Sometimes men need an empathic, strong male therapist to gain customized, practical tools to build a good life. I help highly-sensitive, highly-intelligent people, including professionals in business, healthcare, the arts, education, emerging adults, and university students. They might have achieved success in some domain and now feel stuck, as past treatment modalities may have been ineffective. Many of these kind, caring, and strong individuals have survived significant trauma; I work to help them regain and improve agency, autonomy, competence, and relatedness through dialectical behavior therapy, teaching and learning, and social entrepreneurship, so they can live full lives with resilience, joy, and peace.

I work on helping young men reclaim their stories and navigate their emotions through the works of Creative arts therapy and talk therapy. I specialize in helping young men with anxiety, depressive, trauma, and anger management. I also have work with those recently influenced by the Manosphere and political trauma.

Creative arts therapy is a humanist tool where we listen to the client and work to find a groove and project that best suits the clients needs and meet them where they are at. We will work together to help find your own voice and break stigma to help find the man you want to be and find your path.

You are the expert of your own life, yet somehow you have lost the thread. My work with you will help you find your way back again. Our work together will likely include a variety of approaches that will be determined by your needs at the time. There may be strategies we will learn, concepts to explore and, sometimes, even homework. This is your time to heal, restore and rebuild yourself. I will be your guide. I am currently licensed in New York, South Carolina and Florida and I am completely online.

I offer free consultations so you can decide for yourself if you think we might be a good fit to work together.

Asking for help can be a tremendously difficult task and you have already taken a great step in your own healing process. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, existential questions, relationship issues or other obstacles life might throw your way, we can define what therapy should look and feel like for you. My approach to therapy relational, person-centered, and exploratory. Treatment may include CBT and mindfulness exercises as tools to improve self-awareness and grounding in the present moment. Examining the relationship between your thoughts, emotions and behavioral patterns will help guide our work together in order to cultivate healing change.
