Grief: the deafening silence where you once heard their voice. Your empty chest now cavernously hollow. Missing them so much it’s physically painful. Grief is always hard, but it feels impossible when the loss was complicated, violent, sudden, unexpected, when the relationship was conflicted, or when the one who is gone was supposed to outlive you.

I have immediate availability! Your relationship is stuck and it's wearing you out. You feel like you are going around in circles and the pain and hurt is piling up. You try to communicate but you don’t feel seen or heard. The exhaustion is growing, constantly trying to fix things and getting nowhere. “I didn’t think it you would be this way” you tell yourself. When you met, there was a spark. You felt so attracted to this unique person but now those differences are grating and cause you pain. It’s like you’re speaking different languages, and you just wish your partner could see things your way.

It can be painful and frustrating to feel trapped in a cycle of behaviors, thoughts, or relationships that don't represent the person we want to be. I believe that one of the most challenging things in life is to simultaneously love and accept ourselves as we are while also acknowledging a need or desire for change. I believe that a perspective rooted in faith can help us to do this.

As men, therapy is often perceived as weak, emasculating, soft, or unnecessary. We often feel pressure from family and employers that continues to mount and build over time. We notice our behaviors changing while the latent emotions, pressure, and stress begin to build. Shame, fear, and anger build and become unmanageable. Substance use or compulsive behaviors begin to surface without us recognizing it and evolve in to a inescapable cycle.

I see life as a mosaic of experiences, and we all do the best we can with what we know at the time. But sometimes, anxiety, depression or the simple challenges of daily life can hold people back from living the fullest, best story of their life. My goal as a therapist is to explore and bring to light a person’s inner strengths, so they can overcome their personal obstacles and enjoy better, more productive lives and relationships. Everyone, regardless of life’s stumbles, deserves the best life they can imagine, and my goal is to walk with them and help them along this journey.
