My approach to therapy has its foundation in strengths-based interventions that create emotional safety and facilitate insight and transformation. I draw from a variety of orientations, including client-centered, solution-focused, cognitive-behavioral, dialectical behavioral, positive psychology, mindfulness, and body-based therapies, such as Trauma Sensitive Yoga. I take an ecological approach to therapy, considering each person’s unique history, experiences, and communities.

Hi, I’m passionate about creating spaces where men feel heard and seen. In a society that looks down on mental health care, especially for men, my job is to break down those barriers.

I am especially passionate about de-stigmatizing mental health for men by challenging the idea that vulnerability is weakness. Instead, I view emotional honesty and embodied awareness as sources of resilience and strength.

My approach is warm, compassionate, collaborative, and humorous. I teach skills for emotional regulation. I also use body techniques to release stored trauma, as well as help you befriend your inner critic.

If any of this resonates with you, I invite you to reach out for a free, 15 min consultation!

I specialize in helping men manage anxiety, infidelity, couple’s issues, trauma, and PTSD. I mainly use Solution-Focused Therapy as an approach, a model that focuses on strengths, resilience, and achieving goals. I am also EMDR trained. EMDR or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is an effective therapy for healing trauma, stress, and negative patterns. Using guided eye movements, it helps the brain reprocess distressing memories, reducing their emotional impact. I also sub-specialize in those in the first responder profession.

Change is inevitable in life. My work as a counselor helps you make positive changes in your life and understand any barriers to making progress.
Oftentimes, a precursor to change is strife, difficulty, and confusion about what we truly want. Discerning what we desire – what fills us with vitality- is the work of psychotherapy. It can be difficult to know what we want if we’re stuck in habits, relationships, or patterns that no longer serve us or exist only to help us numb ourselves. Our minds crave novelty, but they also desire stability. But when stability turns to rigidity turns to stagnation – it becomes time for compassionate self-examination.

“The world is changing at a rate faster than our ability to adapt to that change.” – Astro Teller

If this is true, no wonder you’re frustrated, exhausted, getting stuck in numbing and escaping behaviors, and wondering if this is all there is to modern life. The demands of life (relationships, marriage, parenting, career, personal health, mental health) are more than you can handle and you often are just trying to make it to the end of the day.

I specialize in working with men and helping them get relief from everyday demands, so they can go deep in their most important relationships.
