You’re used to being in control, but when it comes to your emotions, it feels like they control you. Maybe the anxiety or hurt from past experiences keeps you on edge, or your relationship is strained because of anger, withdrawal, or difficulty expressing yourself.
I help men navigate relationship challenges, emotional barriers, and past trauma. Through the use of various trauma-informed techniques I help you gain control over your emotions and reactions. My approach is direct but supportive, helping you address the root causes of your mental health struggles and equip you with tools to manage stress and triggers.

The majority of my experience so far in my career as a therapist has been in trauma, substance use recovery, eating disorder relapse prevention, body image and sex, partnerships and sexual concerns, as well as working with couples, families, and parenting issues. In this experience, especially working with eating disorders and substance use recovery, I have found that what seems to be missing with the recovery process is a sexual recovery component. I feel that who I am, my authenticity, my message, and showing my humanness sets me apart from many therapists trained to be a blank slate for their clients. The work we do in session does not end there and it is not confined to the hour that I actually see them each week.

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.

You’ve likely done a lot of things “right”. From career to relationships, even past therapy – but does something feel off? Maybe you might feel disconnected, burned out, or like you’re performing a role rather than living your life. I specialize in working with men like you who are striving to reconcile their past, find meaning in their present, and create a more fulfilling future. Whether you’re dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, perfectionism, life transitions, or substance issues, therapy can be a powerful space to get out of your head and reconnect with yourself.
