I welcome adolescents and adults who are experiencing mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, mood instability, and trauma. I am particularly attuned to the difficulties men face in understanding, experiencing, and expressing our emotions. I approach my work with compassion and warmth, along with deep respect for each individual’s experience and identities. I primarily use relational and psychodynamic modalities. This means I place an emphasis on the therapeutic relationship, and collaborate with my clients to identify, explore, and change relationship and behavior patterns. I believe a therapist can be a “friendly mirror,” gently guiding us to see and accept all parts of ourselves.

Sex, sexuality, and intimacy are concepts that we spend a lot of time pondering, but have few places or people in our lives where these topics are acceptable to bring up. The truth is everyone has sexual and intimacy concerns, but society doesn’t help us sort this stuff out. Messages about sex are everywhere in advertising, but real honest sex education is lacking. This leaves us to feel that we are isolated and alone. This can cause inner turmoil for people, and I want to create a safe environment where people can discuss their desires, fears, dreams, and beliefs about themselves. I believe that personal growth and self reflection come from support, guidance, and nurturance.

Many of my clients feel uncomfortable or unsatisfied going through their daily lives, though they aren’t quite sure why. This generally manifests into anxiety or depression, feeling disconnected from themselves and others, and not being able to make change. I specialize in helping clients chart a course for enlightenment and self-improvement through conversations about past and current ways of navigating the world , along with building up psychological tools to handle life’s stressors.

For men who are used to being in control, anxiety can feel like something to push past rather than address. But ignoring it doesn’t make it go away. It often builds up over time, impacting your focus, relationships, and overall well-being. I help high-achieving men break out of stress and overthinking, work with emotions in a way that feels productive, and regain a sense of confidence and control.

Quite simply, psychotherapy is about conversations. The conversations we have with ourselves and with others. We often try so many different tactics to live happier more fulfilling lives, and we come to realize that it isn’t always enough. A therapeutic conversation is based on an open and genuine collaboration between client and therapist; a relationship built on trust, honesty, and understanding. As the foundation for good therapeutic work, it’s essential to feel comfortable and cared for. I hope to provide this conversation.

I am drawn to helping people who have dealt with trauma and feel persistent isolation and sadness in their daily lives. By looking at things together a different way, we can navigate a different path. Let’s explore together, like astronauts! By gaining perspective, you can find more opportunities for strength and agency in your daily life.

My goal is to help you make own space to think about things you didn’t know were possible, a safe space for exploration and support you on this path. Making the first step can be intimidating, but we can also go to new places. Contact me to setup a free consultation call to figure out how we can move forward together.
