In my practice, I support clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, ​grief, stress, trauma, ADHD, and exhaustion. Life can be hard sometimes and my clients often tell me that they have so much going on in their lives that they’re struggling to manage their emotions. Many of my clients identify themselves as being helpers, healers, caregivers, entrepreneurs, advocates, and empaths and are having a hard time finding balance in their lives. If you’re tired of managing alone and want to find some peace or clarity in your life, or simply want to feel better emotionally, you’ve come to the right place.

Making the decision to ask for help is hard, being a man and asking for help is even harder. The expectations of masculinity have changed- I know I’ve lived it! I am a father, husband, friend and professional who is navigating these expectations-to be a protector and provider, a partner and mentor, an empathetic listener and a high-five celebrator.

My greatest learning is that vulnerability is strength, sharing is courage, and understanding yourself is vital. I will meet you where you are and together, we will figure out what will work for you. I have experience working with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, relationship, career change, divorce/separation, parenting, anger, and trauma (workplace/childhood). Let’s talk.
