for you to explore and express your emotions, ideas, and behaviors free of judgements or bias. We will work together to come up with solutions and skills to help you feel better and find balance, and hope. It is my belief that everyone can find meaning and fulfillment in their lives, no matter how difficult it may seem.

My goal as your therapist is to develop a healthy and therapeutic environment which will be conducive to facing and overcoming challenges, such as; trauma, grief, identity, anxiety, depression, life transitions, career development, and relationship issues.
Are you feeling frustrated? Stuck? Overwhelmed in your life? Wanting change, but not sure how to go about it? I get it, I’ve been there, and it genuinely...sucks. It doesn’t have to be this way. Those feelings are telling you something, regardless of how unpleasant they may be. I am here to create a nonjudgmental space in order for you to work through those unpleasant feelings, discover their roots, and facilitate the change that you've been looking for in order to alleviate those feelings and work towards the healthier life you have envisioned for yourself. If the status quo is no longer working for you, let's figure out what will.

My work is grounded in crisis intervention, addiction support, and guidance in navigating family and relationship and marital dynamics, I specialize in various areas of mental health such as anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, crisis management, gambling addiction, and men's issues.
Do you worry that you have a substance abuse or gambling problem? Are you a man do you struggle with balancing work, family and personal life. Do you feel alone and unheard? Societal expectations can discourage men from expressing emotions, leading to bottled-up feelings causing communication problems especially in relationships. Drawing from my background in criminal justice as a probation officer I bring a wealth of experience to our sessions around domestic violence, addictions and other legal issues.

In today’s fast-paced world, you're bombarded with endless to-do lists and the relentless voice of your inner critic. It's understandable to feel overwhelmed and frustrated by the pressures of society to feel you need to be everything to everyone. It is easy to lose sight of your true worth as a human, minimizing your strengths, neglecting your own needs and letting your boundaries blur. If that sounds familiar, I encourage you to embrace your imperfections and cultivate self-compassion while understanding your: anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, self worth and how lifestyle transitions play into our complexities.

I don't believe in having an "ideal client," but rather subscribe to Irvin Yalom's idea that the client/clinician relationship is one of "fellow travelers." Therefore, I view it as my responsibility to meet the client where they are in order to begin a journey in which their needs and strengths indicate the direction of therapy. I create a space in which my diverse client-base is inspired to be as truthful and expressive as possible and in which we can begin to pay attention to the client's deepest voice. Moving toward feeling and through repression is crucial to my work, and I believe lasting growth begins here.
