I've been in the field of social services for over 25 years, and I've had the good fortune to work in many different settings and with a vast array of populations. As a therapist I create environments that help people feel safe and supported and assist people in building motivation towards positive change. My clinical work is grounded in research and evidence-based practices, and I always work at a pace that is tailored to your unique situation and goals. My approach to therapy is warm, individualized, compassionate, and flexible. I'm a humble man with a good sense of humor, and I'm sensitive yet direct when I communicate.

Finding the right fit with your therapist may not always be easy, but it’s entirely worth it. Your success in treatment depends on the work you put in and the relationship with your therapist - that’s why I really focus on our connection first and foremost. Maybe in another life we could be pals, but I am more honored to be a part of your therapy journey!

You're slamming the alarm clock; it was another night of broken sleep. You're feeling drained and wishing for a moment of peace and happiness. You are constantly giving to others when you're running low and rarely have time for yourself. You feel pressures and stress piling up and weighing on your shoulders. You want to reach out for help but are scared of being vulnerable and a burden to others. At night when you lay down to sleep, the thoughts are racing and the worries return. All you want is understanding and support.

My ideal client is someone who has always put others first—whether as a caregiver, a parentified adult, or a chronic people-pleaser—yet finds themselves struggling to meet their own needs. They may feel overwhelmed by anxiety, lost in the challenges of aging, or curious about exploring alternative healing modalities like cannabis but unsure where to start. Their goal is to reclaim their sense of self, find balance, and achieve a greater sense of peace and fulfillment. They want to break free from the patterns that have kept them stuck and are ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment.

**Free 30-min Video Consultation** Being in the circus taught me that juggling too many balls in the air can lead to feeling like you're always picking up the pieces rather than enjoying the show. While our emotions float up and down, we start applying binary labels of "good" (happy) and "bad" (anger, sadness, anxiety) that our systems (e.g., US Society, Family, Culture) has assigned. Improve self-awareness of our emotions, thoughts, and the stories we tell ourselves about our worth internally, with others, and in the world. Change the Narrative you've internalized through identifying, observing, respecting, and accepting emotions.

Maybe you woke up today & said, "shit, I really need to find a therapist." Maybe you've said that many mornings. Perhaps you find yourself repeating the same cycles and wanting to stop, yet you keep spinning. Cycles of all types - anxiety, depression, self-sabotage, addiction, trauma and more. It leaks into different areas of your life - work, relationships, self-esteem...and it’s exhausting. Maybe you feel stretched thin, like butter scraped over too much bread. You want to feel more at peace, to have better relationships, and to understand more yourself. Luckily, therapy can help get you there.

We provide a safe, private, and non-judgmental space, allowing clients the freedom to express themselves. It also important to understand that enlisting help is a sign of strength as it takes a tough person to admit when they need the support of a mental health professional.

I am a couples counselor and have been able to help many relationships that have often been neglected for too long. The approach that I use does not assign blame to either person.

Online Therapists

Is online therapy as effective as in-person?

Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?

One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialized therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.

Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?

Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.

Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?

The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
