I believe therapy should be a place where you can show up honestly without fear of judgment. My style is warm, direct, and collaborative. I work with adults who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck, or uncertain about their next step. Many of my clients are men navigating relationships, career/school stress, anxiety/depression, fatherhood, major life transitions, and other challenges. I provide a supportive space to explore what's going on beneath the surface while helping you build practical strategies for moving forward. Let's work together to identify the roadblocks in your life and approach the here and now with clarity and intention.

I view therapy as a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all solution. I draw from evidence-based approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Gottman Method principles for relationship work. Together, we'll identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, develop practical tools for managing challenges, and work toward goals that align with your values and the life you want to build.

The first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and determine whether we're a good fit. We'll discuss what's bringing you to therapy, any relevant background information, and what you hope to gain from our work together. You'll have plenty of space to ask questions, and we'll begin identifying goals and what you hope for our time together.
