My ideal client struggles with low self-esteem, self-doubt, and negative self-talk, often rooted in past experiences. These internal blocks keep them from reaching their potential in personal, professional, or creative areas. They deeply desire to feel empowered, build confidence, and take meaningful action toward their goals.

In my practice as a therapist I use the research on what works to help my clients get the outcomes they want: better relationships, managed anxiety, less depression and more control over life. I do not limit our work into any single modality but blend a variety of techniques to tailor my approach for each individual. I draw influence from cognitive behavioral, humanistic and dynamic psychotherapy. Therapy is a place to develop and apply philosophy to get to a different place than we are able to get on our own. I’m excited to join you!

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over ten years of experience. As a therapist, I’m not here to judge you or tell you what’s wrong. Instead, I am here to help you uncover your hidden strengths and harness those abilities to address any challenges or roadblocks you may face. You don’t have to do it alone; we can walk this path together.

I believe the most meaningful way to connect is through listening. Each person has a unique and interesting story that should be heard. Perhaps the greatest support we can offer is our undivided attention. I consider it a privilege to provide a safe space where people discover new aspects of themselves.

Couples Counseling, Addiction, and Men’s Issues are my specialty.

I work with men who want results. My approach to therapy is built around first principles, accurate diagnosis, and change; understanding what’s broken, why, and how to fix it. Psychological problems aren’t mysterious entities; they can be mapped, conceptualized, and worked through with the right framework and disciplined effort.

Psychotherapy with me is direct, pragmatic, and oriented toward strength, responsibility, and forward motion. Too much modern therapy pathologizes masculinity or asks men to soften, submit, or endlessly process without progress. I don’t do that. I respect male identity, male drives, and male ways of solving problems, and I use them as leverage for change. I am in California. I prefer to meet in-person. Cash-only.

Like water carving rocks, we are shaped by our surroundings and where we come from. I grew up in rural Alaska surrounded by a vast expanse of towering mountains and large glacial rivers. I worked for many years as a wilderness guide, experiential educator and wilderness therapist. Dramatic seasonal changes in light, temperature, and landscape taught me that stillness exists within the extremes. I work from a perspective that combines modern neuroscience, interpersonal neurobiology, internal family systems, eco therapy and eastern mysticism. Among other things I am a father, carpenter, adventurer and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapist (KAP). Please feel free to reach out for a free 15 min consultation through my website.

In my integrated approach to trauma therapy, I seamlessly weave Brainspotting and evidence-based talk therapy to provide comprehensive support for clients. Drawing on the power of Brainspotting, I guide clients in identifying and processing trauma through the activation of specific “brainspots,” while leveraging the insights and techniques of talk therapy to foster deeper introspection and cognitive reframing. I target both the neurological and psychological aspects of trauma, and facilitate a holistic healing journey. My practice prioritizes creating a collaborative and empathetic space, where clients feel heard, validated, and empowered to navigate their healing process with self-awareness and newfound strength.
