He specializes in the treatment of anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and life transitions, and provides individual, couples, and family therapy, as well as psychological assessment services.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect a supportive, collaborative, and non-judgmental environment during their first session. I believe that each person has the strength, resilience, and capacity within themselves to overcome life’s challenges. The initial session focuses on getting to know you, understanding your concerns, and exploring your goals for therapy. Together, you will begin identifying the most effective therapeutic approach to help you build insight, regain confidence, and move toward meaningful and lasting change
