Welcome! You came here today for a reason. Maybe that’s an individual struggle, a relational conflict, you find yourself stuck in a transition or season of life, or you’re simply searching for ways to balance it all. I will help you understand the “why” and figure out the “how” as together we'll navigate your unique challenges to achieve a life of peace, purpose, and authenticity. My approach is collaboratively tailored to fit you, integrating evidence-based tools that work. We will go at your pace, but I will challenge you when needed. Most of all, you will feel heard, understood, and respected in our time together.
I specialize in working with preadolescents, teens, men, and couples, informed by my own personal journey as a husband of 20 years and father of two sons, with 20 years prior career experience in business, nonprofit, and the creative arts. My approach is practical, solution-minded, and focused on what works for you. There is no one-size-fits-all to therapy.
Deciding to start therapy can be intimidating and takes a lot of courage. It can also be the best decision you will make. Finding the right therapist is also challenging, but it makes all the difference. I’d love to chat with you more to help you determine if we’d be a good fit. Reach out when you’re ready to take the next step.

What will work best for you? That's one of my first goals as we meet together. Models and theories are important, but they don't all work equally for everyone. I prefer an integrated approach that uses several evidence-based, best practices, to find what fits best with you. I also work to stay up-to-date with current research to ensure I am always providing the best experience for you.
