I provide a safe and accepting atmosphere which helps clients feel more comfortable in exploring who they are and who they want to be. I design an individualized treatment plan that fits the specific needs of each client.
I ask clients, “if you had a magic wand how would you use it to change your life?” Responses highlight the gap between what men want and what they have. I help you navigate this gap by identifying/addressing barriers to creating the life you want.

I bring Cog-B & mindfulness skills together in our work, untangling the stuck-thoughts, behaviors, & feelings along with acceptance of the present moment. OCD work is ERP exposure/response prevention together at your pace, never forced.

My foundation is in psychodynamic and relational therapy and I can draw upon other approaches (e.g., CBT, emotion-focused approaches) depending on what the client is needing. I strive to be flexible and adaptive to what clients are needing.
