Currently accepting new patients, Saturday and evening appointments available. My practice focuses on working with individuals who are processing significant transitions within their lives, particularly those related to developmental processes such as career change, retirement and family care-giving challenges. With an emphasis on creating meaning and exploring new potentials, our work together will help you act intentionally rather than reacting in response to old patterns that may no longer fit the person you are becoming.

Waitlist for new clients
Many of my clients are successful and thriving in ways that people may see on the outside, but their inner experiences of themselves and how they are in relation to the world and the people in their lives are often one of disconnection and dissatisfaction. Many of these feelings come from a variety of sources such as: anxiety, depression, a disordered relationship with food or one's body, and an estranged experience with oneself. People who want to develop a sense of self-awareness and understanding often find working with me beneficial.

I work with individuals who feel like they are hitting a wall and in need of support with difficult life transitions. These could include embracing parenthood, relational conflict, substance misuse, grief, or uncertainty about the future. My goal is to help you build confidence and feel safe with difficult emotions. We’ll explore where you are getting stuck, what experiences shaped your identity, and what your strengths and limitations are. I also work with couples in conflict to foster stronger connections. I work with all ages, but my speciality is with couples and individuals ages 30 to 40.

I have been in the mental health field since 2014 and have worked with various ages and demographics. With a background that includes being a military child, collegiate athlete, and now a parent myself, I have found that I enjoy working with people who are finding themselves in a time of change. At this time, I am seeing clients 14 and older who need extra support in finding coping skills, navigating symptoms of depression or anxiety, communication skills, relationship challenges, and boundary work among other goals. At this time, I will also be taking a break from couples therapy and will update once accepting new clients.

As a cis, male, Queer-identified clinician, I am particularly interested in working with other male and masculine-identifying individuals on navigating the world in ways that preserve their sense of their own masculine identities, while also acknowledging and working through the very real barriers and obstacles that many men and masculine folks face when it comes to being our best selves. I know all too well that it can be incredibly difficult and scary to take the first step and reach out for help, and I also recognize and admire the bravery that comes with that decision.

Life Is Life-ing! Tired, stressed, angry, and stuck are common feelings that may be causing you significant distress and disconnection from those you love. You want to get back to feeling like yourself again. Or maybe even define a different version of yourself or relationship. It can be challenging to know you need to make a change, but not know how to get there.

Sometimes people see counseling/coaching as a process that could be negative: trying to decipher & share feelings, opening up old wounds, resistance to change. It’s uncomfortable and uncertain to delve deep into these areas of our life. We all want to live “our best lives”. We strive to be financially secure, take care of our physical health through diet & exercise, see the benefit of being social and doing fun things, attempt to engage in meaningful relationships, seek spirituality and a sense of transcendence. But we fail in many of these pursuits when we don't understand our own inner-workings.

Let’s be honest…life throws us in different directions, which can make moving forward even tougher. Does this sound like you: anxious, feeling "unsure", or overwhelmed which leads to other emotions that cause conflict within yourself? Whether you said yes to one or all the above, I want to remind you that you hold more power to make this better than you give yourself credit for.

I am a LICSW with a focus on psychotherapy with adults, children and families. I have been a practitioner for 48 years, in private practice for 12 1/2 years and had been a psychotherapist for 26 years in the Behavioral Health Department at Group Health. While there, in addition to a general caseload that included Medicare patients, I ran a Children's Therapy Group, served on a county-wide child abuse oversight committee, co-chaired an inter-disciplinary case consultation team, and managed an intern program.
