Everyone has unrealized goals. Maybe you're having trouble with motivation, or you don't know where to start. Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or depression. Or wondering if you're drinking or using THC too much. Maybe you want to improve your sleep or exercise more. I help people transform the obstacles keeping them from being their best selves. Therapy with me is a collaborative partnership where we work together to get you where you want to be.

I use CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and Motivational Interviewing - two highly effective, evidence-based practices. My experiences confirm the research - they really work well. I help people set goals, get motivated, and make effective plans. Along the way, clients learn new ways to manage emotions, including mindfulness, breathing and other relaxation strategies, if clients are interested. I also can help clients communicate their needs more effectively to people in their life. So much of life and the way we feel about it is relational, and there are specific ways to communicate that tend to be much more effective.

I specialize in treating anxiety, depression and all forms of addiction. I am also skilled with grief, relationships and parenting. I'm especially passionate about helping young men achieve the life they imagine. Many men are finding it very hard to find the connection, purpose and success that human beings crave. I help men find meaning, build satisfying relationships, and create the life they want.

I've been in practice for over fifteen years. I offer free, 15 minute consultations to meet clients and determine if I'm the right fit. Therapy is typically weekly, but can vary depending on need and preference. Clients typically see significant results after 8 to 12 sessions.
