Choosing therapy is courageous. Examining ourselves honestly can be challenging and uncomfortable, but with the skilled support, attuned compassion, and the collaborative approach of a therapist, positive change emerges for those willing to explore new possibilities.
How Can I Help?
I provide a safe space for support, collaboration, and guidance on how to improve your relationship with yourself, because I believe that all of our relationships—whether it be with a partner, family, friends, work, sex, drugs, your phone, food, etc.—are a reflection of our relationship with ourselves. My focus is with couples and men’s issues around masculinity, purpose, codependency, anger, self-esteem and parenting.
What is My Approach?
In order to help someone, I need to understand their unique familial and cultural history and how they arrived where they are today. I assist clients in identifying how early experiences and relationships impact current relationships to themselves and others. I help individuals reauthor the old, rigid, repetitive, and often negative narratives we tell ourselves that convince us that we are stuck. I also support clients in establishing new patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving that result in more positive outcomes.
