I help clients find relief and coping skills for their reported issues, with a trauma-informed approach that both respects, and safely addresses clients' traumas.

I’ve counseled people in some form or fashion for most of my life. When I was younger, friends came to me with their problems and left our conversation feeling better. Seeing the change in them was moving and made me realize I wanted to do this professionally. However, my journey to becoming a therapist was an unusual one. I was a monk for more than a decade and worked abroad. During that time, I gained a deeper understanding of the human experience and struggle. It shaped me as a therapist and has since helped me identify people’s deeper issues as well as give concrete and practical advice.

I became a therapist out of a love for storytelling and meaning making. Being a human being is not easy, and the stories we tell ourselves change the way we see the world and how we live in it. I come from a social work background and use a person-centered, warm, and nonjudgmental approach in my work. I believe before things can change, it’s important to understand what led to those patterns in the first place and what they do to help; sometimes they are behaviors that may have kept you safe or were learned in an environment that didn’t support you otherwise.

Would it surprise you to know that nearly every client I have ever worked with has asked me the same question? It's true. "Am I crazy?" I tell them all the same thing: "No. Crazy is a feeling--not a diagnosis. You can feel crazy, act crazy, look crazy, do something crazy--but you cannot BE crazy. Maybe you have been wondering if you are crazy? Or if perhaps you are "losing your mind"? I would like to be the therapist who gets to know you, and helps reassure you that you are not crazy or losing your mind, and to help you feel better in general.
